ANNOUNCEMENT: Ghosts Begone!!

Manifisto

hello friends and gentleorbs! you might have noticed some strange behavior recently in our beloved subforum. spectral appearances, rattling chains, snacks going missing, that sort of thing. I don't want to scare anyone, but I think we've been the victim of a haunting . . . by not one but two malevolent presences, full of the mischief and hatred we typically associate with coupons & deals. what's more these ghosts seem to have illegally appointed themselves with IK powers, which is decidedly impertinent!

enough is enough! I'm sorry to use harsh language but ghosts are now ILLEGAL in byob, at least until they learn to behave themselves. so to any banshees, wraiths, and phantasms that may be lurking about, you are hereby asked to please exit the subforum quietly and above all QUICKLY. trouble us no more, maybe you'll find release from your eternal torment by posting in e/n or taking up a hobby or something.

thanks in advance for your cooperation!

Your coupon is futility and your deal is demise. This forum belongs to the spirits now.
Everyone please, moving forward, make sure to ONLY post while wearing a ghastly white shroud, or while transparent, or while moaning eerily and shaking shackles. Failure to comply will be punished, in this forum or the great undiscovered forums beyond the veil of death.

Not too sure about this posting while wearing a shroud thing. Seems a lot like posting while wearing pants, which is very unbyob.

Actually bustin is really bad and dangerous, you shouldn't bust. And you should be afraid of no ghosts. I mean you should be afraid of... ghosts.

I'm posting while wearing a shroud except my shroud is a Slanket, which I think is a loophole.

a lot of these bustin' manuals I'm reading emphasize the importance of focusing on the ghost's experience

I hope someone with a big loving vacuum cleaner shows up to suck up these god-forsaken ghosts and send them straight back to hell where they belong.

I am not personally a ghost (I am a robot, made of meat), but I understand that it may eventually be my destiny to become a ghost (made of ectoplasm). I cannot support any anti-ghost rhetoric in this or any other forum.

The illegalization of things ghostly must not be tolerated in this forum!

if you do it right, you can sort of suck the ghost out of the haunted location like sucking snot out of a baby's nose with one of those little bulb syringe things

rmm your compassion is very byob but this is really for the protection of the ghost, so they don't hurt themselves (or someone else)

This kind of hateful rhetoric is unacceptable, but I suppose so-called "mods" think of themselves as "above" things like morality or common decency. But it's fine. This kind of thing shakes out in the afterlife, and well. The only things these two tin-pot dictators will be shaking in the afterlife are CHAINS.

BYOB belongs to the undead now and in short order will be renamed "Boo-YOB" or "Boo-B," one or the other.

Ok gang, I'll admit it - I am a ghost. That's right, sometimes I post in BYOB and then get distracted and do other stuff and forget to :justpost:

I ghost the posts, and for that I am sorry.

Hello! This is the ghost, Ghouled Mango. Mods may probate me but they cannot contain me. I am speaking through this frail mortal vessel to say: BYOB IS FOR GHOSTS ONLY. Please relax and chill if you are a ghost. What's your favorite funny way to haunt a bungalow? Do we smoke weed or does it pass through us? Is living a crime, and if so, is death pets? This is a ghost only zone. Thank you.

I'm not a ghost but I am a stabby little guy with a stabby little knife and also I got killed a few times and came back anyway so oh no I'm actually wondering if that does qualify me as a ghost :ohdear:
