Since this morning you've all given yourselves pats on the back and been fed no doubt, so I'm assuming the mood has somewhat perked up.
Now, as b3ta's leader, I am often asked what it is that b3ta needs in order to improve.
Now this isn't going to be some CLOSE QOTW AS IT'S SHIT thread. You all seem to turn those back on me for no reason.
What this can be is an open discussion on what YOU, the ugly, want to see on b3ta in the future.
Here's a chance to show off in front of the single mothers again, because everybody reads a JMG post.

A VOTE FOR JMG IS A VOTE AGAINST THE FAT SWEATY MESS OF INTERNET CULTURE.

thinks he is the people's hero of b3ta. I'd like to see proof tantamount to this. Your followers are lessening by the day, I'm sure as a consequence of this JMG. All words and no action...this does not bode well.
Oh and more fluffeh kittehs please.

Newer b3tans as such struggle with the fun of old, and over the years, as people with thick rims have attempted to turn this into an AOL style chatroom with best friends and b4shes, I've remained an impartial leader of the people.
Let's not turn this into another thread where people shout at me because I'm popular, yet don't show up at your popular bar-placed meet and greets. That looks silly.
Plus I don't understand these dwindling numbers we speak of. Has there been another group motion to ignore horrible, horrible JMG?
I give it a week. I'm very popular.

I didn't follow you to the big board did I. Can I be on your list now please?
Also, what's your favourite colour and do you prefer a pleated or flat front trouser?
( , Thu 12 Feb 2009, 15:48, Reply)

We've probably discussed this.
Please don't reply. At least not until I set up that "Pay-per-Reply" service I'm thinking of starting up.
( , Thu 12 Feb 2009, 15:49, Reply)

less of that wobbling please, you have followers who look up to you and I don't want them getting upset too. The world can only cope with so much wobbling.
Now I'm pretty sure, given that it's called the "THE JMG LIST OF APPROVED, INTERESTING B3TANS" that you must have some sort of control over it. Also it's in your profile.
So, in reference to this, I'm prepared to sever all contact with your good self in order to be on this list of yours.
Also, please let me know what trouser you prefer, I need some new ones and I need appropriate guidance from someone with as much sartorial opinion as you.

Surely such a thing doesn't exist. Or if it did, how did JMG end up with it?

The internet has some advice for you. Please study it closely, there will be a quiz afterwards to make sure you understood it.

B3ta was built on self generated content!

we've seen that one before. The internet moves so quickly you have to be ready to adapt much better than that. New stuff please!

Your link doesn't either.
Read my post again, slowly (it might help you to split the words into smaller segments), and try again.

but seeing as a large majority of the planet live in abject poverty and I am pretty sure that Amazon tribes do not have wifi ...
Deos everyone really read your posts?

as you failed to answer my question, yet tried to patronise me at the same time.
JMG for minister of fucktardlyness.
( , Thu 12 Feb 2009, 15:52, Reply)

As you didn't use a question mark.
You see, people have to UP the banter when it's aimed my way.
I'm very good at it.
( , Thu 12 Feb 2009, 15:54, Reply)

and therefore did not require a question mark. She said "I would like to know the reason why JMG
thinks he is the people's hero of b3ta. I'd like to see proof tantamount to this."
Which is strictly speaking a pure statement, but the way it was phrased implies an open question to which she would obviously like a reply.
Sadly I fear it is you who must up their banter. 3/10 could do better.
( , Thu 12 Feb 2009, 15:59, Reply)

But kudos on defending the female on the internet at such speed.
3/10

Too busy doing real life work to get in the middle of that.
I'm still waiting for the answer to my trouser question though.

He wants you to take a dislike to him. He's being obtuse just to provoke a reaction - I don't really give a frig to be honest, it's a shame that his obvious writing talent isn't put to better use.
Anyway, what did you guys have for lunch?
( , Thu 12 Feb 2009, 15:55, Reply)

Yet I never go along and meet any of you people at these b4sh things.
I think this speaks wonders for the ability of those who don't take everything I say, and everything they see on the internet, so seriously.
Amazingly, somebody will find argument with this.
..and it'll be claimed I'm the one looking for arguments.
It's the typical British mentality to kick down what is on top. It's just I take a lot of kicking.
I'm very much at the top table of b3ta.
( , Thu 12 Feb 2009, 15:59, Reply)

If you're so popular, where are your devoted followers? Or do you need to recruit more now?
( , Thu 12 Feb 2009, 16:01, Reply)

It's not a clan I run here!
If anything, with each reply I get on here, I appear more popular.
Which will really frustrate the genuinely serious on here. Which is a bit silly.
It's other people who can refer to my fan club on here..

No, not your supple, ample bosom, nor your comely ankles.
It's that you seem to divide your time quite equally between posting on B3ta and blogging about posting on B3ta.
Being able to do both in the third person makes me want to feel your helmet thrusting firmly past my tonsils.
Feel free to make out I'm angry, showing off for the girls or trying to make you cry on t'internet if it makes you happy.
( , Thu 12 Feb 2009, 16:01, Reply)

But I've heard of this bent for attention style banter on /talk.
I'll have it known I'm dead against it. I've even got the support of /talk's top queer, Moohalaa on the issue.
I'm an equal rights winner.
( , Thu 12 Feb 2009, 16:06, Reply)

One can only measure the world by one's own experience, so naturally you are confused looking for the references you expect.
I also suspect the lady doth protest too much.
I fear another blog entry coming on. Don't you think it's about time you went out in the fresh air, JMG? You might even see some girls en route.

See, there's barely anybody taking it too seriously.
It might kick off when they read this, mind.
That's how internet comedy works.

You are taking it the most seriously, by far!

I feel my point is best gotten across by the replies, there.
Well done me. Another success for common sense.

Oh internet. JMG always ends up coming out on top.
( , Thu 12 Feb 2009, 16:41, Reply)

Oh Internet, why do you assume I hate you so? Why must you get so angry and angst ridden as soon as you see me answer?
And when, oh when will you understand why I'm laughing?
( , Thu 12 Feb 2009, 16:44, Reply)

My point is proven, there.
:(
That's very unfair of you to bounce to that conclusion.
Apologise!
Common sense is romping to victory yet again.

It was not the Internet's intention to upset you. It just sometimes moves so very fast, it can seem a little brusque.
Today's celebrity it tomorrow's rick-roll.
If you're going to play with us, you're simply going to have to grow thicker skin, Internet.
Please, just move on.
( , Thu 12 Feb 2009, 16:52, Reply)

I really don't think I want to talk to someone so opposed to telling me his favourite colour and who won't advise me on the old flat fronted versus pleated conundrum.
I may put him on ignore and then tell everyone about it.

In the wake of being called an "ugly loner" myself and seeing frequent references to presumed appearances of qotw/off-topic types, I bring you something a little recherche from the b3ta wiki:

Comment as you see fit (or potato-headedly frightening)..

... or is JMG a striking resemblance to Alan Carr?
( , Thu 12 Feb 2009, 22:28, Reply)

Is all a little bit unsettling.
I don't often get onto B3TA, and the internet in general, because I have to work for a living and have a social life.
Is'nt wanting to be B3TA's leader a little bit like Randall P. McMurphy wanting to be in charge of all the loonies in "One flew over the cuckoo's nest"?
As I say, I'm not here often and therefore may have failed to pick up on any subtle nuances which may nudge this thread into the post-ironic.
Scarily, however, irony is my most developed sense and I can't detect any.
Buffoon.
