Even though I agree with Frank's decision, I still feel a bit blue to see this side of the forum go. If it wasn't for the coffee room, Aveu and Roi would of never of been created, and that means many more hours of practicing for me- but I had a blast, so it more than makes up for it!

This part of the forum really allowed you to peer into the mindset of your peers (Ah! A riddle juxtaposed with jest!) sometimes for the best, and sometimes for the worst, but always with mirth, frolic, jest, mock, and things to learn.

I am in full agreement with the above, alas, continue with jest and this place shall never see the end!

Hark!

so clever - I love those guys.. I must admit.

Were you that pooping dog character too?

They were by far the best sockies. You certainly deserve credit!! Thanks for the laughs.

They were great Crash! Loved them both.

honestly Crash, the posts by Roi and Aveu have been the only that I can think of that have made me laugh out loud.
There may have been one or two over the years, but yours consistently had me laughing.

Although by my own admission, sometimes they got dangerously close to becoming annoying!

Here's the scoop behind the scenes:

Aveu came first, and he was always set in one manner of speech, and in order to mock how much importance some people affix to non-important things, I would mention how a word choice or perhaps even a number choice seemed to be of so much value, while flowering it up with fancy language. In truth, the subject matter was trite, but it came off otherwise.

With both Aveu and Roi, I tried to never stir up trouble, I was there mainly for enjoyment. Although at times, if provoked, they indeed had to bite back.

To make a thematic connection, upon the downfall of Aveu, I had the Hugo quote "Il tombe enfin!...et se releve roi" , and then came Roi! Roi was a mix of Aveu and often strayed from his manner of speech, but something was always there.

Most people saw the humor behind it all, but I am sure I might of angered a few!

Also, it was surprising I was able to completely avoid detection. I doubt anyone under the sun knew who Aveu was, and even Roi. (Although I started dropping some hints later on)

I commonly adapted the British way of spelling things, like humour instead of humor, in order to further avoid detection.

I might of been the "don't you agree guy" too. " But I'm not telling.

We are mutual parties in our agreement, are we not? Indeed, we agree!

Naw, doesn't feel like me. Or maybe...
