idea for remember blue ruler - your thoughts ?

Post by spm97 » Mon Apr 14, 2008 12:21 pm

Everyone,
It's been close to four years since the ville lost blue ruler. I was thinking about ways to remember him that all villians could participate in, and what does everyone think about having a standard <tag> that everyone can use for the month of may to remember him by ?

I was thinking something like -RBR- for "Remember Blue Ruler" or something like that ...

Thoughts ? What do the 4 main guilde leaders think of the idea ? Are they ok with a double-tag for this reason ?

That's a great idea, Spam. Everyone could drop their 'normal' tags for a while. Kind of black arm band type of thing.

What about some kind of memorial game? A TFC fun night/match or something? I didn't know him, so I don't know if he was around or into DoD, &c.

What have y'all done in the past?

I remember playing with Blue Ruler in Day of Defeat. I believe it was him who coined the phrase "Quit flappin yer yap", am I correct on that?

I always thought it would be cool if one of our Ville map makers slipped a pic of him in somewhere like an easter egg.

I agree - adding a hidden pic (like in the spawn room) would be cool.

I was hoping more people would respond with suggestions or ideas. Maybe this part of the forum isn't the best place for people to see this....

The Blue Ruler and TriggerHappy bots are at the maximum abilities you can set for bots.

Hm, that makes me wonder if I should still feel bad for getting killed by them..

WHen I played TFC a few times, i remember thinking 'I hope no one knows that bots are kicking my @$$!' Maybe that's not so unusual :P

Blue was one of the original three members of USV and i know if this was someone else were talking about, he'd be the first to do something in thier honor...

I personally like the -RBR- tag idea myself and will be wearing it. i will also let the rest of USV know and see how they feel about it...

I'll take it to the eva forum and see if I can get buy in from all the eva'ers.

Can someone from TVR and TVB do the same ?

abiscuit brought this post to our attention in the TVB forum. Great gesture spam. We encourage everyone to celebrate Blue in their own way, be it with this tag or what have you.
I have a butt and you do too. Let's be friends.

I was not a member of TheVille when Blue Ruler and TriggerHappy were with us. I can see they touched the hearts of alot of people here. I would be proud to change the =C4= tag to -RBR- I can see that he was a vary special person in a messed up world. Is there a sig specialest (l3eeron) who could make a signature for everyone to use in memory of him? Just for the month? The people here at TheVille.org are a great group of people. Remembering those who paved the way for all of us is the right thing to do................. :cry:

Blue Ruler

I never even knew the man
Blue Ruler the tag was worn
A lot of folks through out The Ville
Remember him and morn

It’s been so many years I’ve heard
Since the Lord took him away
Do you have an idea
So we can remember him today

You do not need to know someone
To see that they were special
The life they lived the lives they touched
Is summed up in a nutshell

REMEMBERED

RIP Blue Ruler

-RBR-Renegade JB-RBR-
