so, is it unanswerable/unaskable? let's hurt people. or tell em you love em.

take that, pinefox, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

oh, don't think i'm goin' first.

jess, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

My fave posters in no order : Mark S, Pinefox, Omar, Billy Dods, Norman, Ned, Tom, Dave Q, Tim H, Sundar, Robin, Tom.

Dr. C, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I wuv Mark S.

RickyT, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

mark s ruined my life

mark s, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

okay, and it's violating the rules or the geneva convention or something to post your favorites and not at least one person who you don't like. (so far, mark is the only one who has followed the rules.)

jess, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I can't answer this thread because a moderator should be above such petty preferences. I do have a handful of leasts and a good few handfuls of mosts though. I will just say that I like the fact that Dr C wuvs me so much he listed me TWICE though.

Tom, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

he WUVS you. he wants to have a thousand of your BABIES.

jess, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

i'm sorry. sleep deprivation has obviously eaten away at my mind.

jess, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Jess is my least favourite ILE poster ever. Also a ho.

Tom, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Naturally I liked Stevie T. But he has gone. Oh, Stephen, Stephen / You have gone / and we don't know where / or why / ohhh-ohhh [etc]

I still think the question has some unanswerability about it (cf. answers so far).

A thing about Tom E: he combines quality with quantity. Some of my favourite posters post rarely (but well), some people post a lot (and I don't find them so interesting) - but Tom E posts a LOT, but is almost always interesting too. So he wins something for that rare combination.

the pinefox, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

obviously it would be grossly inconsiderate to list myself as my favourite poster, but I do think the dunedin contingent is doing well. throw us a friggen bone here

Menelaus Darcy, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

dunedin = the hackney of the southern seas
i am rainy's stalker, constrained only by oceans and extreme laziness

mark s, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

i knew i would end up SOMEONES least favorite. i just...didn't..::choke::...think it would be you, tom. ::sobs like a jane austen character alone on the moors. or something.::

jess, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

The Dunedin crowd is awesome if only for almost always proving me with something mad to read in the mornings. They post while we sleep and hopefully we do the same for them.

Tom, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Dunedin = ??

the pinefox, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Dunedin is a place in New Zealand which has the highest posters-per- capita ratio of anywhere on Earth. Maryann, Duane, Rainy, Lady Di, Menelaus Darcy, and several others who I've forgotten because they don't have names as memorable as "Menelaus Darcy". How big is Dunedin actually?

Tom, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

mark s, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Always feel a touch uncomfortable with these faves/non-faves lists. Everyone not mentioned feels left-out/ignored. Nonetheless Dave Q gets most on my tits (music-wise), but I like the fact he makes me think/re-think. Ronan's 'Dutch cunts' comment annoyed me, but I've grown to like his 'I'm still 18 + your not' style. I miss Kate whose honesty + openess could be reckless but she could really write and was excellent fun. Robin Carmody's thoughtful posts always intrigue me, as do fellow Yorkshire man Gareths. Ed's photo left me gobsmacked, and I was surprised no one commented how beautiful madchun is. Fellow Weimar-fan Anthony is adorable, Omar is lost soul brother, Melissa W's refusal to like 'Vespertine' only troubles me because I have great respect for her taste, Tom asks by far the best questions, suzy is well cool + everyones favourite mark s. well deserves his popularity for his total lack of aloofness for one so gifted with words.

Actually there are not that many here I don't like

stevo, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I like: Katie G, Ricky T, Chris/Cabbage, Tom, NY Ally, DG (well... he's an Ilford boy!) Jess, Menelaus Darcy, Rainy, all the ILE LINYC cru. Sarah Starry.

I tell the worst jokes on ILE, so I'll put myself down as worst poster. Just to save any fights.

Will McKenzie, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Melissa W's refusal to like 'Vespertine' only troubles me because I have great respect for her taste

Reminds me of how troubled I get when someone I think has good taste doesn't like Radiohead.

Melissa W, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

>>> I was surprised no one commented how beautiful madchun is.

Only Ally C is allowed to do that.

the pinefox, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I like Cabbage and Madchen best. But then I would. None of you know who I am, do you?

Markx, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I do.

RickyT, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

But do you wuv me, Richard?

Markx, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Stevo, you old smoothie. You are my second favourite, after Ally C.

Madchen, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I only wuv you when you play Ray Of Light.

RickyT, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

i wuv you all cos you make me larff!

katie, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

>>> Stevo, you old smoothie. You are my second favourite, after Ally C.

Obviously I was wrong.

the pinefox, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I don't wuv you when you play Ray of Light... unless everyone keeps dancing of course. I actually wuv everyone - don't have anyone I dislike. The LINYC posse rock the proverbial house. All of them!

Dry Eyes, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Other really good AND prolific poster = Nicky D.

the pinefox, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I do, Tom, I do.

Dr. C, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

babies...i knew it!

jess, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I'm in love with Nude Spock.

toraneko, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I'm in love with Nude Spock.

I was kind of hoping someone hated me.

toraneko, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

PF, do you think there's any way you could work your Betty Blue joke into this thread? Stevie T been and gone? I feel like an outcast at life's Stevie T convention. My favourite is whoever recommended beard trimmers. I haven't got one yet, but I've been ogling them in shop windows. My other favourite is Starry Amazingness.

Peter Miller, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Which joke is that?

I know what you mean - you are always following in his flaming footsteps.

the pinefox, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Oi, Will - I tell the worst jokes on ILE - everyone knows that. My favourite poster is either Anthony - for spelling hilarity - or RickyT for tube based info.

Anyone who knows me will know who my least favourite poster is....

Pete, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Wheeler and Mike "Tim Curry" Hanley are both my favorite and least favorite posters, all at once, the tarts. Actually they're just my favorite.

I'm not going to list my least favorite but let's say he gets my fucking goat just by existing and if the anthrax got him I wouldn't be sad for a second. That's how strongly I feel about it. Everyone else I like though, even Ethan.

Ally, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Pete said: 'Oi, Will - I tell the worst jokes on ILE'

I say: 'check out the 'nice guys finish last' thread. I warn you, it isn't pretty...'

Will McKenzie, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

The only person I truly hate is pretty obscure and has probably only posted about 10 times, so I won't mention him.

As far as favorites...I know I'd leave somebody out so I won't bother listing them.

Talk about yr cop-out posts, eh?

Nicole, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I like Stevo (of course), Dr C. Weller, Nathalie natuurlijk, Ethan, Suzy, Gareth, DJ Martian, Nitsuh (if he keeps his post within reasonable length ;), the Polish bastard son of Zappa and by law Mr Sinker. Ah well and countless others really.

I have no intense dislikes. After awhile one gets used to everyone's style, likes and dislikes.

Omar, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

My favourite IL* posters would be either Nitsuh or Pinefox. They always seem to know a lot more than they're letting on.

I don't have a least favourite IL* poster. I find it irritating when people post with the sole purpose of showing how much cleverer/better connected/more cutting edge they are than other people. No names, no pack drill.

Andrew Williams, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

It's OK Pinefox, anyone can say she's beautiful. It's undeniable fact. I really do make myself sick sometimes.

Ally C, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

So I've heard. But I think you can get help, now that you're owning up to the problem. That's the crucial first stage, really.

the pinefox, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I love you all.

DG, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

i hate yas all

Geoff, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Damn it, Omar! My cover's blown. How did you know I was wearing a Peacock suit and white socks. I'm off to polish my scooter now. (Sings) "Uh-huh, Oh Yeh..."

Dr. C, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I like DG because he likes the Strokes.

bnw, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

damnit! why dont you people hate me more?!

jess, Thursday, 18 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

all around favorite of all time would be omar for both posting style and brohood. grady, chaki, crut, hoos, sunny & PP: y'all are my true bros and i love you too. strictly dealing with actual ilx posts, nabisco and j0hn d my favorites.

roxymuzak, Saturday, 31 May 2008 20:37 (seventeen years ago)

re: least favorite, gabbnebb and i have b33fed in the past, but after the fallout of the Krackel Kontroversy earlier in the year he's been kind of a bro tbh

Curt1s Stephens, Saturday, 31 May 2008 20:40 (seventeen years ago)

Hunt3r is fantastic. Omar Little I think hates me but he's pretty amazing.

Mark C, Saturday, 31 May 2008 20:46 (seventeen years ago)

i don't understand most of the beefs that the americans i like pursue with the brit crew, but that's probably because i have met most of the brits in person

roxymuzak, Saturday, 31 May 2008 20:50 (seventeen years ago)

i mean when i hear that im just like "what! mark and omar should be pals, they are top dudes"

stevienixed, Saturday, 31 May 2008 21:07 (seventeen years ago)

ilx is a beautiful anthill work of art thank you everyone absolutely for joining in - particularly those not mentioned - thank you. i could easily write a paragraph on each ilx user - this would likely be a better use of my time than the current system.

my favorite poster has been left off this list - they dont deserve to be included in such public enemy cassette tape fold out litany like theyre kid n play or whatever.

Ah, I thought I spotted his pic on some WDYLL thread, but I wasn't totally sure. Good to know you're still around, Matt.

Tuomas, Sunday, 1 June 2008 10:40 (seventeen years ago)

I knew about Matt C WAY before I knew about ILX. He used to write cool reviews (an XTC and a Gomez stand out as being close to my heart) for some WRC-related site, and I fantasised about being the next Mark Prindle or Cap'n Marvel or Adrian Denning a long time before I discovered this place.

On the same note I wanna give shouts to everybody else who's put up with my mean-spirited shit with good nature and aplomb. We scare becos we care, right?

Noodle Vague, Sunday, 1 June 2008 11:24 (seventeen years ago)

My favourite posters, outside those I know in person (ie fuckloads of you) are the ones who are all over the Lost thread, followed by those who are all over the football threads.

Matt DC, Sunday, 1 June 2008 12:43 (seventeen years ago)

Most fav: Well, let's pretend I copied and pasted a whole bunch of names here like other people have.

Least fav: The Reverend, because he's a dumbass butthead that doesn't appreciate excellence and entertainment.

King Boy Pato, Sunday, 1 June 2008 12:54 (seventeen years ago)

Actually, I'm going to vote gabnebb as my most fave because his complaining to the mods about me for a pretty weak Jewish joke has been the funniest thing posted on ILX so far this year.

King Boy Pato, Sunday, 1 June 2008 12:56 (seventeen years ago)

Fuck all the rest of y'all.

Noodle Vague, Sunday, 1 June 2008 13:05 (seventeen years ago)

Favourites: Everyone on ILG (which is a beautiful little example of what ILE should really be like, everyone's funny and nice and interesting and they stay on topic and never get all meta). Plus the Lost and Doctor Who thread gangs. Plus anyone I'm facebook friends with.

Least Favourites: 77ers.

And anyone who happens to fit into both lists just gets h8ted, I'm afraid.

Least Favourites: 77ers

^^^ Enemies list.

Noodle Vague, Sunday, 1 June 2008 13:33 (seventeen years ago)

PS Hands up anyone who hasn't Ctrl-F'd this thread?

lol yeah right.
I'm just happy not to be on anyone's least fav list yet, but I haven't been around long so I've still got time to incriminate myself!

I was pretty wary of this thread initially but it's turned out to be just one awesome series of high fives, so I'm lovin' it.

Um, so far I've really enjoyed posts by, hmmm: Scott Seward is always fun, M@tt He1g3son has been refreshingly polite and reasonable, Ned and Dan are an awesome duo, Abbott's a hoot, I always like it when Nabisco gets all wound up, jh0shea seems like a bro, Tuomas is pretty excellent. Honestly I'm forcing myself to stop here becuase I could just go on and on. This is a pretty great place when it doesn't completely blow.

Least favorite: Can't really say. I haven't made any enemies that I know of yet and I think every person here has been guilty at some time or another of having been a pedantic little jerk. Well, except for maybe Geir Hongro who I've never seen be anything but completely friendly, even at his most contentious (which is OFTEN because he's managed to settle on a set of opinions entirely opposed to every single person on this board. I find that to be very, very impressive considering that the collective opinions here are so thoroughly varied and comparatively accepting.)---so no one sticks out yet.

Oh god, sorry guys, I'm at that point of sleep dep where my brain is all gummed up and broekn, yet I can't shut up...

I'm fond of people in general.

Aside from those I actually know Jaq, Mr Piuma, M. White and Aimless hold a special place in my heart/liver, though. But then so do many others. I've always wanted to meet the various other Matts. I quite fancy watching a Test with young master jagger, also.

As to least. I don't know that I have the energy. As you were.
