the actor

[Andrew Bohan]

once upon a time, there was an actor, and he was very good looking and popular. he made many movies over the years and they were all major hits. women screamed whenever they saw him and men wished they could be like him.

then as time went by he got older and less attractive, and his movies weren't as good anymore, so he retired.

20 years later, a studio, remembering this great actor, asked him to come out of retirement to act in one last movie. he agreed and the movie was produced. It wasn't as bad as his last movies, but still not as good as his early movies.

then the government had the actor executed immediately.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaa?

[Andrew Bohan]

ohhh kenny is on the right track. it's not a riddle exactly, but it's not what it seems.

[Var]

Mr T? lol__

[monkey7]

not our governor Arnold? T1 came out in 90s, but he only made a few good movies

[Andrew Bohan]

T1 came out in 1984...


anyways, don't take the story so literally, think more analogously

[blu808]

Is there any poo involved?

[Anto]

can I have a hit of the crack you are smoking

it must be some good stuff

[Andrew Bohan]

only the best

[jessfx]

O_o um. ok. hah.

[TheSquidd]

OHHHHHHH DUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH










Chuck Norris.

[Andrew Bohan]

[SochBAT]

Casper Van Dien.

If its not him. He should die anyways.

Or FF lead actor, paul walker.

[ALTRNTV]

It can't be Chuck Norris.

then the government had the actor executed immediately.

Chuck Norris cannot be killed.

[Daniel.]

I'm gonna go out on a limb here... but i bet it's a car.

[i8yourfwd]

Wow, after finally figuring out it (talking to andrew on AIM) It's a very true statement, and has been happening alot in front of your very own eyes :)

It's all symbolism, think outside literal terms when figuring out the meaning. ;)

[Andrew Bohan]

I'm gonna go out on a wing here... but i bet it's a car.

still wrong, but heading the right direction

[SochBAT]

Sorry to be the bearer of badnews, but sorry ThatGuy, you're fired.

[ThatGuy]

Fired? I think not. I'll never leave Zilvia. Muahahahahahahahahahahahah!

On another note. Andrew, just explain WTF you're talking about. :D

[TheSquidd]

Is it car modification? lol I duno.





It could be Chuck Norris, if you think of executed as activated!

[Andrew Bohan]

no, it's not chuck norris. the actor is not even a person, real or imaginary.

[OdessaS13]

is it a 240sx?

[Andrew Bohan]

the actor is not a physical object, but it is an object nonetheless

actor = army
movies=war
older...time goes by...vietnam. horrible right?
20 years later...1976....9/11....about 20 years later, army comes back into another war. not doing great, but not bad. am i on the right track? haha.

[Andrew Bohan]

your subject matter is way off, but it's the right kind of thinking.

[CaoBoY]

just spill the beans!
so you are saying that something great comes out, some company, product, culture, whatever, and everybody loves it. time goes on, no one really cares about it. then people try to 're-invent' the stuff, bring it back out blah blah, and then the government some how shuts it down right? am i RIGHT?! haha

[Andrew Bohan]

nope, not it

[CaoBoY]

is it zilvia.net?

[Andrew Bohan]

getting there

[ALTRNTV]

Nissan?:eek3d:

[CaoBoY]

is it user/moderator ThatGuy?

[ThatGuy]

Hahahaha, why do I keep getting called out in this Thread? The government has not executed me! :rofl:

Seriously, explain the damn riddle already!!!!

[CaoBoY]

maybe you are the gov. that executes people?

[SochBAT]

DING DING DING DING!

Once you're out of useful info, you start to f*ck up and be an ass. At that point, you're given your final warning, then BANT.

[OdessaS13]

huh so is that an answer?

is it free speach?

[Azzazzyn]

well, he said its not an object and al that good stuff, atleast not phsycally, but the way I see it, the new mustang, the new charger the new challenger so on and so forth, but maybe its not the cars themselves, but the act in which they are brought out. Mustangs were all kinds of big back in the 60 and stuff, by the 90's, their still "great" cars but not seen like their earlier counterparts, now granted the mustang itself never stopped production, but the charger and challenger did, and not sure when they stopped makign the camaro. who knows. maybe I kinda sorta got it.

[Andrew Bohan]

caoboy is closest so far

[FaLKoN240]

Maybe he's talking about Zilvia? I don't fucking know.

[S14DB]

Someone watched 'Ed Wood' while intoxicated...

[m072514]

who knows? its the internet, just tell us, or else we'll forget in 20 secs...

[topsecretgold]

i just spent two minutes reading this thread and i can never get that time back!! :axe: LOL

[Jcb890]

another not funny post(s) from driftaholic. good work.

[blu808]

Another waste of bandwidth by Jcb890

Good goin man.

[kazuo]

JCB is right.

it's not funny.

the issue drewl address in his allegory is that of our unalienable rights.

[CaoBoY]

i think he's talking about one or more of the moderators on this forum, he has a problem with the way they moderate. he doesnt want to come out and say it, because he knows for sure he'll get pinked/banded

[Andrew Bohan]

i'm not so foolish as to talk shit in code. it's just an observation about the way things go.

[Jcb890]

if you got somethin to say, come out and say it... none of this weak code shit.

[blu808]

Allright. Andrew has been chilling at my house the whole night. We have been drinkin. Working on his roll cage, and i have been bugging him about this thread. He still wont tell me wtf is going on. I have asked him everything, from if its about al lagura's driving, to the way zilvia is ran, and he wont say anything definite.

[!Zar!]

It has to do with certain mods and how things have been changing on zilvia.net?

That's my guess.

So I gather he's just waiting for someone to come out and say it.

[monkey7]

ah, so that maybe means part of computer programing as in actor "something happening but recognize as something else?

[blu808]

What? hmm. :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool:

ah, so that maybe means part of computer programing as in actor "something happening but recognize as something else?

[SochBAT]

I'm [<this>] close to gettin that Fing answer.

WTF!!!!!

[monkey7]

Damn thinking too much, now I don't even know what I'm talking about. I better stop looking at facially challenged women.

[SochBAT]

What a Studio!

[revat619]

Dude, if its about how this place is ran, just say it! Nobody is gonna get banned/pinked for voicing their opinion in a decent manner. That'd just be retarded. Hell, i'd ban myself if it got THAT tight assed around here!

Just spill the beans already! Its 4am and i'm an insonmniac and your riddle is not helping my situation AT ALL! hahahaha :rofl:

[usdm180sx]

Is it the bear in Andrew's avatar?

[Ritz S14]

HAaaaaaaaaaaa... I know what it is.. And it's not an April FOOLS joke either! Either ;)

[Var]

well. if you read the first post it's merely a statement. There is no question. So maybe we shouldn't even be trying to answer a statement.

[n2n2i]

Man you need to leave King Kong alone, hasn't that poor monkey suffered enough.

[SochBAT]

It's great knowing the answer.

I feel 1337.

[dorifto-san4o8]

V for Vendetta?

[OdessaS13]

/\ hahaha, he may be right,
the actor was a she though

20 years later, a studio, remembering this great actor, asked him to come out of retirement to act in one last movie. he agreed and the movie was produced. It wasn't as bad as his last movies, but still not as good as his early movies.

But...i think Var got it

well. if you read the first post it's merely a statement. There is no question. So maybe we shouldn't even be trying to answer a statement.

hmmm...maybe its a statement about his dead bear and california is the goverment that had the bear killed. i dont think the bear counts as an actor though and why would california kill such a perverted bear. maybe im jus going fukn crazy cuz ive been trying to figure this out for 3 days :)

[Andrew Bohan]

the story is an analogy. the actor is not a real actor, the movies are not real movies, the studio is not a real studio, the government is sorta a real government...but not one that you'd call a government..

heres's a hint: we're all studios, but most of us haven't brought actors out of retirement for one that movie that causes the government to execute them. it's usually newer studios who don't know what's going on who do that.

[ranisron]

hey Andrew... how long will it take for you to hand us the answer.. ? haha... I can't wait for the actual answer....

[DJPimpFlex]

noob's bring up old threads. Threads=movies, government=zilvia mods, old studios=older members.....am I close?

[OMGWTFBBQ]

what the fuck

[ALTRNTV]

Oooooh! Newbies revive old threads, since they don't know any better, and then the moderators lock the thread!

The actor (threadstarter) had a pretty good thread awhile back. Then it died down and then another actor (newbie) revives it and then the government (mods) execute (lock) it.

Am I right?

[breakindrifts]

Im a studio!

Can we quit with the shockvagueandnotfunnyposting?

[NemeGuero]

Your mom is a studio!! Ooohhhhhhhh!!!

[OdessaS13]

/\hahahahaha

didnt I just say that?

Wait!! Its newbs on Zilvia!! hahaha

;) DJPimpFlex

[i8yourfwd]

No dude, I think... noob's bring up old threads. Threads=movies, government=zilvia mods, old studios=older members.....am I close?

HAHA :) This thread is fun.

[ALTRNTV]

I'll re-write what I said.

There was an actor (threadstarter). Everyone liked his movies (thread). The movie (thread) got old, and he retired (people stopped posting in it). 20 years later (a few months, or years later after the thread started), a new studio (newbie) asked the actor to come out of retirement (newbie posted in the old thread). The government executed (pinked, banned, neg-repped, flamed) the actor (newbie) immediately.

[95zilvia]

You win!

YAY!

[Romeyo07]

Somehow this was confusing, yet enlightening at the same time.

I'm torn between a WTH and Thank you. Should there be something others should be concerned with?

edit: after doing some research, I can feel the heat coming from O.T. Though I know none of you, I finally got it (it's Monday, ok?). Prolly not my business to ask why so much drama going on. Welp, enjoying your ranting.

[L1ama]

So, making a new thread = bad, reviving an old thread = bad, then whats good son.

[Andrew Bohan]

you guys are getting so close. no one has nailed it yet. remember, the actor is not a person

[Romeyo07]

nazi moderators constantly threating to "pink" people for stupid reasons?

[S13 Charlie]

Going off of what has been laid out above, I think "The actor" is the thread itself. New Studio (newb) brings an old, but good thread back from retirement. The thread gets a few posts, which brings a little bit of attention to it, but nothing substantial. Then a mod notices that there is a huge gap in the post dates, and closes the thread, regardless of how good it may be?

how's that?

cheers,
C

[Andrew Bohan]

then what are the movies?

[Romeyo07]

how long do we have to wait to get an answer....this thread might get old and someone's gonna get banned for bringing it back up

[derux]

the movies are all the stupid questions asked by the newbs

[i8yourfwd]

actor = thread
movies = posts
studio = us (in the story it's a noob)
government = mods

Win.

Here's what Simon Cowell said about this thread: I nominate that actor for the oscar for worst performance ever and the biggest waste of time.

[SochBAT]

It's not a waste of time.

It makes you think.

This has nothing to do with Zilvia, whatso ever.

Besides the fact it happens sometimes.

Again, its not directed as an assault on anyone.

Sometimes, drawing conclusions sucks.

[Romeyo07]

couldn't have done it without Ghostwriter!
