So much so that his king had been sold
He posted quite well
In the threads of the dell
Cause his name was, quite frankly, Ice Cold!

there once was a young lady, tut tut
if you thought that you might read some smut
for this is just a little rhyme with a few little lines
that contains absolutely nothing butt

Remember a few years ago?
When players each other did know?
And the atmosphere here
Was like good weed and beer,
Together they very well did go.

Well, the forums they used to be fun,
A place where opinions would run
And folks would excite
With the words they would right,
But it seems that the rot has begun...

The old gang's now nowhere in sight,
Crept off in the middle of the night.
They've either been banned
or together they've clanned
And in private clan forums they write.

And Bowman has disappeared too.
I miss him, in fact so do you.
But the folks here instead
are confusing my head
And writing things that he'd never do.

These new folks who're just coming in
Can't really be compared to Him
(with a capital "H" start)
They just ain't got His art
And the rest of the crowd are quite dim.

The in-fighting's getting me down.
It's like everyone's playing the clown.
And who really cares
About whys and wheres
With all these nutters around?

A short circuit happened last night
'cause a man really thought he was right.
But in fact he was wrong,
as we knew all along,
and tell him we tried as we might.

With a name like Frank Burns you might think
That a nod is as good as a wink
For a man about town,
Who knows the low-down,
Has now sunk as low as he can sink.

And Mikelom and genius too:
Is that really the best you can do?
An internal squabble
I'd sure like to hobble
The both of you; Yeah, I'd like to.

Some of the old guys are still here,
Like Rag and Phlab and Shavixmir,
And Nordlys (she's cute),
And Mokko (a real beaut),
And others I hold quite dear.

But it's just not the same as it was.
Folks writing pages full of dross.
If they don't change their ways
(especially them that still pays)
We'll all soon be mourning our loss.



(No offence to anyone, players only named to make it all rhyme)
