Exclamation Blu-bloods - Our change of venue: All members read

Ok, guys. I lament the rift the blu-bloods are causing on our own site. As of right now, we are no longer "300" elite warriors. This war-like mentality is not appreciated even when done in fun. Everyone does not understand that. We will still have fun, but in a new way. A way with dignity and respect. "I'm better than you because I have blu-ray." kind of mentality. That is enough to keep HD-DVD in check.

Instead, we will take our elitism to the next level. Upper crust, blu-blooded elitest of blu-ray. We hold our noses high at HD-DVD. We do not name call. We do not put down. We use our superior intelect to speak like Brits with jutted out jawbones. (Akin to Mr Howl on Gilligan's island.) We date girls named "Buffy" and wear letterman sweaters.

We are going back to our roots guys. All this in fighting is having HD-DVD laugh at us and tearing us apart. Now we are simply pure bred lovers of fine audio video. We desire the best. This was my original intent.

We are still blu-bloods, just more blu-blooded. Please read my signature and heed. We are still accepting new members.

Well, you have my reply. No more infighting guys. We must go back to finest blu-ray site there ever was. No more HD-DVD watching and laughing as we tear ourselves apart.

It is upsetting Buffy and you know how much she hates confrontation. Oh, Jeeves... fetch my blu-ray letterman sweater, will you ol' chap?

I'm not a blu-blood...

But I don't see what the big deal is.

Let them have their fun.

They are the one's buying blu just like us. Why does it matter?

Don't leave us buck. Just take the new upper crust mentality. It starts with the fine blu-ray mentality we already have, and take it to the next level of commitment. Only without fighting and eating our young.

I have no problem with it as long as it's obviously tongue and cheek. There have been comments that are... well odd to put it mildly. If I was a newcomer to this forum or HD media in general I would be like W....T....F!?!? If you really want it to be all about fun and not a serious gang type deal, then make that unmistakeably clear.

I believe our new attitude will prevent any more misunderstandings. They may mistake us for Snobby Brits, but that never started a war.

This can be just as much fun guys. Don't even have to change your signature line if you don't want to. But PLEASE save the rough stuff for the trolls and FUDers. Don't let HD-DVD exploit our little mistakes.

(Pompous accent) It is just SOOO hard to find good help these days. I'll ask Jeeves if any of his siblings is looking for work. Good man that Jeeves. He polished my BMW twice today. Later we will be making mocha milk shakes and watch "300" on blu-ray. Such ruffians.

Honestly, I can't believe why this is bothering people?? Doesn't all this seem kind of....childish and cheesy anyway?? I mean come on.....Blu-bloods.... I could care less, I know people are just doing this for fun and it's all tongue and cheek, but it still seems kind of childish.

*British Accent* I say old chap, I've found a manservant who will do just fine...(turns head and calls for the butler) Jerome!!!!(Butler walks in room.) Yes Jerome, go and get my riding attire, I'm going fox hunting and when I return have my "Casino Royale" Blu-ray prepared for viewing.

I can't remember what thread they were in, but there were comments about a battle flag and bullets below the logo and one about army jackets and stuff... that's just strange. It's a HDM format... not the US army.

sorry for chiming in, just wanted to say that some of the comments (the warrior kind) are quoted on other forums (as you know). So they are always out of context and the tongue-in-cheek gets lost. That way (i'm putting this as delicate as i can), they come off sounding like they were made by *cough* raving lunatics *cough*

/staying out of the discussion again

Well, this is why we are getting away from those ruffians.

I say, ol' chap. I like that polo shirt. Jeeves uses the same one to polish my Row Team trophys.

I agree!

I'm all about Blu-ray kicking the living bejezus out of HDDVD. I'm career Army, and have been in elite units part of my service, but this Blu-Blood thing sounds ... well ... silly. To each his own I guess.
