I don't know what Antony was thinking. But after maybe 30 seconds I moved onto something else.
I, for one, welcome our new otter overlords

After thirty seconds, so did he. 
But I have this eerie feeling he is in the kitchen wearing nothing but underwear, one sock and an empty wine box on his head while attempting to make scrambled eggs in the toaster, toast in the silverware drawer and drinking a margarita made from bourbon, mellow yellow that he mixed in the coffee maker. And since he didn’t have margarita salt or limes he probably rimmed the glass with bath salts and a wedge of cheese. The neighbors will, no doubt, find him later passed out in the garden wearing nothing but a bin liner as a cape and the empty wine box as a shoe.

I don't think that's exactly what Enterpriser was really known for...

Heh. Yeah, not the first thing that pops to mind when I think of him.
Man, you otter be smacked for that one.It's otterly ridiculous!
Reminds me of some traditions over at 9thwonders, another board I'm on and was a Mod at before retiring.
Traditions such as abuse of the board's word filtering software (usually set to filter profanity) to convert the usernames of the new Mods (revealed at the end of the day) and other things into things humorous.

Well, no, perhaps. But it's one of the many things I recall about him.
This entire thread is an otterocity.
I didn't notice it until today.
Hey, old man, time to take your geritol and take a nap.
I just OD'ed on cuteness.
I don't see the problem with posting one video, very occasionally myself...Which is all that has been done here.
I welcome the otter overlords and offer my life in service to them
The only problem I see with this is kind of the double standard (or hypocracy, not entirely sure which one) of the admins allowed to post videos (Using an administrative feature to do it) and then turning around saying we have to stick with one thread or else it constitutes as spamming and the thread get's moved to it's "rightful" place.
I understand your point Tomalak...I just don't think this one isolated incident, of something that is light-hearted and fun, is sufficient to get riled up about. I would prefer to spend my time watching videos of adorable otters.
"They're like if kittens and puppies had babies!"

^^^ Seriously.
Starting MA threads in protest and using words like "abuse," "double-standard" and "hypocrisy" should probably be reserved for something, I don't know... significant or damaging in some way? Posting an otter video in announcements for a few minutes one time just doesn't qualify by any reasonable metric. Especially since we don't know why he did it (maybe it was a joke, maybe he was drunk, or maybe he was testing something; who knows?).
People REALLY need to get some perspective and lighten up. You'd think Antony banned someone he doesn't like for no reason the way some people are carrying on about abuses of power.
Antony has nothing to do with determining where threads get moved or what constitutes spamming on the board at large, by the way, so calling that a double-standard because of his actions today is a red herring.

Okay, what the hell is wrong with TECHMAN?
I'm not seeing a "thumbs up" smiley, I'm seeing a strange guy sitting at a desk. Has my phone browser had a fit, or is this phase 2 of a master plan?

It's otter this world.
Whose the one who needs to lighten up?
I said I only had a problem with it, but I didn't go start a thread in MA or QSF asking Antony to be banned. I kept it here and really tried not to make a big issue of it but just speaking my mind in the only thread in which this was brought up. Then here you come getting all mod on your high horse (Second time I've used that phrase in two days, wonder if it's a coincidence) when it really isn't that big of a deal. Relax. Not like I'm going to tell Bonz on you or something. It's all good.
