IRONHIDE COMMUNITY FORUM

I don't mean this to be mean to Tats or anyone else. I just have to ask.
Why does everyone love Tats? Like one half of people's signatures are something do with loving Tats. Why not Van'zen or anyone else at IH? Is it becuase he's a super active forum member? Or he leeks cool info?
Please... I need to understand so I can join your ranks.

You may never join our ranks, silly maggot. Our Love for the Almighty TaTs is an eternal concept--one tied to our very being--born with us due to our natural affinity and superiority to you normal humans. I trust that you will not understand this, human, for the Ironhiders are a vastly unknown and mysterious race, with a large number of abilities--these include but are not limited to Precognitive Beta Testing, Fan-Fiction Creation, and the ability to ask the Almighty TaTs questions about life, the meaning of the universe, and when the next update will be. Yes, silly human, these may not be understandable to you, but I ask that you trust me when I say that knowledge about the Ironhiders is not for the lighthearted, and I tell you all of this only in the hopes that you abandon your petty dreams of "joining our ranks." To become an Ironhider is a long and grueling process, riddled with years of mountain-training, horse-back riding, and walking away from badass explosions. Turn away now while you can.

As a moderator, I concur with Juice Box's opinion on the subject.

Wait, what happened to my post? I posted here?

You can't understand,just turn away,turn away!They'll swallow you whole,I have seen it happen!

Right, second time's lucky.

The TaTs is the community moderator, so beyond updating facebook and twitter and contributing to the games being made, his job means we essentially have him to ourselves, which is something very few Game-Dev fans can claim.
Secondly he anointed the Three-Greens to begin their moderdictatorship over us all and thus began the Third Age of The Forum, where much that once was is lost; for none now live who remember it. (/sarcasm and Galadriel quotes - He appointed 3 Mods to help organise the forum and keep the peace and help us with what he can't because he's busy)

The thing with the signatures is that while yes, lots of us have supposed Tats quotes, they are mangled sci-fi-pop-culture quotes from things like Star Wars and LOTR that began as improvisational humour by BBB before he ascended into the Green Place. He changed his sig without a word to us and we did the same, until it spread to made-up quotes and not ones from Yoda or Gandalf or someone, only with Tats instead of a name.

I'll admit I was too afraid to ask this myself.

RZRider informed me that he was the founder of the TaTs-sig trend, not BBB.

Could you post a link to that, 'cause I don't remember it?

I could check... but you DO realize I might have better things to do with my time, right?

I know. I wasn't asking, I was just curious.

I see. It all makes sense now.

When I read RZ Rider's signature, it gave me an idea for us to all make signatures about Tats for fun. RZ had the idea for the Tats jokes in the signature, while I had the idea for us to make it a community joke.

So, now that the Tats sig jokes are old, how about we make sig jokes for Pencil?

Like my pencil quote by william sharpenspear!!!

It begins. The Apencilypse is upon us!

I'm afraid I was the first to start the Pencil-satirizing sigs, though mine isn't a quote.
