What's this in everyone's avatars? : Othor Games

» Fri Aug 19, 2011 8:49 am

I've seen a few people now on this forum that has a yellow sort of curved line with a dot under it in their avatars. What is that?

And what's up with the "We are the Borg" in everyone's siggys? Some meme I've missed?

Vinega Ra.

The borg thing is from when everyone's avatars were disabled, they thought they were a robot group or something.

No idea about the yellow line and dot (I've actually not seen it), but I believe that the borg is from the show doctor who. That show seems to be a very popular topic amongst the forums.

It's kind of our little forum cult, Vinegar Ra.

Actually, the Borg are from Star Trek: The Next Generation!

Two different forum cults. They're like guilds in Elder Scrolls. Do stuff for them and they give you stuff. Pretty cool.

I used to be part of the Borg when the forums went avatarless (word?).....but I missed being reminded of my PC specs....

Star Trek.

Nice guess though. Generally, if it's not a Doctor Who reference, it's a Star Trek reference

Doctor Who had the Cybermen.

I thought the Borg were to dissolve after the avatars were returned?

Their grip on the forum is tight indeed. Someone pray to Vinegar Ra to drive off these sinister invaders. :bowdown:

It was. However, for some, its hold on them is just too strong. Even with the return of the avatars they cannot escape.

He should be exterminated. But not assimilated, the borg from upon mainstreamers.

Some of us went rogue, and allied ourselves with Data's brother and roHugh.

Also, I'm fairly sure the Ra sigil is usually some shade of green. Only Expresate, who was blessed with the tangy vision, had a yellow one.

yeah, the Ra symbol is green, it was spawned from a thread about a symbol someone saw in their dreams and asked us forumites what it meant. And then:

RA IS COMING IN HIS SPACESHIP TO BRING US VINEGAR!!!

And we even got Akinator to recognize Vinegar Ra.

Me, I am a Doctor Who reference. :disco:

One of the best threads I've ever seen here.
