5. The Lounge controversy

 

This must be the most discussed topic of the whole year.

 

I better do not start to count how much hatred got this section during the last 11.5 months.

Here are some signs that there's been something wrong with The Lounge for ages:

 

January

February

March

April

May

June

July

August

September

October

November

December

 

Yes, sadly, there's been a plenty of sadness, boredom, emptiness and stupidity in The Lounge.

 

However, there are still some people who believe "everything's not lost".

 

Let me present the almighty army of "Loungers Of Loyalty (aka LOL)" who haven't given up yet *applauds*:

 

Member #1

Member #2

 

There's been a rumour spreading on coldplaying (wasn't confirmed yet), those 2 might be in a close relationship... Family or not, no-one knows...

4. Albie leaves...

 

The legendary coldplaying.com user leaves... and also returns but that wasn't memorable, so let's stick to "leave".

 

17th of January will stay as one one of the most memorable days of this board, no doubts.

 

Everything started with some honest words from Albie. Everyone was shocked and no-one knew what was happening, excluding the best and the only one male moderator of coldplaying.com - Ren who sweetly edited Alberto's posts. However, Albie was happy and quite probably drunk (Albie mood: :laugh3: ). He tried to strike back with some offensive insults, but it didn't work. The mod power is unbeatable.

 

IT'S INDEED UNBEATABLE:

 

THE SECOND BIGGEST LEAK IN THE HISTORY OF THIS BOARD!!!

THE THIRD BIGGEST LEAK IN THE HISTORY OF THIS BOARD!!!

 

Albie was shocked and angry (Albie mood: :angry:).

 

He couldn't forgive it Ren. So he left.

 

Till yet, it's unclear how did Ren get those photos (the 1st one might come from GWB's personal documents, the 2nd one from FBI's X-files). Sadly, it looks like the US government caught Ren some months ago (Ren's Last Activity: 11-09-2006 05:36 PM)...

 

On 8th of April someone cracked Albie's account and posted under his name. Of course no-one believed in those lies...

 

His 2nd comeback (that was the REAL ALBIE!) was on 24th of June.

He even created his typical threads and tried to bring back the ol' days... but unfortunately it didn't work...

 

He hasn't made any posts in the last 4 and a half months...although he still visits the board (Albie's Last Activity: 15-12-2006 05:53 AM) :shy:

I think the Penis thread should get a mention

lol that was hilarious (seriously), but went on a few too many pages than it should've! :lol:

 

...

 

 

NIK! i agree with Ian, this is the best thread lol gives a great overview of what it's been like here, for those who visit daily, and others who visit once a blue moon. personally, i still question 'the louge' and other lounge-like sections in forums, but it's nice to have it there even if i don't use it all the time, like a certain cd/dvd i bought that i have yet to play.

It should be. The problem with this countdown is that it's only based on one person's viewpoint, and is therefore biased.;)

you must be joking

 

Ive never been more serious in my whole life!!!

oh it does, he posted so many threads about Ronaldo so it deservedly made the top 15

 

if you like to talk about penises you should join a gay board, General ;)

 

and as it was said, this thread is based on my opinion so if you don't like it - the door is open (and don't forget to close it when you leave)

Ive never been more serious in my whole life!!!

 

lol i was tempted to bump the thread but i feel it's been all talked out :gossip: :lol: though going through it again i cracked up! seriously the funniest thread lol

 

 

 

i never knew about the biff between nettie and ian :\ i would've thought the dvd issue would've been further down the line, so i'm anxious to what's next.

3. Ode To Deodorant

 

This legendary thread was started last year when a Dutch girl Irene asked for impossible: a Coldplay recording from 1998, Ode To Deodorant. That time everyone was pessimistic about getting this song... until a person called Corricopat posted this.

 

And then it started for real... many people believed Corricopatcat (she forgot the password of her previous account so she created a new one), some other doubted she was telling the truth.

 

After months of promising and waiting she finally posted the ODE on 13th of January (FRIDAY THE 13TH BABY!!)!

 

THE BIGGEST LEAK IN THE HISTORY OF THIS BOARD!!!

 

Thank you Corricopatcat! Not too many people would post it in your place. Years will gone but hopefully her name won't be forgotten.

 

The 3rd place of this countdown is dedicated to her.

okay, 2 entries left, obviously :o

 

who/what are those 2? any predictions?

2. Reilly pwns The Lounge

 

In January (what a great month for coldplaying it was!!) a stranger, namely *ColdpAl* registered on our modest messageboard.

 

It took him 2-3 hours to get an own thread (hahaha must be a record or someting!). No-one (except Ian, Andrea and Ren) knew who this Adam is. He seemed to be a friendly Coldplay fan who seeks world wide web connections. Hahaha! We believed our forums have another friendly user...

 

Suddenly, 3 days later Reilly told us the truth.

 

This whole "alias story" was extremely hilarious if you think about it. This is not even top 10 material, but the fact that Reilly pwned so many people (including me) makes it "The Biggest Joke Of This Year". Classic!

:laugh3: ... Oh I forgot the number 2.. but that was so funny... great job Nik

AND THE NUMBER 1 IS...

lol, i want to know...... :wideeyed:

1. Coldplaying Charity Club

 

I'm sure this is the best idea this forum ever came up with (creators of CCC: Nadia, Tania. Ally, Danielle). I'm not going to explain how serious are the problems and the consequences of globalisation and how important would be to care about it, just simply care and make charities if you have an opportunity.

 

CCC

 

This is probably the sweetest feedback Ian and the creators of CCC could have gotten: Thai children thank Coldplaying

 

Whether you are Coldplay fan or not, you should appreciate this idea.

 

There was no even a close contestant for the #1, I hope everyone agrees with me :)

 

P.S. Please click on this site and inform yourself: Isara

ohh great great one, Nik :nice: ....... it truely is :wink:

No.1 agreed! Well done to everyone in CCC and to Nik for the countdown! :)

great number one...
