OH NO, BEN HAS BEEN GENTLED!

[Songstress]

*calls for Nynaeve to heal him*

 

While we wait....  help yourself to some of the Tower's world-famous tainted brownies:

 

 

 

 

Welcome to the saidin-channeling (*cough*better*cough*) tower!   Three in one week, we are ON A ROLL!

 

Tell us how you were captured - i mean, attracted? to join us!   Are we pretty?    Fun?   Does someone have blackmail photos?  

 

Do you have a favorite Asha'man?  

 

Why are you staring at me?  

 

[Gentled Ben]

Ooh, yum! Love me some brownies! You can't even taste the taint in these. *munch munch*

 

I almost joined years ago because the One Power fights looked fun, but I got distracted and wandered off. Now it looks like you don't do them anymore because the dice roller is broken or something, but hopefully, that will be fixed. I joined because I stop by here a lot anyway. I met some folks here in a music thread when I first returned to DM, and then I played some mafia with them, and now I am starting to enjoy mafia, and I figure if I keep stopping by and posting here, then I might as well earn points for it, and then, if you ever get the dice thing fixed, I can defeat all of you with all the awesome weaves and angreal I can buy with all those saved up points!  

[Gentled Ben]

As far as favorite Asha'man go, I suppose Damer Flynn. I like that Taim was supposed to build weapons, and here's this grizzled old man who, sure he can kill too, is this awesome healer and just a mellow old dude all around. Atal Mishraile and Jahar Narishma have the coolest names, though.

[Dar'Jen Ab Owain]

Welcome, Ben. Glad to see you here.

 

They have incredible brownies.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

Oh no, he can't be gentled here

 

Welcome and weaves a backsies ungentling

[Gentled Ben]

Thank you, Cindy!

 

You are so right about the brownies, Dar'Jen.

 

Just so you guys know, my username was meant as sort of a clever bit of word play, but the joke is on me, because most of the members here are too young to appreciate it. When I was really little, there was a TV show called .Gentle Ben.

[Niniel]

Welcome to the BT! Somehow it feels like you were already a member. :)

[Gentled Ben]

Right? I've been posting here for a couple/few months. It does feel like a home.

 

And it's okay to make some gentled jokes; I was just letting everyone know where the name actually came from.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

Thank you, Cindy!

I am old enough to remember it.

I'm glad I'm not alone. I've met a few of us here.

I admit i don't know gentle ben. i clicked the link and it doesn't look familiar.... So I feel less old now lol

 

I always thought the handle was a WoT reference.

[Nynaeve]

Ben how long have you been on DM? feels like forever.

[Gentled Ben]

Since September of 2006

[Nynaeve]

Not bad

[Gentled Ben]

This is the most active I've ever been, at least across all the boards. I was pretty active in the White Tower Org initially, for the first several months or so, and then in the White as a Sitter for awhile, but mostly, I have been absent.

 

I was on Facebook a lot (too much, really), and I was playing some online games, but I have tired of political drama on Facebook and was getting burned out on the game I've been playing (a WoT-based game that is free and fairly simple to play, if anyone's interested), so I started spending less time there and more time here, and I got hooked. I remember this website as being far busier than it is now, and it was hard to keep up with very many threads unless you wanted to spend a lot of time on here, but now, it seems slower, and I can carry on several conversations here at once, so I have been digging in. It's been fun so far. 

[Dar'Jen Ab Owain]

Glad that you are able to be more active. I have found DM to be a very welcoming place, and am so glad that I came when I did.

 

I have enough drama in my own life, so sure don't need on-line drama. And so far DM seems to be fun, and everyone very welcoming.

 

Glad you decided to be a part of the Black Tower. They have really good brownies in here...

[Leyrann]

Welcome Ben! I hope your stay will both be good and long.

[Gentled Ben]

Thank you, so do I!
