Why is Grovelbot uniformly assigned, regardless of whether a member has donated or not?

[hisownpetard]

I want him to go away, and I want him to go away NOW.

[babylonsister]

1. Let me call you a whaaambulance!

:evilgrin: Just ignore the little bugger; he'll be gone soon enough. I think we need about 27 more people to meet the goal.

[hisownpetard]

12. Hey, you 27 people better pay up - you're making a lot of us unhappy here!

[yardwork]

58. ok - ok! I signed up. Sheesh.

Then I accidentally assigned all my points to Gravel instead of Kucinich. Rats!

[hisownpetard]

59. Talk about wasting your votes!! But thanks for bellying up to the anti-grovelbot bar!

[yardwork]

61. I know! I'm so aggravated. I can't even blame a butterfly ballot....

[hisownpetard]

63. How're your chads hangin'?

[yardwork]

64. Not well. Not well at all. At least Kucinich is way ahead, even without my votes.

[hisownpetard]

65. DK is getting less than his due, on every level. He's the only one who has the jailer's keys

jangling in his pocket and is dying to use them, to right the wrongs that have been
committed against the Constitution. People just don't seem to get that - or else
they do get it but don't believe he can deliver.

I give DK a ton of credit, at this point, just for showing up.

[yardwork]

67. Thanks. Now I feel even worse about messing up his points.

Dennis, if you're reading this, 41 of Mike Gravel's points were supposed to be yours! Sorry, guy.

[hisownpetard]

68. Aww, now I feel bad. I'd offer to buy you those points back, but then you'd only beq

cancelling out Gravel's votes and not advancing Dennis's, unless I bought double
what you spent and... well, it's getting too complicated here.

Did this make you feel better, or worse?

[yardwork]

69. It made me laugh, so now I feel better! Thanks.

[hisownpetard]

46. Light Bulb Moment: Actually, an interesting thing happened on the way to hating Grovelbot.

I noticed that, without the benefit of personal avatars, I had to pay closer attention to
the nuances of what people were saying, instead of automatically knowing what angle
they were coming from and assigning everything a meaning, accordingly.

Interesting.

More Grovelbot, please!

[EFerrari]

50. I love Grovelbot. I actually miss him when he's taking those long break of his.

Someday, I'm going to court him away from DU and have him all to myself. :rofl:

[hisownpetard]

53. Well, we all have our fantasies. Mine involves a face-lift and George Clooney (in that order).

[hisownpetard]

71. Maybe now that the Fun Run is over, he can come stay with you.

[EFerrari]

51. I named my last cat Whaaa Baby just for DU -- including myself

in the Whaaafulness, of course! :)

[Occulus]

2. Grovelbot can't "go away"!

He's like the Force- he surrounds us, binds us, and holds the Universe together.

[Maat]

11. I, for one ....

believe that you are correct: He is the Force (the Cosmic Consciousness)!

[EFerrari]

52. All right. Now, I have to go look under the bed.

lol

[Critters2]

62. He's there. Trust me. nt

[Maat]

70. HeeHee.

:rofl:

[Cha]

3. Comeon, petard...it's

just for a few more donations..

I donated when it wasn't a quarterly so I can't right now and that little grovel thing is annoying but all the more better when it goes away.

[hisownpetard]

14. It'll be such a better world when we don't all look the same! (But, hey, don't tell the Repugs that)

[Cha]

21. You know this and I know this..

but tell that to grovel bot butt.

[hisownpetard]

33. I tried, but he just blew the word balloon away with one gaseous expulsion.

[Cha]

40. "gaseous expulsion"..brwahaha

grovel needs to step away from the beans.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

4. It's most likely not possible to assign him to just those who

haven't donated yet...

And I think also that he will be gone by tomorrow...

The drive ends today...

Patience!

[hisownpetard]

15. Hi, Peggy! OK, if you say so...

[Deja Q]

5. Because Grovelbot refuses to discriminate, which can be an illegal act...

:hide:

[hisownpetard]

16. So he's an Equal Opportunity Deployer...

[saltpoint]

6. Hold on, everyone. I'll call Ted Stevens' office. Ted's an expert of the internets.

We'll get his take on this.

[hisownpetard]

18. I already asked him to come; he can't get here. That bridge ain't connected to nuttin'...

[saltpoint]

25. LOL!

Maybe ol' Ted could do an IM for rescue.

[hisownpetard]

28. Only if you gave him, oh, say, a quick 3 million.

[Rosemary2205]

7. CALL CONGRESS RIGHT FUCKING NOW!!!

[hisownpetard]

19. Can't. Having accomplished everything they set out to do, they're now on a well-earned VACATION.

[NoPasaran]

8. Blame the Hillbots!

[hisownpetard]

20. Can't believe I didn't think of that!

[Cha]

24. Brahahheha

Grovel's got a hold your mind, dude.

[hisownpetard]

29. Or dudette, as the case may be. Whatever. Damn Grovelbot's got me all confiscated.

[Cha]

43. I sorry..I never looked at

your profile..just 'sumed you were a dude.

I like your comment..true dat..always liked your "hisownpetard", too.

[hisownpetard]

44. I know, it sounds like a dude name. Not that there's anything wrong with that...

[zabet]

9. He is holding your avatar hostage.

The whole 'donations' schtick is
just double-speak for RANSOM!!! :silly:

[hisownpetard]

22. Funny thing is, I don't even have an avatar! (Don't know how to do that manoeuvre!)

[Gman]

10. Shouldn't we all be more tolerant of people of grovel?

Your intolerance toward bots that are different is showing. Can't we all get along?

[hisownpetard]

23. I like to grovel on my own terms, if you don't mind.

[lumberjack_jeff]

13. Shhh. You will anger gort. n/t

[hisownpetard]

27. That's a pretty seamless comment there, ya know?

[NV Whino]

17. Grovelbot is indiscriminate

He annoys everyone equally.

[hisownpetard]

32. Yes! And some more than others.

[scarletwoman]

26. Grovelbot is wise and good. He bestows unity upon us. We are all of The Body, now

Let us bid welcome to our Grovelbot Overlords.



sw

[hisownpetard]

34. I'm all for that. It's time for another body, anyway - the one I have is pretty shot!

[supernova]

30. Grovelbot iz in your thred; killin yer avatars

[hisownpetard]

35. As my dear grand-maman used to say: Villany wears many masks. nt

[Rosemary2205]

37. LOL

I love those "LOL" pics thing. :)

[supernova]

45. Thanks!

At least somebody got it. :D

[Warren Stupidity]

31. Grovelbot assigns as Grovelbot feels like assigning

Do not question the ways of Grovelbot. Therein lies the Pizza Box of Doom.

[hisownpetard]

39. I feel afflicted and forlorn, all our individuality gone!

And who's to blame, that we all look the same?
GROVELBOT, GROVELBOT, GROVELBOT.

[Warren Stupidity]

49. All your avatar are belong to grovelbot

[hisownpetard]

54. Ain't dat da trooth!

[Warren Stupidity]

55. I don't believe in the Trooth Fairy.

[hisownpetard]

57. Neither does George Bush.

[Strelnikov_]

36. He is Anton Chigurh

He is relentless.

[annabanana]

38. ok.. I'm going hunting for a starless poster. . . n/t

[hisownpetard]

41. Have I ever told you how wonderful you are?

[flvegan]

42. Heh heh...

[scarletwoman]

56. Heh heh, indeed. "Gimme munny"

:rofl:

[Skidmore]

47. Grovelbot is Big Brother and is operated by

Agent Mike. He knows what you are doing. He knows what you are thinking. He will take your dollars and anything else that isn't tied down.

[hisownpetard]

48. He can have my dollars but not my think.

[Midlodemocrat]

60. Grovelbot is an equal opportunity avatar. Plus, he's DREAMY!!!!

[hisownpetard]

66. Guess you're gonna be sad to see him go - after only 12 more people show up!
