get excited about? hotcakes is a term used to describe how fast

( 6 ) are there any female tranformers fans/member here on ATT?
Depends on what you consider female. kittie rose was a chick with a
dick. there were a few females on ATT like Blue-Jackal but she's moved
on to arguing with 7 year olds on the pokemon news groups.
( 7 ) Who's this Kittie Rose that gets mentioned from time to time on
ATT?
Kittie rose can best be described as a extremly over weight red brillo
hair guy who dressed in womans dresses with tons of make up & was
going for over weight female type. most ATTers didn't know what to
call her/him so they referred to her/she as "IT". Here's a web page
some kittie rose basher did with info+pics of kittie rose.
http://www.encyclopediadramatica.com/Wetflame (Who's computer is this?)
Kittie rose joined ATT last year after getting kicked of almost every
moderated news group you can think of. the ATTers got fed up with
kittie rose crying about her damn animated toys & everyone joined
together (friend & foe) to get here off the ATT news group as
painlfully as possible. for what it's worth,while some Past ATT trolls
have had a few friends here on ATT,Kittie Rose had zero friends/
support.

( 13 )Whats the average ATTer IQ level compared to those "elite" TF
fan web sites/message boards? our greatest asset here on ATT is
"common sense" & the ability to write a reply with more than 3 words.
I don't care how smart you think you may think you are,if you lack
common sense,the ability to rationilize & no debate skills then ( as
neale davidson would say) Sir,you are a dumb ass.
( 14 ) Who's this Rob Cypher that's mentioned from time to time here
on ATT? Rob cypher was/is a ATT troll that was the only ATT troll to
post the most Off topic threads on ATT that were cross-posted to
various other news groups. for the most part rob cypher was some crazy
black dude that got his kicks posting about rape,gay porn & sharing
his prision stories.
( 15 ) Does Hasbro read ATT threads & replies here on ATT? Answer to
your question is a very big "YES". Hasbro likes reading various TF toy
ideas from various ATTer members & making TF toys out of them. Deathy
a fellow ATTer has had the honor more than once of having his TF toy
ideas on ATT turned into actual TF toys/repaints.
BM supreme cheetor was deathy's idea. Alternators jaguar ravage was
deathy's idea.
universe voyager lioprime is deathy's repaint idea. both classics & MP
Gun megatron were deathy's idea. and the list goes on
( 16 ) Who's this deathy ATT member? why don't I see his replies/
threads? for the most part Deathy has various user names on ATT. Most
current deathy user name is Victoryleo.
( 17 ) Who's who on ATT? what are the ATT members real names,real
jobs,where do they live? Hey,all you need to know is where all
straight & ain't no fags.
( 18 ) What kind of women do the ATTers genarally like? Most ATTers
like those big asses columbian women with small tits & tiny waist.
with the golden skin tone.
( 19 ) Whats the ATTers favorite TF toy size? It's a tie between
voyager & deluxe everyone here hates the supreme TF toy size the
most.
( 20 ) Why has the ATT member posting/reply ratio dropped so dramatic
since the beastwars/BM years? Many blame Rob Cypher,many blame AOL
for getting rid of it usenet feature. many blame neale davidson & all
his BM bashing threads. many blame Deathy, (some jumped ship in favor
of moderated TF news groups with the added features of huge avatar
pics,poster status,poster reply counter. moderated replies+threads to
get rid of trolls)
( 21 ) Why post on ATT compared to all those other moderated TF web
sites/boards? what advantages do I get here? ATT's greatest assest is
freedom. no worries about being bullied by a moderator or admin on
those moderated TF message boards. for the most part you get treated
fair here. on those moderated TF boards you get elite status by doing
the following: paying the owner money to keep his site running. the
more you post/reply,the higher your status goes up---->( side note:
that's why those dumb asses post 2-3 word replies) You can post
whatever you feel like posting on ATT without getting banned.
Personally I'd never post on a moderated TF board with a few mods/
admins looking over my shoulder. this ATT posting/replying gets done
in my spare/leisure time. I have enough bosses at work,I don't need
anymore when I posting in my leisure time on the internet/message
boards. For the most part the average ATTer member is in his late 20's/
early 30's. there's no snotty kids arguing/debatting/posting/replying
here on ATT,Thats a fact.
( 22 ) What makes ATT so special to the few dozen ATTers still here?
for the most part we all take pride in knowing this was the very first
TF news group on the internet with the highest posting/reply rate in
its early years. Most ATTers here can go to other moderated boards but
choose to stay here. Why? freedom,where all on the same page,ability
to actually discuss threads with paragraph+ replies instead of 2-3
word replies. same age level.
(23) When I post threads/replies here on ATT does proper
grammar,spelling or such matter? no really,we've got ATTers that write
sentences backwards,some spell words wrong on purpose like deathy.
ATT's motto is: " hey it's your leisure time,who cares if words are
spelled wrong or your grammar sucks. as long as you get your points
accross & ideas accross that's all that matters.
( 24) What is ATT Abbreviated stand for: Alt.toys.transformers
( 25 ) What's the best way to access ATT news group. most Atters here
prefer to use Google.com then click on usenet news groups,then type in
transformers. lastly click on the alt.toy's.transformers link.
( 26 ) What can & what can't I post on ATT? Generally it's a no holds
barred TF discussion message board. talk about any era of
transformers. discuss the TF cartoon ,toy line,comics,movies. post
what TF items you have for sale. Generally Atter members hate it
when OT/Off topic/non-related TF threads are posted on ATT.
( 27 ) Who is the current ATT poster who's been here the longest? that
would be Dave von Domelon or as most call him DVD.
( 28 ) Has anyone from Hasbro ever posted here on ATT? Way back during
the beastwars years. one of the beastwars writters use to come here to
ATT to post threads/replies. then a situation happened & he left
forever.
( 29 ) Do any ATTers have any elite Hasbro or TF media connections?
Deathy's been to a few NYC Hasbro toyfairs & one year was the first TF
fan to post toyfair TF pics on the internet. Zobovor colors TF toys &
does bios for various TF fan conventions. DVD back in the day had the
top 3 favorite TF web site that all internet fans use to visit for TF
related info+ pics. Benson yee a ATTer member helped the beastwars
writters write a few BW episodes. currently ben yee helps write
stories for botcon comics.
( 30 ) Who's this neale Davidson that we hear from time to time? Neale
davidson is a excellent example why hasbro/takara doesn't give out
advanced TF related information.
Apparently neale davidson had a few insider contacts at either
mainframe or Fox network. Neale read advanced Beastmachines cartoon
script & found out the ending of the cartoon BM series. needless to
say neale hated the "garden cybertron BM ending. thus started the one
man compaign to try to change the BM ending to something he liked
better. unfortunately for all the ATT members we had to deal with
neales off the wall BM bashing threads/replies here on ATT. What got
most upset was the fact Neale kept repeating the same BM bashing ideas
100 times over within a 3+ month period. While most sane ATTers
realized it was already too late to change the BM cartoon story. Neale
went beserk & tried to have bob skir fired. rumors are he tried to
stalk bob skir & got arrested & thrown in jail for a few years.
