Title: Banner Issue
Description: NAALP Legion Discrimination Lawsuit
NutiketAiel - September 9, 2004 08:51 PM (GMT)
This is to inform the members of YJUTT that the NAALP (National Association for the Advancement of Legion People) is filing a class action lawsuit on behalf of all people who play Legionnaires in YJUTT. Our voices will be heard!!
We would like to call everyone's attention to something. First, look at the current membership of Young Justice:
Falcon
Sano
Secret
Supersonic
Slo-bo
Invisible Kid
This can be confirmed by looking at the following link, which has been entered into the record as "Exhibit A":
Taken CharactersNow, everybody scroll up. Look at the new banner; pretty, isn't it? I think we can all agree that it is very well done, and we Legion people like it better than the previous ones. Well done to whoever did it. We enter it onto the record as "Exhibit B."
Now, let's look to the YJUTT side. The left side. Who's picture is up there? Well, in order from top to bottom and going from left to right, we have:
Falcon
CM3/Captain Marvel Junior
Secret
Firestorm
Sano
Supersonic
Slobo
Some blond kid I don't recognize
Perhaps you are asking what my point is in all of this. There are six members of Young Justice currently, but only five of them are represented on the banner. I refer you back to Exhibit A (
Taken Characters) to confirm this. The additional three spaces are taken up by two characters (CM3 and Firestorm) that are no longer PCs in Young Justice or, indeed, at YJUTT at all according to the roster in Exhibit A (
Taken Characters) and, while I do not recognize the third, I can at least confirm that the character is not a member of Young Justice and that his picture does not appear in Exhibit A (
Taken Characters). He may be one of the several characters without a listed picture (Gabe Rivera, Raido XYZ, Shinobi & Element), but that isn't really material at this time.
What is material is that there is only one member of Young Justice who's face does not appear in the banner- Invisible Kid.
Many of you are wondering why I brought this up now. After all, Invisible Kid has never been in the banner, and I never complained about it before (except joking around, of course, which doesn't count). But then, Lyle was a solo hero. he wasn't a part of young Justice or the Teen Titans (who, by the way, have another blonde I cannot identify on their side, but not Kid Flash). Now, he is an acknowledged member of Young Justice, equal to any of the others.
I would not care if Lyle were not up there becayse there was not enough space for him. If there were only five spaces in the banner for the six members of YJ, I would gladly give up Lyle's place. If there were 9 members of YJ and only 8 could fit in the current format, I would gladly give up Lyle's space.
But there are
six members of YJ and space for
eight. Yet only
five of the current YJers are up there. Two of the remaining three spaces are taken up by characters that aren't even on the roster anymore, and one by a character that may or may not be on the roster (I can't be absolutely certain, though I think he is not), but is definitely not a member of Young Justice. That just doesn't strike me as being particuliarly fair, which is why I am bringing this up on behalf of all people who play Legion characters at YJUTT. ;-)
I'm not asking that the banner be torn down and replaced immediately- that is far too much work for whoever did it, I'm sure, and it still looks really good. That would be unreasonable and spiteful on my part, not to mention exceedingly petty. I am just asking that, in future banner updates, whoever is making the new one/updating the old one be more mindful of the current makeup of the teams and characters of YJUTT for a more accurate and even representation, ensuring fairness for all concerned.
I hope that this post came across in the spirit that I intended it- a lighthearted and friendly drawing of attention to what I see as an accidental oversight (obviously, I was kidding about the whole discrimination lawsuit thing). :-)
-Jim
Executive Director, NAALP
Jakazul - September 9, 2004 10:46 PM (GMT)
I hereby award you 3 YJUTT Dollars for the betterment and continuation of your cause, however: Since YJUTT does not have it's own currency, I take them back on the grounds that you are trying to counterfeit us.
Luckily for you, I won't press charges. :D
Robin - September 10, 2004 12:18 AM (GMT)
Unfortunantly Jim, the NAALP (National Association for the Advancement of Legion People) is not recognize as an offical legitamet orginazation in any country, time or universe and is considered by all forms of government to be a sadisc cult.
Thus your 'Lawsuit' has been dumped and you are to be charged 500 dollars for wasting the court's time. (Make check payable to YJUTT Administration)
And your statement of us not being fair, is a bit of an exaggeration. We posted OFFICAL members of Young Justice and Teen Titans on the banner, who where listed as members of the team. You character was not added to the YJ roster until only yesterday. At the time Invisible Kid was NOT a member of any orginzation offically as you had requested. And thus we didn't post him at the time.
So as for your demand... er... 'request'... the YJUTT does not negotitate with terrorist cults. . B)
Don't make us press us abuse to the extent of the YJUTT law and the powers of the Kindgom of Cram and Phoenix God allows (which is QUITE a bit).
Jakazul - September 10, 2004 01:02 AM (GMT)
*dances around* $500! WOOOO! $500! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Erm...
I mean...
Yeah, what Alan said.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NutiketAiel - September 10, 2004 06:00 AM (GMT)
Seriously- Thanks for the explanation, Alan. I hadn't realized that it was a consequence of Lyle being added to YJ so late. Thank you for clearing that up.
That being said:
$500? FIVE-HUNDRED DOLLARS?!? You must be out of your mind!! I refuse to pay!
The NAALP (National Association for the Advancement of Legion People) is a recognized NGO by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the High Principality of Time (if I'm High Prince of Time, I decree that I also have a Principality, so :-P ), and has been fighting for the rights of Legion People from its base in Philadelphia and at my Semi-Secret Fortress at the End of Time for decades. Go ahead and check. :-P
Because of the afforementioned new evidence, the NAALP has voluntarily dropped its lawsuit, but we are filing a new one against the YJUTT Administration in general and the persons of Alan and Jake in particuliar for libel- we are not a sadistic cult, or a terrorist cult, and you have defamed our reputation!! We are suing you for one-hundred billion dollars, and we will have satisfaction. THE LAW IS ON OUR SIDE, ALAN!!!!
I'll see you in court.
And I demand a neutral judge- send in Lani, Rachel or Marx.
Robin - September 10, 2004 07:35 AM (GMT)
Jim, you're power pales in comparision to ours. So don't even try because you always lose.
You will pay or we will destroy you. Our power out weighs yours. We control time, space and just about everything else. We allowed you this 'power' because we are too busy to worry about it ourselves. But we gave it to you and we can take it away. We in the Admin, live outside of time.
This is our universe jim. You just live it .
Now cough up the money before we get even more annoyed.
As said before, your 'organization' is NOT recognize as an offical legitamet orginazation in any country, time or universe and is considered by all forms of government to be a sadisc cult. This isn't defamed our reputation, when we have facts and evidence.
By saying otherwise would be a lie, Jim. You don't want to be a liar do you? I didn't think so. :D
The law is not on your side, because you a known offender on multiple issues, include fraud, illegal counterfitting (as mentioned by Jakazul earlier) and your past attempts at desrupting the time-space continum for frivolas needs. You have abused your power for the sole-purpose of expanding the Legion cult and disrupt the workings of the YJUTT.
Again your 'law suit' is dismissed and for once again wasting the court's time you must pay the YJUTT One-thousand billion dollars (we're getting a pool kids! Thanks your uncle Jim and his obssession). You are also fined for defacing the names and abilities of Jakazul (The great creator) and myself (the Phoenix God.).
If you do not pay the afford-mentioned fines, we will remove your powers of time and put you in the kiddie corner. And don't tempt us cause you KNOW we can and will do it.
:angry: :pissed: :angry:
NutiketAiel - September 10, 2004 08:01 AM (GMT)
You know, this whole "we're the admins and the people who made the site and thus have absolute power over everything and everyone and all power stems from us so nothing you can even think about doing has any chance of ever stopping us so why even try" thing really gets old after a while. I mean, if no one who isn't an admin has any chance of ever possibly winning, what is the point of even playing? Please, answer me that. It just doesn't seem fun.
So here. $1000 Billion Dollars. Take it, and build your swimming pool. I'm going back to my Semi-Secret Fortress at the End of Time to think things over. Which, since it is under MY control because I created it, and not YOU, recognizes the existance of the NAALP as an official NGO. So I'm not lying. :-P
Enjoy your money. If you're wondering where I got it from, it came from the YJUTT Bank Account 3 days in the future, so I suggest you spend it sometime in the next 72 hours before it disappears. I love being immune to paradox.
Robin - September 10, 2004 08:12 AM (GMT)
Jim, Jim, Jim...
As we said in the rules Admin are like gods, and you don't argue with gods do you?
Now we certainly are NOT above the YJUTT rules that are listed on the site. If we do something wrong we pay for it. I once banned myself from the site for 2 days for getting really PISSED off at a player and saying a few... choice words. But that doesn't mean we can't use our power when necessary. After all, what the point of being god-like if you don't have perks? :D (Marx and his monkey's of doom, my evil roach squad, etc...)
Besides, your one to call the kettle black, Jim. Mister 'I-control-time-so-I-think-I can-get-out-of-everything-with-no-excuse.' :P I only began using the full extent of my power in such a fashion, when you started abusing your power of time. (Don't think I've forgotten that). BTW: You'll notice that I never use my power in such a fashion with anyone else.
The universal scales must always remain balanced young padawan.
And and about the YJUTT accounts... didn't we already talk about the abuse of time and space?
atlantis - September 10, 2004 10:14 AM (GMT)
LOL, Yeah, Power, Space, Time.....Whatever!!
We just got one Billion Dollers!! And as one of the nominated neutral Judges I make it my duty to go on a spending spree!!
*Firstly aranges the swimming pool while the YJUTTers run round yelling "Thank you 'Uncle' Jim!!" Buys slurpies, popcorn, rights the the third Star Wars movie, International calling cards, A copy of the extended LOTR DVD box set for everyone even if they don't want one, A map to the Spongemonkey's secret lair just so i can validate them, Employs Peter David, Todd Nauck and Lary Stucker to creat us a special series of comics starting from the beginning of YJUTT history till now and finally creates our very own Titan Tower in the middle of 'LaniLand' Theme park whick is in the Bermuda Triangle which I already own so play nice, Complete with 24/7 Internet access and a chilled drinks machine. And an Ice rink, Bar, sports lounge complete archive of DC comics, Wildstorm, Marvel, Image, and Darkstar.*
I got a killer discount for being the Queen-Goddess of Cram....Thus actually not a neutral judge but don't tell Jim, its nice to be requested ;)
We still have One Billion Dollers......what do you want to do with it??

Alan Alan Alan, Jake has monkeys I have gorillas and chipmunks. GET IT RIGHT! :D
And yay! I was picked as a neutral judge too. *dives into the swimming pool with one of those floating balloon rafts while I munch on popcorn and sip slurpies* B) Oh hells yeah, life is good. Long live the Kingdom of Cram! To the Psychomobile! Where we'll go to the sports lounge and read comics until we can't see straight!
P.S.: Do you have any idea how long I had to wait for Supersonic and Harm to be in the banner? And I've been one of the few day one members...I think they were first put on a couple of months ago. *pats Jim on the back* You've gotta wait man, a long wait :P
atlantis - September 10, 2004 02:33 PM (GMT)
Ok Jim, as we're all into giving Titles, I, As the Queen-Goddess of Cram, Bestow apon you the position of....
The Legion Official of the Superhero Equality Representatives.
You may want to shorten it to its initals :D
Robin - September 10, 2004 07:00 PM (GMT)
My apologies Marx. But with all the god-less, inhuman creations that we all go around making, how do you expect me to keep it all straight?
And Lani... Don't encourage Jim with titles. It took us this long to get this far in his treatment. You're just re-enforcing his dellusions. Very unhealthy.
atlantis - September 10, 2004 07:13 PM (GMT)
lol, but this way he can run around yelling "I AM THE L.O.S.E.R!!"
Which would amuse me ;)
By the way, the Monkeys are mine, part of my legions of Dooom ....three O's....THREE!!!
Robin - September 10, 2004 07:32 PM (GMT)
LOL. Well then, I can't argue with that now can I? Carry on.
NutiketAiel - September 10, 2004 09:15 PM (GMT)
Actually, I don't believe in Gods, so I would have no problem arguing with one who claimed to be such. In fact, I would consider it my highest calling. However, I digress.
And as for the whole unlimited power thing, how about a deal, Oh-Mighty-Admin: I'll stop abusing my control of time if you stop abusing your control of me. Agreed?
Oh, and Lani? It's 1000 Billion Dollars, not 1 Billion.
Well, I'd like to thank the "Neutral" judges, and I hope that they enjoy their spending spree (next time, I'm asking for Kye). Can I at least USE the swimming pool that I so generously funded? :-(
Thanks for the new title, Lani. I appreciate being called a L.O.S.E.R., I really do. :-P Marx, please add "Legion Official of the Superhero Equality Representatives" to my titles at your earliest convenience. We'll just see if anybody remembers the acronym later...
And we haven't gotten anywhere in my "treatment (read: torture), Alan. I've been faking. YAY LEGION!!
And why do you guys all have some kind of monkeys serving you? Or chipmunks, or whatever? No fair!
Marx - September 10, 2004 09:45 PM (GMT)
Hey...I was neutral...I just got paid off, there's a difference. :D
And of course you can use the pool, for the simple fact that it was your money that paid for it. Of course all nonmembers of my forces have to pay a $15 admission fee. Don't look at me I don't make the rules...okay I do make the rules, but still... And I will add that to your title as soon as I finish this post.
And actually most people got they're mutants from me lol. Alan grew his own roaches but everyone else..., including Robyn's werewolves if memory serves, all me. Should I take that to mean you want to conduct some business?
Robin - September 10, 2004 09:54 PM (GMT)
Sorry Jim, we can't agree to that.
You see we haven't been abusing our power over you. We've been stating our power over you when necessary and unfortnantly whenever you deny us, we are forced to destroy you.
You bring it on yourself.
And you may not believe in Gods, but you do know that Admin exists, so becareful who you argue with, Jimbo. You may consider it a higher calling, but its more along the lines of a suicide path if you make us cranky...
And actually we've gotten quite a bit further in your treatment, Jim. Its just so subtle that you have yet to realize that the Legion obsession has slowly been diminishing. You can't lie to Phoenix God, for I am abel to peal away the lies and reveal the one truth. (We've been over this Jim...)
And we have our minions because we took the time to create them.
So Jim, you're a L.O.S.E.R. now? About time ya admited to it. lol.
atlantis - September 10, 2004 09:55 PM (GMT)
Oh, and Lani? It's 1000 Billion Dollars, not 1 Billion.
........You mean i could have bought all that other stuff too??!!
lol, actually it doesn't matter seeing as i technacally didn't spend anything, must be my feminine charms....or the Killer Uber Cute Psycho Dragons I had with me.
And I deal with Pounds!! Not Dollers!! I don't care either way <_<
Actually I have a whole Legion of Doom, home grown on my island in the Bermuda Triangle. You never know whats going to try to kill you next.
By day they work in 'LaniLand' though..... :D
Robin - September 10, 2004 10:33 PM (GMT)
Does your Legion of Doom want pants? Cause with the money we made off of Jim, we could buy them some? lol.
Braniac: I just want a decent pair of pants!
Grundy: Solemon Grundy wants pants too!
NutiketAiel - September 11, 2004 02:46 PM (GMT)
Where does that Brainiac/Solomon Grundy joke come from? it looks kind of familiar, but I can't place it.
Alan, Alan, Alan... I ALWAYS would have admitted I was a Legion Official of the Superhero Equality Representatives. No one ever asked before, that's all. :-P
Is that a one-time $15 admission fee, Marx, or do I have to pay it every time I use the pool I paid for?
And yes, I would be very eager to do business with you. I find myself short on minions- I think last time, I just ended up turning some of Alan's against him. That was fun, but I need some of my own creatures to do my bidding. What would it cost for, oh... an Army of Time Travelling Mind Controlling Giant Spiders?
With Uzis, of course.
Robin - September 11, 2004 05:14 PM (GMT)
Jim, the reason no one asked, was because we already knew you were a 'L.O.S.E.R.' We were just waiting for you to admit it. Acceptance is the first step to recovery.
And you ATTEMPTED to turn my minions against me and as always failed miserably. My minon's faked you out, before truning around and beating you around for a bit. (until you killed them... :26: )
Shinigami - September 11, 2004 05:43 PM (GMT)
OH OH OH!!! If there is money left can we start a Robin cloning factory since they are in such high demand!!!??? ::robin:: *Cackels manically as Kye hugs her second clone given to her by Marxy...ripping sound as she squeezes too hard...* SEE they need to made more hard wearing!!! :'(
Robin - September 13, 2004 03:26 AM (GMT)
Kye, thanks to Jim we have enough money to buy all of europe. I'm pretty sure we can afford more Robin clones.
Jason Todd - September 13, 2004 03:32 AM (GMT)
Think you can float some dinero over here for a decent pair of pants?
Robin - September 13, 2004 03:33 AM (GMT)
sure! Pants for everyone!
*Planes fly overhead and pants drop from them*
Marx - September 13, 2004 04:32 AM (GMT)
*sits behind my desk*
Normally I'd make you pay me something to get those Time Travelling Mind Controlling Giant Spiders with Usis...but hey, after this sweet pool and endless supply of comics and slurpies, I'll just give them to ya. *army of Time Travelling Mind Controlling Giant Spiders with Uzis surrounds Jim* And yes...you do have to pay $15 each time you come in, *shrugs* Rules are rules.
And Kye, since it seems like you won't have that one too long...I'll hook you up with a spare Robin clone. What can I say, I'm in a good and generous mood right now. As a matter of fact I'm going to give everyone...even people who aren't in my forces....a limitless supply of...*gets distracted by the falling pants and forgets what I was going to say*
NutiketAiel - September 13, 2004 02:59 PM (GMT)
Yay!! I have an army of Time Travelling Mind Controlling Giant Spiders with Uzis!!
And it's raining pants!! What more could I ask for?
atlantis - September 13, 2004 04:08 PM (GMT)
For everyone on the site to acknowledge the Legion on an equivalent level or higher than the other superhero teams out there??
But seeing as you’re happy enough with the raining pants and some feeble Uzi wielding spiders I guess it’s regardless.
Plus it would never happen ;)
NutiketAiel - September 13, 2004 04:20 PM (GMT)
Well, maybe not higher as that is an issue of personal preference, but at least equal, and worthy of some respect.
And what's feeble about my Time Travelling Mind Coltrolling Giant Spiders with Uzis?
Robin - September 13, 2004 05:41 PM (GMT)
Well... The little safety that we installed in them, certainly makes them feeble...
*Uses bug spray on the one of the spiders and they fall over dead.*
Just because we're playing in weapon dealings, doesn't mean we're stupid. Got to be prepare for if you try to take over again.
NutiketAiel - September 13, 2004 05:53 PM (GMT)
Well... it's good to know you guys are prepared.
Note to self- do not use Time Travelling Mind Controlling Giant Spiders with Uzis against Alan. Find an animal not vulnerable to bug spray.
Robin - September 13, 2004 05:57 PM (GMT)
Try mutated onsolauts. I hear those are cool.
Stepi01 - September 14, 2004 12:57 PM (GMT)
YAY FOR PANTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just a question, can I have a pet sloth, or is that too expensive. I like slothes.
Marx - September 14, 2004 01:28 PM (GMT)
Hmm Sloth's huh? I could engineer some of those, and as usual, the price depends on your allegiance....or in some cases if you make me laugh hard enough...
atlantis - September 16, 2004 01:00 AM (GMT)
ok, I'll give you a Sloth if you promote 'Laniland' in all its worshipful glory on the island in the bermuda triangle. But thats all it is. Just a sloth, nothing more.
Jakazul - September 16, 2004 01:25 AM (GMT)
Nothing more?
These peacefull creatures have built up cities! Countries no less! They have worked towards peace and betterment of the world!
They have purified our water, eaten mosquitos and done other slothish things!
They have set an example for us! They show us what to do as average teenagers! They are sloths!
...Well... Ok... Maybe not quite, but yeah.
Stepi01 - September 27, 2004 04:45 PM (GMT)
Lani,
If you can give me, The Emerald Dude, a sloth for my very own pet, I will promote anything you want.
EVERYONE! Hail LANILAND! It is the best. It's the coolest. It has worshipful glory! (that's pretty nice) It is on the island in the Bermuda Triangle! How cool is that? LANILAND!!
Do I get a sloth now?
atlantis - September 29, 2004 11:26 PM (GMT)
.............
Thank you so much!!
Therefore I give you you....A sloth.
and a pretty icolourchanging collar!!
Stepi01 - September 30, 2004 06:59 PM (GMT)
THANX LANI
I love Sloths. I shall love this sloth forever. I just need to know if it is a girl or boy so that I may name it.
And I love the collar, too. It's nice.
Robin - September 30, 2004 09:46 PM (GMT)
But remember, Sloths do NOT belong in the microwave.
I learned that from experience... :lol:
