Title: Is that you Bob?
Post by: LuckyPleo on April 01, 2011, 09:17:22 PM
I have never really been on the bobthepleo.com original site, (before it was kinda abandoned and sends you directly to the forums), so does anyone know "who" bob the pleo is? The account has only had 4 posts. I was just wondering who handles the account for Bob (and Sally), is it mweed? Also, are bob's posts done as "bob has been up to this and that" or "I have been up to this and that" ? These are the questions that haunt me... :D It dosn't really matter but I'm like that, I just have to know stupid stuff.  :P

Update: Sorry Bob has had 61 posts and Sally has had 4

           It is not a dumb question, a good one infact and I think I am going to let one of the older members, ( meaning someone who is the original members here , IMR, Fancy, someone like that, or MWeed himself :o) It will make for an interesting post answer I am sure. Can't wait to see the response to your question.  :)

Like RWM, I think I'll pass - let Bob himself answer that one!  8)  ;)

I've been scratching my head over this one. ??? I believe we have always been right here from the very beginning. I think only mweed or degers can answer this. ;D

I wasn't around then, but I always believed that the 'bob the pleo' forum was started after the Ugobe forum disappeared ?  :-\

Bob seems to be quite the mystery, I'm gonna see if I can find one of his posts, it seems like we are so used to seeing him in his comics, we forgot he dosn't have fingers to type with  :D

This is definitely something Mweed needs to answer! ;)

Yup, It's Mweed doing Bob's Grumpy's and Sally's  typing, I found this on an old post
"Pssst!  hey, you!   yeah, you.  Can you keep a secret?  I also do the typing for Grumpy.   Of course he's a lot harder to type for.  He gets upset a lot and calls me names.  He has been know to smack me with his tail if I'm not typing fast enough, or making too many typos.  But what can you do?  They're just too cute to ignore.

But that post for yesterday was all Bob's fault.  I don't know how many times I've told him to log out when he's finished.   It's bad enough having multiple personalities having to share one computer, and even worse if they won't clean up after themselves! "

Does this mean that Mweed is more than one person here on the forums?   %) :)

Yup, so Bob, Grumpy, and Sally are basically "roll play accounts", so (and this seems kinda weird after never thinking about it before), the staff list really only consists of Mweed, Deegers, and Crewella.  :o After never acually thinking about it, it is a bit of a shock, even though we all know pleos can't type.  :D

Actually I was two of the top ten posters on the old PleoWorld forum as well.  As far as I know I was the only member there authorized to have multiple accounts.  That alternate personality is the one up for sale on the portal page: PleoWhisperer

Grumpy gets to be admin here because he's good at doing the dirty work, and doesn't mind playing the heavy.  I'm just too much of a softie, as degers will tell you.  Since Sally is the librarian for Weedovia, I figured it's only right to let her be a librarian here, even though Crewella does most of the work! ;) 

But things are even weirder than you think.  While Grumpy and Sally (and let's not forget the account for Yogurt) may be just comic strip characters, there are in fact two Bobs.  There's Bob the Pleo, the comic strip character, and then there's the Pleo named Bob who hangs out with me by the computer.  And since the physical Bob is getting a bit worn, the Pleo named Emmy has to stand in for Bob when taking photos for the comic strip at times.  So Bob is never himself.  Sometimes Bob is the other Bob, and sometimes he's a her, Emmy, and sometimes it's me pretending to be Bob . . .  or is it me pretending to be the other Bob who's standing in for Bob . . .

Very interesting though. :)

And just when we thought we figured it out... So let me think, Mweed, you do the typing for all the pleos (but crwella does sally's work), bob has 2 accounts, one for his comic strip character, and one for himself, and emmy is his "stunt double" in some photos so bob dosn't get worn more. Gosh, I'm dizzy...
