Craven

I think Craven = Robert G.

Just a name change.

Robert Gentel is Craven???????

Um, yes. (I'm mightily squelching the ARE YOU SAYING YOU ACTUALLY DIDN'T KNOW THIS??? impulse because I know that not everyone reads as much as I do and they're not required to. But yes, and it's been quite open, and for quite a while.)

Actually, I'm astounded. This isn't a joke. This is actually stated in some post?

what soz said.

I thought he just lost interest in a2k and it passed into other hands.

"Craven de Kere" is actually a corporate spokesperson, much like the Pillsbury Doughboy, the AFLAC duck, and Michael Steele. The original "Craven de Kere" was used as a corporate logo by the Intermegaglobalcorp [NYSE Symbol %*^], a Japanese company that manufactures bicycles, lawn mowers, and dessicated seaweed pellets. "Craven" was initially portrayed in television commercials as a giant carnivorous sea sponge, nicknamed "Cravey," whose catch-phrase was "I craaaave Intermegaglobalcorp dessicated seaweed pellets!" After several corporate mergers and reorganizations, "Craven" underwent a transformation into an adorable talking Allen wrench, and became the corporate representative for Roto-Noto Tool & Die Works, a Brazilian company that produced soft porn movies for distribution in Calvinist countries. After Roto-Noto's factory was destroyed in an unexpected Cloverfield monster attack, "Craven" went to work for Robert Gentel, a reclusive multi-thousandaire who lists his occupation as "evil genius." The "Craven" identity has since been retired because too many people found it "confusingly offensive."

<ditto what Dys said>

joe, that's the funniest thing I've read in ages.

I tend to read a lot of threads and certainly realize that not everyone does. I knew of this for as long as I've been on A2K and Abuzz.

See joefromchicago's post for the real story.

Craven was terminated. RG is a Cylon.

True fact.

I can't believe that anyone who's been an A2k member for as long as Brandon has didn't know that Craven and R. Gentel are one and the same person. Stupefying, that's what it is.

Could you find me a post that mentions this, because it certainly wasn't mentioned in any of the thousands of posts that I've read?

I didn't know until we moved to the new format. Was a hell of a shock when I found out.

If you think about it, I don't know why it's surprising - it's not like there's a guidebook to tell casual users this ****

Most of us received the guidebook in the mail, Cyclo.

here's an example of Robert answering a question directed at Craven

I think that, had I seen that post, I would have assumed that a current admin was stepping in to answer a query directed to an admin who had left. Really, this revelation is very suprising to me.

Geeze, Cyclo lives in his girlfriend's Daddy's brother-in-law's garage . . . he don't get no steenking mail . . .
