Boards Buzz: We Don't like to Gossip but...

[Black Eye Guy]

...We have to!! To much goes on behind the scenes that members don't get to hear about, so we have gathered together some stories that Im sure you may have been aware of, but now it's time for the truth*!


(* Please note, not all stories are true, except the ones about Lyri, she really is that bad.)

Story of a fading star!

​

Such a pity when someone famous falls off the face of the planet, but that's what happened to the Anya Donkey. At last years Awards she made a splash, running rampant at the 2008 Buffies, but where has she been since?

Unfortunately not much, after the awards she hoped to expand her 15 mins of fame into a recurring role on the hit Drama: New Horizons, but unfortunately soon after she was hired to play the new villain, a crazy donkey hell bent on terrorizing the gang with her drunken antics and lack of hygiene, the storyline was cut along with her role.

Producer and ex-best friend to the Anya Donkey, Black Eye Guy, was the one who made the decision, at the time stating their budget wasn't big enough to do the storyline. But insider secrets say, the Anya Donkey's new found reputation was what got her booted. Snapped soon after the awards partying it up with the likes of Paris Hilton, and quoted as saying that New Horizons was just "a stepping stone to the big leagues for her", apparently caused a bit of Bad blood between the producers and the Anya Donkey, with them eventually deciding to cut the rising star, and basically cut her career.

The Anya Donkey cut all ties with BEG, who as we remember from last years awards, The two couldn't be separated, and they haven't spoken since. Both parties remained quite on their much published fall out, but it was the Anya Donkey who spoke up first, when she appeared on Jay Leno, officially confirming that they weren't speaking and that she didn't care, stating "I will be just fine, they don't know what their missing out on by cutting me out of the show, I have my friends and a lot of offers in my trough right now".

Apparently this wasn't so true, the offers dried up quick, and her other friendships seemed to break too, when we here at Boards Buzz asked Paris Hilton if it was true the Anya Donkey would be taking over Nicole richies place on the Simple life, she merely laughed; "That ass, no way".

It really was down hill from there, when a slight glimpse of hope came through, E! approached her with an offer she couldn't Nagh at, galloping at the chance to star in her own reality show "˜Pin the tale on the Anya Donkey', in which the four houses competed to collect pictures of the Anya Donkey hidden throughout the boards, but unfortunately the series didn't last long, and E! decided not to renew the series.

This led to a dark time for AD, she disappeared completely off the map, with rumours of the rejection from Madagascar 2 sending her down into a spiral of Drugs and Alcohol,. Her new found friendship with the Cat who played Ms. Kitty Fantastico on BtVS, didn't help matters, Cat was know a quite the rebel since her axing from the popular series a number of years earlier, the only mention of her character; a throw away line 2 seasons later, she was quoted at the time saying "Joss can kiss my Sandbox!"

But It seems all is not lost, appearing on our screens last night exactly 1 year after her break away performance at the 2008 Buffies, AD reunited with former BFF BEG at the 2009 awards to bury the hatchet and start things anew , she was asked at the after show what caused the refriendship; "It was just time, I had reached a bad place. You know you can't get lower when you wake up at 5 in the morning, and your in the Donkey from shreks bed, and your stumbling around looking for cat nip given to you by a friend, you just know, things have to change!

Rumours are already circulating of offers popping up after her appearance last night, hopefully this time things will stick.

Fighting for a cause​

Rumours are abound that long-time sparring buddies Keanoite and White Avenger may have fought their last battle. Last week the spirraling Mod was taken into custody and slapped with a DUI after being found several times over the legal limit after the car she was driving careened into a telephone poll.

There has been whisperings for awhile that Kean, as she is more commonly known, has been struggling with alcohol. A source close to Kean told us exclusively that this is the real reason behind her recent slew of absences from BB. 'She is telling people that she has issues with connections and that she is abroad but that is all crap: that last six months have been spent with her in and out of different rehab facilities. She makes Amy Winehouse look like a Jonas Brother!' claims the source.

Apparently White Avenger intended to hold an intervention of sorts for his wayward friend. However, it all turned pearshaped when WA approached Kean. WA is quoted as saying ' When I confronted her about her drinking problem Miss K told me that the only probelm she has with drink is the fact that she has one mouth and two hands-I really am at a loss right now'. It seems that Mr. Avenger turned his tactic to that of 'If you can't beat them then join them!'. Not twenty-four hours after this supposed intervention Kean and WA were seen stumbling between several downtown watering holes as they moved from bar to bar.

Willy 'The Snitch', the owner of 'The Fish Tank', one the estblishments the drunken duo raised hell in , had this to say, ' Kean comes in all the time, usually she is harmless. Drinks her whiskey, sings a few songs and dances on a couple of tables but this new guy, who by the way ain't exactly a spring chicken, he got her all riled up. He started hollerin' about Spuffy this and Spike that and next thing I knew Kean was jumping across the table, slamming the old geezers head into the beer mats ranting and raving about cookies'.

The bar owner was visibly shook by the incident and commented that he was considering legal action against the pair for irreparable emotional damage caused to him by the Irish drunkard and the Georgian booze hound.

After they left 'The Fish Tank' it is believed that Kean and WA agreed to a race to finally put and end their Bangel vs Spuffy feud that has been ongoing since 2007. It was during this ill-advised race that Kean and her car finished the evening with a bang. According to onlookers the race was to run from 'The Fish Tank' all the way to 'The Bronze' a local club. It was during this impromtu chase that Kean had the altercation with the poll. WA on the otherhand has yet to be seen since the incident. One onlook said 'They were both in their cars, engines revving, the whole shebang but then suddenly WA pulls a U-ee and drives off in the other direction-it was so weird, he kept screaming "I'll catch Miss K...just you wait and see" but the crazy old dude was on his way out of town!'

WA's family have launched an appeal to determine his whereabouts. There were sightings of a drifter walking the highways but nothing has been confirmed. Please call 1800-Where-Did-WA-Go with any information.

As for Keanoite, she was left in a cell overnight and released on bail. BFF Lyri was scene picking her up from the Police station, wearing what appeared to be last night's outfit! Kean was not availbale for comment but it has been confirmed that Lindsey McDonald of Wolfram and Hart would be overseeing her case.

RPD!
(Role Playing Diva)

Images by Palabravampiress​

We here at Boards Buzz love a bit of diva behaviour, and the set of New Horizons is always good for a fix. The show which started back in 2005 has constantly been a source of drama and news, and never more since the latest cast member joined. palabravampiress joined the show and the producers were so blown away by her performance that she was offered a second role, on the same show!

The "˜stunt' left many wondering if this was a ploy to boost rating or a budgeting concern, when palabra's second character appeared on the screen playing evil Vampire Slayer: Indra, Fans couldn't get enough of the new big bad's devily delicious role. palabra's eddy Murphy like stunt went off without a bother, with fans barely even noticing they were watching the same person in two roles - it helped one was a man and the other female!

Rumours began circulating straight away of a possible spin off involving Indra and good girl - gone bad girl - gone good girl - gonna go bad girl again for the spin off , Faith. But nothing more has been herd of this except for a few die hard fanatics campaigning online!

But it wasn't this old news that got Boards Buzz's mouth watering, we all know the production was shut down for the writers strike, but once the strike was over there were no signs off life for New Horizons. Again rumours flew of the series getting cut, but a few weeks later Producer Lyri released a statement, saying:

"Production hasn't shut down on NH, we are still an active series, we're merely taking a break. We started this series 4 year ago now we haven't stopped since, working maybe 45min weeks can be a gruelling process, hard on our wrists"¦ sorry writers, producers and actors!"

The statement it's self wasn't odd, but what was strange was that head producer Black Eye Guy hadn't released any statement on the status of the series, and hadn't been heard from in months. Apparently writers block left him shacked up by himself, struggling to get over it, but news of sightings of him partying in Barbados, Fiji and Hawaii circulated the internet, leavening the question; Had he left the series?

Apparently not , BEG returned not to long ago and since production has resumed on the hit series, with new staff being hired to help and recasts being done to reboot the series! But still no signs of new episodes, so whats the hold up?

An insider on the smash hit, says that production is being held up by the fantastic palabra, who apparently doesn't want to resume her role as the best friend, Xander and Big Bad Indra. She said she was leaving the series to pursue other options, but seemingly has been lured back by offers of a bigger dressing room, larger salary and she's now been offered Modship, basically giving her producer credits on the series.

We're glad to see she wont' be leaving the series, but how far will she get to go with her demands, with the producers seemingly giving her everything she wants!

(then there will be two options depending on results)

Was her win last night at the Buffies also one of the requirements for her reprising her role.

(Or)

Will her snub at last nights awards, where she lost to (Member), cause more trouble on the set? She was heard saying "˜they will rue this day', just after the winner was announced! This reporter thinks they should have just given her the award!

Have a little Faith​

Rumors were running rampant in the weeks leading up to the Buffies of a long standing senior partner, praying on a helpless new internmod, repeatedly asking (dare we say begging?) him if he would attend the awards with her. Rumors of questionable office meetings and a bit of blackmail over the recent hireing becoming a fireing if this senior partner didn't get her date!
Did the new Mod cave? Only time will tell!

Filthy Foursome!

The hallowed halls of BB find themselves awash in scandal this evening in the wake of what was literally a Mod free-for-all during last night's Buffies. As we reported last month long-time member and BB favourite, VisionGuy, relinquished his Mod duties on the Buffy-Boards. This sent shockwaves through community at large. The reasons behind the move have been clouded in secrecy...untill now.

The BBuzz can reveal that the motivation behind the move was none other than House Merrick's prefect and mod, Lyri. It seems that romance had blossomed between the pair who have shared a deep bond ever since they joined Buffy-Boards four years ago. However, head honcho and owner of BB, Buffy Summers, did not look kindly on the new developement. A sources close to the Admin had this to say, 'Office romances tend to cause trouble, Buffy doesn't want that kinda strife messing with BB. She gave VG an ultimatium: either Lyri goes or he does'. Clearly VG felt that Lyri was worth the sacrifice.

However, things turned sour quickly. The couple attended the 2009 Buffies together last night. They were seen strolling in arm-in-arm looking the epitome of young love but that was apparently the last VG saw of Lyri.

At 10:23PM Lyri was spotted stumbling out of a broom closet, hair tussled, make-up smeared across her face and minus a shoe. Five minutes later Keanoite, a fellow mod and Merrickan, was seen creeping from the same closet! Lou remarked that Kean had looked flushed and her outfit was in disaray. Hushed whispers have been circulating for some time now that these two ladies are more than 'just good friends'. Lou seemed the least surprised, 'Those two have been going at it for months! They are forever falling our of closets in Merrick! It was only a matter of time before it spread to the rest of the boards'.

The scandal deepened further when Lyri, having arrived as VisionGuy's date and reportedly having a tumble with Kean in the closet, was seeing doing the walk of shame from Drogyn in the early hours of the morning. Wearing none other than BEG's tux jacket! To add more fuel to the fire it seems there has been an ongoing fued between VG and BEG for the past two years. Both made claims of being BB's real ladies man. Surely BEG exacted the perfect revenge by coaxing VG's date into his bed.

It is believed that an emergency meeting was called by Buffy and Faith this afternoon with the 3 mods and former mod involved. It is still unknown as to what will come of the 'Filthy Four' as they are being dubbed. One rumour suggests that Lyri will be sent to a rehabiliation facility to curb her promiscuous ways. However, many believe she is long past help at this stage. One thing is for sure, Faith has been sharpening her broad sword and heads will roll.

A BB source who prefers to remain anonymous summed it up best with this.

Never was there a
Story of more woe
Than of Lyri who
Just couldn't say no​

1 Presenter, 2 Presenter"¦ 3 Presenter More!​

Last night was a first for the glamorous Buffies, It was announced a few weeks before the event that the presenters for the night would be Kean and Lyri, two well respected and loved members of the Buffy Boards. But it did come as a bit of a shock, after all was this not Pointy's thing?

Since the awards launched, Mr. Pointy had arranged and hosted the awards, but for the first time, this year we got two new hosts. Both Buffy-Boards and Mr. Points Reps have stayed very quiet on the subject with a formal announcement being made by Buffy-Boards, stating that "˜Mr. Pointy had been an excellent host, for the last number of years, but wished to take a break this year, and we have Excellent host's lined up to take on the fun and exciting challenge'.

But that didn't seem to be the full story.

Apparently the original line up for the awards included Mr. Pointy and Faith to be hosts for the evening. Faith had been away from the boards, but had returned awhile ago (incidentally for each of the years she was missing, she turned up around awards season to collect her award before disappearing again, will she be around after this years awards??).

Faith had jumped at the chance to host the awards, but Mr. Pointy apparently wasn't as eager. But as soon as the figure he was originally promised to host, was doubled he was on board. And so rehearsals started and the preparations got underway, but things weren't going as smoothly as you would expect, with Mr. Pointy skipping meetings and Faith showing up a few hours late citing fatigue and exhaustion as the cause.(Who isn't exhausted after partying all night and 16 shots of JD??)

Producers quickly became worried that the pair would pull a Elton and Lily at the Buffies. At Last years GQ awards, hosts Elton John and Lily Allen made headlines when the two bantered on stage which went a bit to far, While Ms. Allen was clearly under the influence of allot of alcohol (She drank while hosting, on stage and told Elton John to "F**k off" to which he responded "I could snort you under the table")

So with this incident in mind Mr. P and Faith were dropped from their hosting duties and Presenters Lyri and Keanoite were drafted in at the last minute. When Mr. Pointy was asked to comment on his replacement, he laughed "The awards are a lot of pressure, I've made some big shoes for them to fill, I'd be surprised to see if those two manage to keep it in their pans for the entire show, if they do we should consider the awards a success, if they don't we should just consider it a day that ends in "˜y' "

When we eventually managed to track Faith down (to a bar at 3 in the morning on her 8th shot of the evening) we asked her about her replacements, she seemed blissfully unaware she had been replaced "No"¦No, Yes, no. You guys have it all *hiccup* wrong, I'm presenting (She starts to poke herself repeatedly, spilling her drink) ME. Its going to be good, I love the Oscars"¦ (She pauses) Sorry golden Buffies! Yey! You're my besht friend you are *hic* *burp*...

Buffy Boards: Nerd Central, or Underground Online Dating Site?​

V-Bulletin is threatening to yank the 2009 Golden Buffy Awards"¦ because it may be construed as an infidelity matchmaking service?!

vBulletin has issued a statement verifying that the company asked site owner BuffySummers to delete certain threads and posts that help would-be cheaters find potential mates. At the center of the controversy are the upcoming Golden Buffy awards, with vBulletin objecting to the common practice of members "“ many of whom are known to be married or in committed relationships "“ claiming characters, actors, or even other members as their virtual "dates."

"Every year, these people use this website to actively seek and obtain dates, and every year they get away with it. Minors seek dates. Married people seek affairs. Actors and other show affiliates are pursued against their wishes. It's obscene! Well, not this year. Either they admit to being a dating site and accept regulation like every other such site, or they get shut down," said a vBulletin representative who would like to remain anonymous.

In response, Buffy Summers assured both vBulletin and Buffy Board members that the Buffy Boards are not currently nor have they ever been used as an online dating site. "However," Summers added, "the owners and staff are not responsible for any social connections formed by members."

vBulletin isn't so sure she's right, and therein lies the conflict.

Buffy-boards.com boasts a membership of more than six thousand active members overseen by a small team of administrators and moderators. Left largely to their own devices, participants aged thirteen and above can create profiles, communicate in a members only chat room, send profile and private messages to each other, list other contact information as desired, adopt alter egos in RPGs, and, of course, post to one another in forums supposedly related to the long defunct TV show Buffy the Vampire Slayer and related media.

"Well, I did take Giles as my date [to the Golden Buffy Awards] last year," admits notable member Joyce Summers, "but it was just online. I don't see how that qualifies."

"Just online" it may have been, but a lot can happen in forums, chat rooms, and over e-mail. When all is said and done, the truth may be found in what people don't say rather than in what they do. When asked whether or not Mr. Summers knew about the date, Mrs. Summers declined to answer.

What does her answer mean? It looks like vBulletin will be the judge.

Awards 'Av'termath​

After the awards ceremony decended into chaos last night thanks to Lyri and Keanoite's insane antics, Buffy Summers went on a revenge trip and has stolen all the Mods' AV's.

She's currently holding all the AV's at gun point in the basement of Valha Ha'Nesh and refuses to return them until Lyri and Kean apologize for their actions.

A close source revealed: "Buffy isn't happy with the chaos of last night's awards. She thinks the Mods need to learn a little bit of respect. Lyri and Kean screwed up, so the whole team get punished."

As of last night, it remaindeunclear as to why ~angelic slayer~ was the only one to escaped with her AV intact.

I wanna be rich and I wanna be Famous"¦​

"˜The awards were just a stepping stone'

Caught between the show and the after party, host Keanoite announced that hosting the awards was just a stepping stone, a stepping stone which is going to launch her music career?

Like many other celeb tweens before her, shes making the leap from hosting to singing, which apparently was always the plan.

"˜Oh yeah, I mean I've always been a rapper at hart you know? I took the gig hosting to help with my exposure for when my album comes out Feb 10th"

Her first single "˜Listen to me sing' from the Album "˜Please?' is set to be released on Tues 10th Feb. The album is mainly rap music which she has done in Irish, she's releasing the album under the name Lil' Keano, and will be distributed by Attention seeking Whore records, the same company that looks after Paris Hilton, Lindsey Lohan and a load of other actresses that were heard singing in the shower and were given a record deal.

If all goes well with the album, Keanoite, has already got a tour in place, where she'll be performing in local living rooms in various houses in her home town, and from there - The World.

The Buffies Achilles Heel.​

We all know things rarely go according to plan, and the Buffies were a shiny example of that, the ceremony was due to start at 7pm GMT, but didn't get underway till almost half seven, but reports from back stage suggest that the hosts were there, the Producer was there, the guests were waiting but no activity till 7:30. Well we at Bbuzz have the exclusive reason why.

Apparently the delay was caused by Admin, Buffy Summers who only got there at 7:30, and the reason for the hold up?

Her shoes.

We all remember from last years ceremony that the Buffs weapon of choice seems to be her high heels, so when it came to choosing the 2in1 foot wear/ weapon she had to have the best, and apparently left it till last minuet to pick up the much needed accessory.

And on her quest to find the perfect stiletto dagger, she went from designer to designer, threatening to take off her shoes and kill anyone in her way!

So was she successful on her hunt?

The proof is in the fear, the minuet that stiletto heel appeared on the red carpet, a fear rushed through the crowed, people froze, others ran, Kemy, who had been about to enter the main hall disappeared and wasn't seen all night.

So we'd say her hunt was successful.

 

[Lyri]

Serial Dateist​

During last night's awards ceremony, there seemed to be some nefarious date-napping going on.

Moderator Lindsey McDonald was seen arriving at the awards being accompanied by the ever handsome Angel, however our resident brooding vampire was quickly forgotten about by young Mod, Lindsey, and was last seen sititng quietly in a corner nursing a Bloody Mary. It's unclear at this point if there was real Blood with the Mary, although Edmund Blackadder is still unaccounted for.

While Angel brooded, Lindsey went on the hunt. His first target was DrusillaRox and her date, Lindsey McDonald. While a seemingly clumsy Buffy Summers knocked a tray of pancakes all over DrusillaRox, modest Lindsey offered to look after her date, Wolfram and Hart lawyer, Lindsey McDonald, and brought him to the table he shared with Faith. The Admin looked pleased to see the younger lawyer, so Lindsey went into action on behalf of his fearless leader.

After shanghi'ing host Lyri into his plans by asking her to put out an announcement for the young attendee, Lindsey, with his counter-part, Faith, locked DrusillaRox out of the ceremony, and proceeded to claim Lindsey MacDonald for Faith, who looked more than delighted with the outcome.

His next conquest was Chrisrtian Kane (confused yet?!) who Lindsey spotted propping up the bar, having been stood up be his date, SpikesAngel. Lindsey brings him back to their table.

His final date-napping incident involved DrusillaRox's replacement date, Jasper, by pushing the poor girl off a table.

After the ceremony was finished, all the Lindsey-shaped people were seen climbing into a limo with Faith.

At this point, there is no evidence to suggest where they where headed.

The Buffies - From the Inside...​

We all know that on Saturday the 7th there was only one place to be. The 4th Annual Buffies Award Ceremony - commonly viewed as a lavish and slick affair that would put the Oscars to shame - a well run, well presented, and well attended party for the who's-who of the BuffyBuds.

Or is it?

Contrary to popular belief, these awards weren't quite the masterpiece you all might think, and after an in-depth investigation with access to exclusive insider information, this reporter has discovered just how incompetent these organisers really were.

It started badly. Faith, arriving early, seemed unable to understand that no matter how resplendent that scarlet Herve Leger is, clashing with the red carpet when you arrive is a huge fashion faux-pas. It's little wonder she turned up without a date now, is it? Even more scandalously, her partner in crime Buffy Summers was no-where to be seen! No-one can deny that being fashionably late is all important to a star like her, but turning up more than half an hour late to your own ceremony is just embarrassing! It leads one to wonder what exactly it was she was doing that was more important than the biggest event of any BuffyBud's social calendar...

With the arrival of the "chosen" two, the ceremony could finally begin. It started well enough, with the senile old host Mr Pointy handing the presenting of the show over into the new, and dare I say inexperienced, hands of Lyri and Keanoite. What followed was nothing more than a catalogue of disasters. For one thing, they seemed incapable of rounding up the winners to get them to actually claim their prizes. An oversight? Bad planning? Well, this reporter would suggest something much more sinister, judging from the amount of prizes the ladies seemed to accept for others througout the night...

Of course, even when the members were at the ceremony to accept their award, the presenters couldn't cope. Announcing the winner instead of the presenter, handing out shabby prototype awards, a flagrant disregard for the English language (a particularly useless presenter seemed unable to even remember the name of one of the Buffy Boards houses!), and one of the most important awards of the evening went missing in its entirety! Of course, these mods are nothing if not masters of covering up their blunders - some quick editing action meant that most people were unaware of the chaos bubbling below the surface.

As always, Buffy Summers - well known for her anger management issues - resorted to her old tricks. Grabbing the sharpest thing to hand (her stunning stilettos, of course), the violence started, calming proceedings for a short while. Of course, that is until the end of the show, where the lines were drawn and the event descended into a free-for-all cat fight. Such dignity and grace has rarely been seen at such a ceremony, especially with the end result being Buffy's stripping of all the mods of their special custom avatars! A shining example of sportsmanship in the BuffyBuds community! Strangely, ~angelic slayer~ remains immune from this demotion...perhaps there are more corrupt motives at work than sheer incompetence?
