(Who are, unfortunately, not pictured here.)



Are you a fan of modern art? Of Architecture? Of the Renaissance Age? If so, then this is not the place for you. If, however, you are a fan of wreaking havok amongst your peers by spreading random quotes wherever you travel, then this IS the place for you!

Random Quotes Guild (or RQG, if you're a fan of acronyms) was founded by the masters of random quotes, Chaunceyangel and Katie (More commonly known as Darth Zaphodplanet )


So, what is this Random Quotes Guild you speak of?



The object of the Random Quotes Guild is simple--Every place you visit (or just a few, if you like) you must leave a quote--anything you want. Shakespeare, Isaac Asimov, Douglas Adams, or even your own. Be creative--If you're bored, pick a random person's home site and leave them a quote! Be sure to tell them to pass on the random quote to some other person/place!

You know, an example scenario would really be of assistance...


What? An example scenario you say? Gladly!
(Darth Zaphod visits the home page of Chauncey)

"Oooh, oh my, I'm on the home page of Chauncey! Why, and I'm also a member of the Random Quotes Guild! By golly, I think I'll leave Chauncey a random quote!"

(Darth Zaphod ventures to the "Discuss this entry" button on Chauncey's home page)

"Hmmm...what random quote should I leave today?

(Darth leaves her random quote)

"An apple a day keeps the doctor away!" -Unknown Author"

(Darth is now pleased with herself, for she has passed on the deed of leaving a Random Quote wherever she may visit.)

See how easy that is?doh

Now you go try it!

Oh, NOW I'm intrigued! Quick, how do I join?!


Well...if you MUST know...Just leave a message at the bottom of this page with your name and a random quote! That's it!

Unfortunately, I had to get rid of the *actual* list of members (versus this drop-down menu) Due to the number of people joiningbiggrin So the site looks rather small compared to before...So I'm going to add some random filler to compensate:) *ahem*
*RANDOM FILLER*
*RANDOM FILLER*
