   I was very curi­ous to the what’d hap­pen here at mb.co.uk over the new 9rules espe­cially as your part of 2 net­works (BritPants/9rules).

   Zach, the Brit­pack isn’t a net­work, just a hyper-elite band of super­hu­mans, stand­ing proud together in their pants. We don’t do porn either.

   Very classy post, Mark. Its a shame to see oth­ers giv­ing Scrivs and the 9 Rules guys crap for their decisions of late, espe­cially people who aren’t even part of the net­work to begin with.

   Jon,

   Im a proud Brit and an even more proud Scot. so I under­stand the pro­mo­tion of our coun­try to the lar­ger ones.

   I guess Brit Pants is a clique more than a net­work but that’s just semantics to me. 

   As for the lack of porn, what a shame. Who wouldn’t pay to see you stick your 1 into a girls 0. [/geek joke]

   Very dip­lo­mat­ic­ally done paul. I have to admit that I’m sur­prised you wern’t asked to leave ages ago, being part of the com­peat­ing digital con­tent net­work that is the BritPack :-) 

   I guess Brit Pants is a clique more than a net­work but that?s just semantics to me.

   Well spe­cific­ally we’re a bunch of mates who like to arrange to meet up and get drunk together. As such we are no more of a clique and any group of pissed Brits you meeet down your local.

   I don’t really know where this ‘Brit­pack is a blog net­work’ came from — this isn’t the first time it’s been said to me. 

   To go on the record though, Paul and the 9rules team have never men­tioned any­thing about it. Not an issue.

    Does that mean you won’t come to bowl­ing? We’ll miss you over at 9rules, but I don’t want Team Avalon­star to lose you. ;(

    No, I’ll be there Bryan des­pite mount­ing pres­sure to attend 20x2. I’d much rather bowl than sit listen­ing to more people talk!

    9rules is less the des­tin­a­tion for it. Not that there’s any­thing wrong with that! 

    I’d like to see pho­tos of the bowl­ing, bryan!
