[QUOTE=Kegan;36936728]I really hope they look into playing more Doom .WADs, those were some of their funniest moments.[/QUOTE] Personally, I think that in many ways, their AOM:DC walkthrough was not only what made them Spike and Barley, but also how simultaneously hysterical and atmospheric it was.
Honestly, it really bothers me when a Let's Play becomes a member of this forum. A lot of fans can also be apart of Facepunch and they end up always telling the Let's Player what to do. I wish Brutalmoose would leave as well, not because of what he does or anything, but because I don't want Facepunch to start what happened with Spike and Barley.

[editline]26th July 2012[/editline] And how would it apply to brutalmoose? Worst we could do is convince him to review a game he doesnt want to review and it would be low quality. But anyone with any amount of self control could avoid that.
[QUOTE=legolover122;36936890]How did facepunch cause Spike and Barley splitting for a while?[/QUOTE] I don't think they did anything to actually start it, but it's said in an earlier post that people took sides, driving a spike [pun not intended] in between them.

If anything, the more recommendations and suggestions are given, the better.

I am asking him how we started the spike and barley separating.
How about you just stop discussing the break up and facepunch's involvement? Yeah, I know this is a forum where you talk about things, but in the stream a few nights ago where they announced (to a whopping 50 people) that they are going to do Spike and Barley plays again, Barley said he is extremely annoyed with facepunch for all the bickering and side taking and how you made things worse. Just leave that behind. They both have a low opinion of Facepunch now thanks to that. They're doing Spike and Barley plays again, just forget about how they stopped doing SnBP and look forward to the first new series.
I'm sort of hoping they get into more game mods. Some of them have just low enough quality to be wonderful for such a pair.
FUCK. YES.

You'll see there's people who get jealous and were arguing with him. I don't think it will happen with him, but it's just bothersome.

The SnB fans on FP were dumb as fuck.
I think I speak for everyone here when I say: Welcome back Spike n Barley. You were missed.
Took them long enough, now I have a reason to resubsrcibe to NewfZ since it won't just be Barley solo now.
[QUOTE=Furnost;36938765]Took them long enough, now I have a reason to resubsrcibe to NewfZ since it won't just be Barley solo now.[/QUOTE] This is why we can't have good things.
[QUOTE=Electrocuter;36938780]This is why we can't have good things.[/QUOTE] So I'm not allowed to say that I unsubscribed to Barley because I didn't find him all that funny solo, and now I'm resubscribing because they're back together? Get your head out of your ass.
May I have a link to the stream where they said they were getting back together?
[url]http://www.twitch.tv/spikewess/b/325813847[/url] Near the end of the video. I still have so much beef with Spike :v:
Did they ever resolve the conflict between them and Cocyx? Or whatever his name was.

I hope they don't hate everyone here. Some of us are kind of nice people. Still, it's good to have you two back.

Little ol' man. [editline]26th July 2012[/editline] Welcome back, I should say. Just try to ignore the flood of idiots we get whenever a thread with content comes along (such as any S&B thread). The rest of us will welcome you with open arms.
[QUOTE=Paramud;36939727]It's comments like that that kept starting pages of shit-flinging in the old threads.[/QUOTE] It's not as if I'm taking sides here and saying "BARLEY SUCKS DICK SPIKE IS BETTER", hell I admit both of them were a bit less funny when they had split up and went solo, but Barley just a bit more so than Spike.
How about we solve this for good: They're both unfunny without eachother. Now shut up and laugh you toads
[QUOTE=ForgottenKane;36939981]How about we solve this for good: They're both unfunny without eachother. Now shut up and laugh you toads[/QUOTE] That's not a very nice thing to say.
[QUOTE=DTkach;36939529]Someone should tell us when in the recording they mention FP. I am intrigued.[/QUOTE] Around 1:11:07
Oh shit this made my day. Also don't know anything about the whole split up and FP's involvement aside from part of it took place here because iirc I learned about them after they split up.
