    Yes, but only if you get nominated and chosen to be one.. But I'm not sure if the Disciples will continue existing, so I don't know..

    how about OWL for anyone who states that he or she will promise to be a good poster and support OWL and follow the guidelines of being an OWL

    than the disciples determine at anytime anyone who is worthy of being a FOX(member of the Fellowship Of eXcellence)as he or she has shown to be a good example of following the guidelines of being an OWL(I chose Fox because they are the assistants of Wan Shi Tong)

    than the Disciples of the Dragons as usual, but new members chosen from the FOX list

    it doesn't have to be FOX, can be PANDA or something else, the main thing is to have the Disciples recognize people who have shown to be good example of the principles of OWL

    Dave, what if we cooperated with editors and such. I bet editors are willing to cooperate with disciples, for the disciples want just the same as the editors do.. Perhaps the editors can grant disciples some privileges or responsabilities.. Like helping maintaining order and such on the forums.. Im just throwing ideas..
    That would totally increase the popularity rate of the entire thing. Maybe it's just what this needs..?

    The idea did start out here and most of the meanings are based on the show.

    I can see the grounds on why they deleted it. It'd single out a select group for a single show, almost an internet Gestapo if you think about or, in the show's terminology, Dai Li agents.

    than either let's change it to "more universal" terms?

    regular members Owls as they are in the road to be wise would be "Pupils of the Owl", the ones I called FOX to be "Wings of the Falcon", than the disciples of the Dragons to be "Disciples of the Eagle"

    or let's just make it an exclusive of Avatar

    the only 2 that I can think that would like our "terms used" would be American Dragon fans and Harry potter fans, and maybe LOTR and Eragon fans

    I gave them the Owl version, which is completely usable in all forums...

    Sure, but did you really need to underline the whole thing? I mean I understand the bold, but... it seemed a tad too much.

    But yeah, we should and will. (or at least me )
