Wasn't there a Nintendo version of Avoid the Noid too? I seem to remember seeing it in my local video store, way back in the day. Gwalla | Talk 02:55, 14 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Shouldn't we add that a group of people murdered someone in a Noid costume?--WitchesBrew82 19:59, 8 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I work at Domino's...after I asked my manager about the Noid story, he told me that although there was really a Kenneth Noid, canning the advertising campaign had nothing to do with him. It was a financial decision.Ben 05:03, 18 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Article Missing Key Point

I still don't know what the Noid is. This article does not describe its function, its motivation, the motivation for avoiding it, or anything at all. If this information has never been known, then that should be in this artice. Promontoriumispromontorium (talk) 06:31, 20 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Totally unsubstantiated and will be ignored, but I think it's so someone can reply "What's a noid?" and they can respond "What you'll be if you don't order Domino's!"

Better picture?

Isn't there a picture of the Noid in claymation form somewhere? Only pics in this article are from Family Guy and the PC game.

I'd say Kenneth Noid was just a bit paraNOID. Sorry, couldn't resist.

That fits in the better picture section very well. Good work dumb ass. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.185.6.18 (talk) 20:18, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The article says Group 243 "created" The Noid, yet the next paragraph states the original artist was never compensated for her creation by the agency (that being Group 243). So, which is it? And there is no name or credit beyond Group 243, shouldn't we have a citation noting this fact? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.226.57.27 (talk) 08:14, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, seriously. I arrive on this page for some research on the Noid, and I find goddamn Family Guy staring me in the face. Get rid of that picture, and add one of the actual Noid. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.242.47.76 (talk) 22:00, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fundamentalists

Wasn't there some kind of anti-Noid fundamentalist hysteria? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.117.70.63 (talk) 20:21, 2 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There's all sorts of weird Noid-based urban legends, of which about 99% are made up or never heard of outside of small sources. I think the only 1% was Kenneth Noid. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.243.176.166 (talk) 20:49, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

References

Reference #1 no longer exists. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Strikethree (talkcontribs) 17:08, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Brookylnese?

Isn't "Noid" what they call "Nerd" in Brooklyn? - R.G. (talk) 02:15, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The True History of The Noid

As a former Domino's manager in Columbus Ohio, I do know the true origin of the "Noid". There was a saying among many of us in the early 80's that we were all "noids and droids"...meaning mindless robots going to work every day. The first people who used it were Steve Vesco and Margi Rodock. That saying somehow became the basis for The Noid. And, no, we did not get a cut of the creation cash...
