Except Grey Knights are all psykers, and their colours are metalic silver to show their purity, not the dark grey of the Word Bearers.

I don't think the Word Bearers were intended as a serious suggestion, I presume the point was that it's no less ridiculous that the Grey Knights secretly being both the Custodes and the missing legions.

Its just coencidence.
That was back when the Chief Librarian of the Ultramarines was 1/2 Eldar, the Ultramarines were based on a Desert planet and had to scavange equipment from the Traitors. The fluff that old should be viewed with extreme scepticisim.

Not any more, so like Grey Templar has said, this is dubious. It has been retconned really, Grey Knights now use Storm Bolters attached to their wrists.

Grey Knights armor is unpainted, their armor is grey/silver. Word Bearers I believe did not have unpainted armor, but rather painted it a darker grey/silver.

They aren't pure and righteous servants of the people, nor are they evil and careless murderers. They're in the middle. They protect by any means necessary.

gets to terra grasses on everyone, and cos noone likes him now cos he's a snitch and that, Malcador the stalagtite says "hey cos your a tool an that n nobody likes you anymore you have no chapter innit"
so Garro gets out the brake fluid and strips his armour of everything, Now his armours grey (AHHHHHHHHHHHH i sees where your going) so malky the hermaphrodite says "cool" and offers Garro an oath swearing to be his homey and that he's not allowed to grass him up and ting.
garro says "mega"
and some mecanichum dude comes in and "Banksies" up his pauldron with Malky's tag, which is a stylised letter I !!!! (OMG MY BRAIN JUST POO'd)
Malky then says "Yo there is only you just now yeah?
Garro = Yeah
Malky = everyones gonna call you billy no mates bruv
Garro = No way i is like a lone badass n that
malky = no creepy or smelly they'll fink, heres a list of some uva bruvas for ya crew
Garro = sweet
Malky = jog on sweetheart

At least, lexicanum implies that they only wore red during the HH and now wear black...
If they do, it's too bad there has never been any artwork produced for post-heresy Custodes.

lol cheers for your input,
Im glad you felt the need to add your 2 cents to this, i mean who else is going to stir up arguments if you leave your computer unmanned?
I thank you for your constant vigil and dilligence in your duty, i mean you could be a better person and assist one who might require assistance or is new to a forum, but it's far more fun to show what a mature and well balanced individual you are by beratting anyone who isnt as adept as yourself at using online messaging systems, and to show off in front of strangers by trying to whip out your massive online

Yes i am new to forums and yes im sure yours is indeed very impressive as you have no doubt spent many solitary bleak years pumping it up online sculpting it into a mighty girthy chunk of manliness.
However
I have spent many years developing my Sarcastic pump action custard chucker and your online one wouldnt touch the sides of my sarcasm ones pee hole, now i had left this previous matter of my forum faux pas as it was, for i saw no benefit in instigating an argument over such a trivial point, i was wrong i was suitably flamed for it we all learned from the incident and tried to get on with online life, but your fine self felt this wasnt ample embarrassment and ridicule.
I again apologize profusely for my previous error and ensure you all it shall not happen again, lest i incur the wrath of angry teens
i shall now pay penance by basting my man parts in pate and "sand goggle T-bag" the neighbours rottweiler, i hope to return from hospital in time for my inevitable ban being lifted

I've had to send warnings to several people with regards to behaviour in this thread, perhaps a reminder of the forum rules would be handy http://www.dakkadakka.com/core/forum_rules.jsp
I hope we don't have to act further.
The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all

Cool
Friendly advice though, When correcting someones grammar, be sure to use commas and not fullstops in the construstion of your statements, lest you'd have a red face.
