This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Because they tell you stuff they don't want you to ignore.

I own the place. Well, I did, but I gave it way for a pack of twizzlers and a fifth of Jack. Fucking twizzlers had melted by the time they arrived from Uraguay though, so I got to keep my admin status.

(( For the humor impaired let me make it absolutely clear the above is a joke.  This site entirely belongs to the Pundit now ))

So as Tigger once said Paul, 'You're fucked - get over it.'

For the record I think that's a pretty shitty bit of reasoning, but I can pretty much ignore your ass either way, so it's not a real loss.

He loves me! He really loves me!  Why don't you complain to Jelsoft about it or shut the fuck up?

Don't worry, Paul, he only pops in every few months. And if you stick to talking about rpgs, you'll probably never see him.

Will you ban me if I don't? I'm sorry, I'm not allowed to dislike a forums administrator because he's a fucking furry? Gee, does that offend you're fucked up sensibilities, or lack there of?

Eat a bag of Dicks Pooka. I'm allowed to dislike you, and ask questions, especially questions that are legitimate. Just the same as you're allowed to hide behind your status as an administrator, and pretend your something special.

Should I?

Where did I ever say or imply that?

Does that matter?  Could you tell the difference?

Where did you learn that cute remark?

Did anyone say or imply you couldn't dislike me or ask legitimate questions on the board? Or are you pissed because you didn't get the answer you wanted?

Who's hiding? Is it written somewhere that when a user makes a request the admins must comply? Do you honestly believe you've behaved yourself in a manner that deserves anything better than being asked to shut the fuck up?

Pooka doesn't own this site, AT ALL anymore (I really wish you hadn't said that, it only makes things harder for me, Pooka).

However, out of courtesy and because he has continued to occasionally help this site he still has Admin status.  Right now, for example, he's going to be working with the Tech Admins to take care of a few of the issues of the site.

He will not be doing any actual moderating, and will definitely not be banning anyone.  But he won't be losing Admin status anytime soon, unless he asked to, or did something really stupid.

So Paul, you'll just have to live with his presence.

Very well. I deal with pedophiles and other scum in my line of work, so this will be nothing different in many ways.

I point you to this thread, and the information that SP found here.

That's as bad as anything you've accused the Story Games crowd of doing - especially since he's an Admin.

As always, I leave it in your capable hands.
