Being Australian, using the word cunt comes quite naturally, but only we can pull it off in such equal measures of visceral emotion and elegance.

So dn, what's up with your novel? I'm still interested in reading it. Will you post more chapters here or elsewhere? Short answer, yes. I'm hoping for a creative works board to go up in the near future. I wasn't really thrilled with the formatting issues that arose from posting it on DW, tho. There is more BB code available on these forums, so I'm hoping I can add proper indentations, paragraphs etc. this time around. I'm not really up to scratch on the mad codingz and hax0rz required, so I'm going to have to do a bit of research. Edit: best bet is to probably use the code tag to preserve white spacing and bodge it from there. If anyone has a better idea, then I'm interested.

Just got banned from Doomworld. The moderators now have a better quality of life.
Good on them, heh.

Oh glorious, Ling deleted my farewell post because he's such a massive faggot he couldn't afford to let it stand. So, one more time, for fucking posterity. Hey dn, what's up? Yep, it's me. Looks like I dropped by at a key moment - have a bit of time off work so back on to DW and caught the back end of this. Thanks for the tag - it's appreciated. I'm sorry it came to this. FWIW, I think you've got maybe half a point. Maybe a bit more, I dunno. DW is definitely not the forum I joined all those years ago, and I personally favour a moderation policy that only punishes outright stupidity and not personalities. I'm a big believer in letting everyone hang it all out, and letting the group consciousness self-regulate any "deplorables" (heh). It's more effective, and it builds a stronger community. Perhaps we've lost a bit of free speech at DW; that's regrettable, but taking on Ling - that's only ever had one outcome, and that's been pretty consistent over the years tbh. But I can also see shit from Ling's POV. Thing is - it's not 2000 any more and sadly we're not 18 any more - we're all in our mid-30s now, and I can understand that if Ling is to be associated with DW in this very public era he probably wants that earlier incarnation gone and buried, and I can't really blame him for that. Ultimately it's his baby - if he says shit goes, it goes. We're none of us forced to be there. So I may not enjoy the forum as much these days, but I accept the direction it's moved in and it's still a great resource that he's working to update and improve, and I think that, given it's a pretty hot Doom forum, as they go, and there's a new game out pitched to a younger gen, just gotta move with the times, really. Sucks to be gettin' older, huh? And I think the internet should belong to the kids, really. Don't worry, they'll all become reactionary jerks too in time... Anyway, this is the first doom forum I've joined in about, ooh, ten+ years? I'll try and stop by when life allows. Is Vets still going? if it is, I've totally lost the link on old computers - would be grateful if you could hit me up. Peace to all. pritch

Is Linguica the only one calling the shots at Doomworld? I thought it's a concerted effort along with Bloodshedder, Mordeth and others.

Thanks man, and it's is good to see you. I'd post more on the subject, but honestly I'm pretty burnt out discussing it and I don't think I can really think of anything more to say on the matter. In short, I'm pretty sanguine about it, vaguely satisfied like I lanced a boil or something. I feel like a Zen master of the ancient art of Fuck You. I think I have the vets stuff somewhere. No idea if it's still running or not, I kinda fell out of touch. Hopefully deadnail and Joel are still around. I'll pm you the details.

Sucks to be gettin' older, huh? I can definitely understand your logic here, and seen in this context it certainly makes many of the decisions that Ling has made more understandable. Especially concerning the new crop of millenial members. I guess we are getting old and crotchetty.

Anyways I'm ranting, but I think I might drop by a bit more often here. This seems like a nice place where you can call someone a cunt and not have any malice in it and the person take it in their stride without cracking a hissy, right miano? That's right ya cunt! 8-)

Just got banned from Doomworld. @ #1, thank god, #2, why? The one week losering was because of me saying "I personally don't support my bros chopping their dongs off". After I got chucked into loserville for the 8th time, I replied in a thread called "Loser Ranking". Dew soon replied to me in the same thread and said something like "I like it when you are in here, I want you to be in here forever."
AND THEN I WAS BANNED.

Wow, what a goddamn jerk.
P.S. could you please downscale your avatar's size a bit? 1700x1200 pixels is simply raping my limited bandwidth.

The forum itself should disallow huge images, if it doesn't do it already.
Can you tell that someone is transgender by their hip size? Women with oddly small hips, men with oddly big ones.

Just got banned from Doomworld. The moderators now have a better quality of life. Good on them, heh. That's interesting because the post that got you losered was two days since you made it. I wonder why they decided to wait until then? Anyways, hi. You can probably guess who I am. Or not. Not like I was anyone really important on DW though. I only really like posting in the DW Megawad Club and the metal thread, as most other areas don't really interest me anymore or become a shitshow real quick. The latter is the reason I ended up joining here. I figured this place would be far less crazy.
