Necroposting

Mmm, this thing’s been dead for so long now. Poor bloggy. Every time I promise to keep you safe and warm and healthy, I end up forgetting about you. Not because I don’t love you but, well, you have to understand I have other commitments…

Bloos Rawk!

So, a big congratulations and welcome aboard to our newest recruits: Dale B, Dennis and Jory! We were in need of new Support peeps and came to a consensus that these three were the perfect candidates right now, so well done, you’ve all earned this and it’s a great pleasure to have you on the team.

Night Owling

Wow, it’s been so long since I last blogged.

So some of you might have noticed a change, namely that I’ve gone over to the dark side and joined the Blues. For the past two years I’ve worked as a Commie and it’s pretty much been my calling. It was what I was best at – mediating problems, managing members, enforcing the rules, et cetera. But as of late I’ve had a change of heart.

For shame…

I recall the days in eons since past when one could believe that everyone – no matter who they were – was not inherently stupid, that ignorance was the core and idiocy was but a temporary physical rendering.

Now I see otherwise. Some people are just dim-witted, unintelligent, and dense. No two ways about it. You’re not “hilariously naïve” or “innocently raw”, just plain, unequivocally brainless.

And here is a list of the fools in question:

Overdue Gratitude

[I thought I'd published this. Apparently not. Oh well, here it is anyway. ]

The Butch is Back

Yep, your eyes are not deceiving you: *I* is back. Heh, reminds me of that wonderful line from Hackers: “Have no fear – I is here!” I just loved that! Anyway, I’ve come back to IF “officially”. I’ve been lurking around for a while and posted here and there for the last few days, namely at night when I was unable to get to sleep, but I’ve decided to return once and for all, admittedly a week earlier than I had intended.

The problem with the gene pool is that there’s no life guard…

CAN. YOU. READ. THIS?

Oh good. For a moment I was worried that I was perhaps speaking in tongues. Lately I’ve found myself having to repeat what I say over and over again in different ways just to get through to that vacant organ people keep in their rat’s maze of a head. Now I’ve debated with the terminally thick since I first came online but lately it’s as if people are just becoming more and more lazy to the point they just overload, shut down and stop listening to everything everyone else says. Is Bill Gates multiplying or something?

OcelotJay: Prince of Disasters

Move over Mehrunes Dagon, there’s a new calamity in town. I always said – and the staff can quote me on it – that I’d bring InvisionFree down, that I’d break something, and at long last the prophecy has been fulfilled. Yes, today I successfully deleted the Beta test board’s forums (clicky). Well, possibly not deleted. You see I was attempting to remove staff permission from viewing them on account of a reported problem, essentially meaning not a soul could view them. Instead it appears when I edited it they were all gone. Just like that. Yarr! Fear my calamity.

All is well now. Heh, I completely crapped it when I saw what happened. Scotty was on at the same time but I just knew it had been my doing. So, yeah, I won’t be going near the ACP anytime soon.

*lives*

Yep, contrary to how it may seem, I am indeed still alive. I haven’t blogged in Lord knows how long and my activity hasn’t been spectacular lately. I *could* put it down to laziness, that has always been a problem that kicks in every now and then (’sall Merc’s fault) but I don’t think it is. No, this time it’s something more, something I can’t quite put my finger on.

Part II: Reflection in a broken mirror

I haven’t reflected on life and the internet for a while so I’m doing it now. Don’t read on if you’re not interested in my honest views on IF, the internet and life, past, present and future.
