Quote links are still broken. Did anybody actually inform the Toad? Sending a PM now...

New DF version.
I make a monklike dude with no weapon skills, just fighter, striker, kicker, observer, swimmer, armor skill.

It starts me with a copper spear.
WTF?

[TamerVirus]

As far as I can tell, quoting is only broken in threads where Great Order frequented in.
_{because this is all Great Order's fault
it seriously is}

[TD1]

No one questions whether it seriously is or not.

We all know that GO fapped the board over.

The most dangerous knives are the dull ones!

For some reason the top two quotes work, but the bottom one does not, even though they're in the same thread.

With Great Order comes Great Disorder.

Boss reached new levels of douchebaggery today. Calls me in because of what happened on Tuesday. First tries changing the story to say that it happened last week(impossible, I was on vacation), and that I refused to do something else entirely. He pulls out my Official Job Description form, something he had to actually take the time to dig up juuust to make a point, since it was something I signed in 2015, long before he ever arrived. After flashing it briefly, he covers it out of sight, then starts rattling off my supposed job description, except he's almost certainly embellishing because he's using more words than could have actually fit on the form. Then, he starts accusing me of doing things like taking me aggression out on people on the sales floor, which is 100% a fabrication and I can easily get people to attest to that.

Then he forces me to sign a form stating that all of the above actually happened and I'll improve my conduct, which is then entered into my employee records. I'm pretty sure that making me to sign a false statement like that is a crime.

Finally got around to changing the lightbulb in my room. Thing's been out since like... march. Promptly turned it off after making sure it worked, but it still feels weird to have a working light in the room again.

Toady replied and said he'll run a full maintenance on the forum before he leaves for FDG-PAX.

You didn't seriously sign it, did you?

Unfortunately yes. If I had argued, I don't think I could have stopped it from becoming a very heated argument.

Came in this morning and found that someone had stashed a bunch of phone-sex pamphlets back in the stacks. Dunno why they even bothered advertising the line when their emphemera were booklets of glossy full-color hardcore porn.

You honestly cannot find another job in the area?

And yes, forcibly signing something is illegal, but you need to report it ASAP.

Also, heated argument probably better than being forced to sign literal lies.

Also, get written statements from people to back you up.

Edit: make sure they write it, not you.

What even are people?

So when I got up that morning, I sent a reply saying "Yeah, no. You've got to do a lot fucking better than 'Sorry' after that." That evening, some 10-11 hours later, I got a new message from her.

"I'm actually a little shy (monkeyface) are you going out tonight?"

Then she tried calling me, I picked up and the call ended immediately. I tried calling her back, it went to voicemail.

"I tried to call to say sorry (thumbsup)", I responded that I'd tried to answer it. Then I said that no, I wasn't actually planning on going out, since I had an early start on Saturday.

Then I waited a bit, went out and got food, came back, ate food... Roughly an hour after the last message, I sent a new text saying that if she didn't have anything else to say, then I wasn't going to be expecting to hear from her again; and that I was entirely uninterested in being treated that way.


Seriously. "A little shy" does not excuse standing someone up and ghosting them for four days. This is supposed to be a grown woman.

[Doomblade187]

Tbh, Kagus, I ghost my friends for weeks at a time. If a relationship is just starting out, a week of no contact might be normal. Just my brain thoughts.

No contact is fine. Ghosting is specifically not answering someone else's attempts to make contact, as is what happened when she vanished mid-conversation and then completely disregarded the "Hey" I sent a couple days later.

And getting stood up on a pre-agreed date, with zero explanation or apology for several days, is also pretty fucking uncool. Especially when the extremely-belated apology you do get amounts to "oopsie".
