Yes, and because some people can't take "Darling, don't be a dick" in stride.

I don't know.  Did I act incorrectly?  I can't really tell.

I'm seriously too tired for this nonsense today.

How about this rule: Let us all maintain our chill composure


If someone calls you out on something you've done, give yourself some time to think about it. Maybe they're right, maybe they're not, but getting angry and posting nasty rebuttals in the heat of the moment only sours the mood for everyone.

I thought we made this rule a long time ago...

[Mephansteras]

Too many new people, perhaps. And not enough reminders of it.

So it is now in my signature. First time I've changed that away from any of my projects in...ever, I think.

But it's a great quote from Toady, so I'm ok with that. And we need it.

He as good as said here that he has no intention of stopping the behavior the pissed off what may in fact amount to just short of everyone else in the entire subforum and that he's therefore leaving.

This is where I would typically say "And nothing of value was lost," but for the fact that it wouldn't be appropriate here. Something of value was lost, and I find it regrettable, but Book made his stance on such matters as "basic politeness" very clear.

How about we all shut up about Book? I think that if I were angry, a good way to make me angrier would be to talk about me while I have no chance to talk back without getting in trouble.

So, maybe we'll talk about after he comes back.

[Pandarsenic]

Fine, but only because he's committed himself so much to avoiding drama and sparing other people's feelings.

Geez.  I just read that post in BMXXI and I'm not sure what to say.
I like Book/Zathras as a player and , and I'd like him to stay, but not if you're going to be an asshole.
Herp derp.

[Mr.Person]

Org always finds a way to sum things up nicely.

2+2=4
2+2=22
2+2+2+2=26
2+2+2+2=224
2+2+2+2=422
2+2+2+2=2222
ad infinitum.

At the risk of sounding like an idiot, what exactly are we even talking about here? Native and I are having trouble understanding

exactly what the fuck is going on

so if anyone wanted to be cool and clue us in, that would be nice.

Drama in the games threshold list.

[webadict]

So not the drama, guys.

[IronyOwl]

Book made an arguably mean post in the BM thread, then ranted a bit about it in Games Threshold.

Some people objected to one and/or the other.

Book seemed to take this personally. Drama ensued.


My honest guess is that Book was agitated about something happening elsewhere, and that sort of bled over.

[Jokerman-EXE]

Uh, guys?

It's the goddam Internet.

Hate to burst your bubbles, but come on.
