I am 100% behind the Binks thing, to the point of aggravating my friends and the person I saw the new one with. If you read any of the stuff about Lucas trying to use Ring theory in film, it makes even more sense (the reddit thread touches on that with the 'rhyming' concept and how Darth Binks is the necessary rhyme to Yoda).

It would really be a shame if that's what they were going for and ultimately chickened out of.

Thank you, you wonderful person. Though it was fun to see what the old search engine would do with whatever I threw with it. Maybe we could code it into a Clippy-type bot.

'I see you're trying to search for 'mush'. Did you mean 'madam'?'

It looks like it's working again. If you're not getting email in expected situations, please let me know.

Only if you'd like to do so. I posted this so people were aware that I was doing so, not so much to try and change behavior for it.

Server upgrade complete.

Yeah that's the point. They choose what background the post has, when they make a post. It's very obvious,

@Glitch

I take full responsibility.

@HelloRaptor,

Taken where?

A stupidly long list of emoji has been added. Just click the smiley face in the text edit menu to be annoyed by the ridiculous number of emoji available.

My concern is that people who play on TR feel "WORA" in general has some beef with "them"

I agree with Admiral. I don't think people are this paranoid anymore, especially since there really isn't a Wora unless you (you specifically, the person reading this post) wants there to be.

Everyone is afraid that people will bad-mouth them, make their lives harder than they need to be, and undermine their trust. Hell, look how I can flip out when I think someone's doing it to me.

People immediately disliking a forum is a risk when it's open and has lighter than usual moderation. This is why I've tried to stay in the background here, posting far less than I used to. If things change to become more trustworthy, then there's a better chance of collaboration, which means a better chance of new games and healthy playgroups.

Of course that means you (the person reading this post) also has to change. New forum, new year, new you.
