Speaking of psychopaths, you do have to have some degree of appreciation, if not outright awe at the lapdog. The guy is possibly the worse offender at MTGS when it comes to psychopaths.It's actually a rather fascinating phenomenon. Since they don't have a conscience, they're free to exploit the weaknesses of others without the inherent remorse others might feel; their entire lives play out like one grand game of Mafia, with bussing, barning, and changing alliances just being par for the course.
I mean come on, you have to admire all the efforts and focus he put into climbing to the higher echelons of iridium, like his life would depend on it. I mean, to actually think he did all this effort (reading every single mod lounge post and bragging
about it among others) just because he earnestly believes it will play an important role in his resumé for future job applications (like he probably believes this qualifies him for leadership experience and shit) is hilarious beyond belief.
I mean come on, how much power hungry can you get on a magical cards website?

Its OK, FWIW you're my favorite ex-corrupt mod. You took the abuse like a good sport over here, so that's a definite sign of maturity.Also, I know many of you guys think I have this irrational hatred of you, but that's really not where my previous post was coming from. At all.
I've just learned not to trust a word you say about your so-called skillz. Btw I ended up ordering a 580mm billet from some neighbours of Sene. A happy ending.

I think it was realistic because she just looked averaged, even older, not some hot bimbo, so that added some street cred to her.
Like no outrageously good looking broad would go out to be an adventurer and get an ugly scar and ruining everything, but Xena looked roughed and experienced.
The series was more or less boring though hence why I say it was OK. They got the main character right tho imo

That'sStarcasm.Your starcasm isn't appreciated either
Was just ribbing you anyway. I actually thought you guys were going to make something here. It really has petered out though. It's hard to talk about Magic here when most people are migrants from MTGS, and (let's face it) the resources there are just better. There were big plans when this started, but not much has really come of it. Instead you're a shadow without much to offer that MTGS doesn't already have.
Except for a spam thread in CI. And not being part of the Curse network. Those are definite advantages.
over simplistic IMO. When a new site sets itself up, there is always a good dynamic, and things seem to be moving at a steady pace. This site was no different, as we were implementing features over the basic shell of phpbb3. Now things have settled up, so you are in that "growing pains" phase where you try to establish the differentiating concept of the site (here it is: "we are not morally corrupt"), while slowly growing to a steady membership. I'd say the different places of this joint will slowly start being populated by different regulars over time.
Speaking about novel concepts, there was also the concept that you could now conduct raids over MTGS for maximum lulz, without staff breathing over your shoulder, was an exciting prospect at the onset of the site, and that was quite inebriating I must say. There was this phase where we would be experimenting new concepts in the Troll Hub, feeling like pioneers exploring uncharted realms. Now things have stabilized a bit, and we are
back in our comfort zone so to say, but that doesn't means there is apathy settling in, it just means that we have a good routine that has set up.
So don't worry for the site, I have absolutely no idea how it will rank in the Magical Cards ecossystem, but I am certain that we will fare somewhere from moderately successful to darn good.

As such, I would like to again thank the iridium for adding insult to injury and using excuse after excuse for not allowing us to retain our gutter history after shutting the joint as planned. First it was "Hey SQL dumps are an extremely complex endeavor", then once that didn't flew anymore it was "Hey, there are privacy issues about moving data around and this is a huge problem", but then it doesn't seem anymore a problem when it comes to register everyone on Curse's network without their consent, heck, even banned users have the right to their own account, I'm MTGSlegacyuser20371 on Curse network now its actually pretty cool, too bad you are banned from seeing any single forum on the new beta, I guess seeing the rumor mill will be too much of a pain.
So to wrap it up, a big to everyone responsible for this, you guys conducted yourselves with the greatest of aplomb and honesty, I appreciate that you took the time to sort out all these misunderstandings to everyone's content.@Col. Khaddafi: That's kind of my point, you don't know how the SQL DB of vB works. Asking for an export of posts like this is a giant pain, and still a huge privacy/security breach in my opinion. As for closing the Gutter, if my only plan was to close the Gutter I don't think I would be posting here to figure out what's going on. The situation has been frustrating on both sides, but if you want to work on a solution I'm up for it. That's about it.
On a sidenote, I'd like to point out that I appreciate people trying to work with me on this, it's kind of good to move forward.

Am I alone in believing this promotion sends out a powerful message of hope though?
Think about it: No matter how badly you misbehaved in your past, if you blow the staff well enough for a sustained amount of time, you can redeem yourself to the point that you can even be let into the team.
I'm sure this will make many banned members reflect on how they can make amends. All they have to do is gimmick up, spend one whole year fellating the staff, then appealing in the rape cave mentioning who that that nice user who has been giving them complimentary blowjobs really is, then fellate some more after being unbanned, and when the time is ripe, applying for some placeholder section of the site like Magic General, WCT, Debate or the Speakeasy. Full redemption guaranteed!

It actually links to norwood riders, I guess its because of the flavor text who references the lame pun of his helpdesk
