Ah, I see. I meant to go back and look up the proper spellings of their names. My apologies.

Is it weird that I burn my popcorn on purpose? Not black, or anything, but i put it in longer than I am supposed to so I can get some of it really brown.

Even without a 'formal' council, there's already the impression from non-OT Wowheaders that the OT core (think you, Interest, Adamsm, Funden, Patty, etc.) are elitist and 'above the law'. I don't think that we should be encouraging that.
I'm in the core? =P And patty actually got a mentioned instead of being ignored all the time heh?
Honestly, when it comes up to me Interest and Funden all in the same space, it's due to post count that we are seen as 'above the law' and elitist....cause you know, having no life is big apparently lol.
Sad because that's true...well only for 33% of us anyways. =)

Probably has to do with the entertaining editing of each other's posts. :3
^ =D
Na lol. There was some shenanigans that needed to be taken care of. We took care of it. *highfive*
I just want to add. I don't think anyone here understand how seriously Asakawa and I take moderation sometimes. We've been having a conversation for that past 30 minutes on ONE moderation action.
Hat
*waves*
I used to do the same thing with MoD.
I was actually looking for you on gtalk when we were talking, we needed a 3rd to break a tie!
@ElhonnaDS, I still considermyself very new to the RB. But being a moderator means you need to get into every forum a bit more. Over all, I'm really glad I did. Lots of fun in this place
Cheers,

I accidentally added 1 cup of EXTRA butter, and 2 EXTRA eggs into my vanilla creme butter cake that I took to church potluck. To account for the extra size, I lowered the cooking temp and let it take twice as long. That produced the perfect dark brown crust. It tasted like... like... creme brulee cheesecake.

So Hat...should I not ask specifically for you when reporting the SoR threads?

RIP "Macho Man" Randy Savage.
Link here
.
Entertain yourself and remember him by watching his old Slim Jim commercials on YouTube.
I am otherwise speechless and saddened.
We need this guy back as a mod. He was awesome. This was his last post in wowhead, back in May of last year. I guess he was so impacted by Savage's death that he gave up on everything he knew and went somewhere to start anew.

I don't understand what happened in that thread. I was at the gym, and didn't catch it while it was active. Did AnrD post something and then you followed with a post and then he deleted it?
I didn't read what you wrote in your report, I just saw what it was, took action and approved it.
Cheers,
Hat

AnrD posted a link to the main SoR thread; and my comment to you was just about the counter heh.

Adamsm and Interest are very close in terms of how many posts they have... is Adamsm gaining?

Nah. It's because I haven't hit 70k yet =).
Edit: Also, it's because I'm redirecting a lot of stuff to my blog.

Adamsm
Even if you hit 70k think that will make you drop even more.
Post by
Interest
It's funny because the closure is actually just reduction of a gap I've been holding for several, several months. (It used to be a much smaller gap than it is now)

Not really what I was referring to there heh.

I don't think elitism is the right word. I think the issue is that new people come in and see that there is this familiarity between a lot of us here who have gotten to know each other somewhat through the debate threads and the RB. It means we have inside jokes that newer posters might not get, and that we tend to comment on each others posts more often and more easily, because of the rapport we've built up. I imagine this could make someone who we don't know, and don't have the same rapport with, feel like they're being ignored or discounted, even it's just that they need time to get to know everyone.
It also means that we have a certain amount of reputation here, with each other, for speaking and debating in a certain way, and having certain beliefs that we defend. So, if someone attacks someone else on the forum for something that they didn't or wouldn't say, or because they took offense at something that the rest of us know they didn't mean in the way that person took it, or something like that, we might have the tendency to defend each other, which could look like ganging up to a new person.
people just need to put a little more effort to fit in.
Look at me, I've been in this forum for over 3 years, yet I've only began posting on the RB and offtopic in general for less than a year. In less than 6 months I've built up a nice friendship with a lot of people I didn't even knew before (Since I usually used to stick to Lore&RP and General).
I do my best to make new posters feel welcome (Such as Doyakiin and Iidioteque) but newcomers must also do their share to belong. Honestly, anyone can belong here in the RB =)

I'm still not sure if I should count the Dragon's Den(and by extension Shark Tank) as a guilty pleasure or not...I mean it's a reality tv show, but it's about people trying to get investments for their companies/machines/inventions...yet, I love watching the panels cut down the people heh.
