The Back Room

I won't make the same mistakes as last time!

I at least I've been working on controlling myself... Which is going pretty well (OoO)

 

 

 

 

Now just to figure out why a certain Christmas present/request still bothers me...

Yes, I'm going to have to agree with you on this one. When you put it like that, it definitely seems like a bad way to handle it. I just don't want to see what caused the Back Room to fall to repeat itself, hence why I felt the need to have at least some sort of minor restrictions. I'll rephrase my "restrictions".

 

I still feel a new thread may be in order, maybe not. But more importantly, I still feel the restriction of game discussion and creation should stay in the Fireplace. That's one thing I think we'll both agree on though. (Not sure if that's really a "restriction" or just common sense)

Its the purpose of the Fireplace.

I don't think game discussions should be 'restricted to the Fireplace', but if an idea develops in another thread, or in the Backroom, then the suggestion should be made to have it moved to the Fireplace.

If the discussion is on the Backroom then it should be moved as soon as the mod becomes aware of it.

If the discussion is on another thread in the Tavern then the Mod should post, asking if they (the poster and/or thread creator) want the discussion moved to the Fireplace. Unless they say no it should be moved after twenty four hours (Or if they agree*).

 

(*the post creator is more there to go 'I don't want another idea on my thread' rather than to agree, obviously =P)

 

 

 

Really, the Backroom just needs to be modded, and posted on, responsibly :thumbup: . When responsibility breaks down there will be a frackus*.

So...

...The Backroom exists as an area for Taverners, and others, to exchange thoughts and feelings about the world, it is expected that topics discussed with provoke exchange, and not simply by the world according to the poster. Please be mindful of other people's feelings and request Iey's attention if you think the discussion is causing a problem and she will come to a considered view and may recommend a two day hiatus on further discussion of the same issue.

 

(Iey is reminded that this is the Tavern and it may/will probably occur that the people involved feel that she has treated them unfairly, or agreed with the other side, and so it may be a good idea to open a Private Message discussion between herself and the involved parties, if people complain, so that complaints can be logged without spilling into wider circles.)

(The Tavern is reminded that Iey is a human being and may make mistakes. They are also reminded that the other Taverners are human beings and some of them are very stubborn.)

 

*The main problem we are having now is that the Backroom was operating as it was intended to, Mather and Lei were discussing things. The problem was that other people didn't like said discussion, and we can't justify closing down other people's discussions just because we don't like them without abandoning freedom of speech, ect.

Well I knew you wouldn't agree. I know how you hate facing facts.

I think that personally it is quite probable that I have progressed beyond human and am the first of a superior being, the next stage in human evolution.

 

Edit: No new thread, Iey?

And so, instead of making a whole new thread, I have re-opened The Back Room for all off-topic discussion here in the Tavern. I have also moved all of the recent off-topic posts in The Fireplace to here to clear out the thread, as well as to put some space in between the posts that led to The Back Room's locking, and it's re-opening. I trust you all will be able to handle it this time, so enjoy!

 

P.S. Must follow the Tip.it rules, etc etc etc etc. Also, if you don't mind, I would like to ask that all serious discussion about Tavern games be posted in The Fireplace so that such posts do not get overlooked in The Back Room. :)

 

@Res: I figure it's best just to use the old thread. I may rename it to The Back Room ver2.0 though. Although not sure if that idea is just silly or not.

I forgot to change the thread description. My bad.

If ever met a future or past version of myself that was roughly the same age as me, I would fight him for the lulz. Is this [bleep]ed up?

It would only be possible to fight a future version of yourself since it is clear that a past version of yourself won't have mastered time travel unless you go back to fight a past version of yourself.

I don't care how I met that version of myself, the key point is the fight.

I mean I'm hella narcissistic when it comes to that sense of the word, so one'd expect me to make out with myself or something like that. But no, I'd fight myself until I was knocked out or broke my hand.

 

But then again I don't make sense, when I sprained my hand by punching my wall out of anger, I only felt proud.

 

Or perhaps I'm just that violent/angry a person.

 

 

Anyways, just enjoying my website, I'd post a link but there's not a single video on there that isn't copyrighted. :wink:

Also the domain name has a suffix that Tip.It relates to fraudulence.

Legit, but I don't really play it.

It's a REALLY big shaft.

I didn't catch fire, I used the can of hairspray as a flamethrower and pointed it at my arm.

how are you going to ignore my posts when I'm offering to let you live as my vassal in two weeks time?

No, competing with yourself is not screwed up.

Though fighting the future version is probably a bad idea...unless you know they had just eaten or something :thumbup:

 

Personally, make love, not war.

So maybe me thinking you are not screwed up is because I am screwed up...Though I figure kissing yourself is less silly than staring at yourself, looking confused.

 

 

That and get next weeks lottery numbers, or give last weeks to the past me.

 

 

 

As to being violent...Endorphins from the pain in your hand could give a feeling of elation, which means making you feel good, as such you feel proud of making yourself feel good.

Or you feel that you achieved something momentous by damaging your body...Probably similar to people who feel proud of themselves for having endured some grueling test of physical fitness...or pain endurance.

I knew someone who felt proud that they had trained themselves to endure thumbscrews for 2 turns longer than when they started.

Well I knew you wouldn't agree. I know how you hate facing facts.

I do indeed still log on, occasionally.

Oh the hilarity, a butter crisis.

 

Do people not know that butter doesn't go off for months? (Assuming it is refrigerated and such)

 

As for critising the Norwegian market structure (as someone from the Norwegian Bussiness School is doing)...I find it tremendously entertaining that Germany is considering a montetary union(Like the Euro, but not the Euro, since that is doomed) with Norway(And the other solvent countries in Europe) if the Euro collapses.

 

The Krone and the Norwegian economy is actually one of the strongest ones at the moment...largely due to not following America and Britian into rampant speculation and supposedly massive unending growth, but rather Germany and China with the focus on exports and producing goods, with steady growth.

 

 

I rather fear for the world today, when this makes World News =P
