I've received no indication of his wishes concerning the interim moderation/insurrection (depending on how you want to look at it) of Terrestrial, so proceeding as usual, except now sometimes I'll split threads or move posts, as I've learned how to do those things.

Okay. Thank you for your service and for the time and effort you do put into board management. You're not perfect but you're all we got.

I did receive a response from Shades about the moderator issues. He may want to move forward with something, but only after he returns to the board, which he plans to do "soon" (as of a couple days ago). He wants to make sure any changes are done completely fairly, and oversee them himself.

I think his real struggles right now eclipse the urgency of his Internet project. Hopefully, people don't feel their Internet board crisis Trump's his real life struggles.

However, for this thread in particular, since now there is a telestial version, please use that for cursing and sexual innuendo and trash talk. I probably won't take the time to move future posts from here to there and just delete.
I can't thank you enough, Gad.

Absolutely. We wish him well. When he’s ready, we will welcome him back with open arms.

We're talking less than intellectual finger paint here.

You haven't missed anything of interest.

Well maybe pizza and beer or something someday.

Actually, on second thought, your resume is perfect. Not being moderator material is better than being moderator material. I hereby resubmit your name in the name of all that is holy and good and for the good of the queen, especially the queen that is the kind of queen that Shulem likes, whatever that may be.

I like them young. Yes I do! I could tell you stories! I've been a very bad boy -- considering my track record. No worries though, always must be 18+, even if it's by only a few weeks. A man has to know his limitations (Clint Eastwood).

See Cultellus, you can't use a Google Image search and get this sort of accuracy. You've got to develop the sight.

That's a good one and very creative in the moment.

Well done.

Clearly, the ayes have it. A moderator team will be assembled.
