If you read parting shots, Dalton summed up TRR's infractions well. And following the link, you can see TRR was in full "If you don't agree with me you're Nazis!"Lord Revan wrote: ↑2023-02-06 09:07amCould be, he could be quite a drama queen when things didn't go 100% like he wanted them to go.
I don't approve new members, so I have no say over if TRR gets to come back. As of the board state right now, I doubt he will.

I should also point out, we're coming up on your 20th anniversary on this board.
I've been asked why I still follow a few of the people I know on Facebook with 'interesting political habits and view points'.
It's so when they comment on or approve of something, I know what pages to block/what not to vote for.

Yeah I remember back in the 1990s when 2020 seemed so long ago and we're 3 years past it now.

Re: The Board Members You Miss Thread
Well 30-20 years sounds like an eternity when you're 8-18 years old, obviously it's not that long on hindsight but hey I wasn't exactly an adult for most of that. (I'm born in 1982 so I would have been 7-8 in 1990 as I'm born late in the year).

Re: The Board Members You Miss Thread
Prince's song "1999" got so big because in the 1980s the year 2000 was FOREVER. Who was going to be living in 2020? Most people never thought we'd survive to 2001! Russia was still the USSR. The Iron Curtain still stood. We could be nuked to hell before 2000, much less 2020!!Lord Revan wrote: ↑2023-02-07 05:45pmYeah I remember back in the 1990s when 2020 seemed so long ago and we're 3 years past it now.
And here, 2023, we're wondering if the remains of the USSR will shoot nukes out of a dictator's petty pride.

A bit of a weird one, but I miss Nyrath. Not only does he not post here anymore, its been a long time since he updated Atomic Rockets. I understand he has had cancer and other health problems, so its understandable, I just hope he doesn't end up as a Hall of Memory entry any time soon.

Romulan could be very strident and aggressive; that said he made some fair points and given just how bugfuck crazy things have gotten (the Insurrection, Sinema and Manchin being assholes) there was truth to what he said.

Oh he did. There's no question. He was overly combative and seemed to value being right more than diplomacy.

Holy shit! The author of Atomic Rocket used to post here? I have about 4 tabs open to Atomic Rocket right now. Love that place. It's kinda like TVtropes but with much better stuff. You can really get lost on that site and come out 8 hours later wondering why it's dark outside. Hope that site never goes down. I've put a couple of books on my "to read list" thanks to him. Hope he's still alive and kicking (and paying for www.projectrho.com).Formless wrote: ↑2023-02-15 05:19am A bit of a weird one, but I miss Nyrath.

Really depends on the subreddit size. It has to get niche for it though. Even the Daystrom and Maw subreddits are really too big for it.
The subreddits I spend much of my time on definitely have a cast of regulars, the problem is occassionally someone sends up a bat signal and then you get a lot of traffic attacking/downvoting you.
"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."
