Goodbye to the backroom

[Oleander Ardens]

I just wanted to say goodbye to the Orgahs of the backroom, as I won't be no longer a poster in this part of the Guild, bare a respones or two in this thread. Perhaps I still write something in the ETW sector. It was nice as long it lasted

[rory_20_uk]

OK. Why?

[LittleGrizzly]

Rory summed up my thoughts nicely...

most members like to leave all dramatically with a big announcement, a series of accusations and alot of criticism... kadagar style...

but this is a bit empty, wheres the emotion.. the recriminations..

[Kralizec]

I hope to see you pop around some time. I enjoyed some of your posts about economics and stuff, though I usually don't post in such threads to hide my ignorance.

Why?

Seconded?

[Louis VI the Fat]

Goodbye Oleander! Take care.


I do second the motion for more drama and slamming doors! I demand you return to each and every single post you've ever made here and edit them to all to, say:
'Not enough censorship around here!!1!' , or
'I hate you all! I HATE YOU ALL!', or
'The evil bats that are hovering around my head made me do this!'

Another honest backroomer lost to the tyrannical mods.

I demand that we draw up a constitution!

Finally, the third estate will rise to prominance, no longer will the ordinary Orgah be subdued. The tyrannical mods, representing the first estate, will be removed from power - Tosa's henchmen will oppress us no longer, for there is no King without the Bishops Administrator without the Mods. The landed interests of the Senior members will be eliminated, destroying the second estate. The greatest power will no go to the greatest number, isn't Bentham happy!

Meanwhile, from now on, all those registered in the eyes of the site shall be called 'Gentlemen', after the manner of the citizens of the Venetian Republic; while all will have the powers traditionally held by Assistant Moderators, the wicked priests to the episcopalian Moderators.

With all members able to 'correct' each others posts, the collective will of the Backroomers will leave no text protected from our righteous crusade, and all posts will reflect the revolutionary sentiments of the average Orgah!

[Kralizec]

Uhm, so we're going to write up a constitution first and then devolve into an anarchist society?

This post has been noted, and will be corrected in due course...

I hate it when the Third Estate gets uppity and seeks to make revolution against the order ordained by divinity.

I suggest you state your grievances through the proper channnels. Then we'll look into them. Until then, I'm afraid I must assume you are, frankly, simply envious of the title and priveidges of us Senior Members.

How about you devote your energy on trying to raise your pityful self to our level instead of trying to bring us down?

Sorry to hear you go. I won't ask for the reason because if you felt it was necessary you would have shared, but I do hope it's not because anyone in particular. Thick skin is a must on this forum as I've learned.

I will fight you with my radical contractarian ideology!

As Francois Hotman will tell you, the absolutist Tosa has abused the power given to him by God, stealing it from the power given to the estates in the time of the early Frankish kings.

The recent oppression of our revolutionary ideal is a rebellion against natural law, and in turn a revolt against God!

Only the people are sovereign, and now is our time! Long live the revolution! (random pic of vandalism)

Goodbye.

Hahaha!

sorry, but

How about you try to make that splendid sovereignty felt in your pigsty, eh? See if you can run that properly first and then we'll talk.

Until then, tell it it to flies, peasant.

Our pigs will bathe in your bathtubs. There is no nobility any more, only fat merchants purchasing titles from Tosa as he desperatey raises funds for his hackings into the TWC...

Well... bye, and all the best. I hope your reasons for leaving are not of the negative kind; things tend to get heated in the Backroom but it is almost never personal. I hope to see you in the more relaxed and non-confrontational atmosphere of the ETW forum soon.

[Rhyfelwyr]

The others forums aren't controversial enough for me anymore... I tend to spend increasingly more time here, much to everyone's delight.

Many enter the Backroom, but few ever leave.

[CountArach]

Bye!

I'm with Louis on this one. Mnay of us have ben promoted to Senior Members, showing we are in fact a Meritocracy! The system works, face it.

Even true revolutionaries can be corrupted by power...

I know. They should never have allowed in trade.

Ahh, CA... I remember you when you were a young revolutionary and look at you now.

kadagar left?

Yes my avatar brother (have i ever told you that i sometimes begin reading your posts as if they my own because of the avatar ?) he recieved an infraction and was most displeased.... all the drama's in the backroom watchtower... almost as good as an episode of corrie...

I do second the motion for more drama and slamming doors!

At least that way there was something there... some hatred.... some love... some passion...

[Strike For The South]

Im a senior member!!!

[CountArach]

Im a senior member!!!

more proof of the natural superiority of our title.

Aye we should start a club.

[Redleg]

The backroom is like crack - you become addicted and when you get all strung out on it, you promise yourself to leave and never come back.

But like any addict you become drawn to the flame of your demise and you often return, unless of course you do like a few and leave the org completely.

You got to go cold turkey or you find yourself drawn back to your addiction

[LittleGrizzly]

Speaking from experience there redleg ?

[Redleg]

Not at all - I have never proclaim that I was leaving the org or the backroom. But I have watched many make such a claim and continue to return if they remain member.

A few have successful removed themselves from their addiction to the backroom, but not me, I just have slowed down my addiction to a few drafts compared to my previous addiction.

[LittleGrizzly]

I have seen alot of people do it, its why i wouldn't do it myself.... even if there was something that had angered me i would leave quietly... and probably return quickly...

The backroom does have this qaulity that draws you in, i find its the people making statements that i just can't let stand... i have to say something...
