All your Burninate is belong to us.

 If you're really enthusiastic, you can rank them, because all but two are to a degree hobbies of mine.

Append "And people who are not stupid" to the quotes one.

 There's this

Huge, Glaring, Big Bug

about clans

(darnit, I'm lazy), but the issue is, I won't post it yet. I'll wait 'til FaF is released. This isn't a practical joke. I'm just posting this here so I won't forget to post it later.

[edit]Oops, move to Bugs please.

 If you're really enthusiastic, you can rank them, because all but two are to a degree hobbies of mine.

 Take a look at Retto's signature:

The Golden Leaf Inn | The Vulpine Imperium | Redwall: Warlords | Upcoming: the Golden Leaf Inn

Including links to all these different websites is surely considered advertising.
I know they're Redwall realted, but so are MANY other links people try post and get in trouble for. For example links to warbands. Not allowed according to Retto, and yet he is allowed to link to Vulpine Imperium?

 If this is a weekend, I /must/ go!
Devari, take note, this should be really interesting to go to...

 We're still waiting.
In fact, let's set a time limit. If Retto doesn't respond until, say, January 7 (one week after hols) then we report RWL?
Ideas, folkies?

 OK, what is up yet again...?
1. What has been decided about new admins/mods?
2. Why hasn't Ad retired?

If Ad says he has retired, then let him do that and not trick us. He should retire. Or he should say he will not. Let's be straight, here.

About the first point, nothing was promised although I heard that some things were decided...
If you ask Retto, both are in the process of "happening". Ad is ''in the process'' of retiring. Come on? Nothing takes this long.... or something is messed up.

 PM from Retto:

This is a notice of your first warning, for spamming and being general idiots whom I have to deal with too much.

You have up to three warnings of this sort before you will be gagged.

Ok, so what is spam? And where have we done it?

 Well, who did use the blue swastika as aircraft markings? I'm just wondering about something....

 So, if you could add any feature or make any change to BAX, what would it be?  

 In the beginning, there was Boze. And Boze said, "Let there be RWL." And on the second hour, there was RWL. And Boze saw that it was good. And some saw that it was Promisance, and all liked it. And on the seventh day, Boze rested, and he hired Retto and Stormclaw to be Admins Eternal of the RWL.
And after one thousand players registered, Retto said, "Let there be DEX". And there was DEX. But then came the Nevadacow, and he quoth "Where indeed is the Source Code?" And then spake Retto: "Ye shalt download it from Xepher."
And then said Retto, "Let there be BAX" And there was BAX, and Retto saw that it was good, although Beatles saw that it was DEX. And then said Beatles, "Verily, where is the Source Code? for on Xepher art the Old Source." And then did Retto fall, for he quoth "I shall not release the Source Code."
And a mighty argument raged for seven days and seven nights, and Retto emerged victorious. And verily Retto said that the Source Code would not be distributed, "until we've got the bugs fixed". But then, alas, the Boze said "He will not release it." And we know that when Admins say something, it goes for all Admins. Thus is the RWL Administrations Utter Correctness Always upheld.
But the Beatles was not defeated.
For nine days and nine nights he browsed the licenses distributed with ye Promisance. And on the ninth morning, when all hope had fallen, he found ye NEWLICENSE, which had escaped his notice. It was bundled in the niches of the Promisance. And the Beatles rejoiced, and a chill fear (Ed note.. the chill fear isn't yet, it's only to-come.)
For this is what the Beatles read:

? ? ?Promisance Public License Agreement
? ? ? ? Revision 03.11.2002

Guidelines for use of the Promisance source code included in this archive:
* Modifications of the source code must be re-distributed as a whole (unless there are licensed libraries involved
?that would violate those individual license agreements to re-distribute) and must include the "CREDITS" file.
?In short: If you alter the code, you have to let other people see it too.

Verily, then, the BAX would open up to the masses its Source Code. For a power more great and terrible than Boze or Retto was at work: the ancient and terrible License Agreement.


(Ed. note. I don't mind about the source, but I was right, by golly. Tata 'til January!)


I find this entirely, compellingly, and totally hilarious:

Never give out your password or credit card number in an instant message conversation.

hey

I am currently away from the computer.

John says:
zoow.
Wen says:
"unless there are licensed libraries involved"
John says:
Yeah
Wen says:
yeah
John says:
Yeah
John says:
OK, going Yeah is pretty pointless.
John says:
Are you saying you've got libraries licensed not under the GPL that you use in Promisance?
Wen says:
you got a definition of a licensed library?

Retto.... well... Retto... well. Retto. Retto.. HAHAHAHAHAH! Retto!


[Merging a double post in a sweet and innocent manner, if possible.]

 Retto's too alone in his job, right? Get someone with him there. This is a big site, can't you get competent admins?
Note, this follows a conversation with Holby, Vera, Peace, and myself. We agreed on:
Stormclaw: not here
Ragefur: not here
Boze: rarely seen
Shael: does nothing - could have stayed a mod
Ad: does harm rather than good
Retto: decent(est) administrator

So... think about it.


[edit]Sorry I have to break the opinion to you... or frankly not sorry.

 Yes, the lyrics, anyways, here they are for your benefit now.

---The Ballad of Kilk and Shael---
Standing in the dock in Southsward
Trying to get to Warbands or VI
Admin in Mac said, you gotta go back
You know they didn't even give ads a chance

Oh, You know it ain't easy,
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
They're gonna murder me

Finally made the boat into Terrouge
RPing down by the forum
Wolf Bite called to say,
You can make it OK
You can get married in the fort in the North

Oh, You know it ain't easy,
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
They're gonna murder me

Sailed from VI to the GD Forums
RPing straight for a week
The RNN said, Say whatcha doing RPing
I said, we're only trying to get us a life

Oh, You know it ain't easy,
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
They're gonna murder me

Saving up all your stoats for an ambush day
Sending all your aid to the noobs
Last night the wife said,
Oh boy when you fall
You meet the same rats
You met goin' up, Think!

Made a lightning trip to GD
Eating long sigs in a bag
The RNN said, she's gone to his head
They look just like two pansies in drag

Oh, You know it ain't easy,
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
They're gonna murder me

Caught an early skiff back to the North
Fifty weasels tied in a sack
The RNN said, we wish you success
It's good to have the both of you back

Oh, You know it ain't easy,
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
They're gonna murder me
The way things are going
They're gonna murder me




---A Hard Turn's Wait---
Badarababang-dang
It's been a hard turn's wait, and I been playing like a dog
It's been a hard turn's wait, I should be almost logging off
But when I get to your land, I find the things I can do
Will make me feel all right

You know I play all day, to get skiffs to break your guards
And it's worth it just to watch my land jump and make me everything
So why on earth should I wait, 'cause when I hit you and break
You know I feel OK

When I build, everything seems to be right
When I'm there, raising my guards so high, high

It's been a hard turn's wait, and I been playing like a dog
It's been a hard turn's wait, I should be almost logging off
But when I get to your land, I find the things I can do
Will make me feel all right owww!

So why on earth should I wait, 'cause when I hit you and take
You know I feel OK

When I've got guards, everything seems to be right
When I've got guards, feeling my net jump, jump

It's been a hard turn's wait, and I been playing like a dog
It's been a hard turn's wait, I should be almost logging off
But when I get to your land, I find the things I can do
Will make me feel all right
You know I feel all right
You know I feel all right




---I Should Have Done Better---
I should have done better 'gainst Romans like you
And I'd have to plot more than you do
And I do, hey hey hey, and I do

Whoa oh, I never realized what a clan could be
This could only happen to me
Can't you see, can't you see

That when I tell you that I break you, oh
Your clan's gonna break me too, oh
And when I try to plot your fall
You're gonna kill me off, kill me off

So I should have done better 'gainst Romans like you
If this is Rome you gotta give me more
Give me more, hey hey hey, give me more

Whoa oh, I never realized what a clan could be
This could only happen to me
Can't you see, can't you see

That when I tell you that I break you, oh
Your clan's gonna break me too, oh
And when I try to plot your fall
You're gonna kill me off, kill me off
Kill me off, kill me off
Kill me off

 [Ah, as you know quite well, it is, Beatles.]


[Edit: First of all it's not Beatles... and second... what about  http://www.redwallwarlords.com/forums/index.php?a...t=0&#entry54379 eh? My few lines of text are not ok, but it's ok to have 2 flashing banners and at least a few paragraphs for like what, 4 days in a row. Thanks]

[Edit (Retto): I'm more lax about stopping RPG sites, but as I see you are aggrivated about it, I will trim it down. And if you aren't Beatles, you should really stop him from posting on your account]

[Edit: (Vera): Thank you. I see no reason to stop him]
