    It's a pity that some are having a hissy fit about this before it even happens, but it wouldn't be Wordforge without the drama.

    Personally, I'm particularly looking forward to some new blood.

    So once the whole conversion takes place, will we need to do anything? Change bookmarks? Re-upload avatar files? Stand on our heads and sing "Kill da Wabbit!"...?
    Inquiring minds want to know!

    Probably just re-upload avatars and get used to the change.

    If it comes to the point where it becomes a liberal sounding board, I'll blow it up myself.

    You gotta remember that it's not just Anc and gul, it's also evenflow and Tex, who are a bit more libertarian minded.

    Now, don't lie Nick. You will be there getting your kumbyyayas out with the rest of the Hippy Caravan.

    Say goodbye to showers and shaving. And embrace becoming a pillar of perfection.

    For the good of us all. :soholy:

    And The Exception could do it, too. He has a remote kill switch in his phone. All that we are and once were disappears in a brilliant display of pyrotechnics.

    Truthfully, if you think any of the horsemen are going to be "silent" partners you are mentally retarded.

    I've saved all of them but the flags...will try to get to those this weekend, but there's like 300 of them and it's a pretty tedious process. No worries though - I'll make sure we keep :arizona: :)

    I've got to say, Nick is getting a lot better at the bloodless coup business. This time they've even got the deposed leader pretending he's on board with this.

    Little does Volpone know that all admins since Borgs have been figureheads that I have kept in place to keep the peace.
