    Tasvir was more then capable of being an ass with just one arm.

    Are you admitting you're not good enough to be like him?

    Oh, you don't need both arms for trolling, no. But two arms come in handy for, let me be delicate, more private entertainments. :)

    You should know that "WF is dying!!!!" is almost as common a meme here as accusations that every new member is a dual. Pay them no mind. ;)

    Speaking of memes, has anyone warned them about the otters?

    I won't believe WF is dying until Netcraft confirms it.

    So, WF has otter memes? Shame, I prefer tapirs.

    Oh, yes. The dreaded Attack Otters (Of The Ass). I expect you'll encounter them should you stray too near the Conveyor Belt.

    Save that it is dying and has been for years. I said it was dying about 6 years ago. The death is slow and lingering, but the signs where there years ago and have been borne out, namely the stagnancy of good quality content, the general lack of new members at a consistent rate and long term posters either leaving, taking long breaks or posting less. Plus there is the general age range of the board, which is consistently aging and little younger blood coming in as the next generation. Life moves on and nothing lasts forever.

    Oh goodie.

    Another asshole who will spend every minute of the day stalking Castle around the board.

    You really don't need to come back if that is your intention, Grout.

    Just following Ancalagon's lead.

    Are you now going to follow me around taking pot shots, gul? I'm sure you can find something more useful to do.

    I'll reserve the right afforded all members to post in any thread, thank you. Maybe if you ever posted anything that wasn't a criticism of staff/Ancalagon, you'd have more credibility. If you cared about Wordforge as much as you claim, you'd be more active in posting, and less quick to tell somebody like Grout to not post.

    We don't really need Grout's kind here. We've already got Gul.

    I don't post much but I come here every day to read the bullshit of those who do. And I admit that I've posted shit for the sole purpose of pissing certain people off. And I've received my share of abuse but you can't take it seriously. I love it here. Wordforge can never die as long as assholes like us who are gluttons for punishment give as good as they get.

    I'll reserve the right afforded all members to post in any thread, on any topic, including criticism of anyone and everyone, thank you.

    As for Grout...he followed Castle here from TK to continue his stalking of him there, to stalking him here. He has participated less than Castle so fuck him.

    Oh fucking just...go to hell. Like you don't. Hell, you ostensibly own this board and the majority of your posts drive away posters. Fuck yourself.

    I do find it disappointing that long term members feel they need to make statements like this. It's frustrating that the powers that be feel that regular posters are somehow to be held to a higher standard. Bizarre. We have a situation where Anc openly says he wants to see the back of Castle, Dayton and Garamet and declares them toxic, but a regular member is admonished for telling someone to quit trolling or leave. Am I the only one struggling to see the difference here?

    You really need to get past the idea that Wordforge should be a place where everybody shares your politics. You and Sokar's ghost would find it a lonely place.
