    I was working on the assumption that you were taking a vacation from official stuff for a few weeks so didn't think anything of it.

    However...

    That is completely absurd. All you are doing there is in fact confirming the "Storm won't get in trouble because he is friends with the people in charge" claims that have been flying around.

    Storm may have not been willing to follow through on his threat, but even you admit he wanted to portray himself as being willing to. I'm saying that no-one should be banned from this whole incident, but if Gul or MarkB are for being "troublemakers" while Storm isn't, then something is seriously wrong.

    The fact gul is in no actual danger, or the fact Storm is my friend, will make any difference in the investigation of this matter, I assure you.

    I have now read all of the PMs. I wanted to be the sole one reading them in case there was some personal info in them. Nick, Tamar, and I have discussed the specifics and weighed the evidence. A game plan has been developed and I'll be replying to all of the PMs sent my way shortly. The rest will go live tomorrow evening when I get in from supper.

    This:
    . . . is about as direct as threats get. Consider how you'd react if this was Ted talking about Talkahuano rather than Storm talking about Gul.

    No, for me this crosses the line in a big way.

    Okay, how the fuck can gul be the mole? He never had A51 access, did he? Storm is trolling out of his ass and on the fly, it's pretty damn clear.

    Ok. The mole was the leaker. Read back through this thread, and you'll see who the leaker was.

    I've read it, which is why I wonder why we care at all about Storm because this:
    shows it's all just a big troll... most likely of Rosencrantz... possibly in collusion with gul, though if I was Storm, I wouldn't risk bringing gul in on it. This makes doubly good sense if Rosencrantz is DW and Storm knows it.

    Storm knows that gul can't be the mole. Gul knows he's not the mole. So... why do we care, either about gul or Storm? The only person who we should focus on is faisent.

    Causing drama, except by means covered by other rules, is not a punishable offense. And I ask again, why do we care about Storm and Rosencrantz's little feud?

    We don't care about the Storm/Rosencrantz feud.
    :borg:

    As for everything else, just hang tight, chill out, and wait for Elwood who will be clearing everything up directly after supper this evening.

    All right, I'm going to lunch. If anyone sees Lanzman, point him toward his PM box and/or the "which mods were involved in gulgate" thread starting at post 131.

    DW isn't Crosis/Rosencrantz or Gul. It doesn't even matter because they aren't important.

    Don't worry, all will be revealed and sorted later this evening. Just sit tight and wait for Elwood to get home and settle in for the night.

    I just realized that Elwood wrote that last night about tonight, not Wednesday night.

    I'm not working tonight. :shock:

    I'll get to see it sooner than I thought. :banana:

    Yup, myself and a few other mods received that pm. I held off on posting it however to give Elwood time to get through his pm backlog. It was definitely relevant to that thread though.
