II needs emoticons.
We used to have them. ;(
This is the sole survivor:
Can’t we use words to emote?
We are supposed to be writers, after all.
But when we are to lazy to emote through words, emoticons would be nice.
@Puppet
How’d you make that weird little emoticon?
You guys still haven’t figured it out?
Oh no. Of course we figured it out. We’re just asking for the benefit of everyone else, you see.
I know the secret!
Congratulations. :P
Thank you. :P
I still don’t. :(
You just hotlink to the image.
Oh, duh. Facepalm I thought he really had some keystrokes that mad an emoticon.
Corsair got hacked again, unless he just rolled into uber dickweed mode.. which seems unlikely.
Ho, boy, yeah, uber hack.
First thought: I wonder why Corsair keeps getting hacked.
Second thought: Eww.
God damn it.
I’m taking care of it. Sorry I caught this so late—thanks, Devin.
@Corsair: thanks to your uber-hardcore password-concocting skillz (or your flawless judgement in trusting ppl and friendly bots with your password), I came back from a week’s absence and found some fresh pr0n to puke at while I ate breakfast… very tasteful!
;)
Alright, everyone, I think that’s it. They should be all gone. Corsair’s been banned. If I missed any, I apologise. Tell me, and I’ll get to it as soon as I can.
I wouldn’t call those…images porn. Porn is meant to turn you on, not gross you out.
Nayce. I can’t believe this happened twice.
I’m curious as to how bad this porn was to make people puke and go blind.
Was it bestiality?
It was bestiality, wasn’t it?
I also would be perversely interested to know that.
Strangely, so am I. Knowing trolls, may I presume it was old fat men?
AGAIN?!
Yay for Elanor!!
Edit: We need more mods.
I second the motion.
deformed babies
Honestly?!
I saw the whole thing. It’s basically just a massive compilation of every shock image out there. Please don’t ask for specifics. And no one in their right mind would call it pornography.
Yeah I saw it begin too.
How many mods / admins do we have?
7, but 3 of them aren’t active at all, swenson and Lord Snow aren’t on very often, so it’s pretty much RVL and Nate, plus Elanor and Jeni.
I was watching a movie last night, and so couldn’t get on… :( Sorry guys.
I’m on all the time, and I have editor permissions for the front of the site, but not on the forums.
Was it like the Pain Series?
Looks like I missed some fun times.
BUT, there are some raspberries downstairs waiting for me. :D
Raspberries! While the rest of us had to sit through that.. jaws open, retinas melting..
I figure it was like last time, so this time it was someone else’s chore to clear up.
Looks like karma works. :D
Heh, but this was waay worse than last time. Elanor is a trooper.
This is the second time Elanor’s cleaned up this sort. She’s a super trooper.
hums Abba song
Well,I actually pity the soul of the guy who hijacked Corsair:how hard must it have been to collect all those colorful images?
Persons like that troll are numb to that bullshit. If it was difficult for them to even look at the gross stuff, they certainly wouldn’t be hacking accounts and posting them.
I read somewhere that trolls have the mentality of someone with Aspberger’s – they can’t empathize, so it doesn’t seem wrong to them to, say, take a picture of someone’s credit card on their mobile.

Eh, I wouldn’t say that Asperger’s people can’t empathise—I know people with Asperger’s and they can empathise perfectly well. shrugs Differing degrees of severity, I suppose.
Sorry, everybody. I was gone for the week and no access to a computer, so I couldn’t do anything with my mod powers.
XD Now I’m super curious about what all of these pictures were…
Probably the Pain Series, which I won’t link to.
Yeah, it was Pain Series.
I’m not even going to ask what that was, as I do not need something else to keep me awake at night.
What is the link to get into the back end of the site? With all the articles and such..?
You mean just a solid list of all the articles published on II?
No, like the back end where you submit articles. And where I can edit them. =D

I have Asperger’s syndrome, and I would never do that.
Er, Brandon, I think you’re replying in the wrong thread.
Jeni said I should let you guys know I’m still alive. Well, I am.
Hey, that’s good. Just how alive are you?
Back already?
I’m at about 37% aliveness. And I’m actually not back yet. Will be by Saturday evening. Expect to see some more fun site stuff by then. Although there’s something secret I’m working on, on the side… sneakily withholding information
/shocked
I should be privy to all this info. How many people are more veteran than I am? :D
Me?
No, you were here before me, but I think I might have been here longer, if you count your little vacation in between. But Saturday’s not too long to wait.
But I’m glad that Sly’s back! The site has not been very lively, except for a few articles here and there. All the fun’s happening here, but I think we have enough to spread it out a bit.
True. I remember joining only a few weeks after the site went up, but people from DEM were here way longer than that. Oh well.
Same. I thought II was pretty established, but apparently not.
I’m thinking I might start doing book reviews, and was also thinking of starting with Discworld. However its quite well known already, so should I review something a little less well known?
No no, do Discworld; I’d be totally interested in that. ;)
Glad to know you haven’t died yet Sly. :D
We had a burial shroud ready and everything…it was covered with grinning imps in straitjackets.
stashes away
but people from DEM were here way longer than that. Oh well.
Gawd, yeah, he had his bitches do what he wanted. :D
What is DEM?
And Sly’s back! Sort of! Yay!
Lol, I’m sort of like the site bimbo. I know nothing, I just sit around, make obvious remarks, and (of course) look pretty.

And very good you are at it too.
I believe that DEM was/is a forum used by many II members before this site was made.
First there was IMDb, where the anti-shurtugals came (I think Gaia was also a place, but I never went there). Then there was livejournal. Much fun and snark was had. Then there was Anti-Shurtugal Forums. Which split into Dog-Eared Forums and Uru’Baen Forums. And then there was Magic Sword Forums, which turned into Deus Ex Machina Forums. From that came II. And then there was carrotstick.
</impromtu history>
DEM is very small now. :(
Thanks, Jeni! Now I know!
Please excuse me while I fetch some carrotsticks.
As far as old people who are still active here, Sly, Jeni, Spanny, Rocky, SWQ, me.. who else? I know there is someone else in that list.
Hah, yeah, three years. Doesn’t seem all that long now. Well, more like three and a half, I guess.
Technically, it’s me, Spanman, Rocky, Elanor and mebbe Dr. A, Sly didn’t join for ages. XD Oh, and Corsair, and Kitty, but she’s run away to the Lost Forests of Lost.
Ah yes.
So, me, Sly, Spanny, Rocky, SWQ, Elanor, CB (sort of), Dr. A, Corsair.. where did Kitty go?
Wait, are we talking AS or II? :S
II, durh.
And Rhaego…and Legion…and that’s all I’ve got.
Well, we’re factoring in people who are still here. Is Rhaego here under a new name?
Wasn’t it the Angel Islington? He comes on like once in a blue moon sometimes.
Oh really? I can’t keep track of everyone’s name changes. Yeah I see him on occasionally.
II, durh.
You changed the topic without telling me. XP
Incorrect, I was referring to II the whole time.
DEM is very small now. :(
Even then? :D
This makes me feel young and nooby.
This makes me feel so old. XD I believe the term was “Ye Olde Ones” and I got shuffled into that group.
Whoo!
Even then? :D
What?
As far as old people who are still active here, Sly, Jeni, Spanny, Rocky, SWQ, me.. who else? I know there is someone else in that list.
I was around back then, too.
I feel young. Hopefully, awhile from now, II will still exist, I’ll still be posting, and I will have improved writing-wise.
And Rhaego…and Legion…and that’s all I’ve got.
Sadly Legion has been missing in action for several months now. :/
I feel quite young too.
What happened to Lord Snow and Kitty?
Why did DEM disappear then? How did II start? How are we related to Anti-Shurtugal? I have no idea about this stuff, and I’d love to know.
We have a whole backstory that I never knew about!
It’s amazingly fascinating…
have started a thread about this, just so that we can clear up the feedback thread to make way for feedback.
