    Exactly what part of "ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wagh'nagl fhtagn!" do you not understand??

    Isn't that, "In his house at R'lyeh dead Cthulhu lies dreaming"?

        Technically yes. The deeper meanings and prophetic elements are lost unless you happen to be a fluent speaker of the Old Ones tongue. Which so few are these days....

        Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.
        -Richard Dawkins

          That one I don't know. Anyway, I have to run, there's a Hound of Tindalos after me.

            No, the moral decay is in your current policies. And your traitors are those in power. (And, perhaps, yourself, but possibly you are just very, very ignorant.)

                Hey... I said, PERHAPS! (Or is calling someone 'ignorant' off-the-mark, too? This would be surprising, otherwise I assume you would have issued a warning to people calling me an 'idiot'.)

                  Worry about yourself... and frankly, your opinon is not the important one when it comes to perceived insults... MINE IS!

                  If you want to get restricted... just keep it up.

                      I thought the Rules are what matters?

                      I´m not usually a complainer, but for a rather extreme example of (unprovoked) personal attack, I humbly direct your attention to this post...

                        Comrade :
                        Here in 'Poly, there are no laws per se. Just a bunch of principle mods may or may not follow, depending on their moods. The mods are kind of judge dredds, a tad more predictable though.
                        Their role is to let an acceptable order exist on the forum (according to the guidelines), not to exert justice.

                        In short : don't piss the mods.

                          It is a matter of the rules... and how the rules are interpreted... And I interpret them... NOT YOU.

                          You have no clue if somebody has been warned for comments made against you, so don't worry about other people, worry about YOUR OWN ACTIONS.

                          You have been warned. The next time I see you make any kind of personal attack, you will be restricted with no additional warning. And any insult will be based on my opinion, not yours.

                          Have a nice day

                              Yes... he is due. The number of complaints I have received about him have now crossed the level where action is demanded.

                              So watch it CT... you are on a very short leash now.

                              And back to the topic. Enough of this. If you have a problem with this CT you can take it up with me via PM, not that it will do you any good

                                Hm, you leave Poly for two years and you think something would've changed, but nope, it's right where I left it.
