There's one thing wrong with your assessment, Shroud, and that is that Loogs didn't "leave by unanimous vote". What I mean is, we didn't all get together and decide to banish her from Archie Exie. The demotion was put into place after a majority vote (I don't even think the vote against Loogs was unanimous; see the following quote from Lee in the Staff Purge of '08 article on the wiki:), but we definitely weren't trying to exile any of them. It was their totally justified, but also totally independent choice to leave. I just wanted to clear that up 'cuz I don't want us staff members to look like bigger assholes than we are (our baseline level of assholery is high enough without that).

Lee, I never said that the vote told them to leave. I don't know/remember about damien or babs, but i knw that loogs left because she felt it was an unfair demotion (even after you explained to her that even if it wasn't for the vote, having an admin who can't be there to do his/her job is almost completely pointless).
Anyway, as Kuro and everyone else said, welcome back anyway ^^

So yeah, welcome back. Any new This Little Kingdom coming out by any chance? Absolutely. Expect new characters, less inside jokes, more violence and sharper wit. But you have to wait six days until I'm back in the States. Miranda(laptop) has all the sprite sheets and stuff. Also I don't have a mouse anymore. A mouse would sure help.

Hey Loogs (or Kuro, whichever of you see this first), what's this "This Little Kingdom" that Kuro is asking you about?

Uh... That's not what you told me. To me, it seemed like you left simply because by unanimous vote, you and babs got demoted from your lack of activity here. But anyway. How interesting. A bunch of the posts before my last post here, I don't seem to remember before... wtf? Babs and Luugs got demoted due to generally fishyness things. More than half probably related to me. Babs left because...well, when he's not an admin he's not anything else on the boards either. EDIT - ^ The above reffering more to the fact that confontation more than administration was the inevitable result of pretty much either of these admins taking any action. They both have a penchant for mico-management, where-as Pohatu and Lee both keep their hands well out of it unless they need to crack some heads. ^ (Just adding this to make sure my opinion comes across as neutral and not in any way an attack on Loogz or Babs. Luugz I personally think left because she was pissed off. Though I won't maintain that argument if she wants to say no, because arguing with Luugz is stupid. (We'll assume this is because I think 'Luugz is always right' cuz that'll make her happy.) As for leaving by unnanimous vote, Gilgamesh and myself are the only ones holding that dubious honor. Gil actually deserved it, I got booted because I seriously lost my temper when I shouldn't have, and went on a major league wobbly the likes of which even Mr Bean would applaud. (EDIT - This means I deserved a slap upside the the head, and a serious time out, but I still think the permanent ban with chance of parol a year in the future was over harsh. A timelapse ban of 2 months would've probably been enough for me to cool off and keep my mouth shut, but the staff here seem to like to do things a little overharsh.) As Loogs, no where in this topic has DL posted...so why are you refferencing him? Also, no one knows if you're alive and well on the internet if you're not on exy. This is pretty much the only place we all have in common, besides MSN, and I seem to be one of few on the site who actually is on MSN with any regularity. EDIT 2 Note - Shrouded, "Left By Unanimous Vote" means "Banned" No matter how you try to dress it...

I feel the need to rampage through the boards and delete shit again. Hmm...
There is a very strong possibility that I am joking here.

They both have a penchant for mico-management, where-as Pohatu and Lee both keep their hands well out of it unless they need to crack some heads. Wait, really? Wow, no way, I'm all about micromanagement. Doing things like carting topics over to different boards if I think they've been misplaced. You know? That's pretty micromanagerial. I definitely think I evolved to replace Baboon in that regard. (But, like Lee and unlike Baboon, I've maintained a pretty consistently strong public image ever since joining the board. I definitely don't "work from the shadows," as Lee has described Baboon's activity.)

Lugiasian, I highly enjoy the visual representation of your avatar.
I love Jim Morrison. Almost homosexually.

Man without Led Zep, rock would have lost so much of its inspiration and innovation. We'd still get all the emo crap we have today, but then devoid of anything good.

It's not entirely subjective, too. Emo and punk don't really often cite Led Zep as a major influence. Pop sure as hell doesn't receive much classic rock influence.
Metal bands do. Progressive bands do.
Without metal you lose grunge. Without grunge you lose alternative. Without progressive you lose people attempting to be the best musician in their class.
Pretty good times.
