Quote from: Mcrowall shot to hell and still releasing hits?

I see myself as a Shug Knight-like enforcer. Like, I probably dangle Blakkie over a balcony or something, and then I arrange to have jrients killed in Vegas.

Yah, I so picture you as the heavy hitter enforcement type. Or something.

:rolleyes:

Quote from: blakkie"You're from Edmonton? Cow-town here." <--- I guess this would be an example of something that would get stuffed in a private post there?

Yup.

And you just mark the comment as "whisper to X", and they (and only they) will see it in a funny color - looking at it on my stylesheet (you can pick your own color scheme), whispers are pink boxes.

Oh, I am SOooooo making a Story-Games gang symbol. Like two cupped hands on top of each other that spell out an "S" or something.

No inter-forum rivalry, cause that's lame, but definitely a gang symbol, because that's Awesome.

I disagree, because it's agreat excuse for a Dance Off!

rpol.net has a similar function to the whisper. Having used it for years running games over there, I often find myself missing it on other boards.

Or in my case every time you publicly post then go back and edit to make it a whisper.

For such a simple technology it's amazing how much I struggle with it.

You can submit your own questions to be answered by the Professor! I say we brainstorm something good to submit.

Like "All my players want to play is games like Dungeons and Dragons, Mutants and Masterminds and A Game of Thrones. How do I prove to them all that Nicotine Girls is better?"

Quote from: flyingmicePundit - ususally I am on your side, but I have to point out... A Mason says this?

Note; I said "assuming they're not doing initiation rituals". Masonic secrecy is mainly to protect the initiatory nature of freemasonry. If you're telling me that Storygames is actually an iniciatory school of mysticism and that they have secret mysteries that are only for those who have been through the appropriate trials, then I'll accept that (I'd think it'd be pretty fucking wierd to tie it into story-gaming, but hell.. probably no wierder than tying it into a stone-worker's union).

Somehow, though, I'm guessing that's not what goes on in there.

What you're saying here is that our utterly bizarre reasons for desiring privacy trumps their own utterly bizarre reasons for wanting privacy. It's a classic "my shit doesn't stink" position.
