Title: Where's the forum ticker?
Post by: Unknown Target on February 05, 2005, 01:34:14 pm
Is anyone else missing the "Latest topics" part on the forum main page? I really liked that, where'd it go? :)

I think Its because something from an internal forum came up on there.  It was called 'Banning An0n' and they didn't want something like that happening again.

Yeah and it happened when the forum wasn't very active so I think a lot of people saw it.  I assumed it was actually because of some of the security flaws an0n found; the internal forum threads can't be opened by any of us non-privelidged members but the thread showed up nonetheless.

Honestly, I wouldn't even notice if the main pages were gone. I jump directly on to the forum. ;)

Honestly, who gives a **** if we see what they're saying about banning an0n? We have enough off-topic debates with our admins to know what they're like personality wise, and thus how they'll react to situations like the one he created.

Really now, this isn't the Pentagon.

If you scroll down, there's a "latest topics" that shows what was being posted a year ago.

Pretty much yes. Though last time I said that I was down cried.

We also know them individually through other discussions, so as I said: we know what to expect.

No, it's that they've been entrusted to keep secret the CocaCola recipe and Windows Source code... :p

Actually I doubt any of us really care if threads such as "Banning an0n" are known to the public. It's in the staff forum because it's an issue to be discussed between the staff only - there's no great a secret to it than that :)

Think of it as the same reason the hosted projects have internal forums... they have issues they want to discuss that don't concern everyone on the forum, or that aren't for them to get involved with. So it is with us.

So now you know :)

There are some of you I've never taken seriously. However the identities of those people can never be revealed. Ever. It might crush their frail human minds when the awesome implications of it all finally hits home.

Now if you'll excuse me, I've some photography I should be getting on with. Catch you guys later :)

When they figure out how to avoid sharing any more tickle fights.

Actually the entirety of HLP is used as a secret dungeon-porn ring that Setekh and I set up some time ago. We'd rather that sort of thing didn't show up in the ticker.

Although... perhaps you're right and I'm just lying. Who knows...

Meh, we've got a pr0n dungeon elsewhere if we need it :p
