Soon, everything will be in place for the final part of my plan - but first I have to spend 8 years discrediting white nationalism by letting Trump rule the United States.

Really sorry about that; I promise it'll only be a temporary inconvenience.


Tell that to the people who died because of said white nationalism.

Also, I wasn't talking Trump. I can stay closer to home.

The UKs incompetence is good enough here :)


It'll all work out in the end, Blaat; you'll just have to trust me.

And besides, cheer up; thing are much better in Europe now than they were during the Plague of Justinian!

I remember how hard it was to resist spamming Moderation before I was a mod. Even after I was a mod, there are some threads where I really have to restrain myself so I don't clutter up the forum with frivolous posts.


I spammed Moderation once and that was it. :P

With that said, yeah, it is quite an entertaining read, and also gives you daily reminders of why or how you can avoid trouble. If I see someone commenting on Moderation without providing information or being the reported, I know some stuff is about to go down.

Oh dear, prepare for a long list:

I like watching videos of planes crashing until 2 or three months before I fly

Watching horror movies

Talking to myself (and I do that a lot)

Speaking while typing (but then without any sound and with my mouth closed)

Making a cracking noise in my throat (it became a addiction)

Collecting flags, and foreign money

In my home I only use English, and on internet

I come up with in-depth and intricate stories in my head, but never write them down. I can't, it just doesn't translate. I could have a fantastic idea for a story, open a word document and...nothing. I just get slapped in the face with impenetrable writer's block, which lifts the moment I step into the shower, or am in the car.

And I collect geodes. they're pretty.

turning what should have been a short history about this nation and turning it into a 100+ page Game of Thrones meets Star Wars. IDK don't ask me I just have a habit of taking short stories and blowing them up into full blown novels.
