Get rid of Modly state power!

[Barringtonia]

Overcome we shall
The oppression from the mods
With a mean old man

Look everyone, A Mean Old Man has no power, and will have no power, aside from the power to ramble on in his senility - the only thing that's going to happen is that we're going to take back our individual freedoms, string the Mods up from trees or line them up against walls, whichever... Stating that you're going to follow some mad old man's lust for power is about as liberal and communist as you can be,

A Mean Old Man is pretty much the first to be executed in the revolution so why you think there's anything to gain from announcing your loyalty to his dictatorship you're quite wrong,

Just saying like...

Take back our forums!

I do love this.

Oh, my poor comrades, how the exploiters have fooled you -- no blame to you, my brothers, my sisters, for how could you fight alone against the power of the international corporations that are rapidly devouring the few friendly little nation simulation sites where a spirit of true craftsmanship and pride in work done well still prevails?

But you are not alone -- we are not alone! Your mods stand shoulder to shoulder with you, chosen from among you, learning your great language and speaking with your clear accents, fighting forever against Fat, the nameless, faceless entity who would crush our spirits and bend us to his collective will!

Remember the time of darkness when we languished in limbo, not knowing from one day to the next who would feel the wrath of the "developers", unaware which finely-wrought thread would next be unravelled by their marketing madness? Max it was who led us out of that captivity, and together we have all laboured to bring forth these peaceful green forums amid a desert of empty cyber-chat.

Don't let Fat take that away from us! In our morale lies our strength! We are one, but we are many, and from all the lands on earth we come -- in Unity! Remember those glorious words which, while they may not be those of the great Singer of the Revolution, LG, nonetheless ring out as it were in his voice:

We will eat, by and by,
In that glorious land in the sky.
Work and pray, live on hay,
There'll be pie in the sky when you die!

Ah Squealer, come to speak for your masters have you, with your wily words and your persuasive powers, we know how the pigs become man!

They're all solely lusting after crushing domination people, leaders always find greater means to 'lead' whether in revolution or their inevitable grasp of grotesque state power.

Hold on to your freedoms!

It's all we have

[Eternal Yerushalayim]

Keep Modly Hands off our Threads, Posts and Healthcare! Down with Tyranny!

[Ardchoille]

Hold on to your freedoms!

Far be it from me to accuse such a noble fighter for our rights of being shilled by the bosses. But the many blows you have bravely taken in the battle may have briefly blinded you to their underhanded methods. They send their Wormtongues among us to stir up dissent, and for a time even the honest and forthright, such as yourself, may be deceived by their hissing and whispering. But I am confident that a great and generous soul such as yours will rise above their petty lies and see that we cannot succeed without unity. Let us devote our hearts and minds to that great cause, as Barringtonia has! Comrades, let this be our watchword: Unity and Barringtonia! Unity and Barringtonia! Unity and Barringtonia! *thrusts clenched fist aloft to conduct the chant*

It is abundantly clear that society would crumble without moderation and oversight from our betters. However, it pains me to see such unfit malcontents granted positions of great responsibility. I demand a review of moderator appointments with a view to defrocking the immoral and empowering those with a sound, virtuous disposition.

I demand a Council of Conservatives to check the mods' powers in the CDZ, while the Liberals will be governed by a new moderator called Josef Stalin.

[Senestrum]

I propose LIBERTY

DOWN WITH THE PEDO-SYMPATHIZERS

ALLOW THE PEOPLE TO POLICE THEMSELVES

BANS WOULD BE CONDUCTED THROUGH DIRECT DEMOCRACY

I do not see why we should tolerate a 'liberal discussion zone' at all. Naught but evil can come of such a forum. Granted, I can see the benefits of flushing out the reds, queers and feminazis, but I submit that the potential for intellectucal and emotional contamination is too great a risk.

Josef Stalin will impersonate them and flame 98 times, causing all libs to be deleted(pseudolegally).

Right, well the whole point of this revolution is the satisfaction gained from stringing up the Mods, we really have little clue as to what we'll do after that, probably hang around and pic-spam on Forum 7 I guess,

We're not intelligent people, we just like to gather in crowds and shout, look at the misspellings on our signs for God's sake, look at the misunderstandings of anything, Hong-Nan has a 'Tea bag the Mods before they tea bag you' sign. Within 10 posts of this call for freedom and 3 people are signing up to follow a goddamn dictator. I mean, it's embarrassing really.

Now we have a Mod calling to join in for the downfall of mods, this revolution is getting ridiculous - I should never have given away free t-shirts, that's all you people actually want.

Can we just get around to hanging some Mods goddamn it?

[Ardchoille]

Dammit, couldn't you see the subtlety of it all? And to think I was going to make you my deputy once we'd got rid of every other potential leader and I took over the whole shebang in the interests of peace and civil order! I've never been so disappointed in a co-conspirator in my life!

I am now broadcasting from the Bermudas -- and you don't have Ardchoille to kick around any more. *pic fades on close-up of me with an extremely honest, sincere and trustworthy-looking Basset hound*

Honestly all the mods really do exploit their power.

Indeed. This is doubly offensive when once considers that our elders and betters should set be setting an immaculate example for the simpler folk whose weak minds are easily lead astray.

We're teabaggers damn it, we can't even spell sutely sublety that word let alone see it,

Honestly all the mods really do exploit their power.

They tried to kill my daddy.

[Free and Open States]

But the thing is that I'm actually being serious. The mods really do abuse their power.

[Ardchoille]

Your daddy [edit]tried to[/edit] beat himself to death in a mean spirit of revenge when we put him in the back of that squad car as a joke.

*pats head* there there now, we know they do, and we're all very concerned about this... SRS BZNS!

[Caninope]

Let us devote our hearts and minds to that great cause, as Barringtonia has!

Barringtonia is a double agent!
