Why was six afraid of seven? Because Ten Eleven Twelve

[Val Halla]

You're on our side, right? Right?

There are no sides.

There's just Nathi who worked hard to get this thread going in the beginning

Maybe it all was for you, Blaat!

[Dyakovo]

There is a scary thought.

What's so scary about it?

Possibly the idea that you're starting to think like me?
*shrugs*
I don't get it either.

We talk here. It's a social thread, and that is the entire point. A place where you can be silly, and just relax. Kinda a fun little friendly corner of the site where people visit, talk about various things, support one another, chat about their day, or hopes and dreams ... not just 'spam'. It fulfills a purpose, and I'm glad we've been able to keep it going.

Yeah, but with the main proponent among the mods for it gone, how long will it last

I've developed a 'wait and see' attitude ... still waiting to see a number of things that we'd discussed while I was still a mod over the past several years even, to come to fruition. But then, being a proponent of things is what got me de-modded, isn't it? Alas. You'll just have to take up the mantle, Blaat. At least for TET.

[Ethel mermania]

Ignorancr is bliss for you, I suppose.

Joke =/= ignorance.

I didn't know TET was supposed to be the most dead serious thread on NSG.

He quoted a classic monty python bit. I suppose you don't know who they are either.

I'll push that on Luna's plate

[Barboneia]

Really need to go easy on using Blair's Ultra Death Sauce as a table sauce. It's perfectly fine until you drink too much coffee. That's a recipe for mild heartburn, right there.

Sounds like a malevolent, secret plan the Australians invented to invade mainland England.

Monty Python is a British comedy group.

That explains why I'm not aware of any MP references. I hate comedies and BBC.

What's the difference between TET and spam thread?

The former is started by a mod and the latter gets locked after 2 posts.

We talk here. It's a social thread, and that is the entire point. A place where you can be silly, and just relax.

TET was an experiment initially, and it's become a successful one. It more or less manages to govern itself, and although it does on occasional get a little close to the line of acceptability, it usually cools off one way or the other. I think things have actually gotten better since it's been less moderated, as usually any situation either calms down on its own, or some of the regulars cool it down.

So for me it works. That said, I've always been for having a TET regular gain moderator status merely to keep an eye on things while maintaining the light-touch approach which Blaat has down to a tea.

Why Ethel, to suggest such a thing! Why would I want to get any of them canned?

Huh?

I just added to what was there.

Last thread seperate, second to last thread in the whole mix.

Well if Luna is Obi Wan, and Obi Wan looks like Jeremy Corbyn, does that make Luna Jeremy Corbyn, Leader of the Labour party and MP for Islington North?

The stuff is bloody lethal, so you don't need to use much of it. Sure does add heat to a sandwich.

I think you changed it just after I brought it up

Why does this mental image fill me with nameless terror? >_>

You'd do alright with that gig, actually. You do that weird liking people thing.

I like the status quo, mind. You'd start pressuring us to buy home and car insurance.

[Ethel mermania]

25,000. A year. Sure that's reasonable. (Cries)

I'd fear if anyone on this site was an important figure tbh

[Val Halla]

Is that your pay? I think Dad gets something like £38,000

[Gallade]

+$500,000 gambling debt by November.

Thanks Galla. Yeah, it's one of my more pervasive character flaws I'm afraid.

Me, use my influence to peddle Meerkat goods and services? Perish the thought..

You're right though, the status quo would have to remain. It would only be to diffuse the absolute worst situations, or merely as a preventative measure if things got a little too heated. As I said Blaat has that approach spot on.
