News:

There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

Where did the meta-forum go?

...and why is the "Discordan ads" thread closed?

I think the meta forum was merged with forum annoucements a while back.

As to why that thread was locked...no idea.  I had a quick scan of the thread, couldn't see a reason, and have no PMs.  I'm going to PM the mod in question who locked it, but my suspicion is that it was just an error...if you're navigating the forums by the links, it's very easy to click on a moderation option by mistake.  And the lock option in particular does not have any pop-up or confirmation screen when you click it, which makes it very easy to do if you didn't mean to.

Oh, and I've opened that thread back up, of course.

Thanks! I'll try to remember what I was going to say. But maybe it's better that it stays dead.

The thread was locked because I'm an idiot.


This is what happens when you give REAL ULTIMATE POWER to a dumbass.
