In order to simplify things for myself, I am thinking of doing away with "The Mgt" and making this account the one with REAL ULTIMATE POWER. I only kept them separate at the beginning because I wanted PD.com's new MGT to be anonymous for a month or two until I figured out what I was doing and whether or not it would be worthwhile. Since then, I've just been lazy and having to logout and back in as a different account has kept me from bothering much with anything MGT-related.
But then...
But then those of you who have been here a while understand the inherent danger in even contacting The Mgt, let alone trying to dispose of The Mgt. I have a hunch that it will respond like HAL in 2001:A BORING PIECE OF CRAP (best case scenario) or IT in A Wrinkle In Time (middle-of-the-road scenario) or Skynet (most likely scenario).
so I want your feedback. Should I tempt fate?

Man, my whole world is crumbling.
First I find out that some, maybe even a lot of porn is shooped.
Now, The Mgt=ECH.
Jesus. Next someone is going to tell me that President Obama is just another lawyer/politician in charge of the "Free world".
In regard to OP: DOO EET! And then finalize your Rule With An Iron Fist.

I kinda like The Mgt being around, as an angry and wrathful God lurking about, just waiting to turn someone's family into hamsters for 12 generations, like an old testament Jehovah that caters to perverts.
Because, seriously, this place has been lacking in the DOOM department recently, we can't afford to lose any more.
ITT: I reveal that The Mgt. has actually forced Hustle into a farce that attempts to mislead all of us from the true identity of The Mgt.

Stop invoking it!
Oh shit oh shit oh shit.
As for OP:

Dude, we're talking about The Mgt.
Remember when Guido Finucci PM'd The Mgt?
Never.
Seen.
Again.
Sometimes insane hubris does pay off... I say do it.
I would point out that not using an ubar account for posting could act as a fail-safe against accidentally nuking the forum.
Sure, I can't see why not.
And yes, Alty, almost all image-based porn is shooped.
I'm fine with this so long as I don't have to give up my secret admin account.

this is in fact a good reason.
and as a horrifying looming dooming admin of doom, the character is cool asl well.
it's a good thing that the "delete thread" buttons have this popup that asks "are you sure?" because sometimes my hand-eye coordination doesn't qutie work.
and who is 16/f/ca? welcome?

Point. Not to mention, it would be in-theme to have the superuser named 'The MGT'.
I like the character "The MGT"
and I like the separation of you, the human being, from you, the admin. It makes the admin more of a function than a person, and I think that's a great way to view it.
i dont really think it matters what you do

I say we give ECH the old cattle prod and pendulum routine like in that episode of The Prisoner, till one half of his personality becomes The Mgt. and the other half stays as ECH but is unawares of his secret double life as The Sleeper Mgt.
Mind you, I don't wanna be the one who ties him to the chair, fuck no...

Doesn't make a bit of a difference to me.

OK, it looks like that's a vote for the status quo. I'm driving up to Seattle in a few hours, and it's totally NOT because I'm pretty sure that Mt. Tabor (the active volcano a few blocks from my apartment) is likely to erupt as a result of this conversation.
There will be a Mt. St. Helens lahar. Seattle will be buried.
