You are standing in an open field west of a white house, with a boarded front door. There is a small mailbox here.
What do you do? (10 brownie points if you get the reference)
I learned how to program by writing MUDs. A Zork reference is not going to get past me.
Anyway, I open the mailbox and read the leaflet.

Oh good, we finally have a mod that is unlikely to get eaten by a grue.

If memory serves, the thread was locked before Rooks was promoted so he may not know, mods do not have a log of who locked a given thread. Thats correct. But every mod i asked so far has denied it being them, so i was running outa names to ask'
cause iv been trying to find out and so far every mod iv talked to denies it being them...
its turning into a.... FFXIAH CONSPIRACY!!
I honestly don't know the answer. Again, why does it matter? If you have a question for her, just PM her.
At this point, my curiosity of who did it feels more relevant that w/e i might have posted in the thread lol.

You mail the scroll to hades. I have fond memories of The Grand Inquisitor.

Do you accept bribes in bitcoins, gold, silver, USD, RMB, or other?

Let's say you only had two options:
You have to watch your parents have sex every night (about an hour) for the rest of your life, or
You can have sex with your parents in a menage a trois, just once and be free the rest of your life.
Which would you choose?
Thanks!

I'm entirely too comfortable to bribe. Programming pays well, and I grew up pretty poor, so I don't have any kind of taste for opulence.

I was wondering when you'd show up with something like this. Never a disappointment, you :)
And Dad's been gone for a while, so either of those options is going to be pretty awkward. But I've spent a career tuning out of conference calls, so I'm pretty sure I could dial down the consciousness and survive the watching option.

Hehe. I grew up programming too. 6 years old on the old Commodore plus/4.
Made a killing in Russia a little over a year ago programming over there.
Opulence is my forte though.

I actually didn't grow up programming at all; couldn't afford the computer! Wasn't until I got to college that I had any access to one, and didn't start writing any code until my sophomore year (when my advisor suggested I take some CS classes).
I learned close to nothing of value in my CS classes (wasn't a good school for it). What I did do, however, was get hooked on MUDs, and start writing code there, and it all kind of snowballed after that.

I have not. Though if offered, I wouldn't refuse.

Would you rather take a mico penis for the rest of your life, and take 3 billion US dollars (caveat you cannot enlarge your penis), or
Would you rather stay the same but have a permanent reduced household income by 50%?
Thanks, Rooks!

I could survive either of those. But I've already managed to reproduce, so my junk being subpar isn't really the deal breaker it would have been. Might as well take the three billion.

Some clarifications:
Giving or just receiving?
All cheese, including dishes where cheese is just a small component?

All oral sex, giving and reciving. All cheese whatsoever.
I like that you have to clarify lol.

Well, it's a different set of stakes if giving is involved, since that affects the wife. So I guess it's cheese.

But what if cheese is taken away from the wife too?
And who are these horrible people taking away your oral sex and your cheese? Have you wondered that?
By LakshmiArtemas 2015-06-05 16:49:31
.. that affects the wife...
Yeah, with divorce, no doubt.
Would you rather drink a shot of menstrual blood, or drink eight ounces of semen?
Both from strangers.

Well, if the cheese gets taken away from her too, then oral sex is what goes and I'm not sure I even get a vote.
And those people gave me three billion to convert to a micro-penis so I'm not going to judge them too harshly just yet

The semen. Drinking blood is actually fairly bad for you, and menstrual blood is basically a waste product. I'd be something of a hypocrite if I flinched too hard at having to swallow some semen.
That said, we probably should steer the questions away from the risque. There's actual rules about that and I'm ostensibly part of enforcing them now.

I only have one.
Are the mods going to fix the issue regarding character name changing in FF14? I've tried relinking multiple times now that my character's name is Anzu Sendou, it won't come up in FFXIVpro's database, and every time I try to relink my character, I keep getting Kira Samishii, my old character name. Every time I try to click on my character name, it says "Character does not exist in our DB!"
Will there be a fix for this any time in the future?

I'm pretty sure you could steal Vlor if you tried.

This one KILLS ME, because I loved, loved, loved the Chick-Fil-A spicy chicken sandwich. But their politics are horrific and I actually don't let myself eat there anymore.
I don't have any real love for Chipotle but it wins by default.

That's not a mod-fixable thing. Need a developer for that.
Good news! Part of me becoming a mod was to prep me for a developer role, so when that time comes, please remind me! There's actually a thread started by Kalila for site improvements, add a post there if there isn't one and I'll address it as soon as I have access to the codebase :)
I wasn't going to do one of these, but I've been hassled about it enough that I might as well get it over with. You may thank Jassik for being the straw that broke the camel's back.
No specific rules; we're all adults here, and I expect you to act like it.
With luck there will be one post and then this thread can die
