Will there be an option to keep the skin we already have? Liquid width is my friend!

I PCed you the password long ago, you must have lost it. I'll re-send it. PC, not PM?

I would assume not if p = I am a chat mod q = I have the password
(∃p)(p ∧ ¬q) → ¬((∀p)(p ∧ q))
I am a chat mod, I do not have the password. ∴ Not all chat mods have the password.

So recently we've been having troubles with trolling. What's allowed and what's not. We can't simply allow all trolling because some trolling can potentially seriously hurt people's feelings. We also can't ban all trolling because trolling is impossible to objectively define, and some users actually enjoy trolling and being trolled by each other.
My Solution: We can't expect people to anticipate whether or not they will offend somebody. "Gay black person who's way cooler than me bitch" might seriously offend one person, while another person will think it's a good joke. But, people can SAY that they're offended. Obviously, we can't tell if they're really offended, but that's okay; Is it too much to ask that you stop calling people "Gay black person who's way cooler than me bitch" when they tell you to stop, even if they're not really offended. Key here, is that the offended party tell the other person to stop. If GV* trolls NM and NM gets mad and trolls GV back, and they both get mad, yet neither tells the other to stop. They shouldn't get banned for trolling (they might get banned for other reasons, depending on their argument). This rule is not objective. It can't be. It is the chat mod's decision whether or not the offender's posts are banable. For example, if Vert tells Mono to stop calling him Vert, but mono keeps doing it, Mono need not be banned because "Vert" is not interpreted as an insult by reasonable people.
A second problem: The chat mods (well, I, at least) don't have any standard for how long to ban people for what things. I just ban people for what seems like a reasonable amount of time, and then they complain that others have been banned for similar offenses for more or less time. Also, I have no way of recording the bans I make. Both these problems could be solved if all chat mods are given the password to the ban record board.

Yes, I just performed a ban as per qwerty's orders, and I wasn't able to report it!

In an attempt to not make it evident that I've peed my pants, I bicycle all the way to Niagara falls, and stand under it. Then, I pee a few drops at a time into a thimble, and pur the contents on my pants. Peed pants, and nobody knows B)

DanBalls are like poker chips. They really don't mean anything, but it's fun to get as many as you can.

I could make a skin, but I have no desire/incentive to. I find this one quite appropriate.
EDIT: of course money, dan-balls, and/or power can change that B)

You know, the take-down of MegaUpload happened through the proper government channels already in place. The process took about two years, and Mega Upload repeatedly refused to do anything about the piracy on their site; they profited from it. Mega-upload is the type of site that SOPA wants to target. Well, This just goes to show that we don't need SOPA to take down a website. We already have perfectly fine infrastructure for it. The take-down of MegaUpload is actually a good thing.

Am I one for the current skin? I really like the "not important" liquid display. As a multitasker, the ability to read messages without having to side-scroll is wonderful. I used to actually zoom out just because of that problem. I also like the new color selections. I'm deciduous, I think, and I find the colors much more pleasing to the eye than brown and orange. Also, if the big danball at the top is bothering you, do you realize how EASY it would be to remove it? I'd back a poll to remove that link if it would make you stop complaining... EDIT: Ad Block Pro is pro.

lol excellent use of the face.
If you really want to make a change in this forum, you need one of the following: - a 90% or more majority approval - everyone directly involved approving, and a simple general majority - an easy to implement and fool-proof plan, and a simple majority approval
Get one of these things and then complain.
