ICVDF: The subforums have been removed (please read)

[Eagle0600]

Looks like I missed the fireworks. *shrugs*

[Mao]

I'm kinda sad to see that cesspit go.  Ah well.

Well, I don't know how many netfilters have CMF on them already, but we're liable to get one at work eventually.  With IVCD, the entire forum could have ended up being blacklisted everywhere, and you'd get far less posting from the likes of me and Keaton.

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

That'd be a shame. (No, seriously. Even if I don't sound like it, I am.)

And we work so hard to keep things civil...

[Turnsky]

this is a lesson to all those who have a forum here, or have a similar arrangement elsewhere..

you have a subforum, or forum, this means that regular forumites are below you, yes, but you're not at the top of the food chain, mess up, and you'll get fed to the piranha 

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

nomnomnomnomnomnom ;-]

[Darkmoon]

And that was the reason why we deleted everything. We didn't want the archived materials uncessarily throwing off the rating of the forum as a whole, nor did was want those people singled out by their forum to have a archived reminder of what they said.

[Auragonian]

There was a sub-forum? I definitely missed it.

[Sunblink]

Probably for the best. You're even younger than I am.

Stupid work, apparently making me miss out on fun.
I want someone to re-enact exactly what happened for me, please. With a quality musical score and an option for directors commentary. Thanks.

I personally request Rosario Dawson to play the role of myself. And I want something to blow up in the background.

... Rosario Dawson? We can get some helium, if that will help. I'm sure Mischa will have some spare...

[Mao]

Bah!  Both of the actors suited to me are dead.  Damn you John Candy and Chris Farley!  Why'd you have to go and die on me!  WHY?!

[Sunblink]

Bah!  Both of the actors suited to me are dead.  Damn you John Candy and Chris Farley!  Why'd you have to go and die on me!  WHY?!

Actually, I look nothing like Rosario Dawson. Or any other actress, for that matter. I just like Rosario Dawson.

... Rosario Dawson? We can get some helium, if that will help. I'm sure Mischa will have some spare...

Darn you, I meant "blow up" as in "explode." XD You can't have a movie without explosions.

[superluser]

We can get Chris Farley's brother.  I hear he's a hit among Republicans.

Darn you, I meant "blow up" as in "explode." XD You can't have a movie without explosions.

Helium does explode, you know.

Well, if I had to choose one that looked like me, it would be Seth Rogen.

... Wouldn't that hurt? I mean, if you used that much helium?

[Jairus]

Well, we won't need to find anyone to play me: I can cameo as myself as a background character, since I didn't participate.

Hey, Boxy, you could be played by Solid Snake in his disguise.

[superluser]

Hey, Boxy, you could be played by Solid Snake in his disguise.

Let's get with it, here.  Solid Snake is a fictional character.  llearch couldn't be played by a fictional character.  He could, of course, be played by Kurt Russell playing Snake Plissken playing Solid Snake...in his disguise.

[Cogidubnus]

The summary, then:

And nothing of value was lost.

I dunno. He hasn't really play Snake Plissken in forever. Maybe we'd be better off getting that kid from Martian Child. Seems like he's good at hiding in boxes.

[Destina Faroda]

Oh, so that's what happened.

I actually would have liked to have seen the people from ICVD come here, but it seems both sides are irrevocably apart.  It's sad because even if we couldn't get along, at least all of us would have our say, for good or for ill.

[Damaris]

They were interested in making sure it failed in the most spectacular way possible.  *shrugs* That was their choice.

I do hope, after seeing the roots Darkmoon came from, that everyone now understands why we have the rules we do.

[Destina Faroda]

I have to wonder, does this rule out the possibilty of future forums merging with CMF?  I wouldn't want this experience ruin future opportunities elsewhere, but I can understand if this means there won't be any types of joining in the future.

[Darkmoon]

Future forums are more than welcome to merge, provided if CMF is the hosting ground, then CMF's rules will be the template upon which to merge.

[Damaris]

I don't think it completely rules out the possibility.  One the whole, CMF posters are a friendly and welcoming group.  I think it would be able determining if the incoming group was willing to work with the established community, or at the very least, separate itself and leave them alone.

But, I also think the likelihood of such an instance coming up is low.

[Jer-oh-me]

I recall my only involvement being a snide remark on how Bill & Ted that game dev guy looked. I dunno who would play me, probably a lucky microphone wrangler with a shrill voice.

Blegh, scroll fail, stupid Wii. I think sub-forums are cool as long as they do not come infected with the stupid virus, I've already jumped ship from one forum for that. And for some reason I see 4chan as the Detroit of the internet, or Mos Eisley if you don't understand.

[superluser]

And for some reason I see 4chan as the Detroit of the internet

No!  Not Detroit!

Actually, from what I can tell, 4chan tends to get bored with trolling the mods pretty quickly, so 4chan does have something on the ICVDF people we had here.

Mods that react appropriately - ie, post back, and get upset - are much more fun than mods that just mod - ie, ban and clean up.

Sad how being adult removes all these opportunities for amusement for the kiddies. However, such is life. I find it sad that the ICVD folks have yet to grow up.

I also find it sad how many folks are in the same state - especially those older than me. Whilst "not growing up" is often fun, there are also times when it's a poor choice. Knowing when and where is critical to remaining at least partially sane...

But I digress.

[Tapewolf]

It's certainly helped.  With anarchy comes great responsibility...
