A Katana can be maintenance-intensive, you know?

False alarm, man...

Is anyone considering about changing their vote on the SA Union motion yet?

That was something we adopted in the Guild's Constitution. Well, all those membership fees couldn't simply be a slush fund for Maegil's boat repairs....

Membership fees? I didn't pay any membership fees yet!

By the way, all of you: I personally feel very happy not wasting half of my time to look out for spammers. If you got spare energy and are getting nervous now: Why not put it into something useful and enrichen our lives with e.g. some OXPs? :wink:

I've tried OXPing, really I have. My one feeble attempt really isn't worth talking about....

I'll stick to selling Trumbles to new members :wink:

Remember this?
Well, rusty as CH is, he only winged the mark, so the guy managed to find cover and crawl to the 'safety' of the EBBS.

Guess what!

He was nothing less than the AMBASSADOR of the "PlayStation 2 Linux Development Community"!!!

Now, how am I to keep calling our boards the "friendliest this side of Riedquat" if it gets out that we shoot other boards' diplomats?

Just read your latest addition to the HPA saga. Cool!

Currently have my 20MW out moving chambers and am all in on a bet that <clasified> chambers accept me as a roge defence only criminal hack. A sparticus OXP would be cool!
