That's alright, I'll keep uping the ante and by the time you guys get it, I will have committed myself to a seven-course gourmet Marble Hornets-themed dinner for everyone or something. :D

And oh look, we got a ragequit with that one! Double your value for one troll thread. To my regulars who have taken so beautifully to the PM-those-who-post-in-troll-threads strategy, hoorah! High fives all around. Keep being rad.

To those who haven't quite caught on yet... keep trying, you'll get there.

I like being threatened and called a loser over PM, it validates my lifestyle.

Eugh... oh, dear. Okay, so maybe I should have added an addendum to my suggestion.

Folks who feel the urge to berate those who post in troll threads" PM the people who post, but don't be a huge dick about it. Or even a little dick. "Don't post in troll threads!" suffices.

Actually, no, those are responses to my PMs. I didn't think they were that bad...

Every message I've sent:

It's funny, some of the responses I get.

Hey folks! As of today, I've updated the mod list for the MH forum to reflect actual active mod status. This means I've removed Dav and ndemeter, as they've moved on to other priorities, but added Zarrrg (welcome and a huge thanks for helping out!!) and myself.

I'm an admin at Unfiction and haven't been actively following MH myself, but I thought it'd be nice for JKat, who's been doing an awesome job moderating basically by herself for the past months, to get some extra support from us, so I'll try and help out as much as possible.

By adding active mods to the forum I hope we can more effectively address your concerns and complaints about moderation, however, we aren't changing the forum policy that's been applied so far, so I guess the challenge of getting JKat to bake us some cookies is still up Wink

In the meantime, have a stroopwafel

and if you have questions, remarks or feedback, let us know.

I second the cookies-baking thing, as the most likely forum member to benefit from achieving this goal! >.>"

So, this is the last day for some time that I know for sure I'll have reliable internet. We're moving tomorrow, and there's at least a month where we're house-sitting an as-yet-uninhabited apartment -- ie, no internet set up yet. Public libraries, Starbuckses, and Wind kiosks will be the only time you hear from me till October, possibly mid-October.

:c I am going to miss so many awesome Marble Hornetses.

This month's ante: If I get back in October and hear from Zarggg and Giskard that no one replied to any troll threads, I will bake Operator cupcakes. Any Unfictioners in Vancouver will be welcome to claim one. Go!

I'm upping the ante by adding that I'll bake a motherfucking key lime cheesecake/pie a la cooking with totheark.

If our place burns down and we never show up on unfiction again, I apologize in advance for no pics. Very Happy

I would like to remind you guys of two things:

If you are quoting a post with images, please change the IMG bbCode tags to URL tags, so that you don't make everyone scroll through the images again. If you're posting about a single image several pages back, that's fine, but even five of them in a row is just cumbersome.
If you are replying to the post immediately before yours, you don't need to quote the post at all. The rest of us will know what post you're talking about. If you're not sure your own post is clear, you can just put "@Username" before your own text.

^If you quote something with an embedded YouTube video should you change that to a URL too?

Probably. It's not as much of an issue as posts with images.

Just wanted to let you guys know that my ISP is being a jerk to me and I expect to be without internet access for two weeks starting on Monday. I'll try to get on at coffee houses and the like when I can, but I probably won't be checking up here every day or every other day like I have been.

Because of the recently-uploaded video simply titled "entry," I have changed the page name of "Entry ######" from "entry" to "entry-number-sign". The original name was used on the wiki because you cannot use the number sign ("#") in a URI. That symbol has special meaning in URIs, referring to a section of a page (or a placeholder for JavaScript and Action Script functions).

The new "entry" video will have the "entry-video" page name and titled "entry (video)" on the wiki to avoid ambiguity with the general term of "entry".

All links in the wiki should have been fixed, but please be aware of this for external links.
