Now that the initial flurry of activity involved in getting this place off the ground is over, to say nothing of real life events that have inevitably gotten in the way, I would like to take a minute to do something that I should have done earlier - welcome Groove Toad and Edro as our forum moderators! More importantly, I would like to thank them for agreeing to help with this endeavor. I am sure that you all join me welcoming and thanking them. We all know each other (with the exception of Toad the Younger) from MLP, and many of us are friends on Facebook as well as in real life, and thus have preexisting relationships. As such, you will all be well aware that Toad and Edro are as solid and reliable as they come so I am very glad to have them on board. I may have taken the initiative to create this forum but that means nothing - to me this place belongs to all of us so my intention is to give Toad and Edro the same permissions that I have as the forum administrator. Anything that needs done on the forum can be directed at any of us. They also have the ability to make any changes they want at any time so if we log on here one day and the background has changed to images of cakes, we will all know to blame Edro for that one! You will also notice that, unlike most forums, this place doesn't have any rules posted. I will discuss with the mods whether they think we need to create some but, for now, there are none and that is because we all know what is and what is not acceptable behaviour. Since we are all adults, and because this forum was created to give us a place to hang out that had less restrictive moderation, I don't anticipate having any problems here. But if any pop up Toad and Edro have full authority to deal with the issue in whatever manner they see fit. They don't need permission to sanction anyone, even to the point of banning them (not that I anticipate it ever coming to that). In fact, they have full authority to smack me down too. Since I am the administrator they cannot ban me (the software won't allow it), but if I ever get out of line I fully expect them to call me on the carpet and say "hey man, WTF is wrong with you?!?!" But based on their characters, I expect them to be benevolent overlords so nobody will have to worry about them being capricious  All joking aside, please join me in welcoming Toad and Edro as our new mods and in thanking them for taking on the responsibility. |

Rizla are a brand of cigarette papers here in the UK. It's a funny sounding name to me & one I wished I'd used over in the other place instead of Fardwark.  |

I'm glad I can help out here.
Not much is going to bother me. The things that do are - attacking someone's character (or anything about who they are), and passive-aggressiveness. Don't get bent if you write something that someone disagrees with, and they tell you as much. We all appreciate different things. The music, instruments, political views, etc. that you like or don't really are yours. Just don't expect everyone to agree. If you need to hash something out with another member, PMs are the way to go.
We all like to joke around. And, remember edro is a crazy as a road lizard.

Finally made it home from N. GA. so I missed this during drive in the damn Noah Flood part II.... Rain from hell... Thanks for the kind words, Col, and for putting this thing online. I left a dollar on the terlet for you. Thanks to Toady too for being part of this. I am in hopes we don't need a bunch of rules and such, don't have to ban folks, etc., etc..... Let's all treat each other with a little bit of respect, always give each other the benefit of the doubt, and just get along with everybody here... Colin, in his infinite lack of wisdom, made me a mod. Well damn. I hope there ain't no real modding EVER needed here except for housekeeping of the platform. Carry on, have fun, and never ever even consider pushing the red button.... Edro |

Young Rizla.
I fear that you are being disingenuous about the reason that your name is what is it...... (where is the chin rubbing gif/motif here?)
For those of you that are unaware, young Rizla is the acolyte, servant and summoner of taxis,(unpaid) of the Great Master Hugo Rune.
He is a delightful little chappie, if a little wayward when he has been over refreshed but a fine companion when embarking on a journey to the centre of the Earth in search of combat with Count Otto Black.
(We need a nice waving chappie here to signify a humourous end to the post).

You know of Count Otto Black then? & when Rune the Master swings his stout stick when talk of taxi fares & 12 course meals are mentioned? Damn. |

Underneath the 3 stars on my user name is the word... Teuchter. I'll admit to being a tad refreshed & possibly a bit tired & emotional but...I don't remember changing that. Did one of you scallywags do that? I'd have never spelt it right in the first place. This has all the hallmarks of a Rune drive by.  |
