First, some background:There was a person. and all the parts wanted to be in charge.
the mouth said: I am the gateway to the stomach, I preprocess the food. I should be in charge.
The lungs then contested: I supply you all with oxygen, I should be in charge.
The brain then spoke: I should be in charge, for you cannot function without me.
and so on.
then the asshole spoke up: I should be in charge, because I'm the asshole.
the others said: There's one thing we can agree on: Hell no.
so the asshole closed himself off. and the stomach turned, and was painful, and the mouth was dry, and the lungs hurt when they breathed, and the hands shook, and the brain could not think, and the skin was yellow. until finally the body could not stand it, and agreed to let the asshole be in charge.
okay, the moral is: there's always one asshole that can ruin it for everyone.
"delete own post" is 1.
"Delete own thread" is 0.
you may cancel your double post, but you cannot cancel your double-thread.
This enable is provisionary. if we catch someone fucking around, there will be trouble. don't let one asshole ruin it for the rest of you.
Don't be the asshole. that's what me, KBreak and Wiley are for.

kay, you know about making rules for Detnet; don't work.*guidelines* maybe.
even then we can't talk about it.
BtC, I love your ferver but you have to *back off.
No more legalities.
I'm truly sorry, I love what you try to do.
Just wait a month or so.
Enforcing any sort of overt rules will result in your destruction.

I've seen that post before and I appreciate what you picked for this occasion.Detnet is honored and stuff.
Rilly Rilly got to talk people into doing things,
not telling them what to do.
BtC you can do it, do you want it?

Guys if you're gonna have multiple admins, you need to have a private forum for just that purpose. No use having arguments with one another re: policy in front of the troops.You know what, those of us that are here for the right reasons don't care about it. Make your decision in private and then post them under a sticky thread in a forum rules/newbie guide room or something.
Then when you've all decided in that nice way we call democracy, bring it to us and the regulars can all go 'ho-hum' and the one's it affects can winge.
