No. 3 will probably go the way of the other two.However I realized
that for the first time the Canadians who will run and participate in
the bicentennial have been being born since about 2005 or thereabouts.
The terrible twos,the toddler 3-4's and the fumbling 5's just happen to be
around at the same time the folk who ran and participated in the first Centennial
are still alive.

By 2067 todays smart ass teens and twenty somethings will be drooling old farts
in old age homes,not really of importance by 2067.

So what I suggested to CBC radio is its never too early to prepare for the
BiCentennial,as what you entertain the kiddies with in 2010/2011 will be recalled
fondly and perhaps have a influence on what the late 50/60 somethings do in 2067.

When I was a young un,all I had to worry about was the ghost of a headless woman,
whilst todays toddlers have got internet porn,army guys in womens lingerie,etc

the notion that guys in lingerie could have a long lasting reach on what goes on in 2067
seems rather repellant,so in the pitch i effectively ignored current internet cultural values
and settled on the 'ghost',or in this case a dragon conversing in rhyme,rhyme that has double
meanings.]]> http://www.shadowlordinc.com/forum/posts/preList/85/259.page http://www.shadowlordinc.com/forum/posts/preList/85/259.page GMT This is a multilayered film and you really need the 2nd disc of commentary
( about as long as the movie itself) to clue into much of the depth of the movie.
otherwise it'll just seem like
Free Willy X Eragon

( eg
in the deleted radio scene the announcer subtitles read something like
...scales of justice....besieged fortress....the firestorm....crept forward...

in his script]]> http://www.shadowlordinc.com/forum/posts/preList/84/255.page http://www.shadowlordinc.com/forum/posts/preList/84/255.page GMT http://www.shadowlordinc.com/forum/posts/preList/83/253.page http://www.shadowlordinc.com/forum/posts/preList/83/253.page GMT Last week-end, I went to Fur Fright for another year. Ended up in the overflow again. Really, this suck when a con get big enough they need 2 or more overflow hotels. Still, they were all within walking distance ( I still drove though) and the last one was rather inexpensive. Still, when you're at one of the overflow, con tent to be a bit more tiresome as you can't to take a break and rest in your room or you have to carry your stuff all day long.

I'll really plan ahead for next year, reserving a room earlier at the main hotel. Hopefully, I can get at least 2 extra people in it to absorb the cost and I really wish to organize something TF oriented. Maybe a Saturday TF room party.
Still, 2 TF fans roommate would be nice.

In summary, the con was nice. I managed to get 23 sketches done in my sketchbooks and picked up a few year due TF comics from Max Black Rabbit, which he did a great job. Spent some time at panel, but I only found 2 or 3 to be interested or not really far right.

Comus' panel about his book was nice, but I fear the book is going to be more a subjective furry self patting one rather than a objective book about furries if nothing is changed. I mean ok, anthropomorphism is one thing, but the whole 'religious' aspect furries has put on it, the rule of "don't say no to furries" is what give furries a bad look. If you're going to say that furries has porn, just like superheroes fandom or Fantasy fandom, don't forget the extremists furries that don't moderate or draw the line, which other fandom does.

The Kemono panel was very interesting. Bringing the history of Kemono, the anthropomorphism in Japan and taking a neutral view. Sort of reminded me of What the Fur panel about furries. An OBJECTIVE view that take the good and the bad, not a view with pink glasses.

I stumbled on a few TF fan and friends too. Orion-J, Sorethumb, Provolvere, Shuan, Comus, Solidasp, Wfa. Wish there was a more official meeting place for TF fan at the con. I think there seem to be a bit more hidden TF fan at this con too.


On another subject, another drive failed during the week-end I was at the con. The RAID went into degraded mode and was still working but there was some corruption.
And you know what? I'm starting to really, really HATE Linux raid. So far, every single time I end up with a busted disk, the file system would get corrupted to a point of losing files.
Sure, not 100% of the files get lost, but you get a file system that nearly has to be rebuilt from scratch from backup every single time.
At this point, why bother with RAID redundancy, that is supposed to save you time by having the system still working, when you're going to restore everything from backup disks at every failure?

I may as well just put the 5 drives as stand alone disks and backup everything daily in an external disk.
If a disk fail, just restore from the bigger one and that's it.

Also SEVEN left to get the SET!]]> http://www.shadowlordinc.com/forum/posts/preList/81/250.page http://www.shadowlordinc.com/forum/posts/preList/81/250.page GMT http://www.shadowlordinc.com/forum/posts/preList/66/207.page http://www.shadowlordinc.com/forum/posts/preList/66/207.page GMT

From now on, all clips will be uploaded in either 2 formats. The classic AVI with a MPEG-4 Part 2 video Codec / MP3 Audio Codec and the new MP4 with a MPEG-4 Part 10 / Advanced Audio Codec (AAC).
If you're having difficulties playing this new format, I suggest you try installing ffdshow-tryout http://ffdshow-tryout.sourceforge.net/ and Media Player Classic Home Cinema http://mpc-hc.sourceforge.net/

On the other hand, I have some thoughts about work since last week. I can classify works in two categories: handling and service. Handling are jobs that have someone build or construct something, like a miners collect coal, welders crate structure, artists create drawing, fishers bring fish. In the other hand, you have accountants, lawyers, archivists, librarians, etc, which don't produce good but provide services. The site fits more the service type, while artists fit the product one. But over the time, I've felt the handling one has always looked from above the service one. Especially when, after I asked for birthday presents I've been told no one deserve it, but an artist doing the same thing a week after get a total opposite reply.

And sadly it suck. During last weeks updates, I had to struggle to finish them. The last week-end was a rainy one, so my plan to work outside were ruined. I decided I may as well work on the update. But as I was filling the excel forms, the task was getting more and more excruciating. The routine of pick clip, look for character, paste character, look for category, paste category, get description, open file, get picture, make 3 thumbnails, rinse, repeat was getting too much. I barely was able to finish it.

The task of updating the site is getting boring. When someone draw, that person gets something new each time take the pencil. They even improve (well, most artist anyway) each time they draw something, they learn. But it's the same boring routine each week with the site. A routine that give no satisfaction at all, no reward of any kind, personal or from other. At least, when I'm coding, I get a satisfaction of making something, of solving problems, of learning new things. And I've been having a lot more fun working on the Deviantart download utility http://dragoniade.deviantart.com/art/DA-Favorites-Downloader-143106876 and the DragoniadeClipUI helping tools http://www.shadowlordinc.com/Dragoniade/images/DragoniadeClipUi.png than the updates themselves.

I've been told by a few friends "if the site gets more a job than an hobby, you should stop". And I've decided just that. I'm taking a break, an hiatus, for the next 2 months. After that, who knows. Since I've just spend 130$ in Fighting Fantasy books for contents, I may as well roll 2 dices and if I roll over 6, update new info. And if I roll over 9, I'll upload the clips along. Ok. More seriously, I'll probably go for a monthly and not fixed update. It seem sites with 'unscheduled' or monthly updates get more notices and feedback. In the meanwhile, I probably will continue coding: finish the search engine, add browser support to it, refine the book section and probably tweak some sections and probably give velocity a try on the site. This is what I've been enjoying more lately. So, tada until January.]]> http://www.shadowlordinc.com/forum/posts/preList/64/199.page http://www.shadowlordinc.com/forum/posts/preList/64/199.page GMT

I left Friday in the early morning to take the plane that would fly my north for hunting. I meet my mom and we drop to the work camp when we packed the boat.
The next day, I met my hunting partner and headed to the reservoir to head to our mirador, 20 km by boat, while my father and mother were hunting in their mirador.
We were supposed to stay there until Wednesday, as both my mother and partner were heading back to work on Thursday, but due to the bad weather, we decided to head back Tuesday. For the 3 days we stayed, it was all wind and rains.
There were quite a few wind waves on the reservoir, but the boat was sure able to take it.

I took Wednesday easy, as my father needed to catch up at work. I took the day to work a bit on the site, working on the future search engine and adding another import feature to help me with the updates.

On Thursday morning, my father and I headed back to his mirador that he lefts the day earlier. The silence was great, disturbed only by the sound of Canadian gooses honking while flying south, beaver swimming and duck running on the water.
However, it was sometime disturbed by the sound of machinery, loaders and dumping truck, working a few kilometers away on the road leading to the work camp. With the mountain and flat valley, the sounds were really amplified and it was like they were working right next to us.

On Friday, my father when down to the ground to call, while I hold guard upstairs. At 10h00, he climbed back and we were sort of loosing hope, as the working sound was really loud and were really disturbing the peace. My father decided to take a nap, while I pulled my laptop to resume my work on the search engine, raising my head every minute or so to keep watch.
It's at 12h30 that I raised my head to look outside I saw it. A small buck walking along the other side of the stream. With all the noise, one came out. I notified my father, who got up as I was grabbing my riffle and my clips. We both got outside and as my father was aiming the moose and I was readying myself to assist him, I saw it... Another moose left the branches to follow the first one. And it was another male. I look at my father, saying there was another one and acknowledging with him about getting both. We nodded at each other and while he was aiming the first one, I aimed at the second one.
We both shot at the same time. His fell at the first shot, mine didn't move an inch. I shot 2 other time before he finally decided to walk away back into the bush. I was shocked. 3 bullets and it did nothing. But knew I hit him.

We waited an hour, watching in case the first one would get up and in case we would spot the second one, before crossing the stream. The first one was down, not having moved an inch, so we proceeded to find mine. There was blood, so I did hit him. We first went into the high folliage and saw nothing. While my father decided to walk further, I went back to where I last saw the moose, then started to track the blood on the ground and foliage. Red on green is not easy to spot, but after about 30 feet through the foliage, I saw it. I did get it, and quite good. All shot went in, where they should, but he was one of those that wouldn't fell no matter what. We started to prepare the nooses for transportation, which means eviscerate them then cut them in quarters. During the process, my partner arrived, having been notified we hit, and two hours later, our expedition's partners. We loaded the ATV and headed back to the main camp to hangs the quarters. All done, we headed back to the work camp for the night.

On Saturday, we started washing the stuff and packing, planning to head south on Sunday.

On Sunday, we got up at 5 AM, ate breakfast and started the drive back to our maple grove, a nice 1400 Km trip .

http://maps.google.ca/maps?f=d&source=embed&saddr=Unknown+road&daddr=45.621722,-72.108765+to:Rang+St+-+Thomas&hl=en&geocode=FWIAIgMdMD9t-w%3B%3BFfXrvgIdjGHH-w&mra=dme&mrcr=0&mrsp=1&sz=8&via=1&sll=44.762337,-71.987915&sspn=2.683424,8.453979&ie=UTF8&ll=44.762337,-71.982422&spn=7.488536,14.0625&z=6

We stopped at Amos to register the kills. About halfway through the regional park, we were flagged by the forest patrol to stop. Seem they were waiting for us and we figured out it was because we registered 2 kills at the same spot, same time, same day, which is rather suspicious in other circumstance. After checking all the papers and asking a few questions, they asked my to come inside for questioning, same for my father. They questioned me further, asking more details about how the hunt occurred. After a 15 minutes interrogation, one of the ranger left and I waited with the other one. They came back, saying all was OK, and we left a few minutes later. What they were after was if my father was the one who shot both moose, which is illegal. But since we both fired at our target, we were all ok. We resumed the road trip and arrived at Longueuil close to 20h30 or so. My parents drop me home, since I needed to pick my car, while they continued toward my sister's home, to stop for the night.

On Monday, I resumed my trip, heading to Sherbrooke needing to buy some food for processing during the second week of 'vacation'. However, my father called, saying he lefts my mother at the hospital, a puncture she did during the road trip got infected. My father continued to stop to the butcher to drop the moose while I was heading to the hospital and waited for my mother. She got her leave late the day, after which we headed to the maple grove.

Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, Friday were mostly spent cooking the food I brought back and use some of last year moose to make room for this year meat. So we made Moose spaghetti sauce, Moose Shepard pie, Moose Meat Balls, Moose Stew. We also unpacked. Sadly, it rained most of the week, so we didn't managed to get too much done on the land as we would have hoped. I took the opportunity to work on the updates I brought with me during that week.

My parent left on Sunday, while I took the day to work on another project of mine. You see, I have more than 14000 favorites on Deviant Art, most having never been saved, having been more of an online collection... which I hate. I never been a fan of WEB 2.0, where everything is online and should something happen to the online site, you lose everything. So I finally managed to figured out how DA worked their AJAX, through searching left and right, and got started in coding a crawler. This small program query Deviant Art for a user's favorites, mine in that case, recovering the data in XML with all the information for the picture. All that is left to do is download the URL supplied and voila. A structured local archive of my favorite, sorted by artist and title, which I can use for wallpaper, or view OFFLINE without having to be connected to DA.


I spend the remaining days working on this, my updated and getting some wood in for the winter, before heading back to Longueuil and getting ready for Fur Fright. I took the opportunity to get an extra sketchbook, and a 5x8 labels set, which I used to add a cover to my sketchbook. Sadly, I'll have to figure a way to make the laser toner stick on that paper much longer. I think I'll have to use that spray I saw some artist use on their paper, if I can manage find what it is.

On Thursday, I left to Fur Fright after picking Chasseur d'étoile for co-riding there. We got to the overflow hotel by 22h30, then headed to the convention hotel to see if we could register. Since everything was closed, we headed back to the hotel and went to sleep.

On Friday, we registered and we went our separate way for the con. I wandered into the dealer's dungeons for a while, leaving my sketchbooks at a few tables, before heading to the werewolf panel. I think this was the only interesting panel this year and I sure wish I had brought my laptop, since there as been a long transformation talk :) I also meet Comus and we talked. He's quite a friendly guy to met and I was sure surprised, in a good way, when I first saw him. I also meet Sorethumb and ICheetah at the con. I was supposed to pick a box at the con from someone who owed me some stuff, one of which was a 160$ charity commission. Of course, the box never got there, the person never having sent it thinking I wouldn't be at the con, while at the same time, being unable to spend 4 dollars for an envelope with a 200$ insurance to send me my commission, which I sure now regret taking, charity or not.

I spent the rest of Friday and most of Saturday wandering between commissioning in the dealer's dungeon, meeting with Comus or Sorethumb groups and the charity event, which I got the DVD of the Howling :) I went with Comus to the Gun Fur panel, thinking, by the description, it would be a informative panel about weapon, like C-Ace used to have. Sadly, it was another propaganda, brain dead gathering of weapon crazy United Statians who saw conspiracies in every corner and would be ready to go Rambo should someone ask them to drop their weapon. Like you need to carry a gun to go to the grocery or walk in the street. Some people are just so paranoia. While I understand and enjoy shooting at range, like they do, I cannot understand the religion about keeping a gun on yourself 24/24 and feeling threatened every second. Go figure.

On Sunday, we gave our goodbye and we parted, until another year. I got home at 02h30, having stopped to Cabela's to grab an order for our hunting gear and reload.

While this Fur Fright was interesting in term of meeting people, I must say I was a bit disappointing by the organization. First, when you have to rely that much on overflow hotel that are more than a street corner, it's a sign you've outgrown yourself. Sure, that hotel is quite nice, with the indoor atrium, but when you have to commute between both hotel, it's a realy fun killer, especially when you're tired and need to rest a bit. Second, the programming was to be improved. Last year panels were fun. This years, it could have been better. Too much fur suiting panels or USA propaganda panels (gun, military, dog soldiers, etc) and not enough general panels. Hopefully, next years will have better panel.

Another sore moment was when I showed my sketchbooks to a friend. His first reaction was to ask me that question: "How many gifts do you have in there?". Which, of course, was a big ZERO. All were commission, none were gifts. Which he replied "This really suck. You deserve more." Yes. I think so too. I spent the week before updating daily, pushing a big update. What feedback do I get? None, Niet, Aucun. I see people pushing quarterly updates getting much more feedback, more support, more gifts arts, but when I do one over time, nothing. Why do people writing crappy TF story manage to get requests done by the dozen, and I have to work in the shadow? Why do people say I deserve more and still get nothing. That sure is depressing when it come to updating the site and give back to the community. Especially when I'm told I should be happy I make people 'happy', but the other way around sure isn't important. And it's not to help when you hit the 10th anniversary mark, only to be cast aside by another 10th anniversary, which seem was more worth of mention in a TF blog.

At least, with commission, I can expect to get something back to myself.

When the old site was getting to big for the old server, namely Furvect, its owner bought another machine as a replacement. I sort of discussed with him what we would be needed for the site, and that new machine was sort of the answer. A few weeks before the site was ready, he setup the new servers to which the site is currently running on.

So yes, Process retards, we did move to another server. Just because I'm still working with the Furvect ADMIN doesn't mean I'm on the old Furvect server, bunch of retards.

Which doesn't mean Furvect was out of the loop. The machine was aging BADLY. Even before we moved we could experience various downtime, which were affecting all of Furvect hosted sites (Foxx, Doc, etc). Soon after that we moved, the old Furvect was shut down and the content put into a virtual machine. The reason was to give the current site owners, some of which haven't been heard of in ages, the time to contact the Furvect's administrator in order to give the go to the move and give the new access information.

However, the setup of all those virtual machines left some bugs. One of those bug hit 2 weeks ago and in order to fix thing, require the manual intervention of the server administrator. However, 2 days before, he had to leave out of the country for his work. That left a bunch of people out of the loop has what had happening. No feedback, no on-line presence in over a week (my Trillian is running 24/24 for a reason)... some people started to worries and think of the worse.

But early last week, he got back. We talked about the issue and put the server back on-line. I've been helping him locate the problem with his setup. Hopefully, what was causing the machines not to reboot successfully is now fixed rather than patched.

As for the rest of Furvect, after discussing the issue with him, we may try to migrate all the sites at once and await the feedback from theirs owners, rather than the opposite. This should help put the last nail in the coffin of the old Furvect server, which is sort of nothing more than a zombie right now. And it's sort of difficult to get a sign when there's no response from the site itself, which contains possible contact information.]]> http://www.shadowlordinc.com/forum/posts/preList/45/152.page http://www.shadowlordinc.com/forum/posts/preList/45/152.page GMT http://www.shadowlordinc.com/forum/posts/preList/43/148.page http://www.shadowlordinc.com/forum/posts/preList/43/148.page GMT

And, as I was expecting, it didn't took too long before they started to post hate material and lies toward me. So, lets enlighten a few lies they posted.

Therefore, this is an open letter toward the process and the few statements posted about me.

The thread can be found there: http://www.process-productions.com/forum/showthread.php?t=14099

Statement : I'm an egoistical maniac / an asshole
Sorry, wrong. I'm not a maniac nor egoistical. It's called having a live and asking for respect. If someone can't show respect back, they don't deserve to receive it. Especially when you're an american bratz kid that have been spoiled by your mother your whole childhood and expect everyone else to give you everything for free, without making a single effort. Grow up, the real world doesn't work that way.

Statement : I hate Arania.
I don't hate Arania. I hate what she does and the wrongful popularity she gets. She is the representation of everything that goes wrong in today society. Lazyness, the lesser effort plague, the cheap labor that produce cheap product. If her arts were a product, it would be one of those cheap made in china items, made my kids, containing instruction in Ingrish and which would be defective after 1 week of usage. Yet, you would be shoved that item to your face every day, while local workers keep getting laid out for lack of work. That's what she is. The fact that people worship her bad porn is sickening. All she can produce is porn, not art. And why can I say so? Because everything she draw is off. Her faces look like flat texture and never at the same position on the body between frame, her animals anatomies are totally mixed up (for instance, giving goat balls to a deer, giving a man a cylinder for a penis or giving a bull a horse penis ), her poses are always the same, her plots (or lack of plots) always resolve to someone masturbating while changing, etc. Excuse me, but if you can't draw a penis and don't want to get reference, then DON'T draw it. PERIOD. You don't mix parts just because you never saw it. There's is plenty of references on the internet. Just google for it and there you have it. Giving split hooves to an horse is not a common mistake. It's a sign of laziness.

And don't get me started on the pedophilia she did. This is simply unforgivable, to her and her fans who defend that kind of criminal act.

Statement : I hate Sutibaru and banned him, while inviting him to join a contest.
I banned Sutibaru, because he's a moderator of the board, and as a moderator, he had the responsibility to stop any hate to flame threads that were getting out of hands. But when such thread started to occur, not only didn't he do anything to stop them, he encouraged them, banning people defending me and patting on the back of those throwing libels and lies at me. I banned him for that, because he could have stopped the cancer before it spread. But no, he helped to make it worse. As for the contest, that was before he joins the 'we hate Dragoniade' bandwagon.

Statement : I banned TF-Viewer.
Yes I did. He was one of the few people that constantly posted attack messages toward me, ranging from drug usage to money fraud. Each time my name was mention, he would take pleasure to attack me, on the process and elsewhere


Statement : I'm a slacker for taking vacation after releasing the site.
Excuse me, but I am the only one with a job, or is my feeling that nearly all TF fanboys are either on social security, living on their parent's basement or lazy bratz? When you spent the last 10 months working a full time job, sometime doing 10 hours of overtime, not stopping for the summer, you deserve some time off. Which I did. Now, if for them, the site should be my only focus, sorry, but it won't ever happen. I have mortgage, utilities bills, conventions fees, food to pay, along with all the stuff I do for the site in time and equipment. So unless I can start making 50K a year with transformation content, you can forget it. Especially not when it's a yearly vacation where the date are fixed and unmovable (hunting)

Statement : I started a contest to get free commission art.
Is it me or is that last statements is an antonym? A commission cannot be free, because commission, by definition, involve paying. And as far as I know, a contest involve costs. The last contest cost me quite a few bucks, in term of media, time and shipping, the latest not being cheap to send from Canada to the US or International. And if they had bothered to read, they would have noticed money was involved in the prize too.

Statement : I hold a grudge against their kind. I hate female transformation
I don't hate female transformation. I welcome both gender transformations. But when the transformation of female became a fetish, strengthened when the female was either naked, submitted to the will of a male person, used as a sex toy, this is where I draw the line. Mind you, apply the same treatment to male TF and I would feel the same.

But the picture I got from 'their kind' was that if you don't provide female transformation, then you were less than nothing. Each time someone would post a TF items where it wasn't 100% female, he woulds get flamed. If the female was not in a sexual context, the items was just ok. But if he female sported oversized genitalia, was leaking, was being enslaved by a male (implied or explicit), then it was a masterpiece. Excuse, me but this is pure sexism. I'm not a defender of feminism, but this is crossing the line. I know that a bunch of them only see female as an inferior being, to be used as toy for their pleasure, but not everyone want to return to the stone age. This mentality would also explain why a lot of female arts totally suck, such has having oversized genitalia or breasts/nipples: they never saw a real girl naked in their life.

I like female transformations, but when the transformation is used as a tools to make oneself better by degrading the victims, I find it unacceptable. Especially if it mean you're part or not part of a 'clique' and imply that your work automatically sucks.


Statement : The process members donated.
Well, if they did, I didn't see 'process' in either their name or email when they donated. And seriously, when I look back at the donation list, I have my doubt that the majority of the process donated. And a mere 5$ donations won't give you the key to the site, you can bet on it, nor that it give you privilege to 'crucifiate' me. I banned a few members, but those were already identified and barely donated.

Statement : I am the problem of the whole TF community
One thing that I find amazing is how the process consider themselves the whole TF community. The Process have a big ego problem, which is why I'm not a fan of them. Anything not related to the process is less than nothing. If you don't abide to the Process rules or mentality, then you're an enemy or not worth supporting. Sorry, but wake up. There is more out there than just a board where female being sexually used as a transformation objects. Leave your bubble and you'll discover a world filled with more TF than just your clique. And you'll realize my fight for quality is worth it.

Statement : Female TF fans like sexually explicit material.
Wrong. Bubble mentality, proper to the process. Grow up and try to open yourself a bit more.

Statement : Dragoniade is gay, because he likes male TF
Ugh. That was a free attack. I'm 100% straight, thank you. This kind of statement is more on the bubble mentality of the process and their kind. While they strictly into forcefully transforming others, as a sign of superiority, some people see transformation as an escape, a possibility to experience new ... experiences. Fly like an hawks, swim like a dolphins, run like a cheetah, experience the strength and power of dragons. Some enjoy what it would be to actually feel the transformation. In such case, if you're a male, it's easier to visualize yourself if the character is a male, female if you're a female. And since when getting a picture of yourself make you gay? It's so stupid, that it would make the whole world gay, considering the amount of self-picture taken every day.

Statement : Back then, there were incredibly good artists. Now there are many good artists.
Nope. Back then, nearly every artists were putting pride in their work. Today, a lot of fanboy dare to call themselves good and produce craps, while the really good ones are buried under a ton of shit. All in the name of 'freedom of expressions/speech' or in the "you can't criticize, or it will make the person feel bad". Sorry, but if you suck, consider changing career.

Statement : Stonegate site used to have fictions.
I wouldn't really call it that way. There were about 10 stories from a contest Stonegate ran a few years back. And they were bad, as far as I remember. Nowhere close to that the TSA hold, even these day.

Statement : I banned Trunkated
I banned Trunkated because he, at many occasion, started flame bait conversation that always ended up in personal attacks. Later on, after saying he was sorry, I had my doubt, thinking there were more some stupid 'act first and think later' events, and offered to contact with him to discuss the issues. But after the initial reply, all went silent, which left me with no choice that his "I'm sorry" were far from sincere. So I didn't removed the ban.
