Congrats you two.

Is now a good time to admit that every single damn time I view u's chosen nickname, I keep thinking of a really REALLY crap Phil Collins track?

Uss... Uss... Imiel

Thanks, guys!

It's an honour to be given such a responsibilty among such excellent people. I'll do my very best to live up to the task.

I'd like to thank dlb very much for his great work here and also welcome my new co-mod, SD. We'll try and not overdo the wordplay :lol:

Is it possible that we finally have a new topic in the TLD forum that doesn't have any negative posts about the ending???

I don't like these new mods. They are a huge disappointment. I feel very letdown by their selection. I prefer the original mod, he was more developed in his character, he did not constantly repeat himself, he progressed as a mod. I am very upset.

better? :wink:

The administrators totally jumped the shark when they brought that one mod back to life.

The lack of descriptive narrative on how they *became* mods was highly disappointing. I mean, are we just to accept that one minute the world was going to end, and the next minute, SD and u. became mods?

And the way they just bitch-slapped Dlb out of nowhere?
And the way the whole thing had no poster-driven plot...it was all just admin tricks to keep the READERS ignorant.

Plus, what is the new rainbow graphic at the end of the forum all about? It doesn't fit the theme of the rest of the forum.

...and here's a photo of The Last Dark forum, showing the peace and tranquility spreading over it, once SD and Sussussudio have remade the place using their combined lore.

Nothing sickeningly cutesey about that at all...

PS I have it on excellent authority that U is the one holding the toy bunny. There's apparently a clue in the picture...

That's hilarious, TheFallen! Usually I can't stand My Little Ponies and CareBears, but I am coming around to them now :lol:

As to the The Last Modark, well I am of two minds about it. I mean I kinda like the new characters and enjoyed the bitchslapping bit (that last mod was a bit of a dozy bint anyway! :lol:) and I am worried about the Raver that's been left on the loose. I mean what's the point of that!!! There's all these ponies and cuddly bears gambolling around probably looking like Ready-Meals to it 8O

I'm not sure which one of us swallowed Foul. I suppose all y'all'll figure that out when the Good Cop-Bad Cop routine kicks in! :biggrin:
