I assume you mean K8
I see her on the gram every blue moon, last I saw she was getting a pic with Tori
Did you tell her we need her on the board as our token female? Lily only comes here when she needs something and Twangirl only posts about grocery stores.

Can't imagine why our female engagement in this community is so low!
Maybe we should try a ticket giveaway.

What are you saying? Ban Space Freely cause of all his comments about young ones and carpetmunching?
I wish you would just come out and say what you are getting at!

I'm just saying we could try giving away a pair of tickets to any verified women who post here to make up for all the toxic masculinity and offense.

Yeah I don’t know…buying women…..I don’t know that that’s the way to go….By the way Lily needs an extra for Snow Patril tonight! Not sure why she didn’t post in the free ticket request thread.
Agree that the rampant rapacious toxic masculinity around these parts might be off putting.
Maybe Kosmo needs to step up a bit…get out of his moderator comfort zone.

I am all of a sudden struck with how long this community has been around and how people can have been here for a decade+ and yet not remember foundational events within the board lore and, Jesus Christ, what are we all doing with our lives?

I am waiting out the clock and probably punching out in a decade or two.
A lot of the foundational lore precedes me or I was oblivious to it….

It is amazing that some of you have been here for 25 + years

Do we need a greatest hits thread?

There should be a welcome kit for newbies (about one per year..) with “Julian’s guide to folk lore”….at least a cliff notes version!
Wait..maybe not Julian…he will hype himself up too much…and those damn integers
Maybe we need a committee!!!

If only there were some sort of META: User-Curated HoF thread someone had graciously taken the lead in compiling for all of you!

Well that should be pinned at the top of the forum, and an thorough read should be required during our annual recredentialling process.

I love when people start presenting things I've been saying for a decade as their own ideas.

But I’d be wrong. The Blow me, Joey account from January 2024 probably wins
