        @GF I wish I had it archived somewhere. The last version of it I saw was on WORA and was translated into Swedish Chef in order to avoid her stupid take-down bullshit.

        I know there were “orbs” where her eyes should be, and there was definitely “emeraldine silk” in her gown. But it wasn’t even really all that bad. It would’ve disappeared from collective memory by now if she hadn’t had a temper tantrum.

            I wish you would.

                @SpaceKhomeini The bell is ToL-ing.

                ETA: I’ve spent far, far too long looking at archive.org, alas they don’t have the individual wiki pages for all the famed personae of that era.

                    I’m still waiting for the point where we can all gather around the fire and reminisce about Bane stories.

                          I’m pretty sure it was a butt.

                            I don’t feel able to tell the boat story in a way that does it justice and MSB’s search function is an atrocity if you can’t log in (if it migrated there at all, it was immortalized a couple boards back).

                            Bane was a weirdo who liked to aggressively tell people they were wrong and he was right (honestly, he’s very hard to explain if you aren’t experiencing him post and post for months, the stack of aggravation of high). Bane made a game. People had I think some OK experiences there? But it didn’t take off right away and he got very ‘Am I Out of Touch, no, it’s the Children Who are Wrong’ about it. He wrote a very long blog post about how the game was a boat, and the boat had sunk, but it wasn’t the fault of the boat maker, it was the fault of…idk, the world, and really he was still right about everything.

                            Some enterprising person (Brus or Peverel I think?) took this blog post and rewrote it changing ‘boat’ to ‘butt’, among some other wonderful wordplay, and it was a fine, fine time.

                            This is why archives of these stupid boards are important lol.

                              @Third-Eye I believe he was talking about the development of…Crimson Skies I think? It was was pulp fiction steampunk kind of game. And he just had some of the weirdest game policies I had ever encountered. I can’t remember exactly, but something about how plots and scenes were set up were just wild, even if I do think my brain has tried to erase the fact that I even played there out of sheer morbid curiosity.

                              And then yes, he proceeded to blame everyone else for game failing because he was the One True Mush Developer who understood who game making really worked and all other forms are inadequate.

                                Brus.

                                And it was also partly because Bane decided that TinyMUX/MUSH/Rhost were all ass and he was going to make his OWN type of game and call it … I honestly can’t remember what he was going to call it. But it was just TinyMUX repackaged with … I wanna say . instead of + for commands?

                                So after the boat post. Brus wrote up a parody about how Bane was going to build a BETTER boat and call it a BUTT.

                                ETA: Fuck my ADHD longterm memory why is this garbage in my head but I can’t remember where I set my stupid phone down.

                                          I’ve been sitting on this for a few days because I’ve been trying to figure out how to address this peeve or even if I wanted to address it at all. But in light of what I will now call ‘MachaGate’ on The Pack thread, and the fact that this was said:

                                          @Bessarion said in Why is Pack closing?:

                                          Jesus fuck. This person deserves to be named, shamed, and yeeted into the fucking sun. Twice.

                                          @Cobalt, I am so sorry you had to read this again to redact this horrific hell-log.

                                          And the fact that I think people deserve to know who they are dealing with so they can opt in or out of participating with a person they have deemed previously problematic, I am putting this out there. @Bessarion, are you Tek?

                                            While I agree with the sentiment, in part, if this person is Tek, they’ve done their best to distance themselves from that moniker. (Here, MSB, and through Ares). So if they are Tek, they’re not likely to answer truthfully when called out publicly.

                                            So if you really need to know you can ask them privately, or you can just block/ignore/whatever the function is called.
