Hello. While I was exploring AG-based Xats, I've met several unactive/banned/"old-school" AG Users. Most of them said that, one of the main reasons to their inactivity here is that the site was better before.

Is that true?

How better? They say that the threads had more quality back in time.

Well, I can't tell if it was. I joined June 26th, so that's not too much knowledge on our awesome site...

It has also been locked. Awww... you had to go and start posting didn't you? Two weeks it was back and unlocked.

It's only locked for the time being until certain mods figure out what's going on with it.

They put it into our reach, only to grab it back away moments later ;(

Thewahuh? WHAT LINK? I don't want to get poisoned again...


A link that explains why Walker had been on leave for so long, if it exists.

It has psychic powers, which were dormant for two weeks, but then kicked in about 20 minutes ago and caused a mass-posting.

This time, though, it was taken down after only 2 pages rather than 200.

No, I'm fairly sure it's locked so it doesn't return to it's previous stage of snowballing destruction.

I have a reliable source for why it was locked, as in I talked to the mod who did it.

Nope, Frank told us he locked it until they/he figures out what's going on.

I was trying to avoid outright saying Frank did it, Master.

I think it's indubitable that the thread will not be unlocked intentionally ever again.

I learned a new word today, so it is indubitable that I will use it every chance I get to make myself sound more smarterer.

They're torturing it O.o A few of the posts have been deleted...


I noticed this, too. I have a feeling some of our posts counts are going to be reduced slightly; though I doubt we'll notice if we're posting here regularly anyway.

No, I'm fairly sure it's locked so it doesn't return to it's previous stage of snowballing destruction.


I think they should at least give it a second chance to see if it actually does end up spiraling into a vortex of indubitable insanity.

What do you mean what's going on? I emailed Justin a few times and he said it got accidentally deleted and he was going to try to bring all the posts back, but then he said they can't because they're too busy with AG3. Meh, I remember when "You're Banned" was deleted and Cormyn brought it back in a few minutes, so it shouldn't be difficult.

Now i feel really confused as to wether or not what i did was a bad thing.

You used to be able to see him quite often in the WEPR and tavern, but he disappeared around May. Seems like a few of them have disappeared.

Walker, Asherlee, Zophia, and Voidy are the one's I've noticed. Ash was supposed to be back a while back since her hiatus was for the summer, but... Walker had something on his profile about a heart attack, still not sure whether or not that was a joke. Zophia is lurking so far as I'm aware, and I have no idea what happened to Devoidless.

Well, I'm sure it would be fine if we weren't freaking out that the TTICA is back


The shock wouldn't have lasted more than a few pages. The topic would have changed indubitably at some point.

Seems like a few of them have disappeared.


They disappear so often now it's almost expected. I'm more surprised when I see an influx of moderators now than when I see a lack of them. We're all used to it, though. It's been this way ever since the beginning of time.

Has it really? I remember being somewhat surprised when I first found out about Ash mid way through 2010 because I had never seen her before, but it seemed to me that the core group of mods were fairly active: Strop, Gantic, Cenere, NoName, Zophia, and I think that's about it. Then again, maybe I just conveniently miss the times they are inactive.
