If the Report button is clicked in a forest, and nobody is around to see it, does it still make an alert?
Oooh, some existentialist mumbo-jumbo to think about!

I'm sure you'd know already, but to clarify: The Report Button uses an 'it takes two to go through' policy. So if two people report someone then the Mods are alerted, but an accidental click won't flood their inboxes with crap.

Hmm....you are wise Awesome Lord.....I will keep that in mind while i feed Cthulhu the scraps from my table.
First pointer though, recognise the gender of the person you're talking to. Also, Cthulhu's currently running a cafe. He does great food at reasonable prices and splendid coffee. I don't recommend trying to take him from there.
True, but a Lord can still apply to a lady (which you quite obviously are) *Suck up FTW!*. Really!? But i can see Cthulhu right here....

The escapist mods have access to subspace, they can tap into this where they retrieve there mighty ban hammers. (see Shao Kahn from MK & Amy from Sonic).

Edit: Thats a reply to the OP's second question.

But that leads to another question. If Decoy and Gigantor also won and got titles, why aren't their names in italics?

As far as I recall, even Nuke doesn't know.
Actually, I pieced it together. I get the italicized, along with Joe and Yahtzee and a handful of other folks due to having a custom user title and a Contributor badge. This is just theory though, but my word might as well be law on the topic, because even Virgil had no clue when I asked him.

It doesn't make a alert so much as it quietly settles down and makes note of its own depressed state. When a mod comes along and notice it depressed, they wonder who the hell reported a forest when the last post in the forest was in the 16th of December, 1969.

Shame the glitch didn't work for me :(

He won a review contest which concerned the Fallout franchise. Thus, the title fits.

Oh, well, he's just extra loved.

I hope you realize that your avatars are keeping me from my sleep. I've been staring at your new one for the past five minutes. Why are you keeping me from sleep? I like sleep. (That said, your avatar is still awesome)

There's this guy, right, who's title rather than being related to his post count or awesome deeds is 'The Man So Nice they Named him Twice'. Now as far I can tell he has always had that title and once I (along with many others no doubt) PM'd him about and he said that he didn't know why he had it. I asked one of the staff and they said it would be better to not ask any questions... I was afraid. Why was he so nice and why did they name him twice? will they come to name me twice next? is anyone safe? Hold me.

How does that Asylum game have like a bazillion PAGES and is still going? I thought that stuff like that either got locked or eventually ran out of steam but hot damn, that's the little RP that can.

Yahtzee was sounding pretty sick in his Dante's Inferno review? Was it the devil tormenting him for the terrible sin of not finishing The Witcher before reviewing it or was using chemical warfare against game critics part of EA's marketing plan. Was it perhaps both?

How come there are three Australian moderators and like... one English moderator when more traffic comes from the UK? Always seemed kinda skewed to me. Conspiracy perhaps? Must investiagte further.

How come maybe every two months or so the website goes offline for a bit and then for some it appears that there are no threads left. My guess is some sort of forum purge but it's really kind of strange to click on 'off-topic' and see 'Opps, no threads have been created yet'.

EDIT: WHy is it that when I write a post intended for the second page it ends up on the top of third. Happens more than you would think, but never for the second, fourth, fifth, sixth etc page.

How come people who joined after me have post counts with 10,000 more posts then me? Is this site really that addicting?

I have also wondered this. But i did go through a period of just occasionally logging on to check videos and read the news articles and not really using the forums, but still some people seem to have a ridiculous amount of posts for the time they have been here.

I stole your pants, any your memory of me stealing your pants.

I do believe that little thread went and got itself locked just yesterday.

I just went and looked that up, its insane. Somewhere along the way it completely de-railed though as the posts about halfway through have noting to do with the original.

Kuliani and by extension the forums needed a rag tag team of Aussies to prowl the forum at "Strange o Clock" when the rest of the world is sleeping and or opening their blurry eyes.

Before UltraJoe was created and LaCoil was drafted into service trolls were prevalent during the times of 4am till 10am GMT, due to the time difference its when the Aussies are at full power, the Dominator purrs and the BanMjopnir is in full swing.

Its been a huge success as you can tell.

Also have you seen VrChld?, she's fast at telling people off, kudos to her.
