    Just those involved in the ETB project or who have expressed interest in participating herein (looking at you @ChickenFreak). ;) You should have the powers activated now. You'll know when you go to into the Lounge and now there's a wee little box to check next to the front of each thread. And the light is green, my friend. :-D

    This is how I wanted it to be from the beginning because I cannot abide micromanaging (I detest being micromanaged; do it yourself if you don't trust me. :wtf: ) But there's a wonky setting in that upper forum tier that made it so only supermods could have any powers at all up there and only when I changed their base user-group, which, according to everything in Xenforoâ„¢ literature, is supposed to be left alone.

    since we don't have delete powers do you still want us to RTM any significant rule breaks - fuck the workshop/do my homework/ etc

    Thanks! I appreciate that you trust me with this as I'm still a relatively new member here.

    Yes, please! And I'm sorry about not handing out that power as well, but as we have duscussed in the past, it's a touchy area for the owner. :bigfrown:

    That's fine - to much power all at once could lead to us becoming meglomaniacs :D

    So that you guys know I'm on page 163 working forward in time ... if you start from the begining we should meet around page 80 ( i suspect this is going to be quicker than the GW because most stuff in the lounge hopefully belongs there.... I've moved two to feedback and one to software so far

    Yeah. I'd start banning anybody who posts in General Writing, even if it was the appropriate form. LEAVE MY PRECIOUSES ALONE.

    Here's the thing...

    I'm not exactly sure what Daniel wants for that area. I got remonstrated once that it's being used for things other than what he wants, which is why the subforum is on lockdown as regards making new threads. But... I don't know. It feels to me - just from his words in the thread he created in that area - that there is a broad paradigmatic overlap between that area, Articles, and Resources. I know that he did not mean for that area to be about threads looking for insight and inspiration, but instead meant for threads that would provide the aforementioned. But, I feel like that's what Articles is for...? I mean look at the two articles Mashers wrote. Gobsmackingly good and drenched in both insight and inspiration. But I think they're best housed as they are, in Articles.

    *shrug*

    Daniel has a nerve remonstrating with our Pops *shakes fist*

    I guess I'll peg threads I&I for resources if they're resourcey, and otherwise leave them in The Lounge.

    Acknowledged. But a girl can dream. And everything has to start somewhere. :bigwink:

    In my head, I heard that to the tune of "Rock the Casbah".

    "Sharif don't like it / Fuck the workshop / Fuck the workshop"

    I was only joking. I'll move them to Publishing.

    And before we get too ahead of ourselves, we need to know where started so we can know how far we get. ;)

    There is a lot of stuff in I&i which has no business being in there - perhaps team ETB ought to go clear it out when we get done with the lounge

    My Air Force is equipped with Saab Drakens and Gripens. Perhaps not the newest or the best, but they score high on the "Star Wars as Fuck!" scale. :-D

    We can leave GW alone for now. The wanted goal was reached. I'd rather we moved on to other areas where you should find you have new power of movage! :) (Also, I've got a stonking big work-work project I need to get into today and I won't have much time to deal with thread reports).
