Also, folks should be posting the link in the GBS thread, every page. Strike while the iron is hot.

In that case, I registered six months ago with the cool kids! New username though, so my bland poo poo posts can't be traced :ninja:

Why would it be a bad thing to post that you registered? Even if you're using the same name, wouldn't that add to any sort of authenticity of the newly registered account on B&R?

This thread isn’t about an off-site, it’s about a serious abusive situation, and there’s already a thread dedicated to off sites that it’d be more appropriate for

The people who have been doing great jobs helping people successfully transition to the site, including approving accounts, have repeatedly consistently said not to do it here; the mods who have been trying desperately to keep us updated on the situation and get in touch with the abused woman and make sure she’s safe have repeatedly consistently said not to do it here; why then would you continue to do it here? Nobody’s said don’t talk about it at all ever, just in a more appropriate thread

It's like they emerged from a cryo chamber totally unchanged from the late nineties. They didn't evolve any in the two decades and as such, they sound like an out of place relic. It's not that it's bad, it's that the world moved on while they were in stasis.

after reading all the police reports, I would really like to find a way to setup a trust or something for Lowtax's daughters, accessible only to them and in equal portion. No idea how to do it logistically but it feels right.

Holy heck Petey there's a blast from the past

If I had to guess, the attorney handling custody of his third kid told him to shut the gently caress up or else they’re dumping him as a client. He’s probably screwed his chances of getting custody.

I don’t know if there’s a specific way to tell that from our end, tbh.

I don’t think there’s any going back to normal though. If Lowtax refuses to either step down or sell, either we try to make an “official” successor and abandon ship, or we simply turn the proverbial lights out when we leave and let the place be a ruin. I, personally, won’t stay if Lowtax does. I haven’t seen a mod disagree with that sentiment.
