It's a good thing I brought an entire suitcase of carrier pigeons with me. I can probably restock when I reach Pet Island.

He's going through TG right now, so it's clearly a suitcase of holding. It's fine.

i smell a rat. this whole operation is a ruse. op is part of the fyadqcs cabal and all of the fyad probings were arranged in advance. it's all for show, and the rest of this whole posting adventure is nothing but misdirection.

in the end, op's account will not be banned and this will be used as evidence to disprove the existence of the fyadqcs permaban campaign against innocent gbs posters who have dared to speak out. more gbs posters will be lured to visit fyad as a result, and they will learn the hard way when it's bye bye to their accounts.

and really, it could not be more obvious. i mean for heaven's sake, op's name is "shadow" and where does the fyadqcs cabal operate? that's right. they're throwing it in our faces and there's nothing we can do about it.

📝 Travel update:

PGS is great - if you know there's demand for your server before you set up your thread. My thread is still almost the top thread though, even after a couple of days, so it might just be that the subforum is very sleepy. I didn't want to pick something so general that similar threads already existed, but also I didn't really check if anyone wanted my exact server/thread. Oh well, maybe someone will find the thread useful in the next month that it stays relevant.

When I arrived in TG, I had noticed a thread that felt suspiciously like my own idea for a thread. I don't know why I decided not to check it, but I still think the threads are different enough. Unfortunately, my thread may have been a bit too difficult to reply to. Someone in the thread had suggested a good idea for a thread, but with many of my resources an ocean away, I am in some ways limited.

TGR is wonderful, I used to visit a lot a few years ago, and I still owe the posters there a favor.
It's great to see the Mafia crew are still dedicated to their craft. I considered running a Mafia game again, but I elected to go with Dungeons & Dragons.
We already have some signs up for the game, and it looks like it's going to be a lot of fun.

I wasn't sure how well my thread would go in D&D. Unfortunately, I don't have a lot of deep knowledge of topics relevant there, and finding something that wasn't already covered was going to be a challenge. Still I think I found something worth discussing. But I was very surprised at how quickly the thread picked up posts.
I think it's one of the more popular subforums, even if it is often a contender on people's list of least favorite ones. And yet, at least in my own thread, people are discussing the topic with a civility you unfortunately don't see in other parts of the Internet, which is nice to see.
Though perhaps the thread just hasn't become controversial enough yet (which is probably good).

I know Ask threads are usually more interesting, and maybe Ask me about cultural fatigue might have been a better thread, but we'll see how this one goes. I have approximate knowledge of many things, but I don't know anything extremely deeply. Especially something that doesn't clearly just belong in another subforum. Oh well.
