Ironically (or is it just sad) the Night of the Long Knives made the Nazis seem more palatable and the bringers of "order and properness" to Germany, in the eyes of much of the German public. And more importantly the military and the various business interests. So in 1934, who could've known Nazis would be bad for business, eh? They'd just conveniently destroyed the labour movement, too!

Hmmm. Wasn't there just some big dust up in some economic superpower of a country where a massive blow was dealt to a large labor sector by the national government?

Sorry, we held an unstructured vote after leadership dozed off and now we're embracing Martha's Rules of Order, which is to say we all make Martha Stewart's notorious eggnog recipe and sip on it while chatting about our days

I think making everybody an IK in a thread as soon as they post some amount of times in it would probably break the forums at some software level, but if not it could be very funny and possibly even worth the trouble it would cause

Making any sort of automation against the puny forums infrastructure would result in its demise most likely.

I'm actually surprised I didn't get hit with something when I used Excel/PowerQuery to scrape the leper's colony back to however many pages it keeps in live records. When I said something about setting up a python bot to hit the probation button on a post every 6 hours for a perfect chainprobe Astral was very clear in his manner of getting "absolutely NOT" across
