Citing lowtax's often absenteeism from the forums, some moderators of these forums, including mcnally, attempted to legally take control of the physical server these forums are hosted in. A loyalist admin was able at to thwart the attempted coup banning the perpetrators however this currently leaves this subforum without a moderator. Due to this power vacuum and civil unrest in the current events thread and cop thread Godholio, Mare, and myself have seized power and will govern as a triumvirate until free and democratic elections can be established.

We should be getting mod powers tomorrow morning but in the meantime we have no actual authority here and thus we must ask everyone not to poo poo up the forums.

And no, we are not joking https://forums.somethingawful.com/banlist.php?userid=124121 more details will be revealed in the following days.

update: Mcnally and the others were trying to help lady ambien get control over the servers citing lowtax's mental health in court. Lowtax is on the verge of just deleting everything. If you aren't in the gip discord you might want to join because there is a non zero chance these servers might not exist in a week.

lowtax just deleting everything because "gently caress it" seems pretty plausible tho. they didn't need to come up with some kind of elaborate story, they literally could have just said "lowtax is an old man and is so tired, so tired. he is delete everything"

we timed poo poo hoping that it would give us enough plausible deniability that everyone else wouldn't catch on before we could lock down the panel and forums access. I've already lost my panel access and most my admin access and I expect the ban to come any second now. I want you guys to know I really wanted to have your backs and I'm sorry for how this is going down, im sorry for not doing more sooner, we really wanted the forums to be a better place for everyone

gently caress you cyrano, gently caress you jeffrey. every single thing we tried to do to make the forums even modestly less lovely was strangled by you two being lovely wannabe thread cops

was it like a mission impossible thing where people were having to zipline into his suburban abode and hack his gibson at the source on a hardwired line and there were synchronized watches ticking down and it seems like it's going to work! but alas, a double agent working for the bad guys ends up murdering the only hacker to successfully breach the firewall, and oh no now the jig is up!
