GD Lounge

Nah, we actually discussed it recently. As long it's collated to a single thread at any given time, we don't really have an issue with the community having a "lounge" or off-topic thread as a way to chat and have a bit of fun.

You have my blessing.

<Edit: This will be highly scrutinized though. If things get rough and rowdy, I have no problem shutting this down immediately.>

Thanks.

So, um...

The trend of them being deleted regularly is going to stop then?

No I mean more why are you still here when you legitimately said being here was unhealthy for you.

I mean this in the nicest way possible since when you said that you asked to be reminded if you reappeared.

Unless you're a different Pounce with 50,000 posts then my bad.

Changed my mind.

Well, "them" is the relative term. It should really only be this thread until it gets to a size where its slow/forum-breaking and another is made (in theory).

No, I mean...

Well, the reason we disguise them as "Elf Appreciation" and "Hug A Whatever" threads is because over the past, like, 5 years I've been posting here, moderators tend to delete the social threads even when only one is active.

We were even calling them Lounge threads for months on end, and they still got deleted.

I've been pretty lax on them since I started here, but this one should be fine.

I see what you mean in the past, but a bit of a change of direction here for the sake of community building.

Ah, the wonders (i.e. cancer) of solo blind pick queue.

Which is why I just started picking up Smite, and got the god pack for 30 bucks. Every character released, and that will be released.

Not saying League is bad by any means, you do you. But I just couldn't handle how toxic the community was. Granted, Smite's is pretty bad some times too, but nowhere near to the same degree.

every game has there group of toxic players especially in pvp communities

Its very much the nature of competitiveness, so its not too surprising (however disheartening it can be).

Oh hi, everyone. Finally home.

Hi I'm ... dead inside

Same.

Good evening, all!

Hi, I want to type in blue

This job opening is about as close as I can get you at the moment.

Night all!

Are you guys just like... awake all night?

Good morning!

I actually got more sleep than usual. Best to think of us as having overlapping shifts.

That's always a good thing - but likely true. I figured a lot of folks here when I left were perhaps working a night shift, etc etc.

Was mainly targeted at Koro cause I feel like he's always here, though.

I had a dream that I overslept til 4pm and I wasn't sure if at that point I should call my boss or just go back to sleep...

I'm sorry, this is making my eye twitch. Can you correct the spelling of 'official' in the title?

Fixed. Didn't even notice that somehow.

Koro is always here, at any time. He is the Warden of the Forums, he never sleeps.

If I could give out titles, it would be that one.

I am flattered yet frightened that somebody with power over my posting habits is noticing a pattern in said posting habits.

Habits become your destiny (or some silly 4th grade inspirational poster wall quote).

a troll bear form? Im sad now :(

IKR.

Sad because of jealousy? I'm ultra excited. Didn't want to post too much before I was graced with this beauty. Now I feel the need to let every thread know.

You guys are all neat.

Hope everyone has a good weekend.

GOOD MORNING AZEROTH
