For the second time this hour the Mod Lounge appeared to me. No seriously, I could see it and was able to go in too. I messaged AoK and she said she wasn't 100% versed in the forum software and admin CP so after seeing it a second time I thought I'd just report it in here.
I don't have any hard numbers on this, but I'm targeted more often than a black guy driving a beat-up sedan with a broken tail-light and no license plate, and Cy's well aware of that.
@Yoda: Prior to this instance, other people seemed to be capable of accessing five or so forums in the Off-Limits area. Except two were Mod Lounge (one was dupe-link?).
I understand what you mean, though. As I mentioned, wonder if it's a weird-as-heck April Fool's joke run early (or on-time in some parts of the world, since it's 9:20PM EST 3/31/08 in New York City).

Well, I'll examine this from afar for the time being, given that I've left one post that will most certainly receive an infraction, and then be deleted. Tromping the wrong domains, but chance is a fickle thing.
EDIT: Post there deleted. If this actually is a side-effect of Hannes' server overhaul or what-has-he, I won't dabble.
Why don't yall, you know, stay out of the forum and show some respect?
Because of their own stupidity, they gave us access to it (well, I guess it was Lesurgo, not all of them).
There is no reason why we are not allowed in a forum we are allowed to go in.
It is nice to see the true faces behind the ******** that they spew in places where we can see them.
"If I do go to heaven, I'll smack god across the face and tell him to get me a grilled-cheeses sandwhich and then say 'Yea what now god!? Say some'in! I dare you!' "
I'd appreciate if you guys didn't fool around in there. There's a reason why it's a private forum. I can't control you obviously until Hannes gets on and can fix this, but can we please use the honor system here? If Memnarch6 can, so can everybody else. Sometimes the best mysteries are the unsolved ones!
Everyone is being simply terrible about this! Have you no respect for anyone? It's enough to make me physically ill, the way people talk! All of you, moderators and nonmoderators, shouldn't be talking this way about other people.

Well, unfortunately, some people seize this as one of those once-in-a-forumtime chances. Granted, I enjoyed a brief stint with the bandwagon, but I know that this'll take its own course, and watching from a distance is indeed the best rational course of action, I think.
However, given the issues between two views on the recent issue of resignation (I believe people understand), there will be fire. I'll stay out of the way with the extinguisher in hand once this all dies down, because people would rather take advantage of error than let it be fixed. Not to mention people are entitled to wondering why mods will vent as such, but I take it simply on the premise that they're human beings like us. They have their own opinions. They can choose to espouse them publicly or privately.
That aside, I hope a good amount of the stuff is joke-work, but...let things be.

And you are being simply terrible in the fact that you think people do not act like this all the time.
People are all *******s. There is always a piece of someone, no matter how much you may deny it, that is a complete and absolute *******.
If you can not accept this, you are ignorant, and have no idea how life works.
"If I do go to heaven, I'll smack god across the face and tell him to get me a grilled-cheeses sandwhich and then say 'Yea what now god!? Say some'in! I dare you!' "
No, I cannot accept that, because that is not how I think, feel, and believe.
I'm sorry if my worldview differs from yours, but I don't hate you for it. I don't hate anyone. Hate speeds the entropy of the universe, after all, and that is what is truly pointless.
I feel sorry for you, that's all, because you cannot feel love and peace.

I'm down with this. If there's one thing that I learned from 18 years with my parents, it's that whatever happens behind closed doors is best left unexplored.
That said, is there any chance that I can get my access to the Writer's Forum back in the near future (say, later tonight)? I'm fine waiting, as someone else is probably in charge, but I was just about to update something in there a bit later. If I need to wait, though, I can do that too.

I never once stated that I could not feel love and peace.
However, I will once again repeat myself in saying that you are completely ignorant.
The world is a terrible and corrupt place, and everyone in it is corrupt.
People act one way with someone and backstab them at the first chance they can get all the time. Get used to it.

i think you hit the nail on the head there. i have no permissions to any of the hidden forums yet for about 2 hours i had access to all of them and there were 2 mod lounges. one, which i could get into, and the other i could not. the one i could get into is the one everyone can view now.
it's also a little fishy that there are so few threads in that forum. sure they could have been deleted but why leave one post threads from 2006 made by a banned member? i believe some of those threads to be lifted from the true mod lounge and some to have been created. or they are all "lifted". or perhaps it is a mistake and i'm way off base but it feels like a prank to me. either way it's funny and kinda cool.
I don't know if you've looked in the lounge enough (stay out, darn it!), but there IS a post by Lesurgo talking about how he deleted many of the unused threads. We do it about twice a year, to remove clutter. Some threads, which are too funny, or just needed, are kept.

You shall be cursed by your own hatred, and wrapped in the bonds of hate by your own karma. So be it.
@Unkle-J: This would have to be quite the elaborate hoax by Hannes if anything. I'm doubtful, but some part of me would like to agree with that. Anyway, I'd prefer to let the wildfire run its course, without throwing gas on it. If other members are going to do so, I will let them, but it only will make the cleanup of the charred remains that much worse. *gets shot for bad metaphor*
I'm going to sleep. Hopefully this will be fixed soon and the fires will subside. If not...extinguisher at the ready, I guess.
