    1. @mrn4rmn4rm Cabal has been giving the domain to PT for a while. That's not a new development.

    2. @rotation I can't say I'm sad to see him go. He's been a thorn in my side ever since I took over from @cabal. First, he criticised me for advertising BroNYCon on the site (which I pay for!). Then he gave me a bunch of sour grapes because his brony meetups in Ohio are not as successful as mine in NYC. Most recently, he got on my case for not subscribing to an annoying user who kept asking me to subscribe to them and I kept saying 'no'. Plus, adding irony to insult, he criticised me for (accidentally) breaking the PG-13 rule (which I did not establish, which I do not like, and which is GOING to be rescinded as soon as we get an optional-for-18+ censorship system in place)..... and HE'S the one who said he'd code the censoring plugin that would make the entire swearing issue moot. Derp.

        1. @mrdragon Starshine was never going to be happy with me, no matter what. I think he was/is jealous of me. I recognise jealousy; I used to be a very jealous foal.

          1. @purpletinker Well, we can't delve into the past. What is done is done, RDN works, and I don't see any issue with that myself.

      2. @purpletinker Well this is a very one-sided opinion from you. I feel kinda slighted that you call them *his* Ohio meetups, which have been quite successful and aren't just run by him, but by a group of four of us including myself. My take on the matter is that the site should be neutral towards meetups and cons; it's not really a battle over popularity in the first place and it's a mild abuse of power to pimp your own gigs simply because you have the ability to. Personally I think it'd be best to randomly highlight a meetup from anywhere, whether yours, or ours, or Calgary's, our whatever. As to PG-13, I was under the impression that he wasn't even for that. It's a silly, silly rule. *shrug* There's always been far too much bitterness between you two and far too little collaboration, and that's no good. I truly hope that somehow you guys can work things out, as friendship is magic, duh. But srsly, this situation saddens me.

        1. @rpb3000 Well, it saddens me too. I'd rather make up with @starshine if I could. As for advertising at the top right, it's simple: You pay the bills, you get to pimp whatever you want to pimp (within reason and legality). I pay the bills when nopony else is sponsoring the site.

          1. @purpletinker Yeah, I actually like that system a lot. It's quite fair, and can allow for much silliness. Is there a limit to how many days one can buy?

            1. @rpb3000 No limit at all.

              1. @purpletinker Seems like that could be dangerous :p I might be interesting in purchasing a few days soon, does one merely email you and be like "I WANT DIS!" ?

                1. @rpb3000 Yes.
