Whoa, reflection time!

Whoa, apparently a lot has happened over my short leave from this forum. Would anyone like to explain exactly what hapened to DNR, new mods, and people getting banned (vile(s))? Since I wouldn't want this thread to go to waste, we can also talk about how the forum has evolved over a year.

Listen, Matt, I was going to PM you. Can you handle me the account you created for hosting Keen Events? I need a place to host the KeenCaptors page.
Thanks in advance!

DNR isn't dead. It's just been moved and labotamized. There's a new forum for that stuff and StrRedWolf is considering creating another forum for Forum games like this instead of sending to the spam forum. The post count is currently limited to 200 posts per thread (10 pages) and I believe the new threads auto delete the oldest, unused threads. DNR was actually crashing the forums. That's why it's been locked and the post count limited.

DNR was actually crashing the forums.
It was quite obvious. First major forum crash happened when DNR reached 100th or something page, and even though everything else was fixed, it remained disfunctional.
Let's be sublimed for Matt Lim:
Forums are being pruned. Auto-pruning is on now, which means old posts are being deleted, as Faub said.
10 pages limit for thread, but there are 20 posts per page now and threads continuing the old ones are welcomed.
No nonsense threads in this forum, or plugs for that matter. There are new forums for that. It seems like wondering off topic is still ok here (if not too off-topic) and asking for opinions too.
New moderators are Faub and Phalanx. YeahDuff yould became another one.
As for Vile *breaths in*
Vile mails STR saying that Yarps promised to ban her if he becames moderator, pointing at two old threads where he did say so. STR bites and removes Yarps from mod list. Yarps contacts STR and explains him the nature of Vile's behaviour from before a few months, that made him say that in the first place. STR sets Yarps back and bans Vile right away.
Now, majority of people here, excluding three or four that I can think of (me among others), signs a petition to unban VileTerror. A board is flooded with threads about that. So, apparently, Vile is unbanned now.
I think I've been unbiased as it gets.
Anyone, did I forget something?

There's an account to handle Keen Events?! Can I glom on to that for my Keenime Hearts event? I was just thinking of posting it on my keenspace site, but having another site to host it on would be wonderbar.

No, because I'm not allowed and Matt Lim likes me!

Yeah, so ha!
But seriously, if you want to use Keen Events for your event, go ask RPin for it since he is currently using it.

Sure we can share the same space. I'll PM you some ideas soon, blue bug.

Matt, I think we just stepped off the same bus. I open the forum, and I turn to my terrier and say, "I don't think we're in Kansas anymore."

Yeah no kidding Sloan, it's more like, "Why did Kansas beat me up and take my lunch money?"

Mmhmmm. I guess I did miss a weekend.
Didn't see the Superbowl either. But I get real porn.

Heh, really. I logged in twice yesterday, unlike usual days when I log once, and still I was accused that I wasn't here when all the things happened.

Haha - I dont normally read the newspaper, but I just did right now and I get the comment! What a shocker!
And as for the changes - I was a witness!!!
