Some of you may remember me (mostly the oldies). I don’t know how much of the original Acmlm Board community is left here. I know it’s gone through several incarnations, from hell with Xkeeper as the main admin when it was on acmlm.org, to Xkeeper hell here, and now I see that you’re free of that hell.

The whole reason the community had multiple incarnations, the whole reason it split after what, the 3rd one – well, that’s gone I see. Acmlm removed Xkeeper of his admin rights. I will not say “I told you so” or “I saw it coming” even if I did. Even though I was banned the first time Xkeeper demolished the board in a similar fashion to what happened again (this is at least the 3rd time he’s wiped the board’s database).

Regardless of what has happened in the past, we’re now faced with an even larger issue as a community: not two, but now three boards. I’ve seen it happen to other communities in the past and, after a split, it’s always difficult to recover. What usually happens is one community thrives, and the other sinks rapidly to the bottom of the internets, only occasionally brought up with a “Hello” or “Buy Viagra” post.

So we have 3 communities now – acmlm.org (aka ||board), acmlm.no-ip.org (aka “Board II”), and Xkeeper’s Place (aka “Tantrum Center with dictator admin”). Perhaps a community merge can take place?

I’ve discussed this with ||bass. We would welcome Acmlm and blackhole as board developers (as much as I may disagree with blackhole), and even be willing to sacrifice our database with the importation of yours. In return, we can host the board and have it return to its rightful name (acmlm.org). Of course, the communities (acmlm.org and acmlm.no-ip.org’s) would be merged back together. Together, we were a very fun and active community, and we could remain as such. Our policy on ||board is quite simple: Don’t flood. Don’t advertise. That’s pretty much it. We wouldn’t ban people for “Being stupid” nor for “Flaming”. It’s the internet, after all: You’re bound to have “Stupid” users, and “Flaming” users. If they cannot learn to get along, then they will leave on their own. Of course, we haven’t had serious issues on ||board with these, but hell – we’re not overly active anyway.

So, my proposal is Acmlm’s ||board II. Or maybe just Acmlm’s ||board. Not only are you all welcome to come over to our side, we’re willing to make concessions needed for you and whatever needed to bring you back our way! Let the past be just that. Together, we could surpass our former glory. A fun community with a fun board is the aim of both of our communities. Not a dictator-run board with a narrow, self-centered staff (or head admin). Despite what you may believe or have heard about myself, ||bass, or FreeDOS, we are very friendly, intelligent, and open people who don’t throw temper tantrums, and don’t “Plant bombs” in the board software to destroy databases on a given date/time (for the 3rd time).

Well, what say ye, the goers of Board II? Now that the entire reason you left us (Xk’s temper tantrum) is in the past, shall we re-combine?

Yes, it is unlikely when I come extending peace - with no ulterior motives - and get flamed and attacked to high hell as if I'm some reincarnation of Saddam. Not to mention that my initial thread, with my initial point, was closed by an Xkeeper clone.

Ailure, even you're skeptical of me. And I would have thought that you, of all people, would at least consider it for the sake and well-being of both of our communities.

Just remember, when all 3 of our communities are dead in a year, that I offered this.

So, let's see if I get this straight:

-XK is no longer admin (who wasn't perfect, but actually had the cajones to fucking uphold permabans, for chrissakes)
If that were true, Xkeeper would have permabanned himself.

Just stating fact here. Don't let that get in the way of a good dramatic story.

Xkeeper: Not my twisting, Craig's. You just shot down his whole point and validated mine. Thanks

a further note re: staff forums.
I sparked interest and there's a thread about lil' ol' me in there.

Hmmm I wonder whoooo started it?

I am honored. One of his 9 threads is about me! <3 I care more about what Ailure said than anything. I know Hiryuu responded, but I already know what he said.

Shenanigans? Did someone call shenanigans?
Get out your brooms!

Mmm, the ability to view private threads not meant for you. Such is the fun of all Acmlm Boards!

Let's see here:

I've gotten one for 83 in a 65, which was marked down to 75.
I've gotten one for 55 in a 35, which was marked down to 40.
I've gotten pulled over by my cousin when I was doing 83 in a 50. Gotta love family.
I recently got pulled over for 67 in a 45, cop marked it down to 55. Those are the only points still on my license.

Twice recently (as in within the last 2 months, the most recent one actually last night), I saw a cop ahead and slowed down, and he got the guy behind me. The first time, it was approaching a construction zone, I was in the left lane and saw "Right lane closed ahead" and a cop in the median so I slowed from about 75 to 60 (and I was only doing 75 because I saw a cop there the previous night, otherwise I'd have been doing 85). The guy who was behind me went to the other lane and passed me, and I saw the cop pull right out. He was probably doing 80 in a 55, construction zone (ouch). Then last night on the way home from work, I saw brake lights in front of me when the guy in front passed a spot I know cops hide in, so I eased off the gas. The guy behind me didn't, and he got pulled over. He was about 20 carlengths behind me, and closed to within 2 right as we went by the cop. He was probably doing 75 in a 55.

Edit: Oh, I should add: I usually drive between 70-80, depending on the speed limit (55 = 70, 65 = 80), and have driven past cops at that speed without having them pull me over.
The fastest I've ever driven was well over twice the limit in a 65. By a good 15MPH.

I80 does suck. It seems they're always working on at least 2 parts on it in any given state at any given time.

And I got a ticket for speeding on 80. It can kiss my ass.

Lack of capital letters. 10/10

Lack of real reason to apply. 10/10

Lack of supporters. 10/10

Overall rating (and thus suitability): 0/10
who are you? Why are you seemingly retarded?

Anyway, I'd go for Kwan over half of these other people I have never heard of before.

THERE'S A DIFFERENCE: ONE HAS SMARTER ADMINS
currently I'm tempted to agree that ||board has the smartest admins.


Uh, morons like Legion run around there.

So no.
I feel that all I need to do is quote your post, and doing that (and just that) will validate my point of ||board's superiority.

I just settled for this board, because it has less n00bs than ||board, and I don't trust Justus (yet).
I know you're talking about the rom hacking sections, because General Chat has almost 100% "olbies" on ||Board.

Wow, talk about a thread killer. No wonder there are only 100 posts per day on here. I used to have 100 posts per day alone.

So is everyone around here still all "LOL THIS HAS BEEN POSTED BEFORE U SUX GET OFF MY INTERWEBS"? Or is there some humor left in a crack somewhere?

Acmlm, Blades, even Xkeeper - Wherefore art thou? Interject some life, lest I die of ho-hum-dum.

Now that I'm at the end of the internets, I'm still looking for the answer to that age-old question:

What does Acmlm stand for?
Where's everyone? Did they get lost in the tubes somewhere?

Are you somehow comparing Xkeeper to Princess Toadstool / Peach?

My, Mario would be disappointed with that one.
