Thumbs down The "Pen and Sword" Private Group


What is up with the private group "Pen and Sword"?

I don't mind this website having a little Gadianton-esque secret society. But didn't your mothers teach you that it's rude to talk about someone behind their back? I don't care if you're a friend of Lyodo's- If you want to discuss me, do so in a public forum where I can openly defend myself, without all the cloak and dagger, or don't do it at all. Alright?

If that's what this forum amounts to (secretly talking about us uninvitees), then that's pretty shameful.

I agree. Those bullies in the Pen and Sword forum can be brutal.

Except that El Jefe puts you on forced ignore there if you disagree with someone too often or too vociferously.

It's your website. Feel free to be as magnanimous or as sphincterific as you see fit.

Pen and Sword is a wonderful idea but it has nothing to do with talking about uninvitees. We're much too petty for that.

There is a 'secret' forum called Pen and Sword? What does one need to do to gain admittance? I am shocked and hurt I am not invited to participate in said forum.

Nice dodge. Cougarboard is crap, but CougarBlue is awesome. Doesn't answer the question though does it? Just because you have some power doesn't mean that you should abuse it.

If you WANT all the posters on this board who aren't a part of your private group to quit posting, just come out and say so. I'd be fine with that, if that's what you really want.
