Refugee thread!

[Shell B]

Yeah, we have hugs. The question is whether you really want to hug anyone here.

[Aliza]

Yup.  Thanks for that.  It makes it so much easier to take down names of deserters.

So that would make you a... deserter.

[outtathereligioncloset]

Yeah, we're pretty big huggers. I already want to hug some of you!

[DLJ]

Yup.  Thanks for that.  It makes it so much easier to take down names of deserters.

There is that.

I deserted TTA when the then management team were unresponsive, aloof and becoming ever so slightly authoritarian. This meant I missed the whole pedo fiasco.

(which shaped my opinion of what not to do when I had my arm twisted to become a mod)

Now, I'm more of a desserter.
(where's the crème brulee emoji when you need one?)

I visited here mainly to see what trouble might be coming our way over at TTA. Oh, and to insult people... no need to hold back when your not responsible for anything.

That's just a cover story for his actual nefarious activity of spying on the competition and stealing the cool emojis.

As long as we've veered this far from the thread topic (in true form), I'd like to add this emoji to the repertoire: It's the one brow raised in consternation. It looks like this :???: on other fora, when it is picked from the rogue's gallery of emojis.

HEY, WHO RAIDED ALL THE BEER FROM THE FRIDGE?!?

The Beer Bandit.

This meant I missed the whole pedo fiasco.

"Pedo fiasco?"  You mean you had priests on TTA?

[Shell B]

I'd like to hear more about the pedo fiasco. I hate myself like that.

[Silver]

Here I am thinking about feet, and you guys are just going right down the gutter.

[Aliza]

I'd like to hear more about the pedo fiasco. I hate myself like that.

Tartarus Sauce (also a defunct member here) told me all about it. Apparently out of a desire to promote "free speech" the TTA leadership was allowing pedophiles to openly talk about their views on pedophilia.

Free speech doesn't mean that people have to listen and I'm sure people on the forum didn't want to be a part of the pedo culture. The fiasco was brought to a conclusion with what was probably an epic ban-fest.
