mods make up

k how many people think ALL the mods should kiss and make up????
yes
no

I think they should all get demoted, most of them anyway, LOL

Just found out another alias:

William/Theyre Here/Ereher Yeht/R Daneel Olivaw

This latest one, Daneel he was claiming to be a robot.

Hey...like any family or group, not everyone gets along...but ultimately conflict can actually provide something positive. Like a ragging fire in a forest will often promote new and more fertile growth.

The thing is to move on from it with lessons learnt.


Peace,

Well Connie, they at least admit to being more than one person.

Plus the only one that wasn't publicly known was R. Daneel. Though I had my suspicions.

Incidentally connie, you know Daneel is a character from an Asimov book dont you?

Kano, if you are saying that I have multiple aliases, you are wrong. I originally came to ATS as t2a, and after the board wend down around xmas last year I came back as Ycon, I have been using Ycon for almost 7 years. I am nobody else, not Brian, not Grant.

William, just revealed his latest alias in the chatroom tonight. Actually, net chicken figured it out.

Yes William mentioned the book tonight

The Caves of Steel

One of Asimov's earliest and best books. Humanity has gone underground, living in cramped quarters in huge cities under the earth. But humans who have gone to the stars and come back, called "Spacers" have developed a very different lifestyle, living in the open air with robot helpers. Humans still on Earth hate robots and hate spacers.

But when a prominent Spacer is murdered, R. Daneel Oliver the spacer's robot (who, to complicate things, looks exactly like the murdered Spacer), is paired up with a human detective Elijah Bailey. The story is ostensibly about solving the murder, but is really about exploring life in a regimented, overcrowded underground megacity, while at the same time exploring what robots are and how they behave.



It seems MM is not the only one who weaves a tangelled web on this board in order to catch an unsuspecting fly.

There appear to be a whole colony of spiders.

Hey, a psychohistorian crime solving robot that lives on the moon is no less realistic than a middle aged dole bludging messiah living in melbourne...

As the sayiing goes, "Even a well-oiled machine won't work unless the wheels grind together"...

Could anyone guess as to the real source of the problem we're having?

This has all been a pretty clear unintended little test in microcosm of a community's response to... what?

Can one of the "old timers" -- I'm talking "real" old timers, tell us about this rather vague but interesting piece of ATS history?

It would appear that there was a particular incident that happened during the early days of ATS that involved the MODS. It would appear that the MODS were running amok and were using ATS as their own individual playground. MODS using multiple identities? Robot MODS?

All I can say is that I'm thankful that we have such a disciplined, dedicated and "professional" group of people who do so much to keep this site functioning on a day-to-day basis.

Still it would be interesting to find out what was going on back then. Mining ATS history by going through old, long inactive threads, is proving to be quite interesting and, as this thread points out, entertaining as well.

hey so yes. id like to say sorry

hmmmmm, well just saying sorry


man that feels good...
