I was going to say something similar earlier, but just didn't want to be bothered :)

if you want this thread to be seen on the top, then don't post a new suggestion! Seriously, your posts and ideas are just annoying. you don't seem to be able to learn from your ban.

Just whipped this up to illustrate for those who may have trouble understanding the post that started this. If you don't know the mod inside and out and how its parts work together, you're probably not someone who is posting anything but poor suggestions.

Incidentally, it seems that those with green names most often seem to fall into the green portion of your diagram. :P Oh coincidences.

That was in no way intentional. The last thing I wanted to do was send a message that posting suggestions gets you promoted to placenta.

Right. That is absolutely not the way it works.

The way it works is every one in a while when the whiskey fairy has visited the forums, the eldritch lord will point his tentacle of power in a random direction, and a new Flying Turtle (Limping Unichicken) will be born. In the morning, he is left with a new green minion, and monumental regret. So... just like regular shenenigans. ;)

So your best chance of getting promoted to Flying Turtle (Pastry Chef) is to donate enough money that FC can afford to get drunk, then hope for the best?

You mean for higher chances, we have to buy FC good beer?

Sounds like a furry thing to do -- we buy a well-known story teller good wine in order to get even better stories.

So, on that note: who wants to bet it takes until September for registration to open up again?

Just for the sheer appropriateness of it.

What? and miss out on sifting through all the trolls to find the select few that, if nurtured right, can grow to become valuable slaves err, I mean contributors to the forums.

Oh, and don't forget we will lose out on being able to claim 'growing community' on our tax returns.

I think a large problem with the suggestions a lot of people post, is that they know BTW spends a great deal of effort maintaining suspension of disbelief, and they see FC as a champion who will fix anything, however small that jars there sense of immersion. Perhaps one of the mods greatest strengths is its own weakness?

Thank you, Captain Obvious, for explaining to me what suspension of disbelief was. Up until this point I couldn't figure it out. Also, I definitely agree.
