I arrived on the Final Fantasy Shrine forums today with the intention of informing my friends and companions of what I am currently smelling. However, it would appear that a communist has closed the thread (Thread 192141). What do you recommend as an appropriate course of action to pursue reparations, and where do you recommend I share my nasal experiences in the meantime?

Have you tried starting a new thread to ask for help?

Excellent idea. Do we have an FAQ forum which might teach me how to do that?

I tried looking for a FAQ section, but I can only find a QFA forum! :cryingbatman:

Damn communists.

Qualified Financial Adviser (QFA) is the gold-standard professional designation in financial advice for those working in Irish banking and financial services. Members who successfully complete the Professional Diploma in Financial Advice are invited to apply for the QFA designation.

This is all so hopeless... there's no chance of knowing what Shad's smelling now.

I refuse to share in an improper venue.

This is unnaceptable, this is where I draw the line. This kind of censorship and dictatorship in the Shrine is not okay. Why was that thread closed? Seriously what am I gonna do with my life now? JUST WHY? SERIOUSLY I'M SO PISSED OFF RIGHT NOW THIS IS NOT OKAY. STOP THIS FASCISM.

Ponyo - this is communism! Not fascism.

SAME THING.

The plot thickens... looks like Penguin dropped something:

SAME THING.

lol, in many ways, perhaps. But remember, it was a damn communist who closed the thread. :p

Where do you recommend I share my nasal experiences in the meantime?

The business end of a ball peen hammer?

The curved surface of a flying bowling pin?

The grille of a moving Mack truck?

Fascism is a sort of militant, authoritarian ultra-nationalism. Communism is a rather absurd utopian dream in theory, but is more colloquially ascribed to authoritarian governments which aligned themselves politically with the Soviet Union in the 20th century.

I meant "communist" in this colloquial sense.

I propose to start a Kickstarter campaign to raise the necessary funds to buy the forum outright and thus have complete control over what can be posted.
Once I've raised, I don't know, $250,000, I will use it for the task indicated and in no way for my own nefarious purposes.


BTW, I've trademarked the idea, so if anyone else tries starting a Kickstarter campaign, I will insist on a cut.

That's ridiculous... you'd have to pay me to contribute to something like that!

That'll be $20.00


I'll just add it to your tab.

Skeleton owes me quite a bit of money.

Not as much as you owe me.

I smell treachery afoot.

$60.00 treachery fee.

Will that be Visa or MasterCard?

I visit Final Fantasy Shrine often because I enjoy its color scheme.

Color scheme costs extra.

It's a little scheme of mine.

I see what you did there.

Observation fee $20.

NSFW?

You don't want to know how much it costs to have access to the adult stuff.

At least there I can collect some royalties.

You'd think so...


...but, no.

If I'd known that, I would have never agreed to horses.

I forgot the horses!
Which means I forgot to bill for the horses.


Which means I get to charge interest on the horses.

public service announcement: if you want to play Planescape: Torment sometime but haven't bought it from gog.com yet, do it now. It's only ten bucks and there's about to be an announcement for a PST: "enhanced edition" like they did with Baldur's Gate II. It'll look inferior to the HD mods the fan community has had for the original for years now but will permanently replace the original on Steam and GOG.
