Stupidity appears to be on the rise. I don't mean the small "oops that was dumb" type stupid. I mean the terminal kind. The kind where you have to wonder how the person afflicted makes it through the day with their life in tact. The kind that tends to make me genuinely mean.

So where am I going with this? Not really anywhere. Stupidity is here to stay no matter what I say or do. Just consider this a heads up if you wonder why I start stomping you sans sarcasm as I'm less than tolerant with those cheating death.

That's the stupidity covered. And most of the ranting. Now for the random.

A prediction: V6 will arrive and it will be hated. It happens every time. People hate change even though the suggestions thread would seem to suggest they want it.

There will be bugs. Lots of bugs. Despite Bantam's intentions they will get through and you will be affected. You will complain. Reasonable? Yes. Will I be sympathetic that you can't spam the same emote mindlessly? No.

Basically if you have complaints keep them to yourself unless you're willing to be constructive.

Spammers will liek mudkips: My banning messages are set to return. They will be composed entirely in lolcat. There are two reasons for this. Firstly, plain English doesn't seem to be understood so I'm hoping something as mind-numbing as lolcat will be. Secondly there's only so many ways I can say that I've banned someone for spamming without repeating myself.

I will likely also maintain a list of victims of this lolcattery.

Read the freaking FAQ: Seriously its common sense for those lacking it themselves. Most times where I'm forced to intervene would be avoided if people just thought things through logically and applied said common sense.

The APBot is a fraud: If you get a message from the APBot from my account it is me. Unfortunately the bot can't be entirely disabled when sending rejections. If you get a message from the APBot and it says its from the APBot, it is not from me. I don't see the point of rejecting anonymously.

In simpler terms the APBot is like Santa Claus. He is a proxy for the delivery of "gifts" because some people don't want you to know that its from them. He is like cake. He is a lie.
