The most random thread ever!!!

No hugs, Rain?

  No hugs.  My general dislike of physical contact paired with several unfortunate occurrences have barred me from liking any sort of touch or display of affection. 

[Vilu Daskar]

What sort of unfortunate occurrences?

[Rainshadow]

What sort of unfortunate occurrences?

  The sort that I'd rather not go into detail about, as it still makes me uncomfortable to think about it.

  Changing the subject, my piano teacher now has a cat that meows very loudly whenever I'm there.  She likes walking into the living room (where the piano is) and meowing at the top of her lungs several times before sniffing me, my piano books, and then hopping onto the couch to watch me for a bit.  She's adorable.  :3

[Vilu Daskar]

Our cat has been meowing all day for some reason.

[Rainshadow]

  Our dog has been sleeping all day for some reason.  Oh wait, it's 'cause she's lazy.

I can report a Mod to a Mod.

[Rainshadow]

  Yes, report the mod to themselves. 

  Oh, that made me think of back when I played Lord of the Rings Online and my siblings and I made a kinship (a guild in most other games) called The Riders of Rohan.  We were allowed to appoint officers, which were sort of like mods in that they could invite people to the kinship, promote them, demote them, and kick them out.  (They couldn't promote people to officers, though; that was only for the leader of the kinship (my brother) and the heir (my brother's friend).)  So, we decided that we needed another officer for when we weren't online, so my brother appointed this guy who seemed like a really responsible person.  The next time we came online after he was appointed an officer, we discovered that the only people in the kinship were the officers, the leader, and the heir.  Everyone else (which was at least a hundred people) had been kicked out by the one officer, and he had left the kinship as soon as he'd done his dirty deed.

  So, yeah, we had to go find all of the people who had once been in the kinship (thankfully, my brother had made a masterpost of the members at one point, so we had that to go off of) and send them invites and apologies.  It was very tedious, and we were all mad at the one dude.

  Moral of the story:  Make sure you spend time with someone and get to know them better before promoting them to a position of power.

Wow.

Did you hunt down and slay the officer responsible?

[Vilu Daskar]

That's what my leader in a online game I play would do.

  I wish, but he just disappeared.  If I remember correctly, my brother did send him a very, VERY stern message afterwards, basically saying, "I'm very disappointed in you, because I thought I could trust you.  Know that you're not welcome in The Riders of Rohan ever again."
