If you could morph into 5 animals which ones would you pick?
Like a lycanthrope, where I can change back and forth, or just a straight up "you have to be an animal forever, hurry up and choose"?
Back and forth, like Animorphs.

Don't pick a dolphin. They're stupid, that's why they live in igloos.
By Rooks 2015-10-14 15:41:26
I have no idea what those are.
/reads
Okay, easy enough.
1) Eagle
2) Cheetah
3) Dolphin
4) Housecat
5) Mecha-Hitler

I topic banned you for bringing politics into RT, which is a well known no-no. We have a whole section for that, and you've been around here long enough to know that.
A total newbie to the site would get a warning, but you know better, so pretending that it's an innocent mistake is just ridiculous.

The thread creator did not say it was a no no topic for random thoughts. Your not the thread creator. Did it ever occur to you or anyone that people can randomly think about politics? No I am not new your right about that. I can obviously follow a thread creators post of what he posted others can post about.
Do you or anyone else have a problem with that or the thread creators own original posts message?

The admin said it's a no-no, what's so hard to understand about that?

He didn't create the topic thread post of random thoughts Annie molly is what I am saying you understand that. I was asking if he understood that.

Rooks, do you know you aren't the OP of RT?

The P+R section is there explicitly to keep that stuff out of RT and Ni. It's the only reason that section exists.

I'm not... yet.

On a forum a moderator(and thus even more so an administrator) can lock or nuke threads deemed unworthy of existing, move them if they're in a wrong section, and also keep them on the rails when someone strays off.
On many boards the topics of politics and religion are either relegated to their own place or completely banned altogether because they are highly sensitive subjects. It's the case here too, there exist an entire subforum dedicated to them because they cause unhealthy discussions in the social sides.
I hope this clears your doubts.

Also, this really isn't the place for questioning moderator actions, send a PM.

The Apollo moon landing. Humanity striving outward, reaching an incredible goal with nothing but slide rules and 60's era technology.

Have you guys even read the Constitution of the United Forums of FFXIAH.com? Stop trying to circumvent the checks and balances with these executive decisions!
Edit: To get back to what really matters in this thread... Rooks, what is your favorite weird cheese?

What's one habit that, try as you may, you cannot break?

Rooks, what is your favorite weird cheese?
Define 'weird cheese'. I used to eat a lot of pub cheese+triscuits at my desk back when I worked in an actual office, but I'm not a big cheese guy in general.

Pop. I'm much better about it than I used to be, and I don't keep it in the house anymore, but I still indulge at restaurants now and then. I shouldn't, because that stuff is awful for you, and I know this.

Pretty much anything that isn't a run-of-the-mill cheese that you find everywhere (e.g. Swiss, cheddar). But if you're not a cheese guy, that question may not be answerable anyway.

President makes this spreadable brie thing that feels like sacrilege, but tastes pretty good. I never buy it myself, but the wife loves it, so I'll steal hers now and then. Does that count?

I shouldn't, because that stuff is awful for you, and I know this. I'm in the same boat. I won't drink it at work, in the heat. I can control my habit better than I used to.

Do you blow dry or air dry your hair and how do you get so much body?
By Rooks 2015-10-15 09:22:45

Air dry. I keep my hair short most of the time, so there isn't really much of a need beyond a towel and a little Tennessee heat.
The body is just good genes.

That'll do. Spreadable brie sounds pretty good, actually.

Do you like hummus?
By Rooks 2015-10-15 09:35:07
I'll eat it, but I don't go out of my way for it. It's basically just a vector to eat chips without feeling guilty.

I wasn't going to do one of these, but I've been hassled about it enough that I might as well get it over with. You may thank Jassik for being the straw that broke the camel's back.
No specific rules; we're all adults here, and I expect you to act like it.
With luck there will be one post and then this thread can die
