Interesting how some people (no specifics here, happens on every forum I've seen) keep complaining about how bad the forum they're on is, then comes back again and again to the very forum they're complaining about.
It's called missionary work. We come to a strange and savage place. We preach our Gospel. The cannibals eat a leg and send us packing. We whittle a new one from a mustard-seed tree, return and anew practice our exacting and holy vocation. You should feel honored, you should.

We did have octopus on the menu for a time. You missed that treat. Footnote for the Anabasis.

I haven't been on this forum for long, but in this short time, I've noticed that Xenophon is the most interesting character. So much gossip from me this time.

"Interesting" in the Chinese sense?

He has an often thankless, caustic role to play, with historical and cultural references that go over the heads of many. I certainly felt his absence during his ban.

I suspect if we were on a desert island we'd pass the time by plotting each others' demise, reminded a little of the relationship between France and Britain, the jeering and scorn relentless... but gods help the third party that tries to get between them.

Since this is a gossip thread:

I heard Wintruz and Xenophon were necking under the bleachers during lunch 😘

Hey, give me some credit. These are my first impressions. Who knows, maybe in time I'll realize you're interesting too... Wait until I discover your mojo.

Aww 😢 Xeno is my new fav poster here. I mean he's chatty, funny and gave me a warm welcome, i hope he comes back soon 🥰
Hmmm suspicious. Officer @Yazata will visit shortly to collect your details.

Are you sure you don’t have any Xenos hiding under the floorboards?

Yeah, i know it's not wise to defend a banned poster on an old school forum but the guy was nice to me and we had a "buddy" vibe going so i'd thought i was gonna do so anyway.

Collect away to your hearts' content 😸

Thanks for the unban.
I would like to respectfully voice my frustration with this whole situation. I found myself blindsided when I was banned on Friday for supposedly being Xenophon's alt (not sure how you came to that conclusion). That said, I do appreciate being unbanned and having the opportunity to sort this out. I look forward to continuing to participate here.

VPN flag just like everyone else. Xeno alt comment was just a comment based on some glazing activities I observed. You ban message was an automated one from the system (VPN related).
