Indeed, never let "facts" or indeed anything like that get in the way of your opinion and the things you say!

The Most Pathetic Person

People using an instance that appears to try to act and communicate transparently and asks for donations from the community to run the platform, should actually be transparent in my opinion.

People can just go somewhere else, and no one is obligated to say or do anything, but users appear to value transparency, and I feel as a collective we should value open and honest discussion about issues like this rather than shutting it down or being confrontational or argumentative or rude about it.

It might be nothing, it might be something: either way, people are entitled to feel they deserve to be kept informed. Whether they are entitled to or not is a different kettle of fish.

That makes sense, hadn't even occurred to me!

I also wonder if only the creator of the thread should be able to cross post it? Not sure if there is a reason why it does not behave like this at the moment - sure there is!

Good to know, thanks - will keep an eye on the post date before commenting!

 

The halfling walked hesitantly and with great stealth along the cold stone hallway. Ahead, a soft light flickered from underneath an old wooden door.

Reaching the door, he tried the handle and the door creaked open. The halfling’s eyes looked around the room, moving like a bat’s eyes might if it was looking around a room. In contrast to the grey and dark hallway, the wood panelled room was lit by the warm light of torches and scented candles, and soft violin music drifted from an adjoining room. Who was playing the music, he wondered.

From the adjoining room, a voice. “Have you ever heard such a song?” the voice said in an unusual tone, soft, yet sharp like a bat’s tooth.

“There used to be a greying tower alone on the sea You became the light on the dark side of me -”

The door to the adjoining room opened and there was the Count. Behind him an antique chaise longue.

“I thought you slept in a coffin…?” the halfling said.

“Not when there are two of us,” said the count.

THE END

 

An amazing and beautiful masterpiece.
