With the recent hardware failure we lost some our database among which were a few blogs… So to make up for the lost – time for some staff leak.

Here’s a small collection of snippets from some of our discussions lead in our super sekrit lair~

[14:50] <&Duki> Is it my fault that most ignored when I asked for your opinion?
[14:51] <@MTR> Of course not, Duki.
[14:51] <@MTR> !blame

[20:26] <Duki> been noticing you’re either dead or work lately
[20:26] <Nazo|Dead> haha
[20:27] <blubart> I’ll go into hiding for real … a week without net starting tomorrow
[20:27] <Nazo|Dead> I should
[20:27] <Nazo|Dead> just to see if kristen tries to hunt me down or something
[20:27] <Duki> oh shit the offers truly r gonna pile up now…
[20:28] <Nazo|Dead> why?
[20:28] <Nazo|Dead> other than it being the end of the season >_>
[20:28] <Duki> blubart is gone for a week…
[20:28] <Nazo|Dead> oh, so we’ll be back at like 30 offers? XD
[20:28] <Duki> have you noticed the big brother lately? [ TL notes ]

[20:29] <Nazo|Dead> no. because I know my slice is like non-existent
[20:29] <kureshii> heh, I’ll be gone until 19 April too
[20:29] <Duki> and I too will have to cut down a bit next week, but I’ll be around thoe…
[20:29] <Duki> Exams next Saturday 😥
[20:30] <kureshii> which is project submission + presentation + exam day >_>
[20:30] <Duki> lol we should put up a sign “CLOSED FOR THE WEEK”
[20:30] <Nazo|Dead> we should just do that now, as a late april fools >_>
[20:30] <blubart> that would have been a nice april fools joke
[20:30] <blubart> one that turns out true 😛
[20:31] <Nazo|Dead> haha

Considering that Jarudin and Malus too have been very busy lately, expect very diminished capacity in the following week.

[21:13] * Jarudin is now known as Jarudin-chan

After a long and tedious war, the chan army have slayed the world and converted Jarudin to our own.
YES! We have won!
Our armies are victorious! With so few casualties too.

We even have 21 chan army members active and willing to fight for truth, justice, and the 3 free lolis, the babybear and kristen doll and some cookies…

We are formidable and scary. And slightly pedophile, but that’s not the issue.

Since we claim total victory, the update of usernames IS going ahead. There is no denial of this now. We hope to get the site up and running again as soon as possible.

As per last time, Jaruchan managed to get back in time to stop us from taking control and force renaming everyone.

We, the Chanaholics have banded together and are attempting a second coup. We’ll have more information on this as it progresses.

Site down while we’re working.

<3 Leader of Chan.

As you’ve noticed, there’s been quite a bit of downtime today. We’re truly sorry about this but we’ll have the site back up and running shortly.

The truth of the matter is that the staff (namely myself) have had a falling out with Jarudin.
Over the past few months, I’ve been persuading staff to adopt the ‘chan’ suffix in their IRC usernames. In most, the staff have complied.
Xiochan, Maluchan, Dukichan, etc.
Jarudin however refuses to comply.

What he said:

Chiyachan, I refuse to change my name to Jaruchan. I like it how it is currently. I don’t see any real reason to rename it to please you.

–Jarudin–

It upsets me greatly, but I think that standardisation of names is important for a community this large, so this change which is taking place will solve many problems.

With the help of Dubkatz and Force, we’ve disabled the entire site while we edit the entire user database to add the word, “chan” to all usernames. Jarudin has also been demoted to mod status for lack of complying.

We are the Chan.
Prepare to be assimilated.
Resistance is futile.

In other words, we hope to be online again soon.
<3
Chiya.

For more information, contact me on IRC.

Update: Server is back up and running

Hey, hey – this happens to be my first blog – so not to beat around the bush too much let me cut right to the chase.

Staff decisions can be hard at times, and so here’s the latest leak on that super secret conversation of that decision process… Continue reading →

So just why are so many offers left in the ‘pending’ stage for ages? I’m sure this is a question that you guys have all thought about before. Well, the answer lies in IRC, and I will share it with you now.

[18:05:31] <%xiong_chiamiov> psst, southie, I found some interesting info on arveene
[18:05:37] <%Southrop> oh, go on
