I'm going back to my fun.
I've noticed that whenever anyone mentions mind control, a their post appears to be edited to the effect that there is no such thing.
While obviously there is no mind control and I will go back to my fun, I'm really curious as to whether this is:
1. Mods messing about while reading the forums.
2. A joke that has spread enough people create the effects for themselves.
3. A find-and-replace script.

All that I say applies only to myself. You author your own actions and choices. I cannot and will not be responsible for you, nor are you for me, regardless of situation or circumstance.

The Friend Computer is your friend. The Friend Computer wants you to be happy. Happiness is mandatory. Citizens that are not happy should report for immediate termination. Have a fine day-cycle.

If you need me for something, please PM me about it. I am having difficulty keeping track of all my obligations.

Re: I'm going back to my fun.
Imagine if the mods just went around randomly changing people's posts.
What a bunch hate-filled, awThere is no mind control, citizen. Go back to your funsometastic , beautiful people who I love and respect.
Seriously, they don't do that. Though if they invite you to come see the shredder, run. Just run. We've lost too many good posters to this bloodthirsty ruse.Last edited by Kobold-Bard; 2010-05-07 at 12:21 PM.

Re: I'm going back to my fun.
The "There is no mind control, citizen. Go back to your fun." meme got started by Roland posting it as part of an official mod-reply to a thread. Because there is no mind control, and we should return to our fun.
This meme is a good deal more tolerated than the fake-{Scrubbed} meme... possibly because Roland finds it amusing.

Re: I'm going back to my fun.
"There is no mind control" is analogous to the Candlejack meme.
i.e., it's unfunny, childish, and only posted by I will go back to my fun, there is no mind cYotsubatar by Dr. Bath

Re: I'm going back to my fun.
I think he got his answer and he probably went to go back to his fun.
...sorry, couldn't resist.
Candlejack meme? I've never heard of a Candleja
Phew, this is a lot harder now that my 'candlejack' thing got to meme status.

Re: I'm going back to my fun.
It's sort of like those fruits that monkeys stereotypically eat, but we don't talk about them here.
The name is "tonberrian", even when it begins a sentence. It's magic, I ain't gotta 'splain why.

Re: I'm going back to my fun.
Ah, so it is similar to the prohibition on discussing long, yellow berries.
If I were Rawhide I would have linked to the relevant discussion which got closed with, among other things, a prohibition on the discussion of Bananas. I think it was in a thread that was trying to discuss the banned, only the OP had misspelled Banned as "Banana."
Some days I think the mods are all having way too much fun policing the playground. Then I notice how much spam they clean up and realize it isn't all fun and games.

Re: I'm going back to my fun.
The question is, whose mind control is more powerful: Roland's or Harbinger from Mass EffeI AM ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL

...As Rawhide figures out some code to replace all the "Last Edited By -USER-" thing to "Last Edited By Roland St. Jude" just to mess with everyone.

Sheriff of Moddingham: I heard you like moderation in your moderation, so I put mind control denial in your mind control denial thread so you can go back to your fun while you're going back to your fun.
