OSUT 262: The King has Been Neutered....and Waylon too...

Weird. I see the civil war thread was locked after 2 mods say it was okay…

Should have been trashed, not just locked. I guess the rules must’ve changed since I was modding

My ex had a Tandy 1000. That was my first home PC experience. My first one (of my own) was a Gateway and it seemed fancy at the time.

We had a Commodore 128D

I wasn't "programming" anything. I used it to connect to IUPUI's mainframe for my classes. I did play one game on it, which came on a 5" floppy disc. Zork. I miss that game. I tried downloading a DOS emulator and playing it on my last computer, but never got it to work.

Ha! I remember that game

No rules were broken, even from way back. "Inciting or advocating" = broken rules. Discussing was never against the rules. I haven't gone back to see why it got locked though. Maybe someone overstepped?

It was cool! "Go North". "You are in a dark woods."

It looks like it left off where I left off in it. I didn't see anything lock-worthy.

It’s just against the rules. Anything about a civil war. Insurrection, or even succession

But it's not. I posted the rules, including Scutter's admonition in the thread. Cameramonkey basically said the same. Advocating it or encouraging it is against the rules. Discussing it is not.

And neither is talk of succession. I mean look at BigRed's posts and threads.

We went from a comador 64 to a Micron 3.11, I think that Micron made it to windows 98 to an hp

I had a compaq after the Micron dad had to a home built machine with parts from tigerdirect. After that was dell to lenovo.

But that's enough political discussion for the OSUT!

Just used to be easier to trash all threads about it than to try to babysit to make sure it didn’t divulge into something against the rules
