The ILTJ! Resolution

[Ender]

November 22, 2008

To the Leadership, Clan, and Common-Wealth of x86:

As you may already know, Trolls & Co. has recently been egregiously denied an "I'd like to join!" board. We consider it no less than an infringement on our personal liberties. Indeed, while we may have representation in x86, it is not in proportion to our numbers. This injustice clearly nullifies any right that x86 may have to pass legislation that conflicts with our interests.

As a resolution to this dilemma, we have decided that we will nonetheless install a T&C "I'd like to join board!" (ITLJ!) The T&C ILTJ! board is henceforth incidental to the extant ILTJ! forum. That is, the extant ILTJ! forum will now serve a double purpose: the x86 recruitment forum, and the T&C recruitment forum. In short, we instruct all aspiring applicants to post your applications in ILTJ!

The moderators of ITLJ! have three options:
1) To delete the T&C applications from the forum, in which case we win, since they're being tyrants.
2) To trash the posts, in which case we also win, since the Trash Can was really our first choice for a recruitment forum.
3) To acquiesce, in which case we also win, as is self-evident.

So you see it's a win-win-win situation for Trolls & Co. Long live our glory.

On behalf of T&C,
Ender
Co-founder and Co-president of T&C
Parliamentary Representative from the Colony of Offtopia
Edmund Burke Professor of Trolling at the College of Offtopia

EDIT:

You know, I sort of like that idea. It means that myself (and the other leaders) can participate in the discussion while nobody else (including the person that originally posted) can. Sounds like a win to everybody involved

I can also participate in the thread by editing my OP. =)

1) To delete the T&C applications from the forum, in which case we win, since they're being tyrants.

I don't understand how you can consider that winning. You have an odd definition.

So, if the president does something I don't like, and I whine about it, does that mean I won? Nope.

2) To trash the posts, in which case we also win, since the Trash Can was really our first choice for a recruitment forum.

We definitely don't want to clutter the "I want to join" board with offtopic posts.

Feel free to respond to any of my points in this thread!
