Shady Sands seemed like a swell fellow, I don't know why he would act like that. . .. Edit: and he wouldn't give a copy of the post if he edited it out.

I'm just curious on the math. Sorry if it has been mentioned 1st page to 9th page :D
I need ~24.5m from 12=>13 atm. Its harder than Level99 in D2, but I like it. :D
Seems he's matured a little bit. I feel compelled to ask if he goes threw the proper channels if he could be reinstated?
Toast just posted some of Shady Sands' old posts that got him temped (as _romantic). Basically at one point he poked fun at ggnore for having a lot of accounts but he had several of his own and Toast made fun of him for that. But Toast did it in a way that seemed to be borderline harassment (i.e. Archas told him to calm down). Toast wasn't actually pissed or anything though.

Also he maintains that he did not go ballistic.
to be honest if you have to pick apart ever bad post he made then you also need ot look at lightwip's posts since most of his bad posts would relate to him.

Huh, hadn't realised that connection but it makes a lot of sense. I remember there being some really terrible _romantic posts.
Let's say that you've devoted your life to setting up an enterprise for the big time, like elder Kwok did. Massed like the Persians at the Dardanelles are the waves of hot money, just itching to find a way into every single vaguely profitable, quarter-baked idea being pitched by someone isn't White and Protestant. (They call this "seeking hidden returns in emerging markets".) The investment bankers across the table from you know this; that's why, under their Hermes and fitted Armani, they're grinning like John Kerry's wife on Botox.
1997 hasn't happened yet, the mainland and the WTO haven't finished their little dance yet, so you're the only fucking game in town. Of course, the Nikkei's still hurting, but really, all that did was keep all the poor Japanese banks benched on the sidelines. And just in case the trust fund kiddies ever wised up and wondered all their money was going, they had even come up with a nice, sanitized name for you--"Asia ex-Japan". "Opportunity, ex-the-one-time-we-got-it-wrong," land of fucking hopes and dreams, the Wild Wild East.
But back to you. You're seasoned, you're a pro. You know dumb money when you see it, no matter what language it speaks. You'll take their money. Easy. Hands down, no problem. But there's one catch. With normal equity, they can buy control. Take over enough of your public shares, and you might end up having to kiss asses every single month in board meetings. That's intolerable. Not only is it annoying, but they'll have their hands on your company. Your baby. Your magnum opus, your raison d'etre. No fucking way.
You're just about to tell off the investment bankers at the other end of the table when one of them, a little cleverer than the rest, says the magic words. Class B. Create Class B shares with ten times the voting power of Class A shares, restrict the buying list to you and your children, and voila, you can get the best of both worlds. All that gweilo captial, going straight into your pocket, but you still get to have 85% of the voting power in your firm.
So you go ahead and sign on the dotted line. It's the first time you've signed your name in English. You phone your loyal secretary Anson, ask him if he can come up for a moment, and when he comes out, he becomes the first owner of a cool million Class B shares. You finish disbursing all the shares, leaving yourself a 51% stake... and then you die. Now it's an open question. Who wins? Your loyal devoted son, the faithless, feckless one, your ditzy daughter, or your third wife?
The heck?
But the aforementioned alt account was much worse.

Crazy plot twist is that the girl is a boy.
User was temp banned for this post.
Looking through this guys posts he's actually being a dick about Scarlett. In every post he makes about her he insults her.
