You never told anyone at WP the things you've heard here?

Nope.  I have been asked about this place and what the deal with it is, and my answer has been that it's just a less moderated AS site with few rules and a lot of former WP members, some of whom are mad at the place.  If that makes me a "reliable source of info on I2", than that says more about the WP mods than it does about me.

Fair enough. This no longer has drama potential anyway.

I know you have never been nominated.  At least your name has never been presented to Alex for approval.  The way it was put to me was that you were "more valuable in your current role".

 :orly:

I've got an email sitting in an outside account warning me to clean out my WP PM box of anything incriminating because Plank might be taking a look.  Since I don't kiss and tell, I'm not going to tell you the name on the email or when I got it; but does that process sound familiar to you?

Alex did read people's PMs on WP, so you definitely shouldn't have anything in your PMs you don't want him seeing.  It wasn't just moderator's or admin's PMs that he read, either.  He's there so seldom now that it seems strange to me that he would still take the time to read people's PMs now.

He doesn't read PMs sent to him by his mod staff, so I really doubt he is stalking Dox's PMs.  I know he is really, really interesting, but I just don't think he gives a shit.

I know.  There was also a time when he was engaged on his own site.

Was there ever a time he didn't wear those god awful yellow sneakers?

That was a long time ago.

Before my time, when I was blissfully unaware of both WP and autism in general.

Imagine if someone had told you then that you'll be moderating an autism site for someone named Plank. :P

Yeah, I got the outside warning from a mod who said they'd put my name in for consideration, so I should be aware he might do that.  If he wants to look through ancient history like nastygrams from Sins and QM and such, he can be my guest.  Nothing ever came of it anyway, so I don't know if he ever went rummaging in there or anything.

What Plank says he does, and actually does are 2 completely different things.

I don't think Alex likes me.
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.
