Sir, it is my great pleasure to inform you that the United States Army discontinued use of the telegraph sometime in the early 20th century - perhaps the general's staff is merely confused. And while I respect the general's rank, it apparently falls to me to describe the tribal, superstitious nature of the population of the region known as the "Well of Souls." Harsh, sometimes brutal punishment of taboo actions are necessary and preventative of further bloodshed. As commander on the ground, with significant experience in theater, my actions coincide with long-established tradition among those peoples of the Well of Souls, and are based on many years of hard-earned knowledge. The general is respectfully encouraged to mind his own business and leave these decisions to those with the experience to make them.

I'm not sure what's going on here, but I'm preparing an orbital strike.


It's the only way to be sure.

remember the rules kids.
rule number 1: we do not talk about when updates will happen.
rule number 2: we do NOT talk about when updates will happen.
rule number 3: failure to comprehend and comply with rules 1&2 will result in the general populace beating you to (simulated)death with various improvised implements.

With respect, Mr Miller, this is the way these (and the previous) forums have operated for a long, long time. It's tradition.

Mr. Miller, I remind you that even desk jockeys such as yourself answer to we civilian authorities. You will fulfill your duties under the mandated regulations, as have just been described to you by Discord, or you will be found in dereliction of said duties. Is that clear, Latrine Orderly Miller?

You have no authority over me. Get the hell out of my office while you can still do so alive.
