Is the board war already over?

I am guessing yes. This was the worst board war that ever existed. Terribly boring.

Aside from nemesis and his thread over there, not a soul seems to have mentioned it over there. It seems to have been nothing but a bunch of folks over here getting all worked up because of Nemesis. not really a war at all. They (the majority of posters there) essentially ignored this place, just as they were already doing.

I don't think Nemesis is ready to call a truce yet. Nemesis just wrote:

I have kept silent all weekend to see where things went and give Shades time to think things over and perhaps come up with a good plan to change his board from a staging platform for attackings members of this board to a board that discusses issues. Instead he has used the time to deflect blame onto me making his boards assault on Juliann and this "Board War" my creation. I wish to remind him that all this drama has been created by posters of his board and himself promoting such behavior. Even in Liz's attempt at reconciliation we see how she places blame on us stating they will stop attacking us if we stop attacking them. We have never started nor would I let this board be used to attack them. I will give Liz a lot of credit at the attempt which has been drowned out by the minority once again. If she can continue to try to initiate change there I think it will be a huge benefit to the board and allow for some real reconciliation and perhaps healing will begin. However we will no longer sit quiet while Shade's board continues to be irresponsible and allows attacks on people that have no involvement with their board.

I will continue to hold Shades publicly accountable for any more attacks his board hosts on the posters or administration of this board and will continue documenting their antics. If he doesn't like that nor want be held personally accountable then he can make a very simple change that will improve his board and keep real people from being the targets of his participants. It is my hope they will initiate such change and that this will be my last post on the matter.

On a side note a few accusations have come up and I wish to clarify and they are as follows;

1. I Have not engaged in any attacks on any of the posters of that board. I have no reason to.
2. We do not ban 78% of posters here. Where they got their figures is beyond me, the actual percentage is 10% including spammers and bots.
3. All threads that have no activity over 30 days are automatically locked to prevent thread necromancy so the actual thread closures are in the 1k+.

was there a board war?

A small matter of this board being taken down .. you noticed that happening? Should we have ignored that?

Well, so I'm asking...what did MDD have to do with the shutdown over here? I thought it was some lone poster who complained to some authority about copyright laws? Am I wrong?

We've never had so many guests as since Nemesis started his/her board war.

Thanks, Nemesis!

MDD as an institution did not shut this board down (not so far as we know). But the shutdown was the occasion for lengthy gloating from MDD quarters and commentary on why this board is wicked and depraved. Pay them a visit and read what they said. It is still going on in Nemesis's solo locked thread which allows no-one to answer or comment from the other side.
