New Moderator - Claverhouse

[shaytana]

Claverhouse is now a mod, as some of you have already seen.

Don't be too hard on him.

[Helios]

"All hail Caesar Claverhouse!"





we'll be nice, just let us eat the cute lil creatures we find running about.

[Shai Gar]

eat shaytana?

[Sam172]

Let us all hide..... now :p

God doesn't exist, monarchy sucks, and I absolutely love to torture cows (so fuckin enjoyable).

[cjs55 has been banned from the forums.]

{Of course, if I were ever to become a moderator, I would simply ban anyone who thought they had a soul. Silly rabbits.}

[Swift]

The Mod is dead. Long live the Mod! :thumbup:

[Avengardh]

Thank the gods.

[Clara]

Claverhouse, that's Terrific :thumbup:

( Of course you understand, you'll have to be even more careful of what you say now. Some, more suggestible than others, might... Hear and Obey :P )

[Claverhouse]

Many many thanks for all your kind comments and good wishes.

But don't think of me as some god-like entity far far superior to your petty concerns and minute intellects: it's not like that at all really ( or we can imagine it isn't: pretend-games are always fun ). Rather, think of file_cabinet as the Governor --- or Warden for Americans --- and myself as one of his approachable lesser underlings, a friend and guide with a truncheon.

There will be dark times ahead, times that call for the utmost sacrifice and willingness to go to the very edge; times in which some will be weak and others will fall. Yet I promise you that in return for your whole-hearted support and total fanatic loyalty, there will be always the prospect of final victory right around the corner, and even if the faint-hearts go totally insane and the weak crumble into tear-stained gibbering wrecks, it will be worth it because our cause is just; and one day, one day the world will be a better place for our striving.

After that speech, I imagine Claverhouse to look like this:

[Shai Gar]

i imagined something similar when he said there will be dark times ahead, but i pictured him more drunk sitting at a table insulting an ugly lady

[Claverhouse]

Shudders violently. I hate all the Spencer-Churchills; and particularly him.

Think more like this:

“Men are moved by two levers only: fear and self-interest.”

Dear Claver, since you have proved totally unable to exalt fear among us, as a moderator, you are now bound to serve our self-interest.

We'll be watching you…

just keep this in mind Claverhouse.

I bring loooove, because I am guilty of being sucked into the other thread.

Forgive me for I have not sinned enough.

Claver rocks, even though I did accuse the Scorpios of the world....he is an exception so far.

*enthusiastic rapping on desk*

Here, here!

[songbird36]

The appointment of Claverhouse as a mod was the best decision since the decision to temporarily ban Zedo and myself.

As a sane and moderate person he will bring a whole new dimension of reasonableness to this forum.

And he and I are brothers-in-blood to the extent that we share that elusive Jacobite connection.

[Vagabond]

I did accuse the Scorpios of the world....he is an exception so far. Don't let him fool you.:ph34r:

Claverhouse was the obvious best choice. What the fuck is wrong with everyone for not seeing this sooner?

I really don't see why he can't have admin privelages. He is much wiser and more responsible than the some of them.

Claverhouse was the obvious best choice. What the fuck is wrong with everyone for not seeing this sooner?
Hah. :)

Obvious, yes. But it was seen earlier. To his credit we had talked about it before and when Vaga stepped down there wasn't a debate.

The vision was there. Action, on the other hand...

Out of curiosity, how come you waited until Vagabond stepped down? I'm sure no one would have minded more mods.

Ya, too many chiefs and not enough indians, too many cooks spoil the soup etc. etc.
Claverhouse, are you sure you're not really 29 or 30? I just can't believe....How old are you REALLY?

[Shai Gar]

why not, he is obviously rich. if you were rich and had an INTP son wouldnt you lavish him with the finest education you could get? and the greatest library you could possibly afford?

i would, and i will. i hope my kid turns out like claverhouse.
and dont assume just because he is young he isnt bloody bright and wise, that is ageism

[J.L. des Alpins]

…from a harder man than le petit caporal... Dear Claver:

You replied to my post—a legitimate and insightful contribution to this forum—by quoting a grim man who was charged with high treason and “other high crimes against his establishment,” and a soulless animal who refused to recognize the legality of the court because of egomaniacalisms such as “a king cannot be tried by any superior jurisdiction on earth.”

You are obviously ill equipped to exercise licit censure and authority of any kind in this forum.

I urge you to acquaint yourself with the fundamentals of freedom of speech from eminent members like Shai Gar, deepsky, mgbradsh, booyalab, songbird, Zedo, and Utopmk (though the latter may unfortunately not be available for a while).

Concurrently, for your own benefit, you may want to invest in a few good Medieval England Monarchy History books, a topic you seem to be endeared with. Charles I is hardly a “harder man” than anyone at all. Described as shy and physically deformed, he had a speech defect that made his pronouncements painful for him and his audiences alike. It is most likely that the quote you are so generously crediting him with was in fact just the re-utterance of something he heard during pillow talk with his enlighten French and Roman Catholic wife, Henrietta Maria, sister of Louis XIII, King of France.

Well, we were thinking about more than one person and we were still discussing it, but when Vaga stepped down it became necessary to speed up our plans so we went ahead and modded Claver who we alll agreed on already.

Claverhouse, are you sure you're not really 29 or 30? I just can't believe....How old are you REALLY?
He has said quite a few times that he's 12. I don't find it difficult at all to believe that, he reminds me of myself in that age.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

[Dunearhp]

not in this nation.

What leads you to believe this place is a democracy?

Here we enter political theory. For the results of the victory of oligarchy, I should recommend you download the Poisonous Legacy video, from my recent Blumrich thread. (http://www.intpcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3422)

I disagree; a fox could control this lot. Just understanding is needed.

No, and it's not mediaeval: The quote is well-known, and from a letter to Strafford. Whom he sacrificed to avoid civil war. Which you are welcome to condemn as much as he did, but the reasons and pressures on any ruler are thankfully something no ordinary person is required to face.

CI, as Wingfield-Stratford once put it can be invested with the persona of any other English King according to taste: from the cruel maniac John I to the weak feeble Henry VI. It is the personality of the receptor that determines how they view him, and their individual susceptibility to propaganda. ( The French have had no great kings since Henri IV, although Charles X was pretty good, so you may be biased against greatness. ) More recently such historians as Kevin Sharpe have emphasised his extraordinary strength.

Bodily weaknesses, those you mention: shyness and stuttering are scarcely relevant to any consideration of power; and you might like to consider the equally strong mind of the Leper-King, Baldwin IV, who was crowned at 13, whilst afflicted, and died of the terrible disease, blind, deformed and incapable of sensation at 23, yet splendidly led the crusader-kingdoms against Saladin for nine years to the very last. However, Charles was of healthy body, after a sickly childhood: the brooding maniac Cromwell crept into the room after the decapitation and studied the corpse alone: "This was a strong body, promising long life." he worriedly fretted.

However I agree that appreciation of such a man as Charles the First is caviar to the general. Thank God.

***

over 30: opposite of rich ( except in kindliness and simple honesty which accounts for so much more ): and I wouldn't want to be a ruler, let alone a king.

And this is the last time: Scorpios are nice, good, stable, undevious and trusting people --- the fact I awoke at 5am last night, turned on the computer, joined the internet, went to intpcentral merely to change my password, shut down and went back to sleep has nothing to do with it.

I find it funny how half the membership of this board finds it fun to turn this into a forum politics and drama contest everytime they can get the chance.

That makes sense. Thanks. It just seemed like you were waiting for one to step down before another could be added. Kind of like Miss's balancing act suggestion.

You'd be surprised how INTPs can let go of grudges. I tend to just lose interest and move on. Now, I think a J could take it to the grave.

Claver voices his opinions with class and respect to the other member. I would much more quickly take him seriously, than i would some loser intp with an erection for petty power and a history of forum tyranny.


(and i have already excused myself of the right to be tooken seriously, so don't even bother)

True, but I don't think we should confuse forgiveness/apathy with having a short memory.

I think whether it is forgiveness, apathy or short coming of memory (all common in a forum of intp's), it can result in a resolution of hostility.

I would much more quickly take him seriously, than i would some loser intp with an erection for petty power and a history of forum tyranny.Dear Stem. Relax! Take a breather here and calm down.

First, even if one sees your defence of Claver as an honourable endeavour, Claver can handle a few tough words by himself…real well.

Second, what do you think a true INTP prefers: someone’s virtual nose in the ass or a debate? Anyway, whatever you think, I’m not the brown-noser type, so my praises for Claver have only one place to go: cybervoid. I just won’t take his mod promotion for granted; I remain skeptical, I want a debate. Of course, he is free to respond whatever way he wishes—or just plainly ignore me. Whatever I think or say won’t change a darn thing…and so it shouldn’t.

Third, Claver is a solid INTP with two feet firmly on the ground, he can handle a little rebuff. There is nothing personal; it is just for fun. If he disapproves of my discourse, I am fully confident that he’ll let me know.

Best regards,

JL

These identity conspiracys over the last few days have got to my head so much,... that in a potential fit of madness I'm half convinced :blink: that J.L. des Alpins, and Claver are the same person......

Perhaps i'm in a Danish mental asylum & this whole forum is a figment of my imagination :thelook:

Have no fear, little one. J. L. may be nicer and more polished, but I will never once defend a usurper.

Least of all the rotten Guelphic Windsors, even Buonaparte was preferable to them. Perhaps even Bushbaby.

The imaginary world in your self-appraised mentally challenged mind is, however, likely no more grotesque than one’s life under the monarchs of England. Isn’t it one of their own that once said:
