    Adorable Davelands got a reaction from Bran Astor in The Silence is deafening   
    *wipes the dripping sarcasm off his shirt* 
    There was a time when the only thing you had was the RMB and TGs. Then regions started using forums. Then they got into IRC and Skype. Now Discord has supplanted (only) IRC and Skype.
    If you don't accept and embrace new ways of doing things (especially when everyone else is using those tools) you risk being left behind in the dustbin of history.
    Better?

    Look at those cars! My horse is quiet and reliable.
    Airplanes! Bah. If man were meant to fly he would have wings.
    Television! Who needs another box in the house when I can listen to music and the news just fine on my radio.
    Computers! All I need is a pad of paper, a pencil, and a good mailman.
    Discord! Skype is fine on occasion but nothing important should be done outside of Telegrams, the RMB, and the Forums.

    I had told yuno I'd check WPAF masks when I got back from the desert, it seems that has been done.
     
     
    I've had a rather long travel day (up at 3am for a 5am flight, two time zones, blah blah blah)
     
    So I'll check more often,

    I have gone through and done some much needed reorganization to the Hall of Nations, including updating all maskings.  If you can't see something that you should or are not masked properly, please let me know!
