Dear Petty,

In my role as an Ambassador to Dark Planet, remember that invisible pragmatism and an open namby pamby approach (along with not mentioning every thought you have) are vitally important.

(((((If it comes to it, a violent attack and the taking of hostages may, one day, become necessary, that is, of course, if you're right about this and that our advertising-like diplomacy ultimately fails. It's not like Taz would do anything different. We'd only be playing by his "rules", said or unsaid, after all. In regard to that, I'd remind you, viking crews came from quite small villages!)))))

yours diplomatically,
Orwelll

Dear Eldo,

I'm worried about Pretty. She's been over at Dark Planet ruffling feathers, and just when my overtures were gaining some ground. She says over there that "the proof is in the pudding" and other inflammatory things - which I'm not sure even will fit within the Family Friendly Rules over there.

Here is the post I made in return, trying to ease matters.


----- What you say is quite true, Pretty, but surely a gentler approach might be better.

I'll show you something Wisey sent me, which I hope will ease your feelings.

ANATOMY OF A GOOD MAN

"He is a good Man,
Don't his followers all say so?
A Man of his word,
Break it? Hey! No!
If that Man is thought,
To be digging gold,
To return to it's owners,
From of old,
Then surely that is,
Exactly what he's at,
Sleep tight in surety,
Don't hiss like cats!

Quoted from: "Neville Chamberlain: Adventures in Friendship; Essays and Poems."

with the kind permission of
Wisey Banks
Chief Forumshire Channeller -----

I hope that prevents too much damage! Shocked

Dear Orwell, Pretty, and all others interested by this matter,

It is my own personal opinion that if we want Taz to give us our old threads back in any way - either by uploading them to PT or by giving us the data privately - we shouldn't harass him about it or make rude public comments. I say this in the interest of politeness and pragmatism, although I agree with others that it's very frustrating to have lost so much, and doubly so when Taz gave so many promises that nothing would be lost.

Furthermore, since in my own personal experience Taz has taken a long time to respond to some posts, I think it would be more productive to contact him - politely - by e-mail instead of posting in the forums. The moderators on PT are already aware of their grievances, and continuing to bug them about it won't change anything or make us any friends. Again, I offer this solely as my personal opinion, and I'm not going to tell anyone how to behave on another site.

Sincerely,

- Eldorion

Soon quiten her down, theres always a cosh and a bag over the head if all else fals, not be the frst time thats been resorted to just to get her out of somewhere before it explodes (usually because of her).

Yes, I think you should do something about that sister of yours, Petty - undoing all my good work and all. Civility is always better than giving out strong opinions. Very Happy (Sorry, Eldo, I am, at heart, a smartarse!)

POST I MADE ON DARK PLANET:

ALL IS WELL! ALL IS FORGIVEN!

............

ODE TO TAZ

"The quote you gave of Orwell's,
Was well chosen Taz my friend,
How appropriate to show no anger,
Only your desire to make amends,
I now think of you like Magdalene,
"The Fallen" with lifted soul,
And now we all must call you,
Taz The Wrought in Gold!"

"A verse of Eldorion, Mayor of Forumshire, which came to him in a dream he can't remember."
Channelled by Wisey Banks, and posted with his permission.

...........

Eucatastrophe? (Hope I spelled that right).

Apparently, you have all sorts of abilities and powers that you are not aware of, Eldo, and Wisey of all people would be the one to know these things. Don't underestimate the arcane art of Channelling, Eldo, that's my only advice. Very Happy
