We still can, because removing it would break things, due to Radium. But there's a Forums Cancer button right by ban and probate.

Have you or any other admin ever accidentally given someone forums cancer instead of banning/probating them?

Not that I'm aware of. When you hit the button it takes you to a second screen for selection your ban/probation time and entering the reason, so I think it would be hard to do.

Mr. Water was a fun saga. You guys remember that? A fella pretended to be a mentally challenged man and drew funny crayon drawings for the Culligan water delivery man and would leave them on the door step. They became slightly creepier each time, but still really fun and heartwarming. I think he figured Mr. Water was getting his water from a mermaid? It was fun times, even though the idea of impersonating a mentally challenged man makes me cringe 10 years later.

Im now reminded of Mr. Cardigan as well. He was not so heartwarming. Not at all.

I got a raise.
"What's the problem?", you're thinking. Well, it's a goddamn huge raise, for one; up three dollars an hour.
"Okay... So?"

I'm deaf, and on deaf disability. I can only work X amount of hours a week, or make Y amount take-home pay a month. I was already barely squeaking beneath the monthly limit at 8.55 an hour, working 16 hours a week.

"So just ask them not to give you the raise?"
It's been in effect since last week; it'll show up on my next paycheck. I only just found out about it today.
The disability people have been supposed to increase the limit for a while now, but even if they do I'm not sure if it'll be enough.

it was just a few people who did this horrible thing

it's like saying Mike Nelson is a goon (technically he is)

or that woman who made funny webcomics

or that guy who made awful videogames

all technically goons but it's not a good descriptor
