Tenebrae Invictus Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 So, a lot of the staff are going around and changing their names to declare their fears, or at least that's what I think. What some of these mean, I have no clue. But I applaud the staff for doing such, regardless.

WriterofReapers Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Most of the fears (from what I've seen) are completely random. My favorite so far, though, is Hazmat's.McSmeag, that's what worries me. Some of you guys haven't changed your names, which makes me think that there's something else to this mass name change... ◇ Lacertus ◇ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WriterofReapers Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Oh, so this was all a figment of our imaginations meant to teach us the value of facing our fears by showing us people we respect doing just that?Either that or McSmeag (the staff member who probably changes his name the most frequently) is making another attempt to take over the site through some elaborate plot. ◇ Lacertus ◇ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
