On the Absence of a Locke; And other stories.

Hey - and no, this isn't Locke, just a friend named Mark who helps him get things posted. Some of you may have noticed, some may have not, but Locke's been out for quite a while due to the effects of Hurricane Gustav on his hometown. Right now - according to his text messages - he's living without electricity and sporadic plumbing, as are most of his neighbors, and will probably continue to do so for the next week or so, living completely off canned foods and stealing showers at a gym, when it has power.

Now that that's over, he's wanted me to say a few things, just to help the site keep rolling. First, he wants to let people know he's alive and well, no worries about that, and that he's sorry he never quite got to finish those journals. Power went out sooner than expected, and the final hours of the storm were spent gathering ice and food and water.

Second, he's letting all administrators flex the ban-hammer in his absence, which he told me means that they can ban as they like, and if he needs to, he'll review it when the lights come back on.

Third: "Oh, tell Roxas and the other staff that if people apply, they need to approve/deny them fast as possible." And, if you're having trouble validating, PM the account, I'll text him, and we'll get cleared up.

Hurr, we are helpful links.

  • I literally spent the last few days of my vacation in Scotland waiting for news updates on the storm. I'm really glad to know he's okay.

Oh, wow. Good thing he's alright.
Thank you Mister Mark. c:
at night they'd go walking,
till the break of the day.
the morning's for sleeping
through the dark streets they go searching,
to see god in their own way.
save the night time for your weeping
your weeping.

Glad he's okay, hope he gets back soon =]
And thanks for the update mate.
Cheers.
One side of my eyes see tomorrow,
And the other one see yesterday
I hope I could sleep in the cradle of your love, again

Cry for me, somebody, with dry eyes

Alright, then. Since electricity AND Interwebs are finally back, Locke is back online as well. Thanks, Mark, for helping out with the website while I was playing with propane stoves and lamps and such.

On a final editing note, be looking out for some big changes coming soon in the entire way TUL is run, from roleplaying to the site layout and even a newly designed version of TULU.

Hurr, we are helpful links.
