Most of you know me already. Most of you have a good idea of my personality and views. However, I want to say a few things to clarify some issues rather than dance around them.

You all know I am a racist. However, this being a PC forum I will be handbound from saying anything racist... Though the rules say nothing - and I have looked - about admitting you are one. There are rules against posting anything hateful, and we all know what that means. I will follow this mandate to the best of my ability, I will even agree with things I do not agree with in the truth of my heart and mind in order to follow this rule. I understand the need, at times, to actually restrict free speech, therefore I will so restrict. At times where one point of view is given sole access to the light of day, and thus also immunity from rebuttal, of course it will dominate, and for the sake of harmony, this is good.

I sometimes like to think of myself as a female version of Gaius. And just as he would, I would like to be the one making the rules. However, I wouldn't be a true Authoritarian - but a hypocrite - if I couldn't also follow them if need be. Therefore, this is my mission statement: I shall follow the rules at all times to the best of my ability, even if it is difficult or distasteful. I believe that at least to some degree, smooth and harmonious functionality, not freedom, is the most valuable commodity. This is what I believe, and this is what I shall follow. Until the rules serve the purpose of leading the forum to ruin, the rules are sacrosanct.

All hail the Dictator Perpetuo!
