I didn't say the forums were pure chaos before I arrived (not only would that suggest they were never fun back then but it also implies I personally had some talismanic influence over everything...clearly not the case).

The bolded bit is an extremely curious statement to me. Care to explain it further?

If it means what I think you mean it to mean and what the words would have it mean (which is usually not the case with you) you are suggesting that I was suggesting that you're arrival de-chaosed the place? Obviously that is not what I intended to imply I thought you meant. I simply meant that you thought it seemed to calm down for other reasons (large quantities of creativity perhaps, as your post seemed to imply, which I can't get behind because I think we were far more creative before and not so much now (with the exception of Adywan).
