Nepal Earthquake
The media isn't exactly all over this one like they were in Haiti or after the tsunami in Japan, so I imagine some people haven't heard. 7.8 magnitude quake overnight, a number of significant aftershocks since.

Subs for the Leagues
Well, it was inevitable given the dropout rate, but my list of subs is now devoid of active members. If you expressed interest in the Leagues signup thread and I haven't contacted you, let me know, since you'll get priority.

Spot is in League B2

Is it normal to abbreviate things?
I sometimes say "Time to TCB it" for taking care of business. Or "ED" for energy drinks. Back in the Blackberry days I would talk about "RIM". Am I a geek for talking about how I have a case of ED or how I desperately wanted a RIM job?

OK so let's say that the owner of the domain decides to pay himself money, whatchagonnado? If he controls the website, and the code is all open source, then you can't really do much.

He's like the Jewish leaders to the Jews who followed Jesus. They decide to clamp down on religious freedom within Israel you can't really do anything since they have the power, even if you have a huge following. They are going to win the fight for control of Judaism. Your followers will not even be able to call themselves Jews after the split without control of the temple even if they are the true followers of the religion.

I have never run any organization, nonprofit or otherwise so I don't know what would happen. My guess is if the site did get huge, the main guy would probably find some way of getting some money and some people around him would get something too. Likely as salaries. That is what I personally would do. But I have no experience so I don't know. I think it can be framed as reasonable. Most major nonprofits pay salaries so if I were the one in control I would find a couple people who were already in the organization who were OK with it, and just introduce it once there is a huge user base. It may alienate a few users, but not as many as say adding advertising but so many other organizations did that while retaining their users.

But I doubt this site will ever reach anywhere near, say, Wikipedia. That bombards people with banner ads with "donate" amounts after they view a few pages of the site, and currently pays hundreds of staff.

Probably the best way to make money is just to have this website spread the corporate and government propaganda. If you do that consistently you probably will get something. Mentioned in famous website articles, maybe mysterious donations. Volunteers coming from military IPs willing to do a lot of your website work for you.

I have recently seen on the forum a ton of people with X's beside their usernames. Some are for spamming, but some I click through and it says "multiple violations" or some BS like that. So maybe there is censorship here. I am still posting though, so apparently vigilance is rather low.

Excuse me, it's called "American". There is a British dialect though.
Marlen (20 DX)
24 Apr 15 UTC
Ah English, that is the exception that proved the rule. There was a separation between the people were originally in control of it, somewhere in the UK and America. Yet America now pretty much controls the language. Although even in that case you have some people hanging on to the idea that the language should be controlled by some people in the UK. For example that a billion should be defined as a million million rather than a thousand million. Poor souls.

E Six Sigma -- Crap or just a terribly organized scam?
I was curious about the scam that was posted recently, and, being inquisitive as to the kind of idiot that posts these things thinking they'll produce gullible clients by posting on forums for games composed of highly logical thinkers, I went to the website to learn more. I'm confused, though because I can't tell if it's just a crappy work program or a horribly organized scam.
