I've created a new internet rule (in line with Godwin's Law and other such things) that covers all topics:
For all things related, even slightly, to MWO, if a problem is encountered, we can always, and must always blame Paul Inouye. Every issue encountered is Paul's fault, even if it isn't.

It's a great rule because it simplifies every discussion to the same topic: How much we hate Paul.

And isn't hating Paul really what this whole forum, nay, the entire internet, about?

I don't hate paul. I just look for opportunities to take playful jabs at him and his alter ego Inouye Man.

See, that's part of my law also.

You hate Paul even if you don't. In fact, you hate Paul even if you don't know him.

In fact, you hate Paul even if you don't exist in this world to hate him.

Your rule has been part of my signature for a few months now.
I agree and approve.

Although now that Paul is head bathroom attendant he might not have time to post on the forums anymore . I guess as the new Design Lead we could start hating Garth too?



Cheers.

Do I have to remind you people? Let me put this in laymen's terms (also known as 'Inoueye lingo')

Garth good. Paul bad.
Garth SUPPORTS the community. Paul TROLLS the community.
Garth promotes solidarity and brotherhood. Paul promotes solid bowel movements and morning wood.

...not...sure...how that last line got in there, but dem's da facts.

However, the question is if Paul is a necessary evil? After all, who would we poke fun at while waiting for this game to release? Indeed we may need Inouye Man more than any of us would ever admit.

Dark , deep , disturbing thoughts .

Best to just drink heavily and not dwell on it. If you ignore that line of thought maybe it will just go away.

And if it doesn't , drink more.

He's the hero Gotham the MWO forums deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him. Because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A dark knight troll.

It might be a Freudian Slip, but I actually read this as "However, the question is, 'Is Paul necessary at all?'"

And you know, that's a slip worth having answered. I'm gonna have a talk with Russ to see if we can resolve this to my satisfaction.

Think I diverted this topic long enough. It's now 10:27 pm as of this posting, or this particular sentence, on the east coast. Assuming the devs are in the west coast then its only 7:00 pm at the devs office. Meaning if they work the normal 9:00 to 5:00 shifts they went home. Last I checked programming has no steady work hours, so I'm guessing Paul ties Garth up, and tossed him into the janitors closet.
