So I have been keeping quiet about this but when I started running this instance I made the decision that if someone makes a really terrible joke I would NOT give in to the temptation to joke that they were banned for perpetrating a really, really awful pun, because that really just felt like something I don't want to give anyone here even the faintest moment of worrying that I actually want to discourage them, it's just not funny when it actually comes from the person who runs the instance

and

I have never been more tempted to break this personal rule than I was today.

@anthracite

Truthfully, I feel honored that I managed to bring you so close to the brink in just four lines of shitpost poetry! I thank you for your restraint, applaud you for the policy, and yet I cannot wholeheartedly apologize and will probably do it again.

1. How dare you for the original pun.
2. Good, re, bitings
3. Looking in on this completely by accident this evening has greatly improved my evening. Thank you.
4. Your pun license is still revoked.

@Goldkin @Doephin @anthracite

Honestly I feel more pride the more people tell me I've done something so awful. :D
