I'm not going to link to it

Because I think doing so could have the undesirable effect of facilitating hostile attention on a community I like but I will say Artcomm is making me consider adding "everything is worse with doctrinaire polyamorists" to my list of tags. oh, except it's too long to be a tag. Bother. And so is " if you were more evolved you'd agree with me."

Well, say what you like about Tal (and most folk have, at some point or another), but he did have some social skills. Admittedly they weren't as stellar as they might have been; but you could hold an actual conversation with him, and he did make an effort to actually participate in the group beyond just posting the poly-superiority-wiv-fantasy-prehistoric-anthropology stuff that he liked so much. So there was that. Not that I miss him on a.p or anything, but one could at least hold an actual discussion with him now and then, unlike this current clown. *sigh*

I remember Tal as being...cheerfully, clue-resistantly invasive, on the social end.

But yes, there was something more than just "poly iz KEWL, mono droools!" there.
