Well, they have it turned on again, sort of. I registered DarthSiklepart2 and got the following e-mail:

Awaiting Authorization
WELCOME TO EX ISLE, NEW APPLICANT!

If you haven't yet replied to your validation e-mail, please do so. You should receive a clickable weblink soon (Usually the same day, but hey, I gotta take a day or two off *some time*)

After you click the link, an administator will review the application. This is typically done in batches on a weekend. However, we are a volunteer-run board, and as I said, I may take a weekend of now and again. It's been a long hard cold winter! What's the point of having an exotic Isle, if I can't work on my tan?

If a second weekend passes, however, something's wrong Contact us at Admin at Exisle dot Net

While you're waiting, why not browse our exotic buffet of Guidelines, policies and other helpful info on the toolbar at the top of this page? There have been quite a few recent changes.

Thanks for your patience.

To browse Ex Isle as a guest, please logout above.
 
That was the email i got. Reply to it with no additional text, leave the quoted material.
It took them a few hours to get it through.
 
Translation: Registration is back on because we looked like shit for leaving it off for three months and that poopoo head CoyoteUgly kept drawing attention to it. We tried sending Shal to TK to ease things, but no one bought her lame-assed attempt at defusing the situation. We found this to be embarassing, so we turned it back on.

However, it's not really on, you see. This way, it appears to be on, but we'll only let in those we're absolutely convinced will mean us no harm. Since we have many Wiccans at EI, we will be employing them to gaze into their crystal balls, read tea leaves and goat entrails, and cast I-Ching stalks to determine who are good guys and who are bad guys.


The very fact that he said "I'll validate ya when I get around to it" should spell the story out to anyone who can read.

and what makes you think wiccans can do that kind of thing any more accurately than anyone else?

Because they have crystal balls, tea leaves, goat entrails, and I-Ching stalks...or at least they did back when Wicca meant something.

I never said they had or had not these items.

What I said was, what makes you think they are any better at using them than anyone else?

though i doubt the goat entrails. They go off after a while.

Remember where you are, read for comprehension, and perhaps...after some serious straining of the neural connections supported by the glial cells in your head, you'll get it.

Perhaps.
 
Well, the chicken I just sacrificed just fortold the end of the world in...
00 days, 07 hours, 36 minutes, 18 seconds

Damn fucking KFC "original Recipe", I KNEW I shoulda gotten X-tra Crispy.
 
Oh what a really classy joint they are running over there....;)

Why don't they just ask for 3 ID's, one being a picture and a thumb print to run a scan at the local police department.

No one will wait around for a second week ...lol....If they can't get into a board in a day or two they are off finding another place to post.

Oh and I just love while your waiting, read the 25 pages of guidelines we have to selected for you.....Pay special attention to the deluxe warning and suspension portion we offer all members. Your going to like what you see !!

bzzt, wrong answer. You said specifically

Since we have many Wiccans at EI, we will be employing them to gaze into their crystal balls, read tea leaves and goat entrails, and cast I-Ching stalks to determine who are good guys and who are bad guys.

Now, there is nothing there to 'comprehend' which explains why you think Wiccans would be better than anybody else at reading tea leaves, gazing into crystal balls or reading goat entrails or casting i-ching.

I want to know why you think Wiccans would be so much better than anyone else.

Nice red herring. BTW, both my white and gray tissue are doing fine, thank you.

Because Wiccans are just stupid enough to try crap like that.
 
thank you. That at least bears some semblance to an answer to the question asked.

See, that wasnt' so hard now, was it.
 
It's "on," but still off. Unless you want Orpheus or Rov or whomever "walking you through step-by-step."
