Congratulations! They can take it easy for a while, but at some point you will need to have The Talk. I speak of course of Powersliding, which every child must learn to someday become a fully functioning adult.

Hi Gameological friends! It is I, Spacemonkey Mafia! I’m using my old io9 Kinja account instead of fussing around with rebuilding my old duck persona with a new account because I am too busy spending my days racing expensive sports cars against minor Saudi royalty and making my own cheeses.

That’s pretty rough stuff. Kinjamprove automatically opens the greys, so I and several other regulars won’t miss you. I’ll be interested to see what kind of volume we get at the new site.

All of the obsessed questions about chains is absurd to me.

I’m willing to accept that a giant army of the dead has tools. I don’t need to see every single tool get an origin story. People obsessing over the chains have become to pedantic for their own good.

Someone starred my comment and it got me out of pending. Not sure if it’s temporary or not, but have a star anyways.

I’m out of the grays and I’ve been starring everybody I see. I don’t know if it helps or not really.

Unfortunately, since you’re in the grays yourself it doesn’t do much. But it was well-intentioned!

Nope!

I had trouble connecting my Disqus account yesterday, so I’m trying again today. Hopefully I’m out of the greys by now. I sincerely hope that this Kinja stuff all gets better and soon.

Changing account passwords... Hah! What’s next? Automobiles?

Any update on when AV Club non-Disqus legacy accounts (such as mine) can be claimed? I wasn’t sure if this was going to be a “sometime in the next couple of days” thing or a “whenever we figure out how to do that” timeline.

This whole Kinja thing is going to give my career a big boost, for sure

I’m spending so little time at the AVClub that I’m actually accomplishing work. I’m afraid.

I’m sure you guys are overwhelmed with help requests right now, so I’m not fretting it. But I’ve been stuck in the greys and sent an email to the help desk nearly 24 hours ago, with no response.

What are you doing down in the greys, m? Did you hear about the Kinjamprove Chrome extension? It makes it way easier to read these long threads without clicking “show more comments” all the dang time, and it might help with your failed loading.

Mail Robot is EVERYTHING, Comrade.

Instead of yet another ‘nerd who knows nothing about sports publicly tries to learn about sports’ article, maybe you should try harder not to spoil Game of Thrones plots in headlines of the other articles you write??

HOW IN THE HELL are you supposed to use the comments if they don’t put the most recent comments at the top?!?!
