    Message to User:
    Greetings Hubris/Trepidation! I've got good news and bad news for you.

    First the bad news: You've been unjustly banned!

    Now the good news: You can have it reversed! Of course you can, and it is simple. You just have to complete an ex-admin challenge! What is an ex-admin challenge? Well, I'm going to give you three challenges. If you complete any one challenge, you are unbanned. Don't worry, two of them are extremely simple.

    • Challenge #1: Beg Viper to reverse the infraction. ~chatlogz~ must be posted before or after the unbanning - successful or not!

    • Challenge #2: One of your favorite things to argue about is capitalism, and how much better it is than socialism. Write a short paper regarding these two subjects. Go over the rise of capitalist theory, beginning with its first publications, and explain how it has changed over time. Who were the big movers and shakers? Where did capitalist theory come from? Similarly, do the same for socialism and socialist theory. How are the two related? What evidence is there that supports one theory over the other?

      This short paper must be a minimum of two pages (double spaced, 12pt Arial font) and a maximum of ten pages. Not only will it be shown publicly once you are done, but it must be deemed as "acceptable of a B in a university course" as judged by Yorda

    • Challenge #3: Write the definition for hubris onto your penis, and then take and submit those pictures. I know you can't post them here, but I'm fairly sure that if you were to post them on PL.com they would find their way here. This option involves the least effort, so it might be the best?


    Oh, isn't that all exciting? But wait, there's more!

    Any of these challenges may also be done by other posters/ex-posters. If that challenge is done by them, it is no longer available to you as a choice. If someone attempts to complete a challenge and fails (like they submit a really bad essay for challenge #2) they're put on read-only for a week. The one exception to this is the first challenge - this is the only challenge that a person can't eliminate for you. For obvious reasons, of course.

    If you do successfully complete a challenge, you'll get more than just the joy of being unbanned. You'll be granted 1,000 reputation, which will be deducted in chunks of 200 from any 5 posters who post in this thread.

    Have fun!

    (P.S. Ex-admin challenges will never be allowed to happen again, so you other admins and mods better not try to get any bright ideas because they're guaranteed to be retarded.)

    Oh snap, it's essay time.
    The idea that I have "free will" is the only irrational belief that I allow myself.

    If I am wrong, I had no choice in the matter.

    I'll be mad if he puts in actual effort and comes out with a reasonably well done paper and you give him an F. Likewise if someone makes something mediocre and you tell them it is fine.

    Don't ban Hubris. We need him to hold back the tide of aging hippie liberal douches that are trying to control the politics subforum.

    Vinata is subtly (okay not really) trying to improve his arguments.

    I'd suggest getting someone who can actually put forth a coherent argument without making his own side look like retards. Possibly an Alex Clomsaver.
