Hm, I like the left Cassandra more.... Same. And why would you even add earrings? That Gif creeps me out Oddly enough I'd say the right-side Cassandra if you stare long enough looks a bit like a guy with earrings and eye shadow.

I liked the dude , he made some effort in his trolling which I always appreciate.(well I hope it was trolling) I became a fan when I saw this gif. **snip** I wouldn't deny that the female-skulled Cassandra looks more feminine. Not particularly more pretty, mind you (maybe a little, but by a negligible margin). Thing is, she is a warrior in the game, the kind that can inflict pain on Iron Bull when told she hits like a girl. So it makes a kind of sense for her to be a little different than most other women. I mean, ... d'uh. (-.-) I never really got why it was / still is (for some?) such a big deal. I mean.. as well as being a warrior, the Pentaghasts were also dragon hunters.

just saying, I will not be missing Allan Schumacher, he banned me on accident for several months, had a personal grudge against me and several friends, and epitomized the "throw up your hands and ban it all" approach that characterized BSN at times

I did notice a slight difference in Allan's personality from when he first jointed till the end.

What I won't miss is the idea of the moderation team being put on a pedestal. BioWare employees and mods always felt on a different level to the community. Whereas here, the mods are part of the community. While this may present issues with and of itself, I feel that it will be an improvement, as I'd be more likely to trust mods to understand the contexts of conversations and allow banter to slide.

I wont miss the monkey gang aka "mod squad" that's for sure (I know, shocking). Good riddance for them, hopefully their time on BW came to an end for good and they're out of the industry never to return again in any way shape or form.

There were certain things that I was nearly sure I'd get bans for, and I honestly felt that a ban was just. Then there were other things that just felt like stupid arbitrary bullshit. Where I just said "What rule did I break there?" Then again, didn't he coin the term 'The Clique'?

I'm late to this party, and likely this has already been mentioned.
Personally, I won't miss arriving to find 16 newly posted, stupid ass troll threads, 14 of which have been posted by the same user. This hasn't been an issue yet, and I suspect it would be promptly addressed if it reared its ugly, trollish head.
From day one, the conversation here has been maintained on a refreshingly high quality and congenial level. We have our disagreements and occasional dust ups, and that's fine. What we don't have is rampant stupidity and trolling. It's mighty fine, I must say.

It's only been what, a month now? But the difference in moderation is huge. On BSN we were a class of rowdy school kids making too much noise, and every now and then a teacher would open the door and tell us to be quiet. Here the mods are a part of the conversation. When they first quoted me I thought I was being told off but no, they were just chatting like normal people . Then when they need to be proper adults they are So far it's great. So far...Until one of them makes a bid for ultimate power. Luring the rest to their lair for beer and pizza, and taking them out one by one so they can control the other's accounts and be omnipotent.

I will NOT miss having to bite my tongue when I wanna make funny jokes. A lot of my time in the ME3MP forum, besides trying to help and do useful stuff, was the fun, friendly banter. I like joking with friends. I like ribbing them. I like using sexual innuendos and double entendres. These are mature games so it's either adults or people you'd hope are emotionally mature enough to behave like adults playing them and, thus, posting about them. Sometimes that would be okay. And then sometimes, entirely random, I'd find posts deleted or thread warnings or people I was joking with getting warning points or temporary bans. And it would totally kill the mood. I'd shut up for a long time because it just wasn't fun. FUCK THAT. (That's what she said.) Wait, you like innuendos and double entendres??? Why am I just now finding out about this? Seriously though. ModSquad mood killers. COCK BLOCKED! It seemed any time my buddies and I would have fun the ModSquad would come in and hand out warning points.

If you'd ever spent more than a few minutes on the ol' ME3:MP forum - long enough to have encountered both Cyonan and Cassandra anyway - this shouldn't have come as even the teeeeeeeeeniest surprise tbh. There were people who witnessed at least some of what went down that were willing to "forgive and forget". Some of us tried warning people, and were treated like bullies instead. Thankfully, the implosion didn't take long.
