I wouldn’t expect anything less from a rep overlord like yourself.

He is one of The Powers That Be. You shouldn't expect to know who he is; they keep their identities quite secret.

But Hobo told me to send a PM to Peter. So, who must I send the PM to?

The Oddworld Forum founder is Syndey. It's all very controversial and confusing for anyone who wasn't there at the time (like me) but you can read the full story in the two links in Post 28 of 'The Classics' topic in OT Discussion.

And to answer your other question. You just simply can't have two founders but if you discount Sydney then the title would almost certainly go to Abe babe.

Forgive me, I wasn't absent minded and I forgot what's the Italian for "founder". Now (thanks to you) I remember it. Excuse me if I asked it.

I was in the library when I read this, and I laughed so hard I had to go to the toilet. Not original, but true.

It's possible that a small amount of surgery and hormone treatment could turn Abe Is Now into a new Sydney. Would that be good enough?

I can see it now: A lonely, out-of-the-way castle on a dark hill. Inside, Nate the Mad Doctor is standing over a table that has a sheet covering a human-like form on it. Max is in the background, doubled over due to a hunchback. Both are laughing maniacly, Nate screaming "IT'S ALIVE! IT'S ALIVE!" as AIN begins to twitch underneath the sheet, reborn as a new Sydney. Lightning flashes and thunder booms.

I shudder to think of AIN as being the new Sydney. What do you think his first acts would be? Unoriginal things, such as banning OANST and Hobo? Or forcing everyone to take everything at face value?

Thank you for understanding me... let's translate all the Italian books now! Italian is harder than English, do you know? If I misunderstood a word, I don't think you can humiliate me in this way.

We understand you can’t translate everything perfectly all the time. Doesn’t mean we can’t laugh at things that are funny.

Actually, that was more of a joke at Sydney's expense than yours and certainly had nothing to do with your english skills. I only mentioned you because you had asked about founders.

What you've got wrong here is that you use "Founder" instead of "Owner".

Founder means someone who started something. Sydney was the one who created OWF. Meaning... You'd have to become Sydney to become OWF's Founder.

If you wanna become OWF's owner, you'll have to suck up to the admins, get on their good sides, become admin yourself, get Alcar to trust you enough to gain access to the server the forums are being hosted on, then strip Alcar and Abe babe from their mod position and start another forum split up

Or you could stalk Alcar, "Get rid" of him... and Steal his Identity! Bwahaha! But you'll have to come up with a great excuse for suddenly not being able to use perfect grammar skills.

No, now you haven't understood me. I know what's a Founder. I misunderstood Founder and Seeker when I asked my question. I don't know why.

This is a very big confusion! The point is: I asked what's a Founder and who is OWF's. Then I asked why there are no one. And the answer is: Sydney is the Founder but she isn't logging in. That's all.

In the context may I propose that taking into account AIN's skill (or lack of) in the English tongue he means keeper instead of seeker.

That was not meant to be derogatory AIN, I couldn't do half as well as you do on an Italian forum.

Lucky me.

That was not meant to be derogatory AIN, I couldn't do half as well as you do on an Italian forum.
You make a good point, Wings. Looking back at AIN's stuff and realizing english is not his first language, he's doing extremely well with the english language. Hell, the only other words in another language are

"Dos cervasos, por favor" , "Gracias" , "Hasta Luego" , "Tu hablar ingles?" , "No hablar espanol" , "Donde esta el bano?" , "Hola!" , and 1-10 in spanish.

If it gets deeper than that, I'm doomed.
