Secret OB Mod Forum-Clarity

The Secret OB Mod Forum, codenamed Clarity, was a separate message board created by Clurr in September of 2006, inspired by a satirical conversation between the Mods and higher powers. It was promised to be kept a secret from every member who was not a regular Moderator.

The board was generally more successful than Clurr expected: sixteen of the nineteen moderators signed up and participated in the bizarre antics that occurred there. Each member was given complete Administrative powers, which led to locking threads, banning each other, changing information, renaming forums, and editing each other’s posts. The crimes committed there included spamming, one-word posts, and plotting to dominate the OB.

There are four different forums at Clarity: Secret Mod Lounge, Secret OB Domination HQ, Secret Yuri/Yaoi Forum (stemmed from an inside joke between staff members), and Secret Newbie Lounge. The activities in the threads ranged from conversations with the infamous kuja to reluctantly posted hentai to completely pointless, yet enjoyable, spamming.

Clarity managed to reach a total of 129 posts before it quickly declined. Though the existence of the Secret OB Mod Forum has been revealed, it will remain hidden somewhere in the Internet.
