Mr Right? tongue.gif

Yeah, I guess. Things work out. Its just people on the internet feel no shame for their actions, you know? They just do things. And if it pisses others off, so what? No one here can be held accountable for their actions, so why voluntarily take that responsibility? Because that'd be too much work. Too oppressive. Too damn much. Ugh. The internet just pisses me off sometimes. I wish my friends were still here. Where is dck or jpt when you need them? Or Steve or Kim or Ali, or Matt or Dan? It just seems like each successive wave of members/staffers/administrators takes things really uptight, then really lax, then when they try to tighten up again, everyone bitches a fit, people get demoted, and the cycle starts over again.

News flash codex: your problems won't solve themselves by demoting people that aren't doing anything. More action, less talking about acting. It just sucks that the only people eager to attack policy and actual problems are the people most likely to fuck things up when they do them. The eager ones die quick in politics, and its the same with people in positions of authority here. We all get eager, then die out. There is no continued fervor from anyone.

Look, I'm not trying to bring the site down. I merely wanted to make the point that instead of concentrating on demoting people (which doesn't help you at all) perhaps you could concentrate on making your own site better, so that the likes of slopdog (which by its very name should be inferior) can't show us up.

tl;dr: stop fucking around.

Or stop promoting useless, sitting-on-the-fence, faceless staff. I mean seriously, who the fuck are some of these people?

I don't know the promotions of your time. To be honest we went on a promotion spree and I forgot all who was promoted when, just know who was promoted. And that's an interesting nickname tongue.gif


Fair enough, my point was made a bit useless anyways, I hadn't expected/realised Redlion had lost mod too, so what I thought was 3 of 4 standing from my promotion is just half now tongue.gif. I'm glad you liked it, I shall have to use it more often tongue.gif.

Wait, who's the mod that stepped down? Some how that seems like something I wouldn't miss, but I can't for the life of me remember blink.gif

Great conspiracy, but I've already said I didn't dislike all of the promotions. I said a select few I thought were pretty stupid promotions. People like Superman and Eeyore were good candidates in my eyes, but others which were demoted awhile ago I, and many others, already said multiple times are the wrong person for the job.


Awww, thank you. smile.gif

If you can't figure that out for yourself Lee why do you even care? It's obviously not a member you particularly notice tongue.gif.

Well given Lee has just asked who got demoted, he's already proven that he doesn't know everyone that was for himself hasn't he? I'm just pointing it out, anyway, anyone insecure enough to be bothered about a forum member not knowing them deserves to feel bad tongue.gif.

Yes, I know dear. But I want the whole crew back. One is a good start. But all twenty of the active Christmas members would really make my day. Or even your crowd, matt and Kim and Slothie. Those people didn't stir shit like the current little shits.

And Lee, I lost it as well as Superman. I can't be bothered to find out if anyone else did.

None of the other mods did, or if they did they really really needed lopping because if I can't even think of them they clearly were useless tongue.gif. So yeah, that's it.

Most Online In One Day Is 234 On June 15th, 2008

There isn't that much to deal with anyway...234 people online today but hardly any posts. unsure.gif

I noticed one of our competitors has been down for 5 days and came back a few hours ago and already has over 1700 posts...we're doing something wrong.

why do you think this is? they started a fresh slate, people are probably spamming for positions or because they are excited and energized about the site being back up. hype always dies lol

Lawl, I figured not. At least this year was entertaining. Kaylee Burnett wrote the worst speech I've ever heard. And everyone's hats were flying off. Most fun I've had in days. Well, not really... but still worth the effort to show up tongue.gif
