Ask The Staff 'Anything'

DrZoid · 06-23-2009

O.K. here's a question then.

Why are you letting childish people run these forums like a dictatorship?

Tsuyu gets involved in whinging about threads, petty arguments and constantly trying to control the topics brought up - Not the overall role for a mod.

My signature as well was removed without any sort of warning or explanation. When replaced it was was removed again and this time replaced with a little message from tsuyu in the sig.
Hmm. Very discretely handled.
And after PMing Tsuyu, he simply shrugged off the matter.

I'm sick to death of the way these forums are controlled. And there's no use trying to blame it on a select few annoying users and say that its just 'necessary' because forums are rarely moderated like this one is.

Its kind of sad since I liked popping back to these forums every now and then for the past few years but its starting to put me off for good.

Forums are dictatorships, with the Admin(s) ruling and Moderators being their enforcers. Nobody forces you to come to a forum and if you don't like it, you are free to leave.
Again, the irony of being called childish by a guy who thinks pedophilia is a laughing matter.
It is the overall role of a Moderator to get the rest of the members to behave. Obviously that gets me into arguments with the misbehaving members... like you.
As for your signature, I acted within the rules. The message I left there because you obviously didn't get the hint when I simply removed it.
I didn't "shrug it off". I said I couldn't be bothered to get into any more arguments with you on this stupid pedobear subject, and suggested you take any complaints up with my bosses, the Admins.
As I said before, nothing forces you to stay and you're more then welcome to GTFO, as they say.

G'day.

G'day.

You seem to have contradicted yourself. Unless I happen to know less about dictatorships than I thought.

Tsuyu · 06-23-2009

Apparently you do, yes. The only defining feature of a dictatorship is the rule of a single individual or group.

Like say........... the Democrats?

DrZoid · 06-23-2009

I believe I said you rule these forums like a dictatorship. So apparently you missed my point.

F*** this stupid forum anyway. & F*** You tsuyu.

I'm mainly just disappointed in Drakan or whomever it was who appointed such terrible mods to these forums.

"g'day" you mentally challenged folk

*signs off*

The only childish people ive seen here are some of the members, more so than ever as of late. Tsuyu like all the staff are sick to death of immature and childish members ruining these forums. We see arguments, spamming and flaming on a daily basis (something that was once a rarity here). So if some staff members have started to be blunt, and some might say a little stricter than usual its because we too are sick to death of things. We dont like being ban happy and strict but feel the need to lately with more and more problems occurring each day. We have simply decided to get rid of all the people who are constantly rule breaking and causing problems to get the forum back to what it was.

Our staff are perfectly fine thanks and do a good job of putting up with immature peoples **** everyday, just seems that members IQ's and attitudes have degraded to that of mentally challenged 5 year olds. Guess another matter for the cleanup crew is needed... *sigh* good day. Anyone else who doesnt want to be here please feel free to join him out the door to save us the job of banning you in the future for silly outburst like this...

Well...to some extent. But since we (or at least are given the illusion that we) elect our leaders, it isn't really a true dictatorship.

I don't know, Andy, I just don't know...

Perhaps the special ed. classes all around the world all came together and started lecturing on the Second World War, or something.

Shirosaki · 06-23-2009

Replace Russian Police with Project Ego Mods and Admins.

Back on topic.

@All Admins: What is the epitome of cool?

And there is the Supreme Court, to boot.

Hey, be nice to my mom. I'm sure her students wouldn't be that obnoxious. Plus, they're in elmentary school. And they're STILL not that obnoxious.

Also, question for the staff: Did I miss anything else important? Angel pregnant, but aside from that? There was a wave of obnoxious people before I left, so not that.

Some interesting gaming news, E3 and things like that i guess.

Shame about some of the immature things going on, on the forums because the community here is the best we have had on any forum yet. Shame to see some of the early members here taking such an attitude with us.

TRA Rotid · 06-23-2009

Wow, I`m gone for days and a lot has happened.

Anyway, how cool is that I`m going to see Transformers 2 tomorrow?
