Hades-Knight 2004-07-16 05:54 PM

It snot each single one...is all of the fucking mods editing posts, moving threads, closing them for every little reason they see. Its not fun if you cant see some people disagree with one another and having a mod clsoe the thread because its harming zelarons harmony....

Slim 2004-07-16 06:01 PM

I'm sorry, did you forget that they're ENFORCING THE FUCKING RULES?! We have a police force to keep things in line, and in Zelaron that's what the mods do. You're pissed because they do their job? Moving threads that are misplaced, closing stupid, spammy threads, banning those worthy of it, and editing posts/closing threads that are just pointless bashing of another member is what they're supposed to do. If you don't want them to do that, what the fuck is the point of even HAVING a staff? Why not just declare mob rule and let the boards be destroyed, because that is EXACTLY what would happen.

Demosthenes 2004-07-16 06:07 PM

No, honestly Slim, the boards used to be more fun when everyone was just more laid back. It wasn't this bad. The forums used to have a lot more open discussion. The reason mods were around were to ban idiots like Pinoy, but they never really jumped on the spam like they do now. There was a time I was getting a 100+ posts a day almost. If I did that now, there would be severe reprecussions. Quite a bit of spam was tolerated back then, and even though it occasionally dragged the thread off-topic, it was more fun. Now all the mods are strictly about keeping order in a thread. If it goes slightly off-topic, or if they don't like it, it's closed and trashed.

And what do you know... No one cares

Grow some balls and compete on a even slightly fair level.

Grav and KA, Bob and just about everyone who does something even slightly against the rules, etc.....

Some people on Zelaron are pissing me off lately, no idea why.

You know, with all that has happened (the database damage, etc.) it's no wonder they've been a little irritible. Sov had a good reason, as stated throughout this thread. Just give it some time, they'll cool off a little bit (However, I haven't noticed anything different)

Thanatos 2004-07-16 09:24 PM

The database damage is the only thing that has happened; wtf are you talking about? I agree with MJ, old school Zelaron > new Zelaron.

People like UN #1, JohnnyTAE, WiccanMasta, StriderFury, NGM, Mr. Lee, Sirpullido made this forum great. Now, we've got some mad staffers that take out their anger on us. Bullshit. =\

D3V 2004-07-16 09:44 PM

But those Members are long gone. I remember alot more posting from K_A and Viciousmilitia. I made a 'Zelaron Election' thread in the Forum discussion, and uncapped made an 'Advisor' thread, we're just trying to get some ideas to help Zelaron move forward in a positive manner.

uncapped 2004-07-16 09:46 PM

First thing we need is for a Sup Mod to fucking clean this place up. It's looking ugly.

Thanatos 2004-07-16 09:46 PM

I commend you both; kudos.

HandOfHeaven 2004-07-16 09:47 PM

I hope this haze rises, it sucks to see so much unnecassary (sp) flaming all over, and no more fun threads. A tiny bit more spam should be allowed, and the staff might think of being a tiny bit more lenient.

Slim 2004-07-16 09:50 PM

This is depressing as FUCK. This place is full of so much god damn animosity. Everyone just pull your heads out of your asses for the good of this place.

SupressTheTruth 2004-07-16 10:08 PM

Ganga 2004-07-16 10:10 PM

I think we need more members... more intelligent members.....

Slim 2004-07-16 10:17 PM

That was Grav, but yes. We do need new, intelligent members.

D3V 2004-07-16 10:36 PM

I'm intellegent enough to post here, I just don't hardly show it.

Look, we need to quit with this pety bullshit, and fucking pool our ideas together. This is a goddamn waste of time, space and energy.

Slim 2004-07-16 10:39 PM

I'll agree with you there D3V. Oh, and maybe you should start showing this intelligence you claim you have. Right now Zel is going straight to the shitter and we need to fucking fix this. As of now it seems like the biggest problem is Sovereign.

HandOfHeaven 2004-07-16 10:40 PM

Then we need to stop nickel and diming each other, I am sick of it, as many of you should be also.

Ummm, What side are you on?

Sovereign 2004-07-16 11:30 PM

Everyone changes sides and ideals based on the situation at hand. Besides, even I admit I went overboard today.

Slim 2004-07-16 11:31 PM

KR was complaining about any mod using their powers to try to keep the forum from going to hell. I'm talking about trying to bring order back, if that means removing Soverign then I'm for it. I just want things to get back to the way they were.

RoboticSilence 2004-07-17 11:40 AM

Since when was there anything against obscenities?

Amen brother

Penny_Bags 2004-07-17 06:10 PM

I dunno, but I was told that obscenities were bad... Fuck that.

Slim 2004-07-17 06:13 PM

Fuck, cussing is bad now? What a fucking crock of bullshit. Piss off, you fucking fuckers! Better, Penny?

Penny_Bags 2004-07-17 06:31 PM

The anger was there, but "damn bullshit" didn't really flow.


I wish the title of this thread was still "Why is most of the Zelaron staff SO GOD DAMN FUCKING ANAL!?!?!??!?!?!?" It was pure badass... now it's a small percent of badass... diluted badass...

NonGayMan 2004-07-17 06:37 PM

Since when did Zelaron have rules? Lol.. :haha:

Ganga 2004-07-17 08:30 PM

When new not very bright memebers come here, we have rules now :(


lol, i remeber there wasn't rules anywhere, then bam it pop out of no where at flame forum. Later chat forum, later d2 forums.

Randuin 2004-07-17 09:03 PM

D2 is the gayest of all gays

Vollstrecker 2004-07-17 09:28 PM

Have you visited the D2 sections recently? If so, and you have an example of something I could do better, please inform me... -_-

-------------------------

Anyway, I seemed to have missed a good portion of what's been causing the recent uprising. Sovereign is a necessary Moderator on these boards, and anyone can have a bad day.

If it's been something scattered among a few days and whatnot, do point out what you think we're doing wrong. Obviously, members would have a better idea of when they're not enjoying themselves posting than a Staff member usually will.

It does seem that Sovereign has gone from one end of the spectrum to the other on this (from what I've seen so far). Just give him a break, since he's apologized and has already stated that he will try to do better.

I don't know about the rest of the Staff, but having the members making sure the Staff is not exerting undue force in enforcing rules is a good thing IMO, however, I don't feel that members haunting every step a Staff member takes is very productive. It also sets them on edge, and makes them irritable. This is quite possibly what has happened to Sovereign.

Lighten up a little.

D3V 2004-07-17 10:23 PM

Yeah it's over, good points Voll.

Raziel 2004-07-17 10:51 PM

Exactly what I would have said, Voll.

And I'm not sure where you people are getting this whole "obscenities are against the rules" garbage. I've posted two fairly obscene comments in the last 24 hours, and I have yet to see Chruser smite me with a bolt of administrative lightning.

Get out of my head, damnit!

Raziel 2004-07-17 10:57 PM

I demand that you get our of my head, vile interloper!

Vollstrecker 2004-07-17 10:59 PM

No, I will NOT go eloping in your head, thank you kindly. [/spam]

Is the topic resolved?

D3V 2004-07-17 11:17 PM

I think it might as well be closed?

Meh, I'll leave it be for the moment. Penny might have one or two things he'd like to add.

Vollstrecker 2004-07-17 11:19 PM

DAMNIT!

You did it again! >_<

D3V 2004-07-17 11:28 PM

Well he asked why grav was banned, and why the emotions are being displayed, yada yada, this should be moved to the Chat forum so I can spam. [/semi spam]

Randuin 2004-07-18 02:46 AM

Here's what you can do better, tell Chruser he can remove the fucking useless section.

Vollstrecker 2004-07-18 02:50 AM

You see, the funny thing is, is that the D2 section is what attracted a fair share of Staff and older members...

Not to mention 50%+ activity is in that section, and we keep it somewhat informative... I don't classify that as useless.

That, and even if I *did* tell Chruser to remove it, I doubt he would?
