Guest rocket power Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 Yes, I said hell. Anyways, this forum is all bullshit. I see members harrassing each other and getting away with it. And when a mere Newbie does it he simply is banned. What is wrong with advertising a site? What if the site was interesting, and held something needed by one or another? And the leadership here is utter insanity. James seems to be the worst of all... yes, you all know who I am. Interestingly enough, every so often I get an IM or so which speaks of Otaku. So I come here to check it out, just out of curiosity. Kuja is banned? Wasn't he a valued member? I guess you gave him too much power to handle. Couldn't you have just stripped him of modship, I mean, that would erase the problem. Maybe he's not banned, but I still cannot handle this. I hear you guys are degraded further from even when I parted. Wow, 2500 members. Do you really have to talk to every single one like a little baby? I appreciate chatting in an intelligent manner, whether it be with a small child or a full grown adult. But you know what, you can ban me; avoid this serious situation all together. Or you could actually discuss this with me. I am saying this out of pure boredom... Why waste a persons precious time here and then suddenly ban them for almost no reason? I could talk to James about this on AIM, but I figure its a better discussion for the public. I don't suppose the members here actually like having to think before they post something, just to check and see if that final word will ban them.

Kinetic Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 I admit, there are more rules here than some places, but that's because of the trash like this. I have gotten warnings, learned my lesson, moved on. BabyGirl can tell you that :devil: Anyway, please stop spamming us with complaints, just follow the rules, they're not very strict Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the old members get slack, but mostly I see hot-heads drumming around and beating drums. They aren't actually beating drums, but they are giving ban warnings. James, you simply cannot ban just because a respected member wants you to ban another member. It seems you have given me a command, I am not listening to you, but only James. You have said exactly what I described above, but only altered a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kinetic Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 Stupid huh? Well, I am actually one fo those old members, about 3 1/2 yrs (chibi-trunks) anyway, James is not like that. People like it here and you are disturbing that. If you want the board to be good, don't post topics like this, this is what makes any board bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Transtic Nerve Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 If you don't wish to come here, then DON'T! Jesus f-ing Christ it's not that hard. I'm tired of you babies whining about this and that. We aren't forcing anyone to stay here, and if they don't like it, they are free to leave. Whining like a child gets you no where and only makes you look like a fool. Kuja wasn't banned... he was de-modded as far as I know. He is free to return to the best of my knowledge. There are plenty of people here that accept the rules and abide by them... I am one of them. I'm sorry if rules preventing stupidity annoy you... but you annoy me and our rules are to keep people like you out. If you have a problem with the way we SUCESSFULLY run the boards, you can complain to someone who gives a rat's a$s... complaining gets you no where fast.

Justin Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 Fir those of you who are unfamiliar with him, thimoc is the guy who comes around every now and then to test our 'ban' button. As you all can well see, it's working quite nicely :) Have a nice day, thimoc. -Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Threads like this one indicate that I have a long way to go in improving the site's content. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "James, you simply cannot ban just because a respected member wants you to ban another member". I rarely ban people myself and when I do, I [i]never[/i] ban anyone because I'm told to do so. People are banned because of their own behaviors -- [i]not[/i] because people don't like them or hold a negative view of them. In any case, you really should talk to me on AIM if you are interested in discussing the boards. What you've said here is nothing but ill-informed tripe...and none of it bears any relevance to the reality of the boards. It seems to me that I have directly or indirectly stepped on your toes and thus, you feel it necessary to come here for the sole purpose of complaining. As has been said a million times before, if you don't like our site, [i]do not visit it[/i]. There are a million forums on the Internet and this is only one of them. When people sign up, we ask that they follow our rules if they wish to post here. It's as simple as that. I don't have the time or the interest to explain every single facet of our operations to someone who is probably not even interested in listening. Furthermore, I don't see why everyone has to take this so seriously. This is [i]just a web forum[/i], people! Why is it necessary to pretend that this is Government corruption or something? It's a foolish waste of everyone's time and it achieves nothing. If you're happy to be a part of a boards where every second post is more idiotic than the last, that's absolutely fine with me. If you enjoy it, go for it. But don't think you can come here and cause a problem. I value intelligent discussion as much as the next person, and that is what OtakuBoards has always advocated. But your post is a strange mix of intelligence and utter foolishness. You can't pretend to want intelligent discussion while at the same time, you rant and rave and provide nothing of any real value to anyone. I've said enough here...everyone is entitled to their opinion. And I'm not worried about saying "if you don't like it, don't visit", because at the end of the day, the more reasonable people want to post in a place where intelligence and common sense is valued and not frowned upon. And this very fact is proven every single day -- I don't need to say a word; the success of this site absolutely proves my point.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
