I think some of our admins are fine. I'll let you judge me, or else I'll say "OMG I RULZ".

If anybody, Jaiph or Sine should stay admin. They are both really good at what they do, in my opinion.

I agree that Jaiph is without a doubt the best admin there is. But Sine and I have had such big arguments, and I've been banned by him on seperate occasions for selfish reasons.

That latest thing was when someone said "FAP FAP FAP FAP" in the chat. I said "Isn't that against the rules, I was banned for saying fap a few months ago, and it was just a typo..actually I was permabanned from the chat until I sorted it out with other admins" The chat ops couldn't belive I was banned for typo-ing fap. Also my perma-ban for being annoying a few years ago. I know it seems stupid to drag on these things, but it urks me to no end that I was permabanned because of a persons hate for me. Maybe I should have been banned for a while, but not that huge perma-ban..

We NEED all new forum admins. This isn't just about me. I've noticed other people have had problems getting things done.

The reason that I was perma-banned according to Sine is that "I made massassi and unenjoyable place" Well, Ubuu over the past years has made massassi unenjoyable, Myself and about 10 other massassians signed a letter saying that we belived this, and we had evidence in threads to back it up. But Ubuu is a favorite among admins, so we got some bull crap excuse about "There isn't enough evidence and it's all too old blah blah" If I can get perma banned for being annoying, because a few admins don't like me, I don't see why Ubuu wasn't banned AT ALL. We had about 10 freaking signatures of people that agreed. But the admins play favorites and they make sure he doesn't get banned.

The bottom line is, we need new admins. ALL new admins. Half of us are getting the royal treatment while the other half of us are getting screwed. and all you people on the top half are going to tell me to stop my immature speeches, and rants about the admins, but thats just because you have nothing to worry about, you are liked.

I personally think we need new members.
A desperate disease requires a dangerous remedy.

A major source of objection to a free economy is precisely that it gives people what they want instead of what a particular group thinks they ought to want. Underlying most arguments against the free market is a lack of belief in freedom itself.

Only thing I want in a new forum system is post counts, out. Forum messaging, in.

Well, one thing I wouldn't mind seeing (in the next forum system or even this one) is a site discussion forum for member interaction with forum, chat and site staff.

You really don't want to start complaining about the admins. I tried it once (and I had an actual legitimate reason; I was right) and it ended with a couple of them totally and completely flipping out on me, and nothing was fixed.

I'd just drop it, Sajn. Yeah, a small amount of the admins are particularly vindictive/useless, but this line of argument can only end in tears.

This thread started with Brian trying to get severe with some staff...

Then the conversation turned into Furious Admin Bashers vs Cynical Staff and Posters Whom Do Not Care.... I hope it happens more often, its a fun read.

SAJN... I don't understand what you're talking about for a single moment when you rant about an underclass and a gold card membership class... doing creative things such as "taking notice of the forums" may cause disillusion within you as far as these matters go.

(On another note, if he is right, please give me the ability to edit Sebs posts.... just because... spe would be amused).

Apart from that.... I don't care what happens, I suggest you either do something or do nothing, toss a coin or something, its all good to me.

PS. Never consider me for admin, EVER EVER EVER.... if god wanted me to be responsible, he wouldn't have invented shunning.

I think you may have misinterpreted the outcome.

Unrelated note: why don't you guys leave and form your own community if you don't like your treatment here? It's not as if we're forcing you to take part in the discussion boards and chat .. you can still download files, etc, etc .. if the chat/forums are unpleasant for you, be smart and get out =P You have better things to do than sit here arguing with a bunch of preteens that think they're the center of the universe .. give yourself some credit.
