Obviously subtlety is lost on you, Andrew. All you need is one person to notice and sound the alarm in order for all hell to break loose. XP
Oh oh oh if I do it can you be that one person? Because I want to see what happens as sooooon as I can. So I'll just PM you and say "Hey Jack, I just killed it so go to the DCC and start the snowball. Thanks"? Will that work? XD
If you girls wanna fight, do it the right way.
I'll give you all a handbag each, and you can all take it in turns to slap each other with them.
Hey you're back. XD
About time you got back on Dawson, I was wondering if anything happened to you. XD
I guess if Andy says jump, you're ready to say "How high?".
And you think all the Staff are brain dead and do whatever I say? Is that what you're trying to point out?
Part of the reason I find fault with PC's staff is its ability to hold onto a grudge. I served my time, both times, and yet you still just don't let issues go. My record doesn't need to be wiped clean obviously, but I equaled out my 'bad things' with bans that you determined equaled what I was being banned for. It was an exchange, except that you don't treat it that way. Not ONE of you mentioned the thread I posted last month, located
here.
Maybe its because if I said anything positive, it would make your anti-pokejungle bandwagon lose its wheels. And so not one of you paid attention to it. Smart move, if you're purposefully trying to find reasons to hate me. I'll give you credit where credit is due, the lengths this forum will go to keep bad memories alive is amazing.
Oh you should see Staff hold a grudge. Lets take me for example. I'm the meaning PC Staff member (I'm rude, mean, I tell n00bs off on simple things and so on).
Kimi, who said more then a few words about me on PC is on my MSN list and talks to me all the time. Kevin, went around posting porn on PC and got himself banned on PC, was on MSN this morning showing me vids of him playing KH2:FM+. Ty, JA, Blaze (who in the end went back to being on my blocked list, but only after given who knows how many chances). And the biggest grudge of them all, Abby. Yea you remember how that turned out, and now she's one of my best friends again. And that's just a few.
And you didn't learn anything from your bans. All you want to do now is say "Well my bans weren't right, I shouldn't have been banned for them" and so on. That's really taking the bans well.
And what, you want points for that thread? One thread wipes away all things? Yea sure.
And that is where you're wrong Paul. See, we don't have to find reasons to hate you. You come up with new reasons for us to hate you. Saying you hate my long posts, saying you demand to be a Co-owner in a group, saying you'll leave PC if the DCCs aren't fixed, saying your bans were unjustified (and pretty much saying your warnings were as well), criticizing the way we handle things on PC, saying we don't care for PC and so on.
pokejungle:
~ Has been banned
Also true, although it was not fair, nor fully justified
And that just goes to prove how little you know about things that goes on with the Staff. We don't ban just because we feel like it, or because we're in a banning mood. We have cause for bans.
~ Had his forum go anti-PC
No, look at mUnity for that. Owned by Geoff and Jake. MMC has never been anti-anything.
No, I'm sure it was MMC.
~ Got more then a few warnings
Pfft, who hasn't? Most members that are here for more than 2 years run into occasional problems.
But how many of them members has been banned? Not everyone that gets a warning or two ends up with a ban on their record.
~ Was involved in the anti-PC Wiki thing sometime ago
Completely false. Crystal Walrein said my name, but later retracted it. I was NEVER connected to that.
I'll go with Robo's post.
~ Has tried to undermine PC
Only when staff undermined it themselves by doing stupid things and wrecking the atmosphere.
Like? Lets point out some examples.
~ Threatens to leave when something doesn't go his way
The DCC return? That was a joke. Name another time?
Didn't look like a joke to me. So I'll stick with that.
Hmmm, had to respond to Andy's interesting-ness. I mean, with that attitude, I understand CW's point of view sooooo much better now.
Oh, CW. You mean that stuck up ex-Mod that thought he knew everything on PC and thought so and so should have done things differently only because he had a Mod/Member prospective about things? Said I should listen to n00bs, respect them, I should change my ways because he thinks he's the ruler of the world? That said he got paired to a Staff member so he could get Modded? That said we should have a smaller Staff only because ... forum over there has a smaller one? You mean that CW?
[/response]
Addition: After some thought, the fact that you'd add such a negative reply to me is really quite low for an Admin. I told you, in jest, that your long posts annoy me, and you make a list of negative things about me. Not only that, but you made a purely positive one about yourself, representing a very slanted and biased view, clearly shown only to degrade on my general image. You even used a completely incorrect fact, and misrepresented me. Neither the comment about your posts, nor the comment saying I was an older member than you, deserved that.
Oh it's quite low now is. You know what? I don't care. I'm not liked by many members, most if not all of the Purples, banned members, ex-Staff, and hell I might be on the "I don't like you list" of some of the Staff we have right now. Most of my friends that sees posts like that say I go overboard, look at Robo's post, he's one of my best friends yet he said it. So you saying "What you said to me is quite low" doesn't bug me one bit. Because I don't give a flip what you think about me.
My list was purely positive? Not purely, but mostly.
But it's all true. It just goes to show how we turned out so different on PC. You joined a few days before me, yet you've been banned before. Me joining a few days after, I'm a Staff member. No what went wrong? You also had that chance to get Modded, and promoted and so on. That list just shows a few things that has happened in your time and my time on PC.
Ok, how about this. Why don't you slap together a list of both you and me on the past 4 years. Listing both good and bad things?
And in fact, I was right in defending Nica in my opinion. Do I want to assimilate with the veterans of PC if they treat some newer members like crap? Two members ganged up on her, regardless of the opinions each one had. And you as staff did nothing about it and simply said that the truth always comes out on top. So, saying you act like a cynic Administrator that has no respect for this forum or its members is ok? Because, from where I'm standing, that's exactly how you come off as in your post(s). After all though, truth trumps all. Even if that truth is merely someone's opinion, in the aforementioned situation.
They didn't gang up on her, they just pointed out that post counts on PC isn't going to help her IRL. She isn't going to get a job IRL saying "Well I made ... number of posts on an online message board within ... number of months.". How hard is that to understand?
I did nothing because nothing was wrong. I will say this only once. Don't EVER tell me how to do my job as a Staff member. There is some truth behind that "purely positive" list of mine. I have been on the Staff almost 4 years. I damned well know the difference in things when it comes to the Staff.
Your immaturity is really disconcerting, not to mention you think you're acting as the 'mature' staff member in this situation. I know that when you cared about PC, you also took stands about things the other staff members did, and maybe your opinions weren't a majority. Was that undermining? I don't know, but by your definition, it appears so.
I'm not acting like the mature Staff member in all this. I am not the one that sticks by the Staff rules and goes by the book. I'm the one that gets out there and says things other Staff wouldn't dare say. I'm the one that gets out there and is on the rude side to members. I'm what you call the black sheep of the Staff.
You think I was undermining the Staff when I got into fights with Staff? The only time I got into big Staff fights was with a Purple. And I know I was on the right side when it came to them fights. I was on the side of the Modding Staff (who take care of PC, who keep everything in check), and on the side of PC in others. So until you know what you're talking about I suggest you stay away from that topic.
Maybe it PC would improve if the staff actually had a passion for their forum, and the members they're trying to serve. You're not in that position so you can enjoy it, you're put there because you accepted the responsibility of making The PokeCommunity a better place.
All I can say is wow.
I find you funny Paul, I really do....
What you think when it comes to the Staff is so messed up it's funny. And here's why. You think we don't care for PC? So we're just on the Staff for a fancy username color, a larger PM box, and able to see a few more forums? You think that's why we're on the Staff? You think we're here just so we can pick on the members? You think we're here just for kicks right? You don't know how stupid and ignorant you are Paul. Saying flat out stupid things like "
you accepted the responsibility of making The PokeCommunity a better place.", right now you can't believe how pissed I am. You think you're soooo smart, and think you know everything on PC. Well here's a news flash for you Paul, you're not as smart as you think. On the contrary, it's pretty damn stupid to think the Staff don't know why they are here. If I didn't care for PC, I wouldn't be bringing up and talking about new ideas for the forum, I wouldn't be Modding new members, I wouldn't be on PC at all. None of us would give a flip about PC if we all were here just for some fancy upgrade. And if you truly think we don't know why we're here on the Staff then you're stupid, flat out stupid (there's no other word to explain it with, it's stupidly at it's most simplest form).
We don't have to be told by someone like you that we're here to better the forum. That's really good coming from a banned member, that's really good coming from an anti-PC member, that's really good coming from a member that won't listen to the Staff. You giving the Staff advice, that's real rich. You can take your holier then thou attitude and shove it.
