Allow me to make one clarification...
Except for the fact that I warned about this in the Mod forums from a previous spat that while Shiyo takes it overboard, Katlan seems to have a penchant for winding shit up. Maybe it's to the point where I have to start throwing fists again. Or you know, bring back the dreaded hammer.katlan/eanae have done this for a lot of the side mmos we try to get bg to play with. If she's been causing issues and no one is catching them, report the posts. If you can't handle that, and would rather bitch at the team when someone finally brings our attention to what's been going on, don't cry a river over getting swept with it.
this is my question, but again this all happened when we were ramping for the donation drive, and now it's live. That and the rift/aion subforums are going to be looked into after the drive is over.
I, too, would not mind a sports forum, but sports threads are really healthy for GD so probably will never happen. as I said in my last posts, we make minimods for those running guilds, so that's a driving force to make subforums for those.
Eanae is the whiniest little bitch I've ever met in my entire life, 3 year olds whine less than that...thing.
Doesn't even fucking play the game and bitches and cries to mods, then acts like a little bitch stating he did cry and bitch to mods. Fuck that guy.
In GW2 he would whine and bitch about LITERALLY EVERYTHING, died in PVE? Bitched. Died in PVP? Bitched. He whined throughout an entire TA once because it was too difficult for him and he kept dying. His entire time PVPing was nothing but constant whining in gchat about how bad warriors are and how downed state shouldn't exist(I agree with this one).
Like, I don't mind bitching and complaining( I actually like when people complain usually, because there's some shit that NEEDS to be complained about, and I like to hear it from other people as well), but the way he does it is just a slow agonizing death.
I have no beef with Eanae. But according to the standards you laid out, Eanae shouldn't have minimod anyways. He stopped playing GW2, unless he's going to start back up now that shit's on notice. Leader has been firmly in Kiarax's hands. Even then, the guild has been a ghost town. One of the reasons I suggested maybe doing away with the subforum and rolling back the posts into MMO General.
Is what it is.
I'm an officer in the guild ranked higher than any other officer as well, OOOH SO SCARY
ksan, what if it was subforum, like politics/nsfw? or will that not keep traffic up etc
Shh... Adults are talking.
NSFW was created because people were hotlinking their porn. This ended up costing BG ad revenue after we were blacklisted due to spyware from some of these sites. The forum is not accessible to public and cannot be indexed by search engines (as long as they're following proper protocol)ksan, what if it was subforum, like politics/nsfw?
Politics was created because of how ugly that shit can get. I mean, look at Mazmaz.
These were offshoot because of extenuating circumstances, not because they warranted the traffic. Sports would easily get its own subforum based on traffic alone. But then that sort of knocks GD aside.
Nobody is crying over anything, I'm telling you (the mod team collectively) that the way you handled shit was fucking retarded. You guys seem to have this strange delusion that I care that I was banned or something. Maybe I should reiterate that I made that post knowing full well it was going to happen and don't give a shit. I'm not crying, I'm not whining, I'm not even complaining that it happened, get your shit straight. Nothing that went down in that forum was even worth reporting in the first place, that was the fucking problem in the first place. You have some crybaby moron who constantly tries to start shit (who is a fucking mod too, she shouldn't be acting that way in the first place) who then runs off to report posts the second she gets her shit slapped. Anyone who has read a single post of hers over the years would know she's a fucking idiot, why she was supposed to moderate anything in the first place is a fucking mystery, but that's irrelevant so whatever. But when you have such a glaringly obvious issue I have no clue why you haven't dealt with it. I get you're dealing with other shit like the raffle, but when every mod is in agreement that she's a problem you can take 5 minutes to look at the situation and see it too. I have no beef with Eanae either, he never did anything wrong regardless of if he played the game or not. As for me trying to bully you in to doing something... not even sure what you're referring to honestly, nor did I ever try to do such a thing. Sorry if it felt that way.
again, as I said, I don't know the whole of that, just assuming why they were made that way in the first place. and yes, if kirax/shiyo are in charge of the guild that does prove that it shouldn't necessarily be the standard, as they have behaved worse imo.
idk, I've actually approached them about it several times, but the answer is always a no.
Ragns is the only one that has access to the forum traffic breakdowns, so he's the ultimate decider on what gets made into subforums/which ones get cut.
It is also not just a click of a button to remove a forum either. Gotta move all the posts and tag them n' stuff. Which is why decisions to do so take awhile.
Reasons why I would never be a mod. Fuck the rules. I do what I want. I'd ban fuckers for no reason and never say shit.
"Demo, you're a mod now. With great power comes great..."
