PSA: Me

[=sw=warlord]

I'm going to be honest with you.
I've not had it in for you over some shitty bandwagon or meme, I don't particularly like those kinds of things.
I've had it in for you because of your ignorant hypocritical condescending attitude.

keys: red is to denote important notes
Blue is to denote said condescending notes

As a site moderator it's my job to keep petty debates like that out of threads. Once I made my opinion clear you should have just dropped it, pretty simple.

Notice that first part, many times you flogged that duty and a few times even began picking fights with the users.
That is dereliction of duty if I ever saw it.

Notice the second part? in that case you were assuming all people who use software from languages other than their native that they must be pirating or buying from illegal key sites.
I pointed out this was not the case and even mentioned that lingual language of software does not decide whether it is fit for purpose on a system, something I've since proven many times over.
For someone who is supposedly a computer enthusiast, you don't seem to know an awful lot about the systems you build.

Let's move onto the case with Minecraft.
You stated that Minecraft by itself is a genre,
A; that is simply bad logic, a genre is by definition, type, class, category.
B; Minecraft is a game based upon Infiniminer, A previous game which predates Minecraft by some portion of time which was developed by zachtronics Industries, Not Notch.

You also stated that apparently if a game looks like another existing game, smells like another existing games and plays like an existing game it must be a clone;

A; there are many, MANY games which use similar gameplay and themes, examples are Guitarhero and rockband for music, Call of duty and Battlefield are also on the same boat until you get to multiplayer but even then it only comes down to a select difference in weapons and whether the vehicles in use are continuously controlled by players or by the games system.

Let's talk about the hypocrisy I mentioned earlier shall we?

Let me make this very clear, I strongly believe as both a former moderator and former forum architect, founder and owner that unless you're willing to lead by example of yourself following the rules then you are not fit to lead others.
You have proven over a series of times you are willing to dish out punishments for infractions of the ToS but somehow believe you are above the rules you observe.
You have lashed out at users, insulted them, a couple of times threatened them and when your actions were mentioned to you, those members got an infraction for backseat driving meanwhile you would delete your posts to cover your tracks to go and get Scott free for another day.

I'm going to wind this down now seeing as I'm on borrowed time for my comment to be made.
I've made the points I wanted to, given examples to back them up and I hope if you ever consider moderating another website you'll learn what you did wrong here and improve your methods of staffing because quite franky, if you don't you'll have similar things happen else where.

Yep, that's pretty much it.

It has changed, and I was appointed to staff to keep up the serious side of it.

There's a reason I changed my primary usergroup, it's obvious that this site literally cannot be serious anymore. I'm not going to bother sifting through that shit, all it does is add unneeded stress into my life and get a bunch of people posting bullshit all over the forums in every forum they can think of that might be vaguely relevant (honestly I should ban you for that).

So I give up, I'll go donate my time to overclock.net or NCIX.

Best of luck in the future.

I don't know what this thread is about.

[Nero]

What.

Dude, just because a few dislike like you, doesn't mean you just pack and leave. Deal with it. You think this is the only place where people chose to not like others?

I've known you for awhile, and I honestly don't see the reason people have beef with you, but at the same time, I don't understand why you have to take the situation and turn it into a drama episode.

Let the haters hate, and life will continue on.

we as a site function best when left alone.

there is no direction for modacity to head in, we're a dieing site, deal with it and accept that the moderating that you do isn't needed, which is why almost none of the other staff go out of their way to do it.
by suppressing strong opinions, and quelling the dieing user base from posting anything even remotely offensive or opinionated your harming the only thing this site has going for it.

we're all friends here, lets talk to each other as friends and let the site handle itself.

No, when you idiots are left alone, your debate never ends until the thread is 100 pages long, locked, and half of the posters are permanently banned.

The only reason this drama happened is because your stupid opinions weren't deleted sooner.

(And what I mean by "stupid opinions" is not to infer that I disagree with your opinions...it's the whole "my opinion is right and therefore you are wrong" stupid shit.)

all reddit posts should be deleted, opinions should not be your real opinion, and swearing should be banned. please.
