Title: I know WHY it\'s so dead in here.
Post by: Black Samurai on October 03, 2001, 06:25:08 AM

Actually, its dead in here because there is nothing to talk about. SHOCKING!!!

Its one of those periods in between really good game releases where there is nothing to talk about. Its no big conspiracy involving the mods.

What are you two freaks talking about? I come here every day and there\'s always a crapload of new posts all over the place. This place is anything but dead!

I know for one thing that the moderators here are a little anal.
And nothing kills a board like anal moderators.
It takes all the fun out of posting.
I started a thread about a EA\'s NCAA football a while ago.
The review was well done, people\'s responces were good, we were all having fun, then a couple of guys (myself included) were giving props to our "teams" going back and forth a little but being totally cool abou it, and whadda ya know, some jacka$$ spouts off and said, "ok thats it, this if off topic now, it\'s being moved."
I was thinking get a life you moron (and i\'m sure a lot of people on here were thinking the same)It\'s stuff like that that makes people just want to ......well, leave.
I know maybe the topic starting turning but SO WHAT???? If was FUN! You know ....FUN! We were having a little FUN!
Iv\'e seen it happen before on a few boards, some over anal moderators run people off.

Thats all people. If the mods lighten up a little, I think people will have more fun on this board.
Oh and thats not the ONLY thing that I have seen happen, There are TONS of things.
I urge people to speak up and give their own experiences.
So that way maybe some of the mods can get a better understanding.
They all need to lighten up. You have the power, ok, we understand, can you leave us alone now.
If not we can leave (which I believe a lot of people have)

But we do have an Off-topic section for just that. And I am not here that often because Im playing several of the games that have come out recently. And the more great games being released the more I will not be on.

I do agree, Gman2, overly zealous mods are hell on a game board.  I never did care for separating off-topics from on-topics, what\'s the point?  It\'s not any fun that way and if we can\'t have fun on a board devoted to video-games, then why the hell bother coming to a board devoted to video-games?

The mods should be far more concerned with cracking down on pathetic brain-dead dip****s like the recently retarded Animal Mother and leave topics that stray slightly alone.  Just my opinion...though I would like to reiterate that Animal Mother is a pathetic braind-dead dip****, it bears repeating...

2: Troglodyte isnt here

Such is life in a Communist dictatorship.

Look, Gman2, this forum has been going.. and going great.. for about 2(3?) years with basically the same mods. We\'ve had up times, we\'ve had downtimes.. but this board has not only survived.. but has thrived where alotta others had failed... execially ones with very lenient mods. (Cough* PS2k.net *Cough) I\'d say the mods here have done a dam fine job, and it\'s not yours or anyone else\'s place to critisize them.

I don\'t know about Main Forum - but Off-topic is far from dead.

It is just that many oldbies have vanished ( where\'s mm - he hardly ever posts anymore or Aaron, who had a long break, posted quite a bit in a short period and vanished again? ). And some very promising new members as well - Troglodyte ( was the FASTEST poster easily, plus never spammed, but only for a while ).

I haven\'t seen Living-in-Clip for a while - but I\'m pretty sure he\'s around.

I have been trying to raise up the interest towards this board again - but I think I\'m not succeeding. Yet at least.

I have NEVER had ANY problems with our moderators nor admins. What have made them so special is their acting. They\'re not over-zealous - they\'re just like everyone. They sound, act, and be whom they are; just like a normal member - they\'re not acting powerful. Of course they have to do their job, but they\'re very friendly and wise - just prime examples of what a member should aim for. They\'re nothing over-special, uber-human, and they certainly don\'t act like they\'d be.

Power can get to one\'s head - but they have been saved from it.

Perfect example of a member whom became Moderator, not too long ago: Samwise. I remember what he was like when he was a member, and I was quite afraid after he got selected to be a moderator that he\'d change; but no. He\'s just like he was.

And I must say that as of late, moderators haven\'t had too much job. They have of course moved a lot of topics - but I haven\'t seen any trolls around. They\'re too the wave from past...

[ I\'m pretty sure that the launch of x-box will bring us many trolls, however ]

hey animal mother whats wrong dude, i have never seen you act like that before??? you need to chill dude.

the reason why its dead is because everyoen is waiting for NGC and X Box, once they get release we will be flooded with trolls, maybe rev X will return :D snd when thye arrive i will be waiting, PS2 knowledge in had and ready for action!

Why does it bother you that the thread was moved?  You can still post in it cant you, and it hasn\'t changed has it?

Post by: StAnZo on October 06, 2001, 10:26:40 AM

The mods on the Play now forums are a little bit like that.. not to say that psx2c mods act in this way imho.

Someone posted something about the nascar game for x-box.. they commented on what it would
look like with a 22 car pile up. now in my reply, i said about 7 fps m8 lol..
But then i continued to tell him that i was willing to have a look and iv\'e become quite open and
grown up about the matter. but it got deleted. Mods.. don\'t u just hate some of them...

Lets just hope that is is about 7 fps :laughing:
