Another Resignation?

deleteddeletedover 11 years ago

Yup. It is. I have many things to talk about, some worse than others. I'm not gonna make a long intro so let's begin:

1.) Doing this last investigation made me realize how much I don't want to mod anymore. I am beginning a lot of cool IRL stuff and don't ever want to put this much time into anything on a game website ever again. It was tiring and I knew no matter what we would get crap from our decision. It's almost like a chore.

2.) Moderator attitude sucks. Mod chat is an absolute disgrace on Skype. It is a huge orgy where literally nothing serious is spoken about 95% of the time. Oh yeah, and let me also say that jericho posted a **** picture and kino half naked pictures of herself. I do not wish to take part in any such thing, especially since it's supoosed to be moderator chat.

3.) Vancy let too many people mod that shouldn't be mods. Jericho did cheat. Yes, there are chat logs being withheld by a third party for reasons I do not know.

4.) Kino isn't necessarily a bad person, but she is the most unprofessional mod I have ever seen. She posted all that crap, and even account shared with banned users/people who weren't mods. It is totally unacceptable and she never should have been modded.

5 has been removed for personal reasons

6.) I've been feeling ostracized from the rest of the team a lot lately. I normally have different views than a lot of the mod team, but when I voiced my opinion on numerous occasions, I was yelled at by some of my fellow mods for "overreacting" or "not being a team player" etc.

7.) There is more leaking going on and I am getting tired of not being able to trust most of my team members.

To sum this up, I am generally unhappy being a mod and I am probably going to get slammed by Jasper for not talking to him about this stuff first, but everyone needs a wake up call. Jasper is a really great guy and I think you all should give him more of a chance to prove himself. He has so much potential.

Personal shout out to Ucklar for being on the team for so long, it's really hard to do.

Also, Jasper, please look for cheating mods to replace me, thanks!

Thanks, community for dealing with my sarcastic posts all the time. I really had the community in mind at all times when it got serious. I promise you I never tried anything against you all on purpose. Leaving modding now is the best decision for me and the site at this point.

TL; DR: I'm tired of modding. Wake up mod team.

It depends on if bad posts are defined as illogical or emotional "spazzing" lol, but then that is fairly obvious.
Don't offer real opinions on things imo, you're better off sticking to pokemon gifs.

forum posting is the litmus test for good modding. everyone will deny this, but it's 100% the truth and if you make bad posts, you will be a bad mod.
I do think that whoever wants to be a mod should be involved in EM politics a bit if they are to be a good mod. Like, I'd much prefer modding someone like uprizzle over some random training person who, while might be excellent at reports, won't know of all the problems with the mod team as it is.

Not campaigning for uprizxle, just an example

As someone who talked to vancy a whole lot, let me assure you that he was a freaking moron who wanted nothing more as admin than a group of e-friends.

modding picks became "I want my friend modded" "what do they bring to the table" "Idk they want to be mod and i think they'd be good (:"
I only remember two mods you suggested and one of which everyone was pretty darn open to. The other one I know at least I gave reason for disapproving of, and it had nothing to do with friendship because the person is actually very kind to me and I genuinely like them so ?

quiet/nonposting does not necessarily mean bad posting, rondar. use your thinkbrain

i don't know about that. I can recall a few quiet/non-posting mods that weren't bad at all.

Edit: buuut, I'll agree that good poster = good mod is probably true. The reverse just isn't.

i got over it a long time ago, but what you did upset my 15-17 year old Maturing Mentality and you enjoyed it and that's why i remember it so harshly

Idiom I don't actually know what goes over there but if all of these happen (like kino account sharing) and there's no demod I do jump to the conclusion that the admin needs more balls. That's why I am saying it, so that they go get them (not necessarily demod anyone right now like others are suggesting, but be PREPARED to). Unsupervised account sharing was an insta demod before

headhunting mods isn't that hard, you all just didn't want to mod the people i wanted to mod.

wait so why is 5 redacted then? that seems fairly important.

also im sorry, dave. i know you think i did it with malicious intent but tbh it was never meant that way, in all honesty. ive said this before, but maybe you forgot/missed it

Well, yeah, it's kind of hard to mod someone you don't even know. :) Recent admins have tried to go out and search for good mods from training (now main), however.
