Anthony as a Mod

deletedabout 10 years

Anthony is a good guy, an amazing player, and probably a good mod. However, I think it's important to enforce a no-tolerance approach on cheaters as mods.

jasper didn't mod me because i railed on projectmatt. that's it. i was a straight and honest dude to him during the whole process and he was very impressed, while other mods at the time shut me down because "it was all fake". when those mods were gone, projectmatt turned against me because i didn't like his girlfriend. none of that has anything to do with any reports


Do you see what I mean about the social aspect superseding the game? Connor is the right choice for mod, from a gameplay aspect. From a social aspect, well, who THE HELL CARES


yeah and then all of the sudden you've got people being unwilling to stand up for something they believe in because it means a two hour long argument with connor that goes nowhere, and all of the sudden the integrity of the entire team is compromised because you can't expect every single mod to have the mental makeup to want to argue for 2 hours every night about doc jointing


That's why he should be admin.

connor i think it's fair to say if you learned to play nice with people you don't like you'd have gotten modded again awhile ago.


playing nice isn't fun, and isn't worth being a mod over


heh, i respect that.

Projectmatt tries so hard to sound eloquent and it makes him look the opposite


it's really embarrassing, but not as embarrassing as when apple shows up to say "that's just how he talks, he should be a writer"

I feel like if you could explain to them the way you understand things without calling them waste of space then they would take a liking to you.

Connor's gotten way better than he was before and the only reason there was any opposition to Connor in the first place was by the younger mods who were afraid that he'd be mean to them although I believe most of his decisions, whilst being a mod would be objectively correct.

you're 100% wrong because i had zero problems with projectmatt at that time. the reason i got so mad then was because i expected him to understand

There's really no reason to be so selective about mods because people try to change their attitudes as soon as they're modded. At the very least Connor would try to make an effort to be impartial.

Zovea had the best mod application and should have been modded

Connor would permaban someone for saying a slur lol

BiIIStickers says

you keep acting like this is all about reports and it makes me think you actually believe it's all about reports and that politics and bureaucracy don't actually matter


the time where i had a forum fight with projectmatt about two reports by me and calvin is what keeps sticking in my head whenever you talk about it, because that is a time i remember i was being outrageously stubborn, but also happened to be correct


and i think its 100% fair to say that your reaction in that situation was largely predicated on the fact that you were arguing with projectmatt instead of someone you respected, because i've seen it time after time from you.

bottom line is that i don't believe your mind is capable of being changed by people you don't have pre existing respect for, and that's an issue. i think matt could make an argument to you that you'd fight tooth and nail against, and then i could come to you an hour later with the exact same argument and you'd be more receptive

and before someone says "lol you'd never have been admin", yes, obviously, i never expected it to happen, but arcbell did and i asked him why

Connor was good to work with - I can vouch for our time together when Arcbell was admin. He can make you feel like a turd for disagreeing with him or doing something that he doesn't like, but the passion is definitely a good trait, even if his intensity can be polarizing to some.

I'd want to see how the site would look with Connor as admin.


First bronto post I've ever agreed with. I think I'd like this site a lot under Connor, aside from the inevitable censorship an feelies pandering.

when arcbell went down and when vancy went down, arcbell's argument for me taking the spot [paraphrasing] "your biggest motivation on epicmafia is being right all the time and when that comes at the cost of how you make yourself look, you don't care"

No, that's not it. When Jasper and Vancy were admins there was a decent opposition to you not being modded.


not then.


I mean, Jasper himself was against you being mod iirc. I don't see why he would change his mind as his team changed so I assume his reasons are still there

connor respects you and therefore your interaction is civil, even when he's at his most hostile. it's no different than the relationship i have with connor.

the issue isn't about me or you
