I'm more worked up about the fact Otacon felt the need to rub our noses in it - when only a week or two ago, a thread was created (by a user, IIRC) asking for more avatars.

*sniffle* nast Donny wonny is *sob* rubbing our noses in the fact we can't have new piccy wiccys under our usernames. My life as I know it is over... goodbye cruel world.

*sobs*

:D

No you don't. You pay for your computer parts - which, by the way, you get at a good price, shipped quickly and with (apparently) good customer support. You're perfectly free to buy your computer bits somewhere else, just like you're perfectly free to go and find another forum to post on.

Yes we do. In fact my employer actually pays for the forums, because he pays me a wage, which I use to buy computer parts, which pays for the forums.

My employer demands more avatars!

From the gist of the thread im guessing mods "abusing" their powers and creating threads which people could consider spam?

Correct me if im wrong, in which case I will apologise with the appropriate humility. Just seems much ado about nothing... :D


My original message that got deleted was something along those lines, i said if this was something by me or Megzy there would have been a padlock on it. If everyone (especially the don enforcing them) is going on about putting up the standards in the forum right, then i think this thread is nothing short of spam and hence i urged other non-don-members to declear it spam......That's all i said and it got deleted. The best comment he could come out with was "I win".....Please!

I aint to fussy about the avatar but i think dishing out double standard is so wrong period.

My reason for asking you is i read your post as you think im going on about the avatar....

Or for the brown nosers to sure up there weak characters by backing a Don.


Yes El it's the double standards thta's wrong here not the ****** avatar.
They post stickys saying they are going to raise the standards then Spam themselves. Hypocrits.
 
I thought the opening line was quite funny - got a smile and a sharp intake of breath :)

Can't people just see it for that? - Does it matter what avatar you have? - there are people on here that are not using the avatar that goes with their post count - Tru, Zip and El spring to mind...

If this is how the forums treats its users, including yourself, I would personally be looking elsewhere for purchasing.

I think the original post was a piece of ART! It magnificently but succintly puts forum matters into perspective while delivering a deeper message that no matter what you may want from life, it's important to view what you have got, and value it for what it really is.

*gets in barrel*

Dude my comment to you wasn't meant maliciously it was tounge-in-cheek. This is a forum, and on any forum I have been a member of you will get moderators doing things to upset users, it's what happens when you give a regular muggins a taste of online power, they abuse it on occasion.

But still it certainly isn't anything to worry about mate, it's just some guy on some forum and as such a complete non-issue. Ignore it! :)

It would actually be useful if I knew what the bloke was trying to do.

At the end of the day, I'm not amused by Otacon's abuse of powers.

Willy waving that he can have more avatars to us, when only a short time ago a thread was made askign for more.

If that's not rubbing our noses in the filth, then what is?

Careful mate, people have been banned for saying less than this before :)
To be honest, I can't help wonder how many holidays will be dished out to users to in this thread.

If they want to ban me for pretty much saying "spend your money more wisely" then sobeit.

Edit: Not actually saying I want to be banned, BTW.
