*DAMN R6 Forum

I've simply had enough of this bullshit from whoever keeps locking the Rogue Spear Petition thread. The thread is for a good fucking cause, and it is quite obvious that you are against the idea of having Rogue Spear ported to OSX, but you don't have the balls to go up against the entire community.

Yesterday, Spike and I posted our frustration that the thread was being locked (when it was AGAIN, unlocked by voodoo), but this corrupt admin then decided to delete our complaints, go against the guidelines of the administration and moderation policies, and yet again, lock the rogue spear petition thread.

Therefore, I have decided to try to narrow it down to the possibilities:

The only people with moderator's access to the General Gossip are:
Ace, Brain, Assassin, VooDoo, Mauti,

Ace
Brain
Assassin
Voodoo
Mauti

I crossed out VooDoo and Brain because these have been the two supporting mods of this thread. Brain was the one that originally made it a sticky, and VooDoo has been unlocking it every day.

Ace
Assassin
Mauti


I crossed out Ace because he is very inactive. And havn't been on either GameRanger or the forum (from what anyone has seen) in quite a while. Also, after speaking with Cringe, he said that Ace would most likely be very supportive of the petition.

Assassin
Mauti

I crossed out Mauti because from what I have heard from a couple different battle league admins is that Mauti always gives reasons for locking threads. Secondly, Mauti went on vacation.

Assassin
VooDoo has been defending Assassin, saying that he replied in an admin-only thread, saying that he wasn't the one locking it.


But my question is... why would someone with a PC want rogue spear for OSX?

My next question is... why would someone with a PC fight rogue spear for OSX?



So you see my dilemma.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Therefore, I call out to the General Gossip Posters, and ask anyone to share what they know so that we can determine which admin is either fucking with our heads just for fun, or abusing their power.

This message has been copy/pasted, and will be posted again if deleted by that same admin.
A screenshot will also be taken.

It has also been posted in the Admin Criticism forum.

 >:(

umm... Elandrion and Infection don't have full administrator access for the *DAMN forums. you can delete em from your list. :)

hmm... looks like it's Assassin, doesn't it?

Imagine that, a corrupt admin abusing his "power"

And why the .... is it so hard to convert this game to osx anyways, youd think one of us could somehow do it...maybe someone like Xoclipse, I dunno...but the RS mod for RvS is pretty tight.

Civic, I was under the impression he could do everything that Mauti could do.

And as for Infection, he took over the Battle League at some point when Mauti went away. All he has to do is log in again using whatever username and password he used while Mauti was away (according to Typhy). However, Infect was the last person I was thinking of to do this, as he's never around anymore these days, anyway.

Elandrion... do you have admin access? Can you lock threads in the General Gossip?

Ok, good idea. But I wanted it to get noticed. I'll post it there also.

nice deduction, but i don't have admin access here. i don't even have moderator powers in the general gossip forum. you can see a list of the moderators of each forum on the forums index page.

secondly, i have been on vacation from Friday until today.

Elan

simply check their forum accounts and their statuses there... neither of em has full administrator access for the forums. Mauti is the only one. :)

that with Infection taking over the BL (cuz of Mauti being away) is long ago and was before the new BL scripts and logins... Elandrion has full admin powers there, though, as you can see in the Battle League Staff (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~damnr6/clanladder/index2.php?module=blstaff) section on the BL site -> "Uberadmins". ;) don't pay attention for the BattleLeague Admin list there... it's not up to date.


EDIT: LOL, Elandrion... we posted at the exact same time. :o

Why would assassin do it?  If he wanted to play rs he could just go on his pc.  I say its voodoo he is a double agent.  Unlock then lock unlock and lock so he looks like the good guy.

   Let's put some things in perspective here. Ace, Brain, Assassin, Voodoo, and Mauti all have the power to do something like this. So let's think back and to which ones played Rogue Spear, and supported it the most. That takes out about 4-5 people including Voodoo. I

Now another issue is at hand, the main thread that keeps getting locked and deleted is to port Rogue Spear to "OSX." I'm Sure 90% percent of the admins have OSX, but I'm almost sure one or two of them don't. So why would they want Rogue Spear ported to OSX when it doesn't concern them?! Heres you're answer he is pissed of from not having a good computer, and no OSX. If everybody around you is got all this new stuff, and you are stuck in the past you would become bitter and jealous.

What this person is also doing is making all this work for the other admins that is not needed. Voodoo is trying as hard as he can to get to the bottom of this, but this coward won't come clean. Let me tell you now there isn't some fucking ghost logging into *DAMN and deleting and locking things that have to do with porting Rogue Spear. I have a good idea who i think it is, but i am going to wait to point the finger until i have more solid evidence. All i can say now is this "corrupt admin" should of came clean at first now he's got one foot in the grave, and the other is on a banana peal.

lol, sorry maniac, but that argument has some holes.

If someone has OS9, and is stuck playing Rogue Spear, don't you think that they would be full supportive of an OSX version so that they would have more people to play with?

Hum...

Myst is on the Case.  8)

Psyks Voodoo isn't what i like to call a dumbass. I'm sure he wouldn't find it funny to lock and unlock a bunch of shit to just look like to the good guy, whats in it for him? He is a Rogue Spear fan, and has told me himself he can't stand the BS. So my question to you is why would he?

Ok Assassin, I see your name in the group of people currently browsing the forum.

Lets hear your input.

I haven't read any thread lately, much less lock any thread. I have nothing against you guys trying to get RS ported for OSX, and I hope you guys can get it done. Just have Mauti check the logs of who was doing what, because from what I can tell from reading this thread, the other thread has been locked numerous times - something I wouldn't have the time and/or effort to do since I am now working 40+ hours a week.

I will admit I was the one who un-stickied it when I saw that it had not received a post within three days, but since there seems to be an interest in it again, so I will re-sticky it. As for anyone assuming that I was the one doing the locking - fuck you. Being an admin on these forums for this long and being associated with the community for as long as I have, you would think that I would have earned a degree of trust by now...but apparently I haven't.

Don't start arguing who's right now..
All we know that an "corrupt admin" is doing this.
IF we don't have a ghost locker...
I can't say who it is. But the guy that is doing it have to tell WHY soon. Or otherwise every moderator/admin, will get a little nice ticking letter home.

Just saying you're not the one doesn't make you innocent. Would anyone here actually say it out loud to the RS community if you did a thing like this? C'mon...

something like that, a log for all actions of moderators etc, doesn't exist, unfortunately.

Really?!  Are you sure?  Why wouldn't there be?

I certainly believe that you've earned a degree of trust.

The problem is, EVERY admin has earned a degree of trust by now.

I mean come on: You, Ace, Brain, Voodoo, Mauti...

There's not one person in that list that I could understand having a reason for doing this.

So please, just try to put up with our inquiries for now until we figure out what's going on.

---------------

Oh, and thanks for making it a sticky again.

***Snipe humps Sin's leg.

such a log feature has never been integrated... and won't be for YaBB SE (what this forum uses).

the developing team dumped it and is working on a new project at the moment... Simple Machines. i don't know, though, if they're planning to integrate such a log feature there...

Ugh, Vood...

First of all, the whole reason I put it in the General Gossip is because NO ONE CHECKS THIS PART OF THE FORUM.


Second... Why do you think the thread was inactive? Maybe because 9 times out of 10 that I wanted to post something, IT WAS LOCKED!
