Kurgan Posted February 5, 2005 Share Posted February 5, 2005 Don't anyone panic, but I added Zbomber as a moderator in this forum. I'll admit I mostly did this because he's signed on to help us with the RC.net/GoCloneArmy.com site staff (he contributed the Xbox demo review). So this way he can see the private forums and keep up to date. However, he'll also be here to help you guys out. Obviously, I've told him about the rules and how we do things, and he's a long-time forum poster and useful guy so I think he'll be fine. So give him your support and show 'em the ropes just like any other new mod. I'm also up for other suggestions for people if we need 'em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well at least you respect mah authoritah! Kidding aside, I hope you'll put aside any personal issues you have for the greater good of the forums. Since I made the call I'll be happy to discuss any specific problems you have via PM... if you think I made a mistake let's talk about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZBomber Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 I'm 100% aware that most of you do not agree with me being a mod, what-so-ever. That is why I'm gonna step down. Just a few things, I think you guys are getting the wrong idea of me.... 1. Some of you say I just post for the post count. I'm not. I have a lot of time on my hand, and besides, what's the use of having x amount of posts? After 1250, there is no other award. I post because it's fun and I like the community. 2. Some others say I'm bossy. Maybe. but if this is about the collecting forum, I was just trying to get some conversation/suggestions started, so when the new flood of people come with Ep III, they'll like it and enjoy. If I was bossy, I'd be barking out a lot more orders than just a suggestion for the collecting forum. I think I even presented it politely. And if you don't like me, I'm sorry, I don't try to make enemies, I'm not looking for fights. Why would I? It's very clear you guys are loyal to each other, you'll stick up for one another. Who do I have to back me up? Like I said, I'm not looking for enemies, and even if I was, I'd be making a foolish mistake. It was nice being part of the staff, even if it was just for 2 days. Thanks for the opportunity. -ZBomber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurgan Posted February 7, 2005 Author Share Posted February 7, 2005 Alright, well, sorry about that then. I'd like to apologize to Zbomber for putting him on the spot when he wasn't ready/welcome, and to the guys who felt they should have gotten more warning. It's true I can't anticipate every grudge or past history between members, that's not my job, but it is my job to make sure things go smoothly, so here I am again. I honestly didn't expect the reaction I'd get, and after talking with some of the mods/supermods it sounds like you made the right decision. Being a mod shouldn't be a popularity contest, and lots of people in the real world have to work with people every day that they don't care for or agree with, but on the other hand, if you can't work with the folks you're with, that brings everything down. I hope whatever differences you guys have can be settled someday, but for now, I guess it's best if we just cool off. I'll keep Zbomber up to date on the site going's on, as long as he's a contributing staffer for RC.net. As I told him and he's agreed, everything said in confidence stays in confidence. We won't have any of these arguments spilling out into the public forums. We'll have no retaliations or other nonesense, but I know you guys are above all that. Obviously my action brought some pent up feelings to the surface, and I'm sorry for that, but we'll get through it and back to business. Nobody on the outside need worry about this, period. Anyway, anyone else want to say anything more on this subject? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
