-=ReApEr=- Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 That people sums it all up, something needs to be done. People are commiting these rule breaks, and nothing is being done. Instead all because a bunch of members cause damage to Lucasforums and the rest of us have to suffer. First of this scam gos deeper, first of all the supermods of Mi all knew and some Moderators there set it up. One in particular Thirk and scabb they are partly responsible. Also with give Thirk credits going on it has cleary got out of hand, things need to be sorted and we need to unite. This matter has been going on for months, the Monkey island forum, funny enough once again another issue is traced to them. Anyone remember the porn issue, the policy issue. All support by those supermods. Something needs to be done now. Before the real damage does begin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

•-BLaCKouT-• Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 Originally posted by Havoc Stryphe and to even silence those who would speak out against these heinous individuals. Erm, does that mean me? When I mentioned the flaming? All I meant was that I think this is a Mod/Super Mod/Admin issue, and flaming the individuals concerned will only stir more trouble as well as being against the forum rules and ethics we're trying to enforce here. Anyway, hypothetical question: If the points system was abolished, would we all get glowy-names, italic names and sig-images for free? Just wondering. Personally I don't think the system should be scrapped, I think it encourages a community of people who post often and who know each other better. As well as being an incentive for help and symbol of gratitude in more technical areas (donated points ~unprompted~ this morning to a guy who helped me with a query in the Valley). But I do agree that this particular problem does seem to have been dragged out a bit. Although we don't know what's going on behind the scenes do we? Anyways, peace out, B, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havoc Stryphe Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 Originally posted by BLaCKouT_1138 Erm, does that mean me? When I mentioned the flaming? No, it is in reference to a certain individual's thread being closed when all she was doing was shedding light on the situation and laying bare, their scheme, for all of Lucasforums to see. It is not for us we must see this to the end, but for Shannon. She has endured so much in her personal life as of late, and these forums are where she comes to unwind, seek guidance, relax, and in general, have fun. That experience has been ruined by a select few who believed themselves "above the law" and without reproach. She saw that for what it really was and spoke out, and for doing so she has only recieved heartache. We must, and we will, stand against those who have committed, allowed, and/or continue to allow these activities to continue or those perpetrators of said acts walk freely without punishment. I swear by all that is holy, Shannon, I will see this to the end. If it means my own banishment from these forums, so be it. You have been the epitomy of an upright forummer. Concerned in the well being of others and a true fellowship among friends. I will not let that legacy be tainted or lost. I will speak to all who will listen and we will join togethor in the very spirit you embodied here on these forums. Togethor, what was once a still, small voice, will boom through these forums, reverberating from thread to thread until none have been without hearing our message and we will awake the sleeping giant within. They will listen, for they will have no other choice, and they will be made to act. Wether in our favor or not, they will act, and we shall see the future of these forums played out in a single moment, and may justice prevail in that moment so that we may look to our future as a community with a peace that comes from knowing everything is going to be alright, because good can still triumph of the wicked works of evil men...

-=ReApEr=- Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 Agreed, we must unite together. And see this through, we want the other people resonsible gone. And how can these people be moderators when they are not even doing there job. No offense but spending time to try and break a store which belongs to a forum is really sad. And what else is sad many of them are not being punished. These certain issues are comming back and back. And again are getting hidden until the next issue comes, i for one can't wait till the store gos. As bit by bit these troublemakers are being cut off. But still many people will not agree, but overal changes have to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheHobGoblin Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 The point system was to improve posting which was a good idea yet I bet they know this crap would happen unfortunatly due to a greedy bastard and his band of misfits the system must be taken out. This is why I get angry at these people they take advantage over something good. I think Thirk should get temp ban or at least from the store.

Remi Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 I'm still trying to figure out why Thrik should be banned. Because he has a lot of points? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHobGoblin Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 No becuase the scams he is pulling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remi Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 He's not pulling any scams. He didn't post the link to the page which gave him points, nor did he create it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrik Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 Indeed. Most of you seem to be consumed by ignorance. I didn't even know about that scam link until after it had all been dealt with. I was in no way connected with it all. Think what you will, but that's the truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt-- Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 I just want to wake everyone up to the harsh reality of it all. Credits are not real. They don't have any bearing on real life, or even on your forum standing. If all goes as planned, the credit system will be revamped into something much different in the days (probably weeks) to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obi Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 I have one quick thing to add. Havoc Stryphe, I closed the thread not because I condone the acts of the people that did junk, and before you go getting all Shakespear on me, you have to know why I closed it. I did so in order to prevent further discussion of this junk that's been going on. It's being handled, wheather or not you believe me is up to you, but it is.
