Open Site Blathering (formerly Advice from iridium ITT)

[Thrillho]

[FaheyUSMC]

Still waiting to be told Im getting unbanned.

I've got nothing from the staff despite a double-bump and a conversation with Gals.

I don't know if that means the discussion behind closed doors is brutal, or if I'm just being ignored as a trouble-maker.

No one likes you.

[Azrael]

Probably has something to do with it.

Just received word that admin is still huddling on the Kpaca issue.

[Yannaria]

lol, summits

[Sir Sapphire the 3rd]

More shit gets done on a peace summit around nuketown korea then the so called mtgs summits.

[Blackhound]

I see Ria has become a lounge consultant, forgive my sarcasm but is he going to give advice on how he ran things while he was admin ? He was a good tech, ill give him that.

[Sir Sapphire the 3rd]

This is like asking racist to help with the image of a company trying to show it cares about all races

[Second Harkius]

His distress over resigning from an honorary position left him wanting another honorary position.

[Second Harkius]

Add Curse to the list of people who see the current mod staff as incompetent. By my count, the list now includes....everyone except the mod staff.

[Second Harkius]

It's ok though since their plan of firing fun people in order to "bring the fun back" seems to be paying off.

ria is the last person you should be asking to be a lounge consultant. tech consultant, sure, but lounge? no.

[Yannaria]

you crazy for that one staff

[Col. Khaddafi]

How dare you come over to another site - a site of people slighted by you - and tell them how they "should" run things. How have the temerity to come over to a forums run by people you insulted, denigrated, and shit on just to say, "You should stop badmouthing us! You guys are being mean!"

One month ago TO THE DAY, you told me that you would work on getting a Q&A session set up between myself and the other admins. You told me you would keep me apprised. You asked me not to make that information public because it would "force your hand" and if the admins decided not to go with it, you would be seen as covering things up, of not being transparent.

One month. And I have not heard a damn peep from you.

Right now,
scuttlebutt is that Curse has backed off from the talks. One source inside the corporation has confirmed this is the case, because according to him:

"It's just a huge clusterfuck. When the initial demand was made concerning that particular subforum, we expected that the moderators and other staff could handle it professionally and discreetly. We wanted this taken care of because Curse has things in place to protect sensible people. You know how it is, people are offended by the most trivial shit. What we didn't realize was that there were more leaks on that site than a fucking condom with holes poked into it. So when the information got out about what was going on, we had to back off. We had to tell them, "Oh yeah, it was just a request, it was not really an order!" We had the ability to come away looking clean in this whole thing, and what do you know? Fucked up by people. Again.

Tell me, who would want to buy a website whose community hates us for what we did? If we take
it over - which is a possibility in the future, keep in mind - there's going to be some major housecleaning. The staff just cannot be allowed to remain the way it is."

You tell us what to do, but you can't even keep your own house in-line. Don't give me shit.

Solid post, this should be reposted in the StarcityGames forums

[Kaitscralt]

I have a feeling that Fahey did more than a little paraphrasing.

[Yannaria]

fabriphrasing

[Azrael]

Possible, but the style of the writing isn't Fahey's. It's someone else.

[Kaitscralt]

It does not take a prophet to know what Curse is saying about Salvation... it's the same thing the rest of the nerd world says about Salvation.

The sale has likely been off the table for two months now.

[iamabadman]

i'm the leak. im a dirty mouthed motherfucker

[Thrillho]

I'm the leak. I've actually been Nai all this time. Hope you don't need a towel getting all that egg off of your faces.

[Kaitscralt]

I would have been the leak but someone got there first

[Yannaria]

I'm the CEO of Curse and have access to a super secret admin account on MTGS and have been leaky to N_S the entire time.

[admin]

OK guys, as unfunny as this may be, lets keep the signal-to-noise ratio high, otherwise those interested in having a real discussion on those issues cannot skim through all this noise.

[Kaitscralt]

Onar you didn't.

For the moment - right now, it sounds like they're hoping everyone's going to forget what they tried to do and can waltz back in later on.

funny thing is, i bet if the admins were open and honest, and actually talked with us none of this hoopla would happen. like yea sure this place is cool, and i hope it gets a lot of traffic, but we arent for the
average magic player.


also im hoping if curse finally buys mtgsilly that they do throw out the asshole mods.

[ExarionUniverse1]

Onar you didn't.

I did, why do you guys still care about what they say? They lied , banned you guys , you made a new site . The issue should be history.


and yet you guys get lead in to their provocations.

It's unfortunate when a guy who goes around telling everyone in earshot how not mad he is about the internet comes onto your forum to let you know exactly how not mad about the internet he is.

Its also funny that an admin of another forum is telling you guys what you guys are slowly falling into,

which is hatred toward MTGS and bickering about history , waging petty wars just because you got lied to and banned on a unfair forum as MTGS , and very quickly becoming just like them , with exception that its different usernames.

Guys , grow up and learn to ignore MTGS .

[iamabadman]

Hi, I'm jokes. Nice to meet you.

Edit:
There has been no "war," unless you consider lampooning internet cynic comedy gold in a parody forum awards to be an all-out "war," but then I don't know what the people who've, yano, actually died or lost limbs or been mutilated or lived in fear or developed PTSD would have to say about having internet comedy jokes compared to
their experiences. Well now I've made myself sad.

Badman , I respect you , but this site seems obsessive of MTGS.

Sure you guys didn't but people making fun of liars here is not a good way ethier.

What I am trying to say : People let go , continue with your lives. The event has happened, you guys made a new home and yet you guys get all defensive when MTGS provokes you.


Thirillo , I have and I am not Sene by a longshot

On a very special Thrillho post:
People also mourn loss and have a period where they patch up and heal
wounds. People have many different ways of doing this. Some people drink. Some people/cultures cry for 40 days straight. Some approach it with humor.

In the middle of our humor mourning period, a bunch of protesters with signs showed up to tell us that God hates fags and spoiled the mood of the affair.

I guess I have a odd humor perception

[Thrillho]

This is a serious question because it's an issue of culture: is cynical or parody-based humor not common in Russia? Particularly online?

Example: do you "get" The Onion?

political humor mostly and its always black as in negative...

[Thrillho]

So do you not see the parallel in our lampooning of politics on the internet with comedy as is common to you?

correct, we stick to facts.

although we do caricatures alot

[Mogadishu Jones]

You realize you're basically doing the same thing as Sene right now right?

Like if it bothers you why are you here, reading this thread...
