1-2 worded RPs are fine so long are they are limited, but if you are bothered by them, just turn your head the other way. Even I roleplay sometimes.


No, Suka. Dood. I know the rules. I WAS there when Steet declaired that one. And thats not what bothers me. IT BOTHERS ME WHEN THE DO OVER THAT. :roll: I have sat and WATCHED mods sit there and not care. I mean, I want to single ONE person out on this, but I wont. I dont want to deal with her. But she does this constantly. And its like "How HARD is it to click over to the Roleplay?"... I mean, yes, I DO miss when not even the "*glomp*" or "*hug*" thing was allowed. Whatever. But it doesn't bother me to terribly much.

Anyways, try to go in front of them in a nice way, without acting superior and they might understand. Take Axel as example, he´s very good at those things.


Oh excuse me, I didn't think when I asked people to not do so and so I was being 'superior' about it. :roll: And as I DID mention before, I am gonna get banned if I say anything. One of the mods have SPEFICICALLY told me this.

And pardon if I throw it at the mods. But I sit there and watch you all just sit there and do nothing. See, when Catadventure was on more, and someone was not following the rules, she straight out asked them to stop. I dont know what you mods do these days, PM them or something, but whatever it is, its not working.

Thats not very nice. No offence, but if you think BaltoSource is like this then why are you still here? And I haven't actually seen the Mods use SMS. As I am a mod I can see the Mod's shoutbox and I haven't seen a glipse off SMS launguage. So can you be more precise about who is using it?


I would leave if it where for some people here, as I had stated above. And I dont really see MODS use SMS. I believe they are smarter than that. And I dont see the mods shoutbox. I dont know, nor care, what they say there. And I am more or less directing it to the 'roleplaying/actioning'. (I say 'actioning' because I have been TOLD its not roleplaying. So bah).

Deni wrote:
Also you can't say "I WILL BAN YOU IF YOU USE SMS" Nah..that'd be one of more reasons people would say "You're unfair".


Uh, I believe you CAN ban them if you can't understand them. Its not being 'unfair', Deni. Its following the rules.

Deni wrote:
Yes RP is FORBIDDEN on the regular shoutbox, but you can use MAXIMUM 3 words. If I am wrong, then I am sorry, I don't really get the sense of RP.


You are wrong. Its Two words or less.

Kari wrote:
I honestly think you're taking a small thing too seriously. Yes, if people use roleplaying WAY too often and treat the regular shoutbox like the RP, then we will intervene. But if it's a couple words (2-5) then it really isn't that big of a deal. Roleplaying more than the desired amount of words will NOT bring a site like this to it's knees; believe me. It's just not that huge. In fact, roleplaying like that on the regular shoutbox is probably the LEAST important rule and the one that doesn't cause too much of a problem or disturbance.


This rule may not. But letting people break it makes them think they can break other rules. And they will continue to do this when the mods aren't around. I may take it a bit to seriously, but hey... thats me. I MISS the old days. But they aren't coming back. The most I can do is complain. And I plan to. :roll:

Kari wrote:
Also, EVERYONE, once in a blue moon, says things such as *hugs* or *sighs* or something related. But, since you're so big on rules, that's not more than 2 words, is it, hun?


I do it too. But at least I make sure its under two. And yes, I believe it IS a big deal if its over two words. Because if it isn't annoying enough just to see TWO words in the aristics.. I have to see five. :roll:

I mean.. One word over once in a while doesn't bother me that much anymore. ITS THOSE PEOPLE WHO SIT THERE JUST TO SPIT ME AND EVERY OTHER POST, POST FIVE WORDS. I am gonna single you out Kayla - You have sat there and WATCHED this, and not care. Its people like THAT who abuse this 'oh I let you do this, but another mod might not' thing that goes on.

Bruno wrote:
As for RP, personally, I couldn't care less if they RP or not. Occasionally it gets annoying and I'll just let them know it is techinically against the rules and that they stand a chance of being banned for it, then they'll typically stop and if they don't I'll PM a Mod and they WILL take care of it. I have not encountered a time yet when the mods did not take care of an issue I told them about.


I have watched mods careless. One in particular. Probably because she is tired of my 'whiney-butt' complaints of someone breaking a 'unimportant' rule. All well. I guess I should talk to another mod then.

Okay, so I've done it a couple times. But seriously, it's not that big of a deal. It's just typing a few more words than you should; what's so wrong with that? And I've never seen people THINK that they can break ANY rule at all simply because we allowed them to roleplay a few more words. If they do it constantly, yes, tell us and we'll handle it. But every single time I've asked someone to stop, they've stopped. But it's impossible to stop all of them. It happens and we have to deal with it.

I hope that's not me you're talking about, because that's a lie. I do care if they've done it millions of times and refuse to listen, but I DON'T care if they only do it once. That's when I let it slide, because frankly, it's not that big of a deal to me...sorry to say.

I would say that I agree with you too Maya. Sometimes I see people role play in the shout box....It gets anoying because they're all, diong this wako stuff when im trying to talk to someone and it gets distracting. I think that the mods SHOULD be watching more closley... Some people can be pretty rude to others on the boxes, and th emods wont even know..

Yes, they should. And I do know they have their own lives and such. And I know not everyone is gonna listen. Thats why we have Mods. To warn people who are not following the rules. People will say thats unfair? Its not. Its not unfair to have people all follow the same rules. It really isnt.

Baltosource has grown bigger in the past and people have lives as well. And we are NOT able to serve every wish of every minority. We are NOT able to be on 24/7, and we WONT take what you´re doing here. A lot of people have thrown insults and other stuff at us, but that is the peak of the mountain. You know what? Cat, Salty and Loz are still SB mods. So why arent they here? Right, because PEOPLE HAVE LIFES. The whole SMS thing was just a camouflage for your whole harrasment here...

Let me guess, you got into something like a fight with someone and no one saw it? Congrats, the same happened to me when I wasn´t a moderator. But I didn´t blame the mods because I RESPECTED them R-E-S-P-E-C-T-E-D. Today we´re just a group of clowns in the eyes of the members. It´s different today, there is a lot more to supervise. We have 5 Shoutboxes to watch now, not just 2 like in the past. We also receive PMs with problems which aren´t just solved in 5 minutes. People are more active with posting than ever before, and if you don´t like their posts, use the "contacting a mod" function. However, we´ll see the problem immediately IF we are online. Keep in mind that we also have to watch the whole forum. It isn´t just about locking topics. I remember members who spammed more than a professional spambot, it takes time to delete all those messages. Same goes for banning people. I remember a lot of IP conflicts in the past. And now the cherry on the cerrycake, the rest of the site. Which includes the removal of useless comments and other stuff.

But do people care? No, they don´t even think about it I suppose. WE ARE HUMANS, the time we spend here is affected by our personal life. There are tests and exams at school to pass. Remember that most of the staff members are children who have parents. And they all have their own methods to school their childs. Means if they forbid the internet access to them, we have to take that. And if no one is there at present to ban a member for dropping an apple in the Shoutbox, then you have to take that.


You make me laugh. Histarically. Really. "Oh yeah, I wrote this to harass the mods. >D Its my goal in life." Eh, not really. I have better things to do. XD If I wanted to harass you, I wouldn't be able to do it here. To many 'big words' for the kiddies. XD Ha.

And no. I have not gotten into a fight with anyone, recently. Last fight I got into, I was nearly banned. And was warned that if I 'mod' again I will be banned, 'fur surrrre'. Yet, you sit here and tell me that YOU'D let me say something (As Axel does). I know Kayla did too. And this bothers me greatly too. Mods do things differently. They should all have the same basic rules. But they dont. I know this. And Danman, if you had read this, you might not have bothered writing most of that. (Or you might of, whatever floats yer boat).

See? I know most people have lives.

And I do know that Catadventure, Salty, and Lozzy are still mods. And I have seen Saltash on. Cat & Loz dont really come on though. Not like they used to. But honestly, who could blame them. I can't. And I know many others who dont.

Honesty, Danman, if I wanted to harass you, I would have. And I would have done a better job than this. I dont need to cover it up with 'SMS' and Roleplay in the shout box. I would straight out do so. And those who know me, would tell you the exact same thing. I ain't afraid to speak my mind, obviously.

I understand, but you say here that mods have been using SMS and also not doing anything about this.
Quote:
mean, the rules apply here and on the site. People speak SMS lang allllll the time. And all these people (INCLUDING MODS) are all like "YEAH ITS SO ANNOYING!".. Well, no one is doing anything. I tried, and nearly got banned for it. I wasn't being A 'mod'... I was reminding people of the rules, and that they'd get banned for it if they continue to break this rule (or rules). Well, it that makes ME a Mod wannabe, then FINE. You mod's aren't doing a good enough job.

I have sat there and WATCHED mod's break the rules - and watched them watch other people. I mean, it may not be a big deal to THEM, but these people are doing it CONSTANTLY.


I haven't seen many people use SMS that much as it is a rule not too, and I know if I encountered someone using it I would tell them to stop. And you say that people speak SMS all the time, including mods, but this remains to be seen. That is what confuses me, what mods have you seen using SMS?

Right, we all (the mods) are responsible for the SMS and roleplaying. I´ll stop at this point. Because I think it is obvious that you´re blaming the mods here. And the biggest thing that "floats my boat" is your enormous disrespect. You´re treading us like a mistake in the BS history. I´m not talking about single persons, I´m talking about us. As something like a team. Now you´re just trying to grade me down with comments like "Hihihi Danman I could harass you if I could XD". Do you really think I´m respecting you after that?


More people join BaltoSource, more Mods are obviously needed. You would think that more mods would make it better and I can't see anything going wrong with it. I agree with you Danman, all mods are a team, we seem to get along and work well together. I know I haven't been a mod for long, but everything seems peaceful in the 'mod world'. But to be quite honest we are only trying to help make this site better, so if we are trying to help there is no need to smack us down. All the mods here do their bit to help. Being disrespectful is just digging yourself in a hole.

I "third" that.
Yup this seems so under-rating, ya know? Sometimes... put yourself in our situation.. What would you DO? HOW would you feel? If someone comes up with a big topic like this and turns on everything. Like flames in Hell? hmm?
I gues you'd run away, or start quoting everything you've seen.. I seriously can't imagine why do you need to make this thread? Have you thinked if could you offense the others? Hmmm.. I quite feel offensed..because you Offensed my fellow mods... You said MODS..this includes ME TOO. Also It doesn't mather what section.. so yes.

Is Team Work what ya need? Okay Team work you will get.

And about the missing mods, I won't blame you. You can't force them to come if they aren't pleased to, they have their own lives to live. Or probably they left? Who knows?
Better way to find this out is asking them directly ;)

And Yes, backtalks are really annoying, and exactly saying about Salty and the others was backtalk;)

You must realise that nobody's perfect. And perfection is unreachable. Besides, we're humans, we can make mistakes.

And I got the RP thingy. But this thing is going WAY TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FAR.

No offense ;) I am expriming my oppinion.

Oh yus, and I guess this will have a never end.. if we keep quoting eachother.. and find a small error in each phrase, and judge it... sorry but it's the way I see it.

I mean to not offense anybody, and I side nobody..
I guess one of us will be thrown.. or make a check mate(like in chess) a small ending, cause this can't go further.. TOO MUCH.

*EDIT*
Oh and your beggining post... About "Too many mods site falling in pieces"
..Hmm.. I must say way back in summer-autumn(hmm August-October? XD)..when I began my SB fun(actually I am sb chatiting ..for a year..but then was when I went..progressively.. much) having was better I must say |: Not like after it were added mods.. but stuff went slowly worse.. with Fun Ranting, and all... hmmmmm But time changes, people also, we're a huge community... Imagine how will after a couple of years? Or at least.. One half year? .. How will be? if In the present, you seem like don't really are satisfied with the facts...

Thank you Deni! :wink: And your right, we may be mods but we are only human, so if we do make a mistake of any kind you really shouldn't take it that seriously. I agree, this topic will last for ever and I doubt anybody will get to the end of it.. :?
