This Mod Needs To Go

Balto122 · **Posted:** Thu Aug 26, 2010 11:56 pm

I am very upset. We're back on a very common page, character deactivation. I have been trying to activate a character for a little over a month.

1. "doesn't have a relation to balto universe" I admit that I forgot that, now after adding....

2. "elaborate relation to balto universe" Elaborate!? after adding that.....

3. "the necklace needs to go" !? what the frick!?

I'm trying to activate my character Robin who has a necklace (obviously) I am not going to take it away, sense it means loads to me. There is no reason to take it away! why cant she have a necklace!? it's the same thing as if a dog would wear a collar! and....

This moderator *noname* is the one who have been torturing me and many others without a apparent reason. This moderator should get a sharp warning, or be taken from the post as mod.

I need some explaining.

While I shan't comment on the rant itself; this should really have been PMed to the site Admin, I think.

Like UK said, this isn't the place for this kind of rant. Either you need to talk (politely) to Ara, or you can PM me.

EDIT:

I have gotten the reply from *noname* about when I asked her why the necklace "needs to go" her reply was:

Quote:

Accessories that are designed for humans cannot be used on wild animals.

1. She is listed as Wolfdog

2. Where in the rules does it say that?

PM a site admin, and talk to them about it. Like UK and Draco said before.

It doesn't.

Related to Balto : Fan characters should be connected to the Balto characters / universe. For example, you can invent the son of a character, a friend, a foe, etc... Or make a character connected for other reasons (places, universe, themes etc...) Official characters from other films/series are not accepted. Finally, the animals species and/or styles must be related to Balto. (exceptions can be allowed)

Used : Your character must be created for a reason : you must associate it to fanarts, fan images, fanfics, ... Unused characters will be disabled automatically after some time.

Complete : Complete : Your character must have one "headshot" drawing, one "detailed" drawing, a long description (at least 5 lines long) with such information : Age, Breed (if an animal), Personality, Likes, Dislikes, Background, ... You mustn't use photos but drawings.

Bad renders : Same as for fan images, badly recolored pictures of official characters (from same film or others) can be refused.

Your pets : You should avoid creating characters based on your pets. If you do, they must respect all the other rules (associated to creations sent, related to the universe, ...)

Unique : Your character must be creative and unique, as such you should avoid renders : prefer drawing the pictures of your characters yourself. The name also has to be unique : if someone already used it, add your username in parenthesis to your character name.

Really I think you should be able to put a necklace on your character. My sister puts one on one of our dogs. There's no reason that you shouldn't be able to put one on your character when there is nothing about it in the rules.

While I personally have never done any characters, and don't know much about that part of AS (yet), I am inclined to agree here with Tibb's interpretation. Fully.

Though I must concur with the mods who posted...perhaps this was better left to PMs to either the admin of the particular Source (I guess we're talking Balto Source), or at least an ATTEMPT to reason with the mod by PM.

But I do understand the frustration.

I would say the necklace is fine, but anything else like piercings is a bit much.

Like everyone else has said, you should have just took this to PMs.

I'm going to lock this for reasons posted in my post and above.
