So, while on the subject of abused powers and whatnot. Anyone feel like giving access to VbPlaza to me again?

Hold on, you gotta talk to one of the mods/admins in there.

Then you have to wait while they vote on it.

Then you have to wait until they've decided everyone has voted.

Then you have to wait until one of them FEELS like giving you back access.

So expect it to take 6-8 weeks.

[Fer!]

They do. But sprung is about the only active admin, so he pretty much had run of the board for a while, being top ranked and all. And then there's cosmic's little "I'm higher up than you, so what I say goes" thing. And now the admins are just wasting time fighting. While it may be funny, it also sucks hard.

Which is longer than I've been here

I forgot you're from October. But yes, I guess that time should be spent on dealing with the problem instead of fighting "because I'm older than you here."

I have no idea what that's like *tears off shirt* You want to touch this. I know you do.

Someday...someday...

They're all in sprung's basement. He wanted their "cookies". Which he shared with cookie monster. Who only wanted the cookies.

Eh, that reminded me of a crossover between Buffalo Bill and Cookie Monster.

You do that

Sure do! *downloads The Final Countdown*

A threesome between a shark, a t-rex, and ET. I can smell the adult entertainment award alread! Wait, why does it smell like ass? Dammit, this is the prop dildo I used in "The Gay after tomorrow"

I can see ET saying "ET phones HO" and using his psychical connection to get with the ladies.

Order something from China, I'm sure that the fried cat you ordered will be on your door before you having access to VBPlaza.

Funny, I have access to it and I haven't used it except for User Name changes.

People tend to forget that. And I agree. Unfortunately angry people never think rationally. It's always about "Me".

Someday...someday...

Keep dreaming *poses*

Why do I suddenly picture cookie standing over a hole saying "CCCOOOOKKKIIEEESS!!" while some girl cries?

I can see ET saying "ET phones HO" and using his psychical connection to get with the ladies.

You should see the scene with the viagra. "Hooommmeee". Also, his finger isn't the only thing that glows.

Also, the mothership door is a vagina.

So the problem isn't that I was made an admin, but that Cosmic did it without asking you? Shit dude, it's a good thing you were never around back in the day, because it happened all the time back then.

I really do think that you and Sprung ought to just chill. I get that this was unexpected, and that you're not cool with the idea that decisions are made without your input, but let's not make so much of it. Should I fail to do my job effectively, then I'll take whatever comes of it. Until such time as that should happen, and God forbid it doesn't, let's all try and get along. This isn't that big an issue.

Ah, yes, the good ol' days. The admins could both promote and ban whoever they wanted, and then the entire community had to go along with those decisions. I don't know about you, but I was never that fond of the dictatorship version of EP. I can see if you don't agree with me here, seeing as you were on the other side of the 'I'm going to ban Elmdor now' fence, but we've discussed pretty much every decision taken since me and Mikey were modded (roughly a year ago), and now you expect us to just go along with this? Theres no point for democracy when ignorance is celebrated..

Let's do some math now. How many members have said they're okay with the way you were admined? Seems to me as YOU and COSMIC are the only ones not frowning over COSMIC admining YOU.

vbPlaza? Never heard of it.

It's the new shop.

It lets you do shit like changing your username or making someone else's avatar porn.

I gave a bunch of gifts and changed some avatars. It was worth it.

Dude this cursorxp shit kicks ass. I got sounds ands hir when I click and badass ghost trails. Oh man this is great. /nerd

Well...I gotta go do finish some stuff.

People from the staff...really, chill. The forum needs you working together, so set you differences apart and fin a way to deal with whatever problem you may have.

Anyway...

May 2002 for the win.

You're biased.

[Cyberxion]

Ah, yes, the good ol' days. The admins could both promote and ban whoever they wanted, and then the entire community had to go along with those decisions.

Yeah, you go ahead and simplify things, especially as it's clear to me that you haven't bothered to read through the Mod Lounge archives before doing so.

FYI, it was never like that. Yeah, we made promotions based on our gut feelings from time to time, but none of them ever turned out to work against us. And that was a rare thing anyway. Still is. Perhaps had you guys done what needed to be done, it'd be even rarer still.

I don't know about you, but I was never that fond of the dictatorship version of EP.

Are you fucking kidding me? Not that I don't agree with you about dictatorship sucking ass, but how the fuck is making me an Admin comparable to that at all?
We're talking about one simple decision here. It became clear to Cosmic that you guys were either incapable or unwilling to handle things the way they needed to be handled, and as I was once an Admin, he gave me the means to throw my lot in and do what needs to be done once more.

I can see that being a kick in the ego. After all, the current staff seems to feel that extensive consultation and voting is a wortwhile substitute for just, y'know, doing shit. I can understand that not being consulted on this might sting a bit, especially to those who may have thought that they deserved a promotion ahead of me. Even so, you guys haven't even bothered to give me a chance to prove myself. You're apparently just jumping up my ass because your egos were hurt. Fuck that.

I can see if you don't agree with me here, seeing as you were on the other side of the 'I'm going to ban Elmdor now' fence, but we've discussed pretty much every decision taken since me and Mikey were modded (roughly a year ago), and now you expect us to just go along with this?

What the hell is the problem, really?

Hey, I respect your opinion, but I do believe in this case your opinion wasn't needed. At least not until there's reason to give it. If I should fail, then go ahead and tell me off. Until then, your opposition to me being made an admin will sorta come across as whining.

Let's do some math now. How many members have said they're okay with the way you were admined? Seems to me as YOU and COSMIC are the only ones not frowning over COSMIC admining YOU.

How many have remained quiet? How many have even come around since I've been admined? Just because you, Sprung and Mikey are being all pissy about it, that doesn't mean that everyone here is going to agree with you. You three just might be the only ones who have a bug up your asses about what's ultimately a non-issue.

Which really says something about you three, doesn't it?
