yay my first dramatic incident.

i'm sorry if rejecting your graphic is offending you in any way but; it isn't up to the standards of cb. everyone gets their rejects and accepts.

edit;

oh yeah congrats to everyone else i was too busy choking on oreo to say this before. :D

I told you that I understood that. I never bad mouthed you and I'm not offended. Just leave me alone please >.<

yes some of you probaby haven't even heard of me but maybe it's because you don't visit the "tutorials" section of cB that much to know that. i have about 70 photoshop tutorials. i also comment on new graphics i see get accepted on here. yes my total number of posts may be low as of right now but i am working on that. it does say that i am most active in forum games but that was a loooooooong time ago. i have stopped posting in the forum games. now i try & focus on the designer's cafe & graphics help sections. when i was posting in the forum games section of the forums, i did not have the intent to apply for staff. however, i was chosen & am happy & will therefore do my best to help out cB.

the resource center has nothing to do with CC.


btw, this is really great. you guys hire someone who looks down on everyone, someone who's a pushover, someone who quit cb (or so I heard), and someone who no one f**king knows. absolutely lovely.

I just realized that CC was community center lmao!

And to top that, people who tell you to fix one thing on your pics... so you do...then after that they tell you to fix something elsee... then after ALL that... they say its not good enough. Then you inform them just stop talking to you about it I won't submit anything for a while after this... and they still talk to you. Maybe I won't continue to be a member here as I had planned.

I wouldn't go that far. I would just say to be persistent, and ask around, before you submit stuff. I see a few people doing it, and I think that it really helps to get opinions before you submit thing imo. I would hate to see you leave because of that though.

I did ask... I am not new to graphics, I have surfed this site a long time before I joined... in anycase would be a shame eh.

yeah, i totally agree.
if you want some feedback on anything before you submit it, post a new topic in the Showcase Booth

I think that it definitely would be a shame. I mean I guess I would say to just remain persistent and what not.

you cannot delete your account. one of the admins has to do that. but if you do not want to contribute to cB anymore, just stop using your account.
tokyo-rose
You can't delete your account, and administrators don't do it either. If you don't want to use your account anymore, just abandon it and don't sign in from now on. But really, you shouldn't leave just because of this one incident. Perhaps the graphic you resubmitted really isn't up to CreateBlog's standards and would have been rejected by any other Design Staff/Head Staff/Administrator. If there's anything more you'd like to say about this, please post in Moderator Performance in Feedback. This topic is getting a bit cluttered.
misoshiru
and i totally love how the new staff is already driving away new members. good job. keep up the hard work.

That is pretty lame... I would think that you should personally have the option of deleting your account.

Seriously, I want a f**king recount. The process was biased against me to begin with as the mods refused to add me to the list of candidates even after repeated requests.

There's going to be hell to pay.

oook.
well just because i said i have a lot of photoshop tutorials doesn't mean i look down on everyone else. i never meant it in that way. i said that because that is where most people know me from. & who said i quit?! i have never quit cB. i have been very active ever since i made an account here. also, just because "no one knows me" doesn't mean that would affect my chances of getting on staff, which it didn't. i was chosen because of something the admins saw in me; not because of my "popularity."
Tung
lol it seems manny is more of a design staff material then people staff. i'm appalled that it took three long weeks, and to not know this. she belongs in design staff, not people staff.

Yanlin wasn't referring to you in each one of her descriptions; she was referring to different people. o_O She only meant that you're the one that not many people knew.

it's just that almost every post in this topic seems to be about me & how they disagree with me being put on staff.

To thefourpanedwindow - I hope you aren't discouraged over a couple of your graphics getting rejected. I'm not trying to beat a dead horse here, but in a lot of cases, a staff member is not trying to be with their responses; instead they're trying to be helpful. If it's not helpful, you're always welcome to PM another staff member instead. I'm sorry you feel like you need to delete your account so soon, but I appreciate you letting us know what we're doing wrong. Is there any way I can help, though?

congrats to everyone!! flowers.gif

to be completely honest, i thought manny would be hired as design staff because i really do like all the tutorials she's contributed. hmm.


maybe we should just clear this up~

manny-the-dino-would you be more comfortable being on design staff? because it sure seems like a lot of people (including me) feel like you would be a better staff member there.
superstitious
xD I truly appreciate how direct you are, Teesa.

I was surprised to see her on the PS list, not the DS list. But, as I mentioned a bit ago, something came up this weekend and I haven't really been around for a couple of days.

Ah I can't really think of anything... I did mention my no delete account complaints in the feedback area... along with one other thing. Thanks for replying to what I said before though [:

to be honest, i really don't have a preference as to what staff i am on. the main reason why i said i'd go for people staff was because i read somewhere in the forums that i would have to contribute layouts &/or have layout coding knowledge. i dk if that was true or not but that was the main reason why.
but maybe i am better off being on design staff? shrug.gif

i don't think you should have done that because (well, maybe you didn't realize this) people staffers really have to be the most active in the community center and interact with members there.

That being said...

QUOTE(SkyliteX @ May 5 2008, 02:09 AM) *
actually manny - the- dino is very active on the forums, I always see her replies, mostly introductions, I think she would be great, but I personally though Melie should have have people staff and Manny get design staff . but thats just my opinion. :]


Who the hell are you?

And manny, will you PLEASE stop editing your post with annoying fonts? Especially now that you're people staff and people actually have to read your posts. It's a real strain on the eyes.
brooklyneast05
i don't get why natalie got put on people staff, when design staff seems the obvious choice. especially since she seems to be under the impression that as people staff she would have to contribute like a design staff. so it seems kinda like she thought something different than the actual job. did you guys even talk to her before you decided her position blink.gif

either way, if she's on people and should be on design, it's not her fault. she didn't put herself there.

exactly. besides, i don't remember the actual hiring thread mentioning specific requirements of people staff, design staff, etc., so i can see people being confused when applying. although, that confusion should definitely have been cleared up during the interviewing (like jc mentioned)

but i think i am going to be put on design staff. it's just not "official" yet.


is this better?

I am sorry, but I think that it is fairly obvious what the difference between people and design staff is.

to you maybe (and to a lot of us as well), but clearly, one person was confused.
brooklyneast05
i actually don't think it's that obvious to someone who's not on the boards that much. if you went to a website based in design, why would you think that there was a staff that had nothing to do with design? shrugs.


edit:

either way, like we said that should have been cleared up by the staff i guess.

I thought that the hiring process died or something and then I just began to lurk around anonymously; I didn't really have anything to say. AND TODAY freaking random email about me getting a personal message etc etc.

anyways I guess I'll try out this "probation period" and see if dandy things come out of it.
Elba
I am sorry to manny-the-dino because it's not her fault they decided to just place her in PS. I have no problem with her in DS. Now, who's going to take her spot on PS? Nicki should, because Nicki should have been hired over her to begin with. Or Tung. Or whoever else didn't step down.
Melie
congrats to the new staff members!
