Your opinion of createblog in its current state...Members, Admins, Environment, Etc. Options

[DoubleJ]

I personally think that it has turned into emo central. With the exception of a few people here and there, everybody else is making this their lives. Get over yourself por favor. By the by I happen to love CB!

[missnh]

ummm.... I think it's the same? Interesting when I'm avoiding homework. ^_^

[EddieV]

Different people, more annoying drama.

[DoubleJ]

ummm.... I think it's the same? Interesting when I'm avoiding homework. ^_^

Lol I like that one.

[Insurmountable]

I don't see the emo-ness? Createblog is in no way my life, in the past I remember taking things way to seriously and it led me to just be hated by most people. I came back and I really could care less about the drama and what not. I'm calm with the things going on currently and I'm trying to work everything out so everyone is on the same terms with things.

[brooklyneast05]

createblog is the same as always, half the people whine and cry, and the other half tell them to grow up

Good these are the things I like to hear. Although I have been here for only a short time, I must admit I look forward to talking to people on here all the time. It just gets to a point with others that it is like stfu already.

[EddieV]

and the other half tell them to grow up

or make fun of them.

[DoubleJ]

or make fun of them.

This is indeed true.

[markmejia]

CreateBlog is merely a big part of my Internet life. :P So I don't really depend on it, though it would be pretty sad to see it just die or whatever.

But yeah. Too many annoying noobs. -__-

[Insurmountable]

After a while you get use to the annoying people, its an usual thing.. most of the time they just start to blend in with all the other members. Just have to give them some time. Although I do have to say there is that handfull of people that just don't ever change... and of course the community makes fun of them..they feed off the attention until the members come to the conclusion that they should just ignore them..and the end.

[ipetpandas]

I missed the older cb days, back in 04, 05?

[EddieV]

^ I do agree with you, uh who're you? lmao.

[DoubleJ]

^ That is what Sulfur just said to me.

[ipetpandas]

A ninja.

[Insurmountable]

I like change. I mean you guys can complain and whine about how much you miss the old days..but you have to accept that the old days aren't coming back.

I think createblog is doing great, and even greater for still being around and active.

Oh yeah. The most annoying ones - the attention whores. Gah.

[1angel3]

I don't hate cb. I love it.

I think CB is better than myspace. Yeah I said it! FTW!

[EddieV]

Facebook > Myspace

[DoubleJ]

Facebook > Myspace

I second that.

[hypnotique]

I like the Kinkyness to it.

[karmakiller]

aaah omigawsh someone on cb said i looked funnah and made fun of tha way i type on herezzzz. imma go cry.


Some people are annoying, but I think we're doing fine. I don't notice any emo people, though, haha.

[ersatz]

Fucking ridiculous.

[EddieV]

Notice though how most of the very new members post on relationships first.

[missnh]

Fucking ridiculous.

YOU SAID FUCKING!

[ersatz]

YUP!

[hypnotique]

YOU SAID FUCKING!

OMG THATS NOT PG-13

[EddieV]

Yes it's not.

Reported.

[DoubleJ]

Yes it's not.

Reported.

Did you really report that?

[ersatz]

I'm sure he's joking....

[EddieV]

For those that know me, of course I didn't.

[hypnotique]

No he did not report it cause if he did id snipe his ass for wasting my inbox space

[EddieV]

^ No you won't, cuz that would mean NO SEX FOR YOU!!!!

[shadowfax]

I think createblog is doing great, and even greater for still being around and active.

If you meant the CC, it's because of the drama, not because the members are great (overall), or that the atmosphere is friendly, or that the conversation is worthwhile.

[Insurmountable]

I think in some parts of the community center there is conversation and its nice to have it. Like debate..

The resource center is still active

[*Steven*]

I think cB is the same as always. The mods think they can run everything we do on this site, and they decide to make new rules/regulations regardless of how much objection there is to it and how stupid it is. Also the mods are the same as always in regards to the most active ones being strict and not fun at all.

I'm going to have to agree with Sammi, this place is getting pretty f**king ridiculous.

[hypnotique]

^ No you won't, cuz that would mean NO SEX FOR YOU!!!!

OK OK OK ILL BE GOOD

[tokyo-rose]

I think CB is better than myspace. Yeah I said it! FTW!

Facebook > Myspace

CreateBlog is not really comparable to MySpace or Facebook since it's a forum, not a social networking site.

I don't know how cB suddenly got so out of control. I know it's always had its share of cliques and e-drama, but now everyone's leaving and getting into so many more fights than usual; it's ridiculous.

[MissFits]

I think everyone is taking this too seriously.
CB is fine. Everywhere you go (on the internet and in real life) you will find dumb, rude, annoying, and offensive people. In the same places you will find kind, caring, funny, and interesting people. If you avoid/bash every place where the dumb, rude, annoying, and offensive people dwell you will never find any of the kind, caring, funny, and interesting people because you will have isolate yourself.

In short, let it f**king go. Quit being pussies and understand that people are different. Do you honestly think it would be interesting here if everyone followed every rule and acted just like everyone else?

[EddieV]

Sometimes, I believe it's the action and drama that keeps it going, it would be pretty boring if people just go happy all the time. But things do get ridiculous at times.

[brooklyneast05]

Also the mods are the same as always in regards to the most active ones being strict and not fun at all.

then why's everyone bitching so much about tung being so far out of hand. i duno what people want, i've never been strict and now i've been told that i should have known things were out of hand without anyone giving me a heads up they were offended.

i don't get what to do about that

[DoubleJ]

Some of these people on here just need to have sex and get it over with. We should have a big CB orgy! LMAO! FTW!

[EddieV]

0_0 That would be insane.

[*Steven*]

Tung deserved w/e y'all deemed necesary. He went through all his shit without even getting a verbal warning. I say I think someone's a piece of shit (who won't even be returning) and I get a verbal warning. No sexual implications, no sexual PM's to others, nothing. I'm not criticizing all mods, and I'll say that I think you and Elba are doing just fine. Regardless, people need to grow up and not get their butt hurt.

[ersatz]

Having a sense of humor is one thing, joking with friends is one thing, posting obscene pictures once in a while is one thing, but it got to the point where I didn't see one post of his without him insulting someone else. When someone is visibly offending or hurting or harassing someone else, that's when you do something about it. If someone bothered you all the time about how ugly you were or how stupid you were or whatever in like, every topic, you would be pretty bothered, wouldn't you? Just think of it in terms of your general person...he didn't need a harsh punishment or anything, but it should have been recognized and acknowledged as bad before it got that far. Like once you see it happening several times, it needs an, "OK, cut it out now, dude."

[tokyo-rose]

In short, let it f**king go. Quit being pussies and understand that people are different. Do you honestly think it would be interesting here if everyone followed every rule and acted just like everyone else?

I don't think anyone is asking everyone else to follow the rules completely. In fact, most members don't want that because of how bland it would make cB. But if people could at least try to be civil to each other, curb their urge to bash others, not call others pieces of shit/crap, etc. then things would be much better.

[Insurmountable]

If you guys think this place is so effing ridiculous, then why do you always come back?

[*Steven*]

Some of these people on here just need to have sex and get it over with. We should have a big CB orgy! LMAO! FTW!

OMG LOL YOURE SO FUNNY LETS PULL THE PEOPLE NEED TO GET A LIFE AND HAVE SEX CARD!

[ersatz]

I never left. And I never said the ridiculousness wasn't entertaining. I'm not involved so it's not hurting me. It's still ridiculous.

[*Steven*]

If you guys think this place is so effing ridiculous, then why do you always come back?

What an amazing attitude :)

[DoubleJ]

I think JC and Eddie summed it up perfectly for me when I first started out on here. I posted a topic and got upset when Jeanna was coming down my throat and they told me: It is a public place and you aren't going to like what people say. If you aren't going to like what people have to say then you shouldn't post on the forums. That was when I realized that it is not that serious and it should be up to the individual to make it a good experience for themselves.

[shadowfax]

I think in some parts of the community center there is conversation and its nice to have it. Like debate..

The resource center is still active

Of course the RC is active; it always will be but what makes people come back to the CC as a whole? Stupid drama or the other stuff I listed?

[hypnotique]

Some of these people on here just need to have sex and get it over with. We should have a big CB orgy! LMAO! FTW!

You earned this.

[brooklyneast05]

well i'm in agreement with that, obviously, since i read that and didn't give u a verbal warning. i haven't heard josh out or anything so i guess i'll wait to see his reasoning

i agree with holly, the staff needs to decide what's ok and what's not i guess. i'm going off personal judgment, but once again, i'm not someone who thinks people should get all that offended around here. so i don't know

[EddieV]

You earned this.

I won't be able to see that till I get home.

[transcendentalis...]

well, we've done much better than blogring. that makes cb decent.

there are tons of people with brilliant talent and personality on here that are worth getting to know, and everyone's got their flaws... so if anyone else complains about holly being a pushover or someone being a hypocrite, i'm sure there's something about you that makes you imperfect as well so STFU BITCHES.

then we have our morons, but some of them are entertaning enough to make fun of.

[MissFits]

But if people could at least try to be civil to each other, curb their urge to bash others, not call others pieces of shit/crap, etc. then things would be much better.

Some urges are just too strong. I know I have bashed a member or two in debates or heated discussions. It's not something I do everyday but, everyone does it at least a few times in their life.
Some people just deserve it, and if you (not you personally, but people being bashed) can't handle it then you are too weak. That's all just my opinion though.

[EddieV]

It seems that once one type of person leaves, someone always comes to replace her/him.

[tokyo-rose]

so if anyone else complains about holly being a pushover or someone being a hypocrite, i'm sure there's something about you that makes you imperfect as well so STFU BITCHES.

Everyone is hypocritical to some degree even if they don't show it or don't like to admit it. No one should use "At least I'm not a hypocrite" to defend themselves on this site.

[transcendentalis...]

^exactly, so i don't see why everyone makes such a big deal out of it usually - i'm talking about human flaws.

[synthase]

n00bs annoying me. But hey, everyone here used to be a noob as well! So we can't really argue.

I'm getting pissed about the layout thing. Back then, MOST layouts that were submitted were pretty decent..now most of them are just flooding in and making my eyes bleed. With the exception of few.

[hypnotique]

[shadowfax]

^McDonalds colors? :x

[EddieV]

HEY! I like!

[transcendentalis...]

where is arjuna? :( he had THE best images, ever.. and i don't just mean his photography.

[EddieV]

He's a mentor now I believe.

[DoubleJ]

Hella cool!




ANYWHO!


This thing has really taken on a life of it's own. Words aren't even good enough anymore. Some admins need to just stick to being one way all the time instead of making exceptions when they see fit. That's what I think leads to alot of the chaos. Also there need to be more admins and staff because I swear I see like the same 7 or 8 staff all the damn time. If you had like 20 people actively patrolling and making it a good place and just interacting with people and blah blah blah it would be cool.

[transcendentalis...]

^i don't think we have 20 badasses.

i guess i'm just looking in the wrong parts of the community center then? :(

[hypnotique]

Yeah i borrowed that from arjuna lol.

[transcendentalis...]

i think we need more mods like diana, haha. she seems to get on with the community and she's able to be lenient without letting things get completely out of hand.

elba too.
i still say steven michelle and spencer should be on staff, fershure. i don't see michelle too often on here, but i don't see how anyone can say she was a bad mod.

i think my posts are starting to turn into mod performance, hmm.

So, what are we trying to accomplish again? Consistency? Leniency?

[shadowfax]

Hasn't it been TOO lenient lately? That's the way I see it.

[missnh]

I thought it was too lenient with some, too strict with others = inconsistent.

i got attacked by a folding chair once. it bit me on the shin.

i don't think there is a way to be totally consistent at all. everyone has different opinions on if something is lenient or strict, and someone is always going to complain how "this was too lenient, this was too strict". if we're really going to go all psychotic and try to please everyone, we might as well set up cb court to determine whether each and every action (moving topics, closing topics, merging topics, warning, banning, suspending, whatever!) was deserved or not, with a ginormous variety of members... which still would cause a lot of dissatisfaction.

fail :(

jc - as much as i would love to have you as a judge - honestly, because i think you're a very competent person - the 'jury' would need to represent all or at least most of cb, and there's not much of a way to do that unless we start literally putting lists of people down for cliques, haha.
