First reply and it's a good one.
Holly (Insurmountable) has been promoted to Administrator. Congrats. :)
Cheers :)
finally!
:D
congrats, Holly!
Thanks guys
Woot. Well deserved
woot woot go Holly
Geez what took so long. Congrats my dear :]
Thanks Elba, Mike, and Toya
Congratulations Holly.
Yay for Holly!
Congrats,
I don't pop on as much now, but this deserves a post. Holly has been working towards this for more than a year now. I don't know anyone on staff, aside from mona, who has been on this site longer. I feel as if some of you will be jealous because Holly did become an admin in an non-traditional manor (Stafft>Head Staff>Admin). If there are any of you who are harboring jealousy and feel as if you should have been an admin, realize that the traditions set here in createblog were points of failure. They forced the staff to hire people who played a game to the top. Hiring someone outside of tradition is one of the first of many steps that will change the face of your staff in a positive way.
Holly, I love you. I know you'll become a great mod, but only time can prove this to the members of cB. Show em' what your made of sunshine.
Josh
'grats, Holly. And Josh, I thought she was Head Staff. XD
*laughs
Yea I was head staff...to keep the tradition thing going. I mean I know it was quick and all and I apologize to anyone that things its unfair and that it happened way to fast. I know I have big shoes to fill from the past but I'll try my best If anyone has any issues with me what so ever anyone can feel free to bring it up with me or in the mod performance thread.
Thanks Angie, Alvin, and Rebs
So hey Rebs, are you back?
I don't think anyone's jealous cause there's no one to bitch her out for being hired.
Congrats, Holly!
Why did you report her post to me Steven? I asked her a simple question and she replied back o_O
:D
I found it mildly humorous.
Ooooo I was reported?!! YES! I feel like a bad girl now.
That reminds me of when I accidentally warned myself once. LOL
I just noticed that Holly's admin now! haha. Congrats dear
congrats holly! You'll be a fantastic admin
Wow, congrats to Holly for being promoted yet again.
Cool.
I think Sandra as a mod is bad for the community. She doesn't pay attention to other moderating comments made in a thread, and proceeds to close when she deems it close-worthy. She exercises poor judgment. Isn't this site supposed to be for the majority, not for the mods? Aren't they supposed to help the community? I think it was very apparent that the majority of people who had an opinion on that one lovely thread wanted it open, and also shared the same feeling that it wasn't hurting them. You want your comments in mod performance Sandraaa, well here they are :)
Please explain to me how doing something that goes against the majority of the community is beneficial to the site.
^Uhm, I think you meant to post that in performance?

psst. it's called "split topic"
But it's better in the other topic. Everybody checks it regularly.
psst. it's called merge topic.
Meant to put in performance. My bad. Ban me imho.
OMGOSHHHH.
HOLLY! Congrats!
lol thanks Lucy
Dang, I'm slow. Haven't been on a lot lately. CONGRATULATIONS HOLLY! Even though I knew it was coming. haha
HELLA late, but congrats, dear! :D :D :D You've doing mucho well. :]
davinci has stepped down from her administrator position.
Oo, mentor?
Nope.
why mona why?
??????????????????????????????????
Hmmm...
Full truth or half-truth? I'll miss you guys. <3
FULL
or half
-michael scofield squint-
Thanks for being here for cB when it needed it most! I hope that you decide to be a mentor so that we can get your valuable opinion.
^ She said she didn't want to be a mentor either. Look above But you'll be missed Mona, your a great person and I agree with Rebecca thats why she stayed around and she has a great heart for doing so
Aw, Mona!
Mona has left us, for shame.
cB just got lame.
Can Holly be tame?
Or will she get taken over by whom must not be name.
Either way, it's all the same.
For all that matters, I just came.
And it's not even about the fame.
Holly - dang it. I missed that post
bye mona!
Wow, I can't believe that happened! Good luck to Mona out there, and congratulations to Holly.
Aw, Mona, I'm sad to see you step down but (and I swear to God I say this to every single person ever but - ) stick around! Don't desert us completely, 'kay?
Moners I'll miss you. I knew it was coming, since you were "temporarily" coming back. You've been amazing. Even though that's an understatement. As long as you're still around
Die young and save yourself.
Nowai! That's a Brand New song?
TTLY!
I swear I know those lyrics and it's not a Brand New song.
It's Sic Transit Gloria. http://www.songmeanings.net/lyric.php?lid=3530822107858484882
I know what it is.
Maybe it's just because I havent listened to it in forever. Hold on, I'm downloading it.
Oh shit, that is it.
Weird.
Merged ^
and guys take it to a PM
Toya (freeflow) has been promoted back to her Head Staff position.
Congrats
LOL Sorry about earlier Holly.
YAY TOYA!!!! Congratulations!!!
aw mona yahhhhhhhhhhhhh toyaaaaaa
Congrats Toya
Aw, I'll miss Mona when she actually steps down from her Admin position.
Congratulations to Toya.
^ Yeah, Jusun has to do it.
Congrats, Toya. :D
D: mona seemed like she was on staff forever.
btw, Congrats Toya!!
I would like to welcome these few to the staff team, congratulations to all of them
People Staff:
Elba (Elba)
Josh (Uronacid)
JC (brooklyneast05)
Cristy (Synesthesia)
Design Staff:
Kara (alovesopure)
Trish (tripvertigo)
Sarah (S-majere)
Angie (SinfullySweet)
Congratulations!
Welcome!!! There are so many yellow usernames as of now.
Congrats to all whom were promoted!
yayyy
thanks. i'll try not to turn into a nazi. although i think i was known for that back in the day. but the good type of nazi! like funny-haha nazi!
imo close topics on people for being ugly
good idea. i'll get right on that.
kara should be head staff.
Congratulations, everyone.
Congrats Everyone
it's well deserved
IMO Cristy is too passive and is lacking in the humor department. Nothing personal, I just foresee her being quite strict and not very lenient.
WHAT'S SO FUNNY SPENCER?
WHAT'S NOT FUNNY TRISH?
IM GONNA ASSERT MY POWER ON YOUR FACE.
Design Staff don't have any powers. Ask Mike.
i have the power to assert my foot in your white ass.
That's mod abuse. Besides, I don't go in the design forums, so you can't do shit. Once again, ask Mike.
DIAF!
spamming imo.
At least I'm giving me than five word responses.
MOD ABUSE!
YAY NEW STAFFIES!
CONGRATSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS ERRBODY
ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!! Give her time Steven.
Wanting to buy
How about we get out of here and actually do our jobs.
what jobs? I work m-f
WTF JOSH AND HOLLY ARE DATING!
COUPLES SHOULDN'T BE ALLOWED ON STAFF! That's gross.
Does Holly being Admin make Josh the first lady?
let's make a former-mod performances thread.
Tung, I said the same thing to Trish.
Honestly,
People staff: JC, Josh
Design Staff: Angie, Trish
No offense to the others.
elba belongs on people staff. im not sure if josh was the best fit for people staff - but he does belong on staff.
congrats to...all? damn, i didn't even know who synesthesia was until she just got promo'd to staff.
and imo, kara should be head staff.
Each person deserved their position in my honest opinion. Also the average amount of people on staff is like 10 on people and design staff 4 head staff and at least 3 admins.
So I'm not seeing the problem
Shut up, you don't even know him.
YOU'RE RIGHT! My mistake.
Please, Elba, forgive me, for I have sinned. Ironic that you can text me to tell me that I got staff, but when it's reversed, it's the end of the fucking world.
Well I didn't put my own number on blast.
On blast would consist of people prank calling me and texting me, dumbass, yet you were the only one that ever did.
Whatever, Spencer. If you could just erase my number and not text me that'd be great. I know you don't ever text me, but today you did and I got shit for it.
Here, look. Tell Almond to shut the hell up and come read this. I fucking live in MISSOURI! 2353567457 hours away from you AND Elba. Stop being a jealous prick. I don't even know where she lives, nor have I ever met her. Get the plunger out of your ass and realize that you're not the only one that talks to her.
Guys, take it to PMs. This isn't the place.
Shut up. It's dealing with Elba getting staff which is moderator changes. Go back to hiding in the queue.
Well, it seems more like you talking about texting issues than her actually becoming a mod. Those types of things are better dealt with in PMs. I'm not being hostile.
Right, but like I've said many times before, without people posting, there is no point to a forum.
^That's a baby's logic, bud... You can do better.
And Elba's on staff! How exciting!
x
who are you?
^James
(look in introductions )
Aw, Mona's gone! Just saw the whole list... Did she not want to be a mentor at all? Sad times...
^No, she was a temp and I guess she was just ready to just step down. I can't exactly blame her, but its sad to see her gone. But I mean I'm sure she'll always check up on us
Oh, yeah I knew about the temp Admin status, that was all old stuff, but I had just assumed she would go back to being a mentor again, not just leave...
Sad-times. There shall be facebooking...
Fuck off, James. Your logic sucks most of the times, but you bitch about it to the point that people stop caring and give in. It was nice without you here and it shall remain that way.
-____-
Anyway. What happened to the new thread in Announcements for the new mods?
Poor Mona.. I really liked you on staff though. I hope all goes well. and congratulations to all the promotions made.
^ She was never demodded. Jusun has to do it.
I don't remember when but it started in the VIP lounge when OM's and OD's go their name colors changed. Then staff wanted it too. So now the colors change for the season or just for the heck of it.
Oh... well that's a let down.
Cool about the colours, though
>< Haha. Hi James.
stop with the bitching, both of you. jesus.
Yeah whatever, Design Staff.
DONT MAKE ME MOD ABUSE YOU.
DON'T MOD ABUSE ME, BRO!
haha i lol'd so hard.
Why?
Congratulations, all.
Thanks everyone. sorry I haven't been on.
edit: wow, I'm a jerk. CONGRATS EVERYONE!
I'm happy to see a lot of you on staff.
Just want to point out that I really dont have to 'act' superior to you, Spencer. But yeah, let's drop it.
Once again because bitching is so much more attractive.
Hey Spencer, do you always have to have the last word?
Yes
Do you have to stick your nose into everything?
Guys guys... take this to PM. I'm serious.
PFfFFtttthahaHaAHAHHAhaHhahaHhaHaHAHahhaha.a... XD
seriously this is pointless bickering. it's not even funny.
Yep yep, take it to PM. It's getting lame now. :P
there was a hiring thread? o0o cool idk w/e congrats ELBAAAAAAA
^ Not really, but sorta. There wasn't a hiring thread for applications, no one sent any apps.
It was mainly - Community said who they would like to see on staff, and staff discussed the 'nominations'.
Congratulations to Kara (alovesopure) for being promoted to Head Staff.
^ I was originally, but stepped down (because of Suzzette). Then I was put back on as Design Staff. =]
Thanks Holly and Thomas.
Congradumalations, Kara.
Congrats Kara
SQUEEEEEEEE!
'Gratz, Kara. :D
Cheyeah! Head Staff has never looked so sexy :)
Congrats Kara, I'm glad you got what you deserve. :]
yahhhhhhhhhh karaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Congrats to Trish (sweetasphyxia) for being promoted to Head Staff
YAYAYAYAYAY. Make her admin.
Congrats, Trish.
Congratulations Trish!
Congrats to JC (brooklyneast05) for being promoted to Head Staff
YAYAYAY
affirmative action, imo
w00t w00t.
Wow, congratulations to Trish and JC!
OOoh congrats to both.
Wow, I think this is the most Head Staff we've had. But I guess you need to be Head Staff before Admin. So it won't be for long.
Why is there so much head staff?
Because we need another admin
Psst. The CB FAQs, Mod Changes, and the contact list in The Lounge need to be edited.
^mod changes is done...yet why the contact list in the lounge?
Because it says which position they hold next to their names.
Oh yea, they never put their info in there... FAQ's have been updated
Thank you for reminding me.
TRISH AND JC? ZOMG. Brother got promoted!
we have to have someone black higher up on staff, other wise we look racially intolerant. with suzzette gone, someone needs to take that place.
Honestly, JC doesn't count as Black. He is nigwhite? >< Suzzette was perfect for the job, till she went mental.
With that said, the Headstaff team is still racist!!
Toya.
Suzzette was horrible for the job, that's why we had our whole crusade against her. She was power hungry, manipulative, and didn't care what anyone else had to say. That's something I like about Holly, she listens.
I thought she took things too personal but to me, she did a good job. Then again, I was practically never there to notice her pre-crazy symptoms.
You never were "behind the scenes" with her, nor did you try to reason with her on thigs she didn't like.
Although, some PMs she sent me made me go like: hyppoooocrrittteee. But I never brought them up when her cover blew. I didn't want to get involved.
You guys should have seen her in the Boardroom. She'd get soooooo mad over everything that didn't go her way...
She talked to me on aim about them, she really wasn't that angry she said, its just if she never used smilies you would get all over her ass about it and then when she used smilies everyone was still all over her ass about it.
It was a lose lose situation for her. Shes gone now and I don't really think there is a need to talk about her anymore guys.
Thanks Steven, I enjoy listening to everyone's thoughts and taking them in to consideration. Everyone has their flaws though.
thank u
I'd like to thank I had a small part in this trish AND jc!!!
No...
^.~
uh...ok.
Congrats to Rebecca (superstitious) on being promoted to Mentor
yay! congrats!
Congrats, Ruhbecka.
Thanks guys :)
Go, Rebs!
=3
Yayyyyyy Rebecca!
Sandra (Sandraaa) has stepped down from her People staff position
... -awaits cheers-
^Read the post backstage she made o_O
I hope you still stick around, though, Sandra!
O_o Thanks guys. -high fives-
Edit// I'm not quitting cB. Far from that. Tee hee.
Moderator has changed her username to LoveToMySilas.
Maybe now people won't think I'm a guy. The username isn't exactly self explanatory anymore. But if you wanna hear the story behind it, do feel free to PM. Well, this is gonna take some time to get used to.
I think you should post the story behind the name here. It's really unusual - reminds my of my uni text - Silas Marner.
Buh Bye Sandra. (Since you can't read backstage)
I have no idea what it means, but cool name Jane. lol.
That's uh...unusual Jane
I dig.
You never told me who Silas was.
I only know the one from Weeds.
Isn't that story behind your name a good way to scare guys away?
No! Thanks a lot! Just kidding. :)
Haha! Aww, Jane. I've named my future kids already too...
AWW Y'ALL ARE CONVERSING! I WANT TO KNOW WHO STEPS DOWN OR WHO GETS HIRED!
NO ONE HAS STEPPED DOWN OR BEEN HIRED, IT'S JUST THAT JANE CHANGED HER USERNAME. :D
STOP HAVING A SENSE OF HUMOR ITS CHANGING MY OUTLOOK ON YOU!
I'M SORRY IF I'M NOT WTB A SENSE OF HUMOR ANYMORE!
STOP YELLING AT EACH OTHER!
I DON'T KNOW ABOUT STEVEN, BUT I'M NOT REALLY YELLING. JUST GOING ALONG WITH HIS ALL-CAPS TYPING. I'll quiet down though.
Jeez, I've missed a bit.
YAY REBS! Bye Sandra :(
Jane, I like your new username.
//random
Regretfully, SinfullySweet (Angie) has decided to step down from her position as Design Staff Moderator.
Good luck in college, Angie!
Aw, Bye Angie.
Aww... hope to still see you around Angie!
Bye Angie.
Good luck with everything Angeline.
Libertie (Dani) has been promoted from mentor to Design Staff.
Congratulations.
is that really a promotion?
Well if you want to be technical about it..
Dani has been moved from mentor to Design staff.
Dani (Libertie) has been demoted from Mentor to Design Staff.
Haha! Congratulations (or commiserations) Dani!
Dani (Libertie) has gracefully accepted a opportunity to be on design staff.
=]
LOL you guys. Demoted, Dani? Seriously? hahaha Congratulations!
UH no.. Dani asked to move to Design staff.
Mike (IVIike) is going to be taken down from his Design Staff status for a month to take the time to think about what he did and to contact the artists that he can find their work to.
After a month (February 8th, 2008 9:00AM EST) he'll be reviewed by the new admins and they will decide if he can come back to the staff team or not.
Thank you.
Congrats, Dani. :)
Dani, don't be silly, it's hardly a demotion.
Mucho love.
Congrats to Trish (sweetasphyxia) for being promoted to Admin.
Jusun will also be our 3rd admin, and at the end of the month I will be stepping down and being replaced by someone new.
Congrats once again.
Holly (Insurmountable) is stepping down from her Admin position.
Wow, awesome. Congratulations
Congratulations, Trish. I know you will be awesome.
Congratulations to Dani as well. The Design Staff is SO lucky to have you. =)
Does this mean that Jusun will be taking a more active role?
Hmm probably. I think he wants to get some things with cB done.
Congrats, Trish!
And yay, Ju-Sun! I hope you'll be around more now.
This will sound odd, but congratulations to Mona for being an Official Member now. :P
In a round about way, it kind of was.
SIEG HIEL
Holly, why did you step down? If you don't mind me asking.
thanks!
Congrats, Trish! :D
Oh em gee, a ninja did become an admin.
2 Members: sweetasphyxia, tungmyBANANA
sup tung
^ That's old news. Holly stepped down today.
Tung, hiii.
Wow, so many adjustments in such a small amount of time.
Congratulations, Trish, for being promoted. I hope the ones who chose to step down stay as active community members.
Woah! I just noticed this. Congrats to Trish and whoever else is replacing Holly.
Good luck Holly! I promise I will mail you a letter soon :3
I already said this Backstage, but congrats to Trish again. :]
It'll be cool to have Jusun around more since he's hardly ever here.
And Holly, it was good have you as our Admin.
Congrats Trish!
Sang (Relentless) has been promoted to Design Staff. Congratulations!
Woo. Congrats! :D
Congratulations!
Congratulations Sang. Welcome to the team. =)
congrats sir sang
Congratulations!
Warm welcomes, Sang!
Sang, this is so exciting!
Gee thanks I'll remember to let the 8 hours continue next time.
OMG CONGRATSSSS SANG! :D :D :D
Congratulations to Trish and Sang. Well deserved promotions to you both.
Sang Sang Sang
x10000000
because i'm stressed out and have a lot going on the next few weeks i'm stepping down from staff. i hope this will just be a "break" and i can possibly come back to staff next month if things are going better and the staff is ok with that. either way i guess i'll see what things are like then. i'll be around.
aww..bye jc ]:
our alliance is dying, toya...
I know. We can always use temporary JC instead of the real one!
Good luck with everything.
