so can i get MotM alumni

I tell you what. If we ever have a "Member Who Repeatedly Asks For Name Changes And Then Asks For An Account To Be Removed So That He Can Avoid An Additional Name Change Only To Request The Post Count To Be Manually Added To The New Account" title, you'll be the first to be rewarded such a title. :P

is it possible for that to be in effect now?

Like I said, MOXIE. haha I'll let Dee and Michael (if he sees this) weight it. ;)

Hmmm, this could go either way, I hope michael doesn't take offense to the fact that I always call him Nadal.

dee is an awesome admin for bringing the smack down pew pew pew

juna trying to holla at dee

better hide cuz reidar about to get chu

fasho

Nah, I like my men of legal age.


Kevin, I can't make you MotM Alumni, but I could always move to the Banned group.

DO IT, dare you to ban me

You'll just make another account. We already have enough in the "Duplicate" group.

lol oh no, you never have enough, im beginning to bore of this username was well actually

I can't take offense to the fact that you think I'm a great tennis player.

BUT WHY!?!? why did you pull out and let Federer get his 15th???? albeit a very intense championship match

I was kinda in a hurry to get it over with, because some chick in the stands wanted to f*ck me.

oh damn, really?

Natalia is certainly doing great and so is TJ as a new Design Staff member! Everyone else is doing pretty good too.

That says a lot considering you're a very new member but thanks! :)

Cool story bro. You are in the wrong because I wasn't bashing anyone in the OP. If you wanted to get mad at people for flaming trolling member bashing you name it, you should have given out individual warnings. If you had been able read then you would have seen in the topic that it in no place bashed a createblog member. It was completely anonymous and aliased. Sound good fatsweetcheaks??

Also note that this is not against the TOS, as gorillas are not people (not counting the awesome band) and this can not be considered a personal attack. Thank you, back to culinary school, the taco bells around here have horrible burrito makers. I'd rather have a friendly and thin nurse to fill out my paperwork.

Oh and a legitimate complaint :] Diana (Hypnotique) acts immature and childish and posts inappropriate things from time to time. Her overly sexual behavior does not reflect well upon the moderating team and she has been noted to make pointless posts such as "Ugh." in a thread that clearly was created without malice and had potential for intellectual, albeit controversial, conversation.

Just 'cause there's nothing else interesting going on around here... completely anonymous?


it even says her names in the screen cap PMs, haha.

Isn't Diana kind of giving you all a break by just closing the topic and not handing warnings out all around?

If gorilla hadn't said she was going to flat out ignore me I'd have been civil with her.

Oh has steven has run out of more interesting insults other then the color of my skin and weight?

Anyway, twig when i said id ignore it is because no matter what you say to defend yourself, you still will not win the argument as the topic itself turned into personal attacks and so on and so forth.

Even if you meant "good" and "innocent" you can blame the other posters in the thread for having your little topic closed and besides, you had your little fun for a while before i stepped in so I dont see why you should take so much offense

again you can take this to PM and this time the "gorilla" might read it and possibly respond

I love how someone with 3 posts can make an endorsement like this

and they all accept it like it means something.

My self esteem is regulated by the amount of praise I get in Moderator Performance.

WTF rebs i used to look up to you............. that's just low

I haven't been the same since Kevin gave me gonorrhea.

I'm sorry, I really shouldn't have gone to Cancun....

Since when is this a rule? It's just that moderators are usually the ones that make it cause they're the ones that close the previous one.

I'm trying so hard not to say what I want to say to you right now, Thomas, because I'm all for turning over new leaves. You just make it so damn difficult for me not to lose my patience. You're bringing up petty feedbacks, now here and formerly in the mod changes thread. Bah. I'm stopping now.

I'll say this - this is the second, maybe third time that Joseph has jumped the gun on a new monthly topic. I don't think that a mod starting the topic is that big of a deal, but the month hadn't even turned over yet. That's mostly what Michael is addressing.

Michael is a racist!

It's not a "rule", just an unwritten, long-standing policy. I remember way back in July or August of 2005, when James-Kryo was still a mod, I started a new screenshots topic like one minute past midnight on the first of a month, and James chastised me for starting a new topic because it was one of the mod's duties. It's just an old tradition -- mostly for the reason you stated, in fact. A new "cyclical" topic (screenshots thread, Members' Photos, etc.) shouldn't be started until an old one is closed, and only mods can close topics, and if a mod closes an old topic he might as well start the new one...

Also, it's a policy that doesn't matter. You gotta pick your battles, man. You should read Paul Graham's essay "What You Can't Say" and really take it to heart. I mean, I'm not gonna go around warning people for starting new desktop screenshots threads, but it's just a long-standing courtesy to let a mod clean all that up.

I'm not saying that Michael's way out of line for closing the topic, I just didn't understand that "policy" of the only people that are allowed to create sequential topics are moderators. To me, it sounded like he was pretty much censoring Joseph, telling him that he's not allowed to post the new topic. And on a bigger scale, that members were losing posting privileges. I know for certain that I posted one or two new desktop threads, as well as Brandon, when neither of us had the privileges to close the previous one. It was only a question on how and why Michael said what he said.

^ lol



+s to rebs for straight up autobanning the brownsugar account

hey who was brownsugar, mom?

-Available in 6 flavors-

tell me :(

It rhymes with Bu-let.

It's not August so an August thread doesn't need to be made, yet. Even if it was a topic that hasn't been made before, people would point out it is still July. It's not that big of a deal, there are no rules about it. Blame the calender, not the mods.


brownsugar, y'all must be getting bored.

Out with the old. in with the new.

Good theory, but where's the "new"?

It's the internet, we can't have "new".

Tbh, I didn't really see it as a big deal nor was I aware of the fact that only moderators could make these threads which is why I let Joseph have his fun and keep his thread. It's not a huge deal. There are more important thing we should be concerned about. But I can understand the frustration.

i noticed how few moderators there are. i like that.

god when i was Head Staff there was only 2 heads, 2 admins and i wanna say like freakin' 14 to 17 forum moderators!!

I remember when a couple or so people would be hired for each of the support forums.

I just wanna say, Mike is doing a hell of a job on Head Staff.

hah YES!!

i approve

Hey mods... what are you going to do about this:

Then this is the best that a mod does, on the spot:
http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php...t&p=3231187



Yet this is the same mod that's quick to warn me if I call someone stupid

So what are we doing here?



And seriously, can you guys tell this girl that the wanna be JP look really doesn't fit her:


I can't even tell if this is a joke or if she's really that retarded.
