Couldn't he have done that notbeing a Mod, just wondering cause his section was suposed to be Newsgroups and as far as i know the only change has been an NZB posted designed by Rossco.

Drawing new members include seeding stuff with our URl name and seeding stuff we have done on sites, last time i checked you don't need to be a mod to do that.

Not trying to be harsh towards him just asking what he's done that he couldn't have done if he was just a normal member who had the ftp axx and the ability to seed,.

---

Umm, name one member who can access the admincp, name one member who has access to the ftp.
How could reality do what he's done if he was a member. :blink:
I don't understand what you're getting at...

But has he done alot using his moderator powers or because he was only one who knew how to make a torrent :unsure:

No, what im saying is he hasn;t done any moderating, Brian could have just given him the FTP details as a member.

I think the reason people see him as a minor team member was because he was appointed on a tempary basis to get the newsgroup section setup, 6 months down the line the only thing thats changed is you have coded an NZB poster.

Afronaut is GS :P

Reality isnt CP

:huh:

it was Reality > CP, which I think is a hit against CornerPockets absences. CornerPocket has had some personal issues to take care of by the way, and does drop a line in team chat from time to time, so please excuse his not being here right now :cool:

I think manrod has his mods mixed up.
Those who were there when CP left know perfectly why he left and would certainly never dare to mock him.

I know.

Just taking teh piss. I looked at the mod list this morning, trying to uncover just who these strange orange people were and noticed that Cornerpocket was a mod.

He's made like 25 posts in the last year. RealitY's definitely done more than that dude - so I thought I'd be a bit magnanimous, like.

Ah, I see.

I wasn't aware of any mitigating circumstances, so apologies.

Then a cookie...right? :lol:

Peace bd

This is so far off topic that Ide like a cookie now also. As for my original post that started all this I was quoting rossco and not a member intentionally and the fact is it may have appeared a bit harsh but managed to stir 10 pages of *call it what you will* if nothing else. Ive always found the no smiley approach rather dry and to my liking.

Ive just noticed though that its a bit ironic though seeing all the frustration that manker had taken to it though as it reminded me of just a short time ago of having the same frustrations toward a former of the board. However even at issues I would think to be much more intense I dont remember pitching name calling about although if you dig back I may be wrong.

The point is I hardly intend to be as such nor am I and on my last public debate even though I may have been at odds with Cheese and SnnY I actually took at lot of what was brought up into what became the final product and what was represented on the same topic in Team chat also.

@manker I cant imagine you took any of the pokes I had at you to seriously as its obviously a running joke around here to tell manker to STFU so I thought I was well over due to jump and see what all the hype was about and found it entertaining.

@Peerzy I hardly have to justify to you what I do on the board while in Admin panel or on the FTP or what I do as a Mod for that matter although I will tell you I spend hours here on many days working on things for the board. Im not sure who would pass your standards anyway at that rate. Maybe you should consider not being such a critic of nothing and could take some additional time to work on your more well known talent of your n00b bashing skills since you can barely do that right these days...

/me yet again manages the no use policy of smileys

Probably there would be more people coming and signing up in FST and posting, if there would be less bashing at posters. Guess may not want to register when they read some of the "fireworks" that is expressed in some of the messages throughout some threads. :lookaroun

Good point. Irrelevant around here im afraid. Folks are on each others hair all the time,
I guess its the heat atm.
:P

Some folks consider the flaming arguments as teh fun part of this.
(bashing new ppl is concidered extrememly rude, imo)
I think its just a matter of learning to ignore the unimportant bits.
After sometime you'll learn who posts BS and who has actually something to say, so to speak.
:D

A couple of tips:

dont take everything to heart/seriously, its teh internjet

do not believe everything you read, there's trolls/troll2 about

Also, Thirty - Eight Ways to Win an Argument
from Schopenhauer's "The Art of Controversy"
could be usefull, if arguing is teh shitz for you.

Hope that'll help, ask if anything.
Someone will help you about.

Afronaut just about hit it on the head...please don't take this place too seriously, even the most ahem :rolleyes: ...agitated of our regulars are teddy bears under the surface. :wub:

Generally this is a fun place, with helpful people. We are easy going and like an occasional bit of fisticuffs :lol: but if you look at the post counts and join dates of those most deeply involved in these spats...most have been here for a long time :)

Longevity says it all :)

Welcome to FST in all its diversity.

All you have to do as a new member is check peoples posts (click on their user name ) , you can get a good idea where people are coming from. Use the PM option aswell if you have a problem , doubt too many members would turn you down looking for advice.


Edit : Its a lot better now than when I first joined , no did you google that first nOOb ? A lot of the fireworks is old members having a difference of opinon ! :lol:

Thanks all, for the advise, I had it coming. :lol: I didn't mean to sound so serious. I have also laughed alot in FST for the past year. That's why I keep signing in, I feel at home. ;)
