New Forum

[RGX]

7th, we arnt trying to gang up on you, this isnt a character assasination, and this has become far more aggressive and spiteful than it should have. All we would like, is the old skin back. Or one that fits our screen. We appreciate what you are trying to do for the forum, the website that has been built, the new plans, but rejecting the communitys opinion in order to save the community is a little harsh I think, and as you can see has built up a lot of resentment towards you. People wont forget this, and without respect between the Admins and the members, we have a problem.

This a great post RGX.

I fully back you as the community's new speaker

I'm with 7th on this one - the changes are for the best, as without changes the board will die! It's purpose was k-lite, now thats bed the board will follow without changes!

What if 7th got mad and just deleted the whole forum, database and all?

Would that be fucked up or what.

That's exactly a point that people don't see...

What if I was really a "bad admin" and if i would not care about the community ?

If I was THAT bad I would ban a few people I don't like
If I was THAT bad I could just add a few popups to make cash
If I was THAT bad I could get mad and take anything personal and shut down the forum
If I was THAT bad I could even redirect this board incl the klboard.ath.cx domain to kazaa.com

Luckily I don't take things personal because THAT would make me a bad admin. If you really thing that I am not doing my job then you should better leave cause I do more than you can even think about.

People say the stats dropped but they don't see that it is because KLite is gone. Same for the forum uptime: People complain about everything but they don't see that this forum was nearly never laggy or down at all. There was not one single day of downtime or script errors.

If I am that bad please contact Paul and VB and they can ask me to go away but I don't think that your chances are very bad because they care more about the community than single complaints.

Not to mention that most people who complain are the ones with high warning levels... but that's a different story...

If you decide to leave because of a skin or new features then I have to say: Sorry, you are not a part of this community - you are just selfish.

Fine change away, but can we not have a proper sized skin...this is just silly.

I will convert the board back to the old style and remove all new sections. I think it's the best idea to start a new site (unknown to this community) where people are happy about positive changes.

I personally don't care much if we build a rock solid community here or if I just start a new site and offer everything there

Seems like a few people really enjoy to let this forum die instead to give it a new branding and letting it grow.

Wow you deleated your original post and then deleated what you started the post with and then merged it with this one to create more choas and confusion as if you don't have enough. I seem to remember some other board admins and moderators who started to behave this way before all the shit broke loose...

Wel I for one never said you don't care, perhaps you care to much, I am just debating the direction you are taking.

In REALITY you have the power to give us both, so why not, and as I said if one falls the other will be there to catch us.

If you decide to leave because of a skin or new features then I have to say: Sorry, you are not a part of this community - you are just selfish.

I am not leaving, nor do I intend to, what I have said and suggested are simply to try and help and improve things here before they get any worse, I would hope you can see that...
