He fails to see the purpose in a lot of things, doesn't he?

Right. Okay.

What does that have to do anything? Regardless of whether the purchase came with other things doesn't mean that you just ignore it.

Would it be illegal for me to make these two post apart of my sig?

So the shave-ice vendor in Disneyland can show up drunk, now? After all, they didn't pay just to see the shave-ice vendor. The ride attendants can air their opinions on minorities (or for that matter safely stop smiling in public under any circumstances)?

Not the best point ever...just because the Forums aren't Graal's Primary selling point doesn't remove them from the equation. It's like doing a crap job on the cupholders because nobody buys the car for the cupholders.

The way I'm seeing things Now, you told Unixmad "Hey guy, they want the memberlist enabled." and he said "Why?" and logged off. And based on that, the matter is no longer up for discussion. Which makes it rather difficult for me to figure out whose initials are in my feedback ratingses, as I now have to scour the forum until I find a user whose name roughly matches...when the vast majority (or vocal minority, if you want to count idling users against the average) want to see Moonie take responsibility for (and control of) the forum decisions. Again - we don't have a forum admin, we have a forum automaton.

You it right on the nail Tyhm.

If our suggestions, those of the entire active userbase on these forums, want change, and you don't, it shows you think nothing of us, and you don't respect us. It's plain and obvious.

It's the actions I've seen expressed on these forums that made me decide not to upgrade. It's how you treat us that drove my business away, and I'm not the only one.

Why do people make assumptions? Members had voiced the wanted the option. I sent the links to Unixmad, and he said flat out "no".
End of discussion? Yes, because they are his forums.
You know, some of you expect me to fight the owner for some things that you want, whether I believe in them or not, which is unfair.
You can consider me not an administrator, because I'm not really. Never really thought of it before, but the only administrator is the one who has complete control over the forums, which I do not. Not even close.

I can't help it that I respect the owners wishes when it comes to this game and these boards. Respect for other people and their property is a big part of who I am.

zell12 01-27-2007 09:04 PM

Stop getting yourself involved then god damn it.

p2p_Sir_Link 01-27-2007 09:04 PM

For the ends that this thread was created, this is a dumb idea.

A forum manager would be appointed by the staff, and likely, the little sect that has broken away from the forums would be unlikely to gain this position, and people would still find themselves in the "unfair" (quotes for emphasis on "I Don't really mean that") bans they receive.

However, I would like to see Ibonic put his foot down a little more often.

If you are asked to remove it, yes...Sam nor I either one want quotes by us in members sigs, so you will be asked to remove it.

I have only seen a few members complaining. Ever thought that maybe more don't sign up is because of some of these active members actions? Think about that.

zell12 01-27-2007 09:07 PM

Someone needs to be fixing technical issues currently only stefan can fix. Someone needs to be here to talk to the the players, read their suggestions, take charge of the staff (the global staff as well), and do things on unixmad currently is able to do. That someone, should be like I said 5 times now, employed and stationed at their office, or at least in the same city.

Ever think they don't sign up because of people telling them it's not worth it? Or because of the actions of the moderators? hmmmmm

I see a lot more people playing the client, then posting on here. Or even showing up once or twice. I'd bet a shiny silver dollar that the actions are generally the same in the client (probably worse) than on the forums.

Do you really think such a person would be able to make Graal anywhere near enough money to even pay for their own salary?

zell12 01-27-2007 09:12 PM

Probably not, but I'm being optimistic here, something has to change. They don't have the time to be doing this, that's is why they don't care, ignore peoples problems.

p2p_Sir_Link 01-27-2007 09:14 PM

I'd be more worried about the starved state of the game rather than the forums.

There are two sides to every coin. It cannot be said that no one signs up or posts on the forums because of the way it is moderated.

I am positive of that. Why do you think I hardly play the game anymore, or Manage a server?

zell12 01-27-2007 09:19 PM

So why would players not sign up on the forums, yet still play the game? You make no sense.

So cleaning up the forums, which is supposed to be an added feature to the game is a fruitful endeavor, while worrying about the game itself is not?

I wouldn't know without asking every single one of them, that's my point. I don't make assumptions based on a few members.

if Graal is paying you (I don't know if they are), you should also be assigned some sort of game support position.

ACTUALLY, according to your previous post, you assumed players didn't sign-up because of the actions of the members? Am I correct in saying that?

then the above statement was rescinding, I was only suggesting that if she were to be paid for doing the forums only, that would be somewhat ridiculous.

Then dont make blank statement that you dont know about.

and just to restate my lil comments that you magically ignored as your quoted me.

Now, I don't know what the word "no" means to you, but to me, it simply means "no", not "maybe", not "ask me at another time". It means "no"

Every time someone says no should we just listen? Now I think you have a high school diploma at least, think hard.

Yes you have to pay for the game to play, this includes the forum. The forum is not the object of your contract you have to pay for

Why can't someone be paying for the forum as the object and the game just happens to come along?

Infernix 01-27-2007 09:45 PM

Its all part of one product anyways. "GRAAL"

But the point of my statement was to make you realize that your statement here...

No, I made no assumptions, I said "Have you ever thought that maybe......?" No assumptions there.
Excaliber stated his statement as fact, when it is not.

Same thing I said, only assumed it was a different cause. btw read your forum pm please, you have moderators acting out of line. Way out of line.

you have to pay to have access to the forums, unless of course a magical gold/vip account comes out of nowhere for people who want access.

Don't try to argue that forums is what you paid for fellas, unix already told us publicly that it was a unprivilege or something... lolz

konidias 01-28-2007 11:37 AM

I liked these forums much better when Unixmad let me admin them however I chose. :p

It's too bad that my fighting with Unix got me global banned which meant no more konidias as forum admin.

Devil 01-29-2007 02:47 AM

That's probably a good thing. Don't worry unixmad, everyone makes mistakes.
