I have submitted my resignation to Unixmad and hope to be removed promptly.
I was glad for the opportunity to help here, and it was a pleasure. But had I known that I would be subjected to frequent abuse from Lycia I would have been feign to accept.
I hope you all will, in the future, remember that this is supposed to be a forum of pleasant conversation- the fighting helps nobody in the long run.
However, the person who preached the above to me the most, Lycia, is the one who was, along with TheGame, most abusive.

Out of courtesy I didn't specifically give out our conversations, but I don't think that courtesy is owed now.

Lycia 4/25/01 11:53 PM Why the hell did you delete my post?>???

Holy Dante 4/25/01 11:53 PM I deleted the offensive threads. -.-

Lycia 4/25/01 11:54 PM That is retarded. You could've deleted
the freaking posts that were bad, not the
entire thing.

Lycia 4/25/01 11:54 PM but that would be too much like work, huh?

Lycia 4/25/01 11:54 PM I had extremley important and valid points in
the initial thread

Lycia 4/25/01 11:54 PM thread = post

Holy Dante 4/25/01 11:55 PM You've injured my feelings once again. -_- I
won't ask for an apology this time, just
please leave me in peace.

Lycia 4/25/01 11:56 PM yeah, proves how much you care. it also
proves that you play favourites.

Holy Dante 4/25/01 11:56 PM I guess it was too much to ask.

Lycia 4/25/01 11:57 PM yes, because you know I am right.

Holy Dante 4/25/01 11:57 PM You are... not responding to anything I am
saying, I think.

Lycia 4/25/01 11:58 PM you know, ewan may not have been around much
on the old boards, but at least he didn't play
favourites. ewan is a much better boards
moderator than you. if someone was insulted
on the boards, ewan deleted it without
question. You let people insult me for
weeks, and you did nothing. ewan would
NEVER Have allowed that.

Lycia 4/25/01 11:58 PM maybe you should get unixmad to give the job
to someone who is unbiased


Holy Dante 4/26/01 12:00 AM Well, there's only one way to treat your
request fairly, I guess. :(
I'll post this conversation on the message
board and ask what everyone else would like me
to do. I'll step down if they mandate it.

Lycia 4/26/01 12:01 AM oh, post a private conversation.

Lycia 4/26/01 12:01 AM Thats noble of you

Holy Dante 4/26/01 12:01 AM Are you so drought ridden as to be unable to
spare me a drop of courtesy?

Lycia 4/26/01 12:02 AM people like you on that board, Dante, but
being liked and being able to do your job
efficiently are 2 different worlds


Holy Dante 4/26/01 12:02 AM I guess that was also too much to ask.

Lycia 4/26/01 12:03 AM and you know, for you to insult me, is pretty
dumb as well. you insulted me on those
boards. I wasn't going to say it out there
because of the rammifications that would
incur, however, I got Stefan to issue you a
bomy. I didn't have to. I wanted to be
nice to you for a change, and you totally went
and insulted me. I felt hurt when you
insulted me.

Holy Dante 4/26/01 12:04 AM I'm sorry.

Lycia 4/26/01 12:05 AM see, I think of everyones feelings and I put
them before myself. you, apparently
absorbed by this flood of popularity, don't
give a crap about other peoples feelings.
Its like the high school setting. Popular
kids don't give a **** about others, they just
care about who likes them and they stomp all
over the nerds and underappreciated.

Lycia 4/26/01 12:07 AM well, thank you, Dante. You win. You
get popularity while stomping all over the
nerds. Thanks :D

Holy Dante 4/26/01 12:07 AM Who are the nerds?

Lycia 4/26/01 12:09 AM I'm not referring to actual titles, Dante, I'm
referring to people who are insulted regularly
on the boards and you sit by and don't give a
**** about them. Like, Welly, TwiZtid,
Jack, Icepick, etc. Sure, they may not
be the best people in the world, however, what
right do YOU have allowing them to be insulted
on those boards?

Lycia 4/26/01 12:09 AM if I was you, I'd delete anything that was
mean or hurtful towards others.

Lycia 4/26/01 12:09 AM Even if I didn't like the person who was being
insulted cuz guess what? Thats my job. My
job would be to maintain a positive milieu in
which people can swap ideas, not a damned war
zone.

Lycia 4/26/01 12:14 AM anyways. i'm done talking to you. you
obviously haven't absorbed a single word I
have said. So go back to your world of
popularity.

Holy Dante 4/26/01 12:14 AM Why did you message me?

Lycia 4/26/01 12:15 AM To voice my opinion, to vent, to inquire as to
why you kept other insulting posts and deleted
my post.

Lycia 4/26/01 12:15 AM *shrugs*. I don't have to give you a reason

Holy Dante 4/26/01 12:16 AM I was asking in hopes you would tell yourself.
:\

Lycia 4/26/01 12:16 AM Tell myself what?

Holy Dante 4/26/01 12:16 AM Tell yourself why you messaged me. :(

Lycia 4/26/01 12:17 AM why the sad faces?

Holy Dante 4/26/01 12:18 AM Because I am sad.

Lycia 4/26/01 12:18 AM Why?

Holy Dante 4/26/01 12:18 AM Were you concerned of it you would not have
been the cause of it.

Don't leave!!!!

This is awful
we've lost a wonderful moderator...
I'm sad too.
I'm sad and angry that we have to be cursed with her, destroying everything she comes in contact with...

I'm sorry, Dante.

I've never yelled at you or asked you to delete anything. I've never asked for your help on anything. If I caused trouble for you, I'm sorry. You're a great guy.

I don't see how it was cruel in anyway to post what Lycia did to me. I'm sorry Dante, please don't quit because of me.

Lycia is the one who yells at you and tells you to delete things that are not against the rules, not me. I'm sorry if I've ever hurt you.

it was very nice to have you dante, do not listen to lycia. she will just rip your fealings apart. i wish you luck in any other job you may or may not persue.

that is just horrible of her.

Opposite (4/5/01 9:29:26 PM):

TELL ME, damnit!

---
Opposite (4/14/01 12:04:43 PM):

GIVE IT UP, DAMNIT

I AM VERY VERY CLOSE TO GETTING UNIXMAD TO SWITCH
MODERATORS.

---
You (4/14/01 12:05:43 PM):

If that is what you wish to do, you needn't threaten me. Just do it.

---
Opposite (4/14/01 12:06:59 PM):

Why are you being such a damned idiot??

You let other ***s post crap, and I don't see you doing anything about it, but
when I post stuff, you delete it.

STOP being a damned dictator and stop deleting my damned posts so you
can get over me.

---
You (4/14/01 12:07:55 PM):

I don't want to argue with you. <:( Please don't shout at me.

---
Opposite (4/14/01 12:08:15 PM):

Because you know I'm right.

---
You (4/14/01 12:08:57 PM):

I've done nothing I regret, nor anything in bad faith. Please stop insulting me.

---
Opposite (4/14/01 12:09:55 PM):

Oh, but you enjoy letting idiots like Asuka have an offensive signature quote,
but when I do harmless spam, you delete it.

You have sick priorities, Dante.

---
You (4/14/01 12:10:16 PM):

Lycia, I've tried to tell you a hundred times it is outside of my abilities to change
people's signatures!

---
Opposite (4/14/01 12:11:08 PM):

No, but guess what, Dante?
You are a damned moderator.
If he refuses to change his signature, then start deleting posts he makes until
he gets the message.

Peoples who don't listen to moderators or admins don't get special rights.

---
You (4/14/01 12:33:41 PM):

Your interpretation of authority is bothersome to me. :(

---
Opposite (4/14/01 12:35:23 PM):

And whys that?
---
You (4/14/01 12:35:28 PM):

Is the only important thing in having a staff position that people listen to you?

I am sure everybody is sorry for their behaviour.

Even me.

Dante, please don't leave...

:(((((((((

My former post was TrueHeaT, This is now IceHawk:


That sick "human" being has gone too far, she has hurt peoples' feelings and degraded their reputation

Dante does NOT deserve to resign because seemingly that (!!!) did that!

Abusive?? I was merely stating that everyone should be welcomed here and not be afraid to post here and have to be subjected to insults, verbal abuse, and so forth.

TwiZtid, Icepick, Jack, myself, Hoss, and other people who post here shouldn't be afraid of posting innocent threads here. Some of those people I mentioend are terrified to post here for fear of being ridiculed.

ewan deleted anything that was insulting, degrading, or so forth towards players, administrators, and other individuals. You kept it here. How is anyone supposed to feel comfortable posting here when all they see is people attacking others?

I mean, really.

Thank you for your support, friends. I appreciate every one of you.

Now take peace in being kind to each other. Argument is good for the brain, but fighting is nothing more than bad for the soul.

Ewan was hated

Yes! Dante! Do not make some low life person make you quit!

Stand up for your rights! You should have banned her long ago! She thinks you are her slave!

You have to do something about this and get on with you life. Do not let her ruin this oppourtunity for you!

SICK PRIORITIES?!

HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT TO THE NICEST AND MOST POLITE PERSON ON THE INTERNET THAT I HAVE EVER MET?!

The people who are ridiculed ASK FOR IT.
THEY DESERVE EVERY BIT OF IT.

You think my last post is ridiculing you? NO, it isn't. It's telling people what you did, and how much of a HORRIBLE AWFUL DISGUSTING person you are.

Lycia is that kins of person.

lycia
twiztid has probably brtoken every graal online licence agreement rule dozens of time, but I would take him as a friend over you

Touching :)

twiztid is a nice guy once you talk to him privately, but publicly, yes he is a nuisance.

Yes, he was. Wanna know why?

He deleted posts that were insulting towards others and the frequenters to the boards hated that.

They wanted to speak their minds, but ewan knew better and kept things peaceful on there.

The sad thing is, in a way, Lycia is right.

I was an inadequate moderator; I should have done more- but it's hard to make judgements on what's right and what's wrong. If some people felt that they couldn't post here because of the abuse, I failed.

TheGame, all I ask is that you swallow your disdain for people- even those you consider among the worst- and be tolerant of every somewhat decent person on this message board.

Lycia! Answer me on ICQ! Face the truth!

Things would be peaceful here if you would stop making trouble Lycia...

DANTE is a genuine NICE GUY.

Why should he try to boss everyone around? You told people to die all the time. Use the searh button and the word die. I'm sure Lycia's name pops up about 50 times or so. You're as negative as anyone else, and what you did to me today proves it. It was not harassment what I posted. Actually, I DO NOT HARASS YOU. I point out what you do that's wrong and then tell everyone else. Asuka is the one who harasses you, NOT ME.

DANTE! NO ONE IN THE DAMN BOARD KNOWS HOW BUSY YOU ARE! WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO!

YOU HAVE TO CONTROL THIS WHOLE BOARD! WITH ALL THE IGNORANT PEOPLE POSTING SPAM OR STUPID THINGS!

LYCIA IS ONE OF THEM! YOU MAY HAVE NOT DELETED SOME BECAUSE YOU ARE FAR TO BUSY!!!

The truth is just overflowing in that statement

This really pisses me off! A really nice guy has to leave over some low life BEAST!

No. He was hated because he deleted everything he could get his grubby little hands on.

They wanted to "speak their minds". FREEDOM OF SPEECH pls.

Lycia,
Funny to see how much a snob you are

Dante,
Dont listen to lycia and dont quit we need you, your our only hope!

One person can't moderate the entire forum.


Lycia has to be the most negative person of all of the people that post here, she is always telling people to die, yet she doesn't get in trouble from papa unixmad.

I'm sorry, but, being popular and being able to do a good job are entirely different worlds.

I post this again.

From TrueHeaT: He did neither.

I'm quite nice to people who are nice to me.
People who felt they couldn't post here because they would be ridiculed need to wake up. This is the real world, not everything is "HI HOW ARE YOU I AM GOOD!". You have to deal with the good and the bad.

Yes and when Ewan deleted all those threads the boards became VERY boring and pretty much died off.

Dante became "popular" cus he was always nice to people and his been doing a good job other than getting you banned from these forums

or atleast so i think thats why he became "popular"

TheGame ... I was really nice to you before and all you did was harass me.

EVERYBODY!

Now me and TheGame get alond quite well! We still hate each othewr

but we can agree on things!

Ain't it the truth.

God I hate her.
