  • Just a note: I'm not biased, because all the mods you demoted I did not care for. You should look at it from an objective angle too; step into someone else's shoes, take a look at what you're doing. Demoting mods for no reason? Banning users who criticse you for demoting mods for no reason? Yes you explained why you did what you did, but we also explained why what you did should not be done.
    You know, you need more resource moderators. -kobas- and enjoy can't moderate all of the incoming resources, they're very busy too, also I don't know if there's any model moderator, but you should start hiring some to decrease all of this pending resources.
    too bad I have closed my browser and llost the message I inteded to send :(
    I hope I will be as much rehotorical recreating it
    Edit: it is to cure the site: I have just uploaded my map, and I wanted you to stop the hacker, wasnt waiting for bigger problem...I did not want it to end this way :(
    Ralle, I would like you to know that your effort at making this a better community is appreciated. Many people on this website have a hard time acting civilized and would rather resort to expressing their opinions in an aggressive manner. Some also completely disregard other people's opinions and "troll" them. You have done an excellent job as a site administrator who is not afraid to correct things despite of the possible consequences. The lack of respect to you, by some of the members, usually comes from opinionated kids anyways. Although I am not really a significant part of the hive community, I give you my utmost respect. I may get negative rep for this, but i don't really care as i hope this message helps you out. Peace bro
    Maaaan a cant understand whats the big deal in here with all those mods and admins ya punished! People just QQ about it because they cybered with them few times and will miss "the good ol taams". xd
    Do what ya have to do, Mista Moose! They will sob 3 times and then will move along and will forget about it like it never happened before.
    Hi. Is there a current explanation of the 'ralletester' replacing Rui's posts? If not, would you be willing to elaborate upon it? Thanks.
    Dear Slim, you still ain't called or wrote, I hope you have a chance
    I ain't mad, I just think it's fucked up you don't answer fans
    (2nd part, do increase the maximum of words, please, I tend to write a lot, look down for the first part) However, I'm a new peon, I probably don't know the whole situation and what they've done although I doubt it, I checked their latest posts... But is the only way to keep members from talking by closing the new thread you make everyday? Why not tell them the whole truth, with all the little tiny explanations telling what I3lackdeath did, what Pyramidhe@d did, why M0rbid left, (you already said about DonDustin and Rui) and why The Dark Wizard was promoted, not just he "helped me a lot" and he is my friend. Say, if that was the thing "he spied for me, he helped new members, he explained a lot, I have faith in him". Something like that.

    Sorry if I'm spamming on your account but you still don't answer me and with every minute I get new information about this... chaos and I declare my opinion here since you closed the last thread (I was late... again).
    (1st part) I'm with you Ralle, although admit it, moderators are human... and, well, they sometimes get angry. Like I3lackdeath and Pyramidhe@d... they never did anything wrong and you just shut them down because in the past there was one day that they said to someone in the chat at some time that his or her icons maaaaay have sucked a bit. I may have missed that but... everybody has a bad day. You wanted too much from them, now I know that you will disagree with me and/or just ignore me, cuz you've already lost them and you can't get them back, and/or you don't want to look like an idiot telling them "please come back, I realized my mistake". No people do so :\... sad though.
    I thought moderators and admins were supposed to be, friendly? Why did you not answer to any of us, peons, that write you messages? Are you ignoring us? Sorry if that sounded rudely.
    Why did you demote and bann Pyramidhe@d and demote I3lackdeath? These people, as far as I know, haven't done anything wrong. Rui did do dumb stuff, as you said. DonDustin did give information to peons (if that's a reason to be banned, but, oh well... I guess that the staff should have some secrets). But I3lackdeath and Pyramidhe@d have done nothing wrong. Never insulted anyone, never gave secret information to anyone. I was with you moose man but you crossed the line... banning one, as Mr. Bob said, doesn't mean bann all Ralle :\... what's happening to you? You think that if one "titan" is evil all are. Why? I may have agreed with you on Rui and DonDustin but man.. :\ why, Pyramidhe@d and I3lackdeath? And why did all the moderators suddenly start leaving? Like M0rbid? I think they were scared of you, cuz you did started banning some people without reason. Bann me, if that's the only way you can handle problems. You really seemed like a good guy Ralle.
    Banning members for voicing their opinions is fucked up.

    Yeah I have to agree with that one... Which makes me wonder... Am I going to get banned yet again, for reasons unknown? Sufficient warning welcomed.

    Edit: Also, the rash of members removing their resources is really starting to worry me. :\
    Just to let you know, I for one am simply giving my opinions. I still hold you in high respect, in fact higher for standing up against the crowd for what YOU thought was right, despite the fighting and accusations and whatnot.

    What I think you should do is honestly stop the bans. If you don't want people to be spamming the forums, tell them to take it to TDW in PM. He is, your good friend after all. And I had a conversation with him on private message and I thought, despite what the people said, he was very polite.

    That does not disregard the fact that I (sort of) dislike him, though I am honestly in no position to be judging people however I want, hence why I don't simply speak out my every thought.

    But remember, some of us here aren't planning to move and still hold you in high regard. One of them being myself.
    Hmm...... I respect you Ralle, and I understand the reasons for your actions and your intentions. Therefore I will not complain about the current restructuring of the site. And please remember that you have my support. Please do not hesitate to do what is right if I ever break the rules or if I am hindering the Hive's development and growth.

    You have my support, don't hesitate to do what's right, and God Bless you.
    Look, some of the stuff you're doing is okay. Most of it isn't. Banning/demoting staff members you feel are corrupt/inept at their job is okey dokes. Banning/demoting them without sufficient evidence is a no-go. You stated no hard evidence as to why DonDustin for instance was removed from the staff, other than a report which was apparently filed years ago and he (rightfully) being butthurt at your betrayal, and leaking information you wanted to withhold. Getting a person who noone has even heard of become your right-hand is strange, but we have yet to see if he'll do his job well. Banning members for voicing their opinions is fucked up.
    Believe me when I say that I'd be the last person, but isn't what is happening a little too harsh?
    Ralle, this new 120 second wait for a VM was a terrible idea.
    I'm actually starting to wait over a minute on people's profiles just waiting so I can post the message and move on to the rest of my VMs.
    It just makes the site harder to use.
    In fact, I had to wait 45 seconds after I finished typing this.
    It's very frustrating Sir.
    Do come by the Zero Tolerance thread, you will find it quite interesting, i assure you.
    I am not trying to troll you at all or anything of the sort.
    But I believe you are making a terrible mistake by banning all these members. Banning people in chat for the MERE mention of former staff. You have created chaos.

    I honestly don't see why you chose the people you did, but that is your decision. But with this decision you may have rocked the boat too much.

    I do not approve of what you are doing, and for the most part I think it is wrong.
    But who am I to question?
    I am all but an unknown peon.
    I'd like to ask for the exact same thing as M0rbid:

    Please delete all of my resources from this site.
    I just want you to know, though I oppose some of your decisions, I am solely here to provide insight that will better the website, and I am behind your actions... As you can tell, I'm still around after various bans and infractions, because I am here to invest into the site, my resources and insight.
    Hi Ralle.
    Since it's this zero thingy now (I am sorry, it's late and I forgot that name)
    I would like to ask you for a favor. Could you please delete all my ressources (entirely and totally), so that I can start of from equal terms with the new users?
    I would do it myself, but those are so many, and they still appear in the deleted tab without me being able to do anything against it.
    I guess it will be easy for you, right.
    So, have a nice evening.

    And keep on ~Zeroing
    As I said before ;)
    Hey man,
    It's been a while since we talked. But I still consider you a friend.
    About the Dondustin thingy, I shouldn't have asked about Rui. I'm sorry, I didn't know it was thát sensitive at the time.
    I want you to know that I changed a lot in my absence. I had a good share of trolling and I probably caused quite some headaches at the staff, back in the days. This I know but I can assure you this is no longer the case. I'm behind you, man.
    Hit me up if you have the time so we can catch up a bit, man.
    I'll be watching the forums more closely in the next weeks.
    Heya. Rui wanted me to tell he couldn't send that PM he promised to send you, because he's banned.
    Bless you and all the time you've put into this site. From a simple user of this site I would like to say thanks and good luck in moving forward.
    I did not have problems with Rui. I have no proof of that, but I have proof of his well being.
