Lately I have seen a lot of people angry at me either because they were warned or attentioned, by me. You have to understand that I am not angry at you, and I'm not trying to get my revenge on you or just show you any inch of superiority. NO! I'm just doing my job.

I've had it with you guys being unpleasant because you break the rules, you then comment them as being stupid, and of course, you blame me. A very small part of the rules were indeed reconditioned by me, but most of them were made by The_Raven. And I'm happy to say that he did an awsome job (although I wonder where he is now...).

So I'm asking you to stop complaining. Just because I am a mod doesn't mean that now I am a mean all monster. If I were that, I would have warned much more people, talked in a very superior tone, and perhaps even refuse to help you guys. But just because I am warning those who break the rules, I'm deleting those resources which I don't find good enough to belong to this site and I lock those topics which are useless, doesn't mean that I'm a bad guy. Try to understand this.

I think I'm doing my job in a good way. If you don't like it, then you'll just have to deal with it. I just made this post to tell you how I think. That is all...

And btw, I've been pretty sick this week so I had a look upon 8 contesters of the Arcane Competition by now. ;) Don't think that I forgot about it.

Welcome to the world of modding, Daelin! You have now been initiated!

Every mod who had deleting powers has to go through that, especially those who do a LOT of deleting, such as Sansui and myself. I should show you some of the more "creative" replies to delete notifications that I saved just for a good laugh. Funny thing is that many of them are for resourses that blantently broke the rules (i.e. not removing obsolete verions of maps), not stuff that was straddling the grey line.

Well, PM is supposed to be the sort of safe haven where people can resolve or flame up their problems in private without really having to worry about that. In most part I'm greatful they they at least do their flaming over PM and not doing it public on the boards, where then they have to be moderated...

Don't bother with those PMs, Daelin. Of course lately you just see those nasty PM, coz if everyone must send PM to you about you're doing a great job, your inbox must be flooded up. :wink:

That's why i won't send you a PM telling you're doing a great job. :wink: ..and that's why you think that you just got a lot of people angry, but they are just tiny part compared with everyone who like you.
