where have all the good people gone...

[brad.dude03]

Ah, forgot you joined after dear Franky. Fair enough. The point is, you joined over a year and a half ago.

That's the last time we got big talent moving in here.

 

[Elenai]

I see talent in Anarchianbedlam.

 

[Pyritie]

I see maturity in zombie2279 and oh_snap.

 

[~Void~]

I see irrelevance in the post above this.

 

[Deathcom3s]

I see 3 reasons as to why this post should be closed.

 

[Gausslander]

Meh.
The way I see it I basically already left; I only use this for off-topic and arena

 

[Just_Spectating]

i guess the "cool" people have moved on in life

why should we tell them what to do, it is after all only a gaming site.

 

[leet.firefox]

A better question would be, When did the fun go away?

 

[Just_Spectating]

a long time ago when school was invented

 

[Hakeem]

They shouldn't have been given in the first place.

Would that they hadn't felt it necessary to bring it on themselves.

 

[Kwah]

I resent this thread.

I'm obviously the second coming.

 

[Just_Spectating]

you are not the second coming.

 

[Mr. Bob]

I don't think anyone will come along anymore, honestly.

The last good modder, to really contribute something to the community, to bring new talent to the table, was General Frank.

General Frank is the last good modder to join this site.

Same thing Void said. Unless, you feel I have no talent. That's fine. lol

 

[Traxamillion]

Thank god Callahan has not deserted us..

 

[Just_Spectating]

thank god callahan has not deserted us..

qft~

 

[brad.dude03]

It's not that you don't have any talent, it;s that you don't have the same extraordinary talent as someone like General Frank, who came on the scene and made amazing things, etc. The legends are gone, and I don't think any more are coming.

 

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

Callahan is better than General Frank.

 

[Mr. Bob]

lol just playing around. Although, I don't see any other new ships on the Hive. Anyway, I wasn't actually that serious.

 

[MasterHaosis]

Why so serious?

 

[PurplePoot]

To those saying the new people will come then be banned or leave...

Or stop coming because the others have been banned or left. That's basically what's happened.

(Although the blah blah wc3 is dying people also have a point).

 

[En_Fuego]

*looks around* I'm still here.

 

[DaedraEater]

What about the people who Frank's band for questioning his authority in things? Many were good members and extras were artistic choices (no, I'm not talking about the CnPs, etc...).

Haven't you said you won't go into this?

 

[En_Fuego]

I don't know where I heard this from, but I hear that moderators are allowed to ban people at will. This is called "being trusted enough to be given authority". If the administrator trusts him and he bans someone and the administrator doesn't revoke his power, then he must be doing something right.

 

[Gespenst]

Because the hive is not a democracy.

Which is why all the "good" people are gone.

 

[Pyritie]

Which is why all the "good" people are gone.

Find me three popular sites that are true democracies.

 

[Kuhneghetz]

I'm still here. =)

 

[En_Fuego]

LOL, none of the cool people left because it's a not a democracy. They left because they're cool. And cool people have to move on to life.

 

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

You're so wrong I can't be bothered to laugh.

 

[En_Fuego]

....liar

 

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

Seriously, its sad. The "cool" people don't leave because they're "cool", they leave because they're pissed at something for a reason or another, try to fight back and change things, and wind up banned.

OR they just troll and ragequit. Depends on who.

 

[En_Fuego]

Just because that happened to you doesn't mean it happens to everyone.

 

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

Good point. I know it happens to most to do what I mentioned but I also know that about 50% of the talented or "cool" users who leave just sort of disapear.

 

[HFR]

I remember the old days (2008) when this site was full of cool and talented people. I'ts an shame several didn't are here anymore. I remember of an guy named Olofmoleman, An amazing modeler and skinner. He vanished in the air last year. I'm not talking that everyone nice are gone. We're still have good people, like DvO and MasterHaosis (He's an example of good person). But the Hive is now just an shadow of his former glory.

 

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

Not really a shadow of its former glory, it just doesn't have its old members.

Don't make up drama.

 

[leet.firefox]

Dammit! Is this thread still going?

People come and go. They create things, make friends, hang out, and then move on with their lives. Perhaps some did leave because of users or rules on the hive. But that is their own problems and that is also the past.

Stop concentrating on the past and look forward to the future. What do you think people did before all the talented ones show up? Obviously not everyone will get along and it is irrational to think or hope otherwise.

New, talented people will come, why not enjoy the ones we have now instead of having all these drama fights for the most idiotic reasons.

 

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

Besides, SC2 will surely bring much more to the hive.

 

[HFR]

Right, enough of this pointless drama. We have good people in this site and that's fine.

 

[En_Fuego]

Lol, the Hive was better before 2008.

 

[leet.firefox]

That's what I keep saying
@WIIL

 

[HFR]

In that time we had Olofmoleman that

Unleashed waves of mighty dinosaurs in the Hive's model section, into an bloody war for the approval.

(I know, I like to be dramatic).

 

[Pyritie]

lol olof

Olof left this site way before then. He just popped up sometime last year, posted a few models, then left back to WC3C again.

 

[brad.dude03]

Yeah, seriously.

2007 was an alright year. 2006 was better I think.

 

[N.O]

I hope I am not being rude or mean, (stepping on anyone's turf) I just want to say what i am aware of and help cool down the hive because many good memebers have indeed been banned it seems and the public are never aware of it until one day. (Some Noob: Hey where did that cool guy go? He always pops in, *looks in the profile* oh he got banned.)

So here goes what I feel like saying,
I think the people that are in control need to calm down (cool there jets) and need to think before harsh reactions because if this keeps happening many people might be sad as well it'll be bad for the hive seeing good people be banned instead of bad people is one of the worse things that could happen on the computer that is. So, I don't know how some people react but I do think that they only act that way because they get blamed harsh by some power abuser (a person in the poistion of power) and then the blamed person decides to argue what is right and wrong, then all of a sudden bam ip banned from there favourite site ever and no chance of redemption. So, I seriously think some people have issue's with there power they have been given and use it harshly or abuse it. I also think the community are a little rough with the people that either got blamed for the wrong reasons or are too harsh like comments/suggestions in the resource sections as a example.
One Last Note: People need to learn to think before reaction (start).
P.S: Don't ban me please, I was only saying what I hope was free say otherwise I apolgize for this inconvience paragraph about the people in control.

 

[Jerrin]

Wow.. This thread reeks of nostalgia, nepotism and narcissism.

Honestly, it's 7 pages full of it. It's fine though. A community won't survive without a bit of each - I know that to be true.

My stand in this case being: People come 'n go. Nothing that can be done. Happens in our daily lives as well. For example, how many of you are still hanging out with the same crowd you did 10 years ago? It's the same in this case, just sped a hell lot more up.

<3 nostalgia.

 

[N.O]

People may come and go but some people don't do that because of what I explained in my last paragraph, and in our daily lives friends/people don't just blame you for no reason (unless its a joke).

 

[DaedraEater]

Haven't you said you won't go into this?

Why? Hmmm...?

 

[Gespenst]

Find me three popular sites that are true democracies.

A trick request.

For one, there aren't many popular countries with "true democracies" because all the popular so called "democratic" countries are acually republics, all the "true democracies" are those little countries in south america and whatnot that dont do much, and are not very well known.

Second, internet society is very different from true society, and as such the rules of real life government are unapplicable here.

Instead, a "Laissez faire" style web society is most effective, not an arbitrary electoral government, such a type of upholdment is found in networking sites like myspace, and general talk forumns. In a Laissez faire style government, the authorities are there, making laws that are reasonable and that the public can settle and agree upon, only stepping in when it is necessary.

I'm not calling for an anarchy, I'm saying the moderation here is a bit intrusive and interloping, and a bit hardheaded when it comes to public suggestions. Don't go into the mod threads and talk about stuff, talk to the respected members of these forumns.

Even in such a situation, someone has to maintain the server. So they are the dictator, in a way, since they can edit files on the server or just turn the whole thing off.

 

[En_Fuego]

Yeah, seriously.

2007 was an alright year. 2006 was better I think.

Duh, that's when we registered.

And if you want to make the Hive like Myspace where you basically give everybody moderation power over everything they own.......y/
