Topic: Complaints (again?)
Herro, I'm back! (pause for moans and groans)
Now, before you moderators and such get all uppity, I just want to clarify something. This post is not about me getting banned.
What I am wanting to complain about is this: Some of the older, "more experienced" members have been being pretty rude around and the moderators don't do anything because, well, their "more experienced."
Exhibit A:
A few days before I was banned a film was released on this site. It was called "Don't you Hate this Face ?!" (which I enjoyed very much actually, good job) and was created by one who I infer is one of the "newer members." Two days later, a moderator had moved it into the WIP's section with the message
I've moved this to WIPs and tests... y'know, where it belongs.
However, when KG came out with his Lego Sicknasty (even shorter and with less story), there was some debate about wether it should be classified as a Release. The following quote illustrates the point I am trying to make perfectly.
If this wasnt KG everyone would be tearing him a new one about releasing something this short.
However, the same moderator in question who moved the other film replied to this,
...heavens forbid an veteran member with a track record of consistent contribution be given a bit of leeway!...
It was not moved.
(Also, for the record, if you look at KG's posts, they are not exactly the most helpful. No offense though but I wouldn't call it 'Consistent Contribution.')
Exhibit B:
Shortly after being banned from the forums, I entered the chatroom to investigate. It took me about ten minutes to get a decent answer out of any of the people. I am not going to go into detail on the reasons for my ban, but upon asking my question, I was met with responses such as "cool story bro," and "u mad bro," etc. The examples of behaviors such as this are countless. I feel that the "experienced members" don't have the right to be treating people this way. To some of the newer members: Did you know that in the chatroom people post links to posts of yours that they somehow feel is funny, pathetic, or n00bish in some kind of way? They are making fun of all of us behind our backs! Wake up people!
I ask this of you, I plead of you, BE NICE! Countless cases have been where the ancient ones troll the newbies and this has to change!
Another question: Did any of you actually miss me while I was banned?
