So now we have FIVE locked threads on the first page.

[Slant Earthshaker]

Is there some sort of agenda here Im not seeing? You want to keep the boards as boring and as uninteresting as possible? I mean jesus christ, theres already like 3 new threads a week, shit on the front page has been there for a month and youre LOCKING THREADS??? WTF is the logic?

And dont even get me started on the magically moved thread, that bullshit still pisses me off. Didnt that one moderator lose mod powers for pulling that shit? And now its standard fare? Im not even sure why I stay here anymore. Ill bet if I started a thread stroking the ego of one of the moderators you wouldnt close THAT. Fucking get a clue.

[Buyza]

word..

waiting for this thread to get locked :rollin

[Selwen Soulgazer]

See the " this is not your playground" thread for why those have been locked
And dont even get me started on the magically moved thread, that bullshit still pisses me off. Didnt that one moderator lose mod powers for pulling that shit? And now its standard fare?
As to that moved thread, we don't owe you an explanation. It's called Mods discretion. I did not move that thread, and I am not sure who did, but I am curious as to who you think lost their mod powers.

[trimlock]

crydee did, and it was because she started it, and it turned into a flamefest, so the next day she deleted it and got demoted

[Slant Earthshaker]

As to that moved thread, we don't owe you an explanation

I beg to differ. You expect the populace of these boards to follow a certain set of rules, rules which you set forth for us to follow. In exchange we expect you (the moderators) to enforce said rules, and to do so in a predictable and consistent way. There are many claims tossed around that this board is "owned by so and so", and they can "do whatever they like with it". However, inasmuch as you "own" the ezboard right to the board, for the past years this board has become what it has through the postings and financial contributions of virtually everyone BUT the moderators. Im not saying that the moderators do not contribute financially or in threads, however it cannot be denied that the MAJORITY of contribution on both fronts comes from NON-moderators. Therefore, as much as you 'own' the boards, we 'own' it as well.

However, with this thread, and a number of other heavy-handed incidents over the past few months, you have shown that you care not for keeping the boards true to their intent, but to twisting them as you see fit when a thread makes you uncomfortable or irritated. Yes, I read the "this board will not become a playground" thread blah blah blah, and it is nothing more than transparent justification for behaving in an irresponsible manner. NEVER in the history of these boards have you closed "for fun" threads, allowing people like Shewdogg, Tallid and others free reign to ask their buddies to IM them, make a lame flame at a friend or post a stupid inside joke screenshot.

WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU CARE????

Seriously - was the populace of Ayonae.Ro all up in arms because there was a stupid fucking thread with 3 replys in them of Seratonin calling Tallid a faggot? Well I guess you wouldnt know because you NEVER BOTHERED TO ASK US WHAT WE THINK!!! Maybe we LIKE those threads. Maybe we dont CARE if Buyza wants to constantly attract negative attention. Youre making a judgement call about locking and moving threads, without having any kind of comprehensive rule or regulation in place to let us, AYONAE RO, know what kinds of threads are NOW SUDDENLY deemed unacceptable and will be locked, deleted, moved or whatnot. Its irresponsible and unfair to us, and I believe you know it.

So lock this thread or move it or whatever, this board is going downhill anyways and this is just helping to flush it down the toilet faster. Ive said what I want to say.

[Trikki]

I agree, the boards are getting really slow. let some shit go and quit being so damn uptight. Swallow a piece of coal and poop out a diamond. Relax and let the retards be retards so we have something to read. Obviously the over protective censorship is not working cause the boards are boring as hell. Good bye threads are the most exciting things on the boards lately. ZzzzzzzzZZZzZZZzZZZzzzzz



:evil

[Greystone Thorngage]

anyone notice the locked threads are all about EW members....

[Grumblin]

- and there goes trilkin again, oh well. Are the mods determined to kill anything that promises to be interesting?

[Sanchek]

We knew that was Trilkin for a while. Since the board's been so dead, we let him slide as long as he was being productive (which he was). As soon as he screwed up and did this (http://p196.ezboard.com/fayonaerofrm6.showMessage?topicID=4031.topic), Kiv did the right thing and shut him down before he went back to his full blown self.

[Buyza]

I agree with greystone, I think EW sells plat/characters to pay kiv to lock any threads concerning them and sleeping with members to let daughters in :lol

On a real note, I agree with slant in saying this is Ayonae ro's board and not the moderators board. If we want to post stuff to our friends or make jokes then who cares? It is not like it is taking up anything more useful on the front page.

[kinu]

Me think the posts get locked because they are:
1) worthless and they weren't all about EW. Lets say mods probably got tired of buyza making crap posts.

2) once again the board isn't your playground

3) if you're still wondering why this board barely hit half what it needed in cash you got the answer in this thread.

4) just because a minority enjoy reading retard posts doesn't mean the majority that actually pay for it has to suffer it.

[Haloface]

Amen.

The fact is the mods should have caught Trilkin's balls in a meat-grinder the second he showed his ugly fucking face again. Let him slide to make the boards more interesting?
Why don't YOU guys make the forum more interesting?
They're right. It isn't a playground for retarded ebay kids and their EW screenshot tells. Nor is it a PM forum where little teenieboppers can run riot with their stupid fucking "omg talid sucks har har" posts.

If this NAG forum isn't constructive anymore, maybe YOU guys should make it more so?
We do a good enough job in the RLNAG forum.

Sheesh, a year ago the mods were being bashed for little moderation. Now they moderate, and it's the end of the world.

[Grumblin]

NAG? constructive?

Did you see the positive feedback from that post? It was more interesting than almost the rest of the front page. People like drama in NAG. I know i do, what the fuck is going to happen if people are going to be banned for posing controversial opinions because they offend the mods? Its rediculous, if you dont like the "silly drama shit" stay in RL nag, the place for constructive argument. If retarded shit makes people post more, even if to say "haha that was retarded" then its a positive, and look, theyre laughing!

[Ibudin]

BOARD NAZI'S!!!!!!!!!!!

[Gekster]

Some of these threads were pretty good NAGs in the working, NAG is our playground. If it isn't you mine as well do away with it.

[Lleauric]

Hey Slant!

HA HA (http://homepages.ihug.com.au/~gmaselli/simpsons/ha-ha!.wav)

[ThePerfectFlaw]

We have new ideas for the new boards and I hope you'll all bear with us until we can get everything in place and then you can bitch about the system all you like until we get it right.

As for Trilkin, Sanchek is slightly mistaken. We were planning on granting a full 'pardon' for all previous banned/warned individuals for the new boards...a fresh start if you will. However, he's proven that he isn't going to change so fuck him.

Anyways, my main pre-occupation is with the Real Life forum and ~eventually~ updating the tradeskiller list. If you have any complaints about how that forum is going, feel free to shoot me off an email.

[TeHoRacle]

Maybe if some people with power on these boards weren't such dickheads, then more people would post.

[moklianne]

Locked/deleted threads in NAG. Heh, talk about sensorship in the extreme.

[Lleauric]

Censorship in the extreme?

Are you fucking serious? Holy mother of christ. Get some fucking perspective.
http://www.liberator.net/articles/pic-china.jpg

Damn, there should be a reality camp we can send clueless drama whores, wherein they experience what oppression, censorship and all these other grave injustices they claim is ACTUALLY occuring.

[Fazin]

There won't be any traditional flames on this board that are worth reading anyway, nor the next. Not unless something drastic changes in the game. Unfortunately it seems people grew up and worked together.

[trimlock]

the games full of people that just want to hold each others dick and sing happy songs

[Fazin]

and just think Gokuu, you showed them all how! Well, not the singing bullshit part.

[Nydia Ywalmoriel]

Give the mods a break, guys. The simple fact is that a lot of people have stopped coming to/contributing to this board because, in recent months, it's become home to nothing but the homoerotic jerkfests of a few obnoxious people. There's not much that the mods can do about the aging of EQ, but they do have a right to keep the trash to a minimum and to work on making the board more friendly (and useful, for example the guild database) to folks who actually want to contribute something besides scent-marking, (even if it's a NAG :) ).

If you haven't been over there lately, check out the RL Nag forum, or even the recent upswing in actual content containing posts here. I'd like to see more in-game content addressed here, but there's not much one can do about guild gag orders, etc, a lot of the old guard retiring, and this board's less-than-friendly reputation. It's a shame that little talk about last weekend's 'summit' has made it here (both Wubba of Allied Giants and I have made rather lengthy replies on Steel Warrior and The Runes, respectively, listing our concerns from the small guild perspective), but perhaps that, too, is telling. What percentage of the A Ro playerbase makes it here anymore, I wonder, and who *did* attend from A Ro?

Finally, Trilkin got his rocks off by seeing how much he could push the mods, and justly deserves his ban. I think that the mods have a right not to choose not to deal with someone who makes a career out of antagoizing them just for the hell of it, and that their action can hardly be considered unjust or extreme in this case. It seems to me that the current 'This board is not a playground' movement is an attempt to restore some credibility to the board as a place where folks can have an actual conversation before there isn't a userbase to hear about it...

Regards,
Nydia Ywalmoriel
Autonomous Collective

[Slant Earthshaker]

Its funny how everyone that argues against me feels the need to defend the rebanning of Trilkin, as if they feel its some sort of rallying cry that Im using.... when, imagine that!, I dont even mention him in any of my posts!!! Hm. And then they all ignore the missing thread, and Im not sure why. Fine. If the people paying for the board are going to have moderators that lock and delete and move threads on a whim, fine. But the least you could do is GIVE US GUIDELINES SO WE KNOW WHY! And that includes retroactively explaining why you removed a thread that was simply questioning moderator abuse of power and biased judgement.

[ThePerfectFlaw]

Basically what I've suggested for the 'new' boards is that we have simply the "General" and "Real Life" forums. With the ability to split threads we can keep those two relatively free of the stuff that people like Nydia and Kivorn dislike without having to lock entire threads.

However, unless Kivorn smites me from on high, we'll also have the "NAG" section...only we'll attempt to keep a warning on it that you shouldn't be reading the section if you don't like the..."Homoerotic jerkfest."

Personally, I don't see why two guilds flaming eachother is any more constructive or honorable then two people flame baiting eachother.

And as much as I'd like to see more talk of what should go on at the 'summit', anybody that's paid attention to SoE's tactics knows that nothing will come of it. At best we'll see a few doors fixed in Rivervale and some newbie quest in Oggok will -finally- give out "Mugrosh's Rock of Smashing" instead of "Mugroshs rock of smashing." If we're -really- lucky, they might even give enchanters a new 3-second casting 400 dmg nuke that's cold based.

[Kivorn]

Just because a select number of our userbase enjoys the circlejerking that is posting "Funny" screenshots with internal jokes, and some like to watch, doesn't mean its constructive or wanted. A lot of people just find it retarded, funny thing, I happen to be one of them.

Not to worry though, you'll get your little corner of retardedness, complete with windows and a kleenex dispenser by the time the 2.0 boards are done.

As for the trilkin thread... heh. We shoot to kill as far as he's concerned and frankly I don't care if a little forum space becomes a casualty of war.

Nice EZSupporter tag there by the way Slant.

[Osgiliath666]

Give the mods a break, guys

Obviously you are part of the corporate machine designed to keep up all down. FIGHT the mod oppressors! FIGHT THEM!

Ok, too much Tylenol Sinus, sorry.

[Gekster]

What exactly is NAG for that isn't a homoerotic jerkfest or just retarded stuff? And for those complaining they don't like it... you aren't being forced to read it, they made NAG a seperate section for a reason.

[trimlock]

>and just think Gokuu, you showed them all how! Well, not the singing bullshit part.

had to show the girls how to do it, they were way too young

so i stepped in and gave them some learnin!

[Slant Earthshaker]

As for the trilkin thread... heh. We shoot to kill as far as he's concerned and frankly I don't care if a little forum space becomes a casualty of war.

Heh congrats on still completely ignoring the point.

Nice EZSupporter tag there by the way Slant.

Matches yours nicely. Could you be more blatantly hypocritical?

[Sanchek]

Matches yours nicely. Could you be more blatantly hypocritical?
Supporter EZBoard owners have automatic supporter status on their primary accounts.

[Kivorn]

Its been what... three years now since Edeina and I started this place up?
I'll go out on a limb here and say that I don't need to justify what I contribute to the boards.

Anyways, I'm not gonna get into a debate over this. I'm tired, grumpy, and sick of shit like this.

Just wait for Ayonae.ro 2.0 (hey, that rhymes!).

[Thormir]

NAG: Nearly Anything Goes.

[Slant Earthshaker]

No need to get into a debate, Im just curious how much cash youve donated over the past three years? I honestly dont know. I havnt given anything, not that I wouldnt, Im just poor. Im simply curious.

[Fazin]

So in the future will this include the locking of anonymous posters, who flame guilds with private matters? In return providing the IP directly to said guild?

Honestly, don't even bother with a NAG section then, there's no real point. Not everyone cares to read everything posted here... christ, paging through the real life section warrants a knife to cut through the bullshit egos. But wait, thats the whole point about written opinions, you don't have to read them unless you want to.

[Gulor Gularin]

Gah! Don't you bring that knife near my ego!

[Osgiliath666]

But wait, thats the whole point about written opinions, you don't have to read them unless you want to.

Let me edit that for you..

But wait, thats the whole point about written opinions, you don't have to read them unless the mods want you to.

[Sanchek]

You guys may not remember, but not too long ago a lot of people were complaining about the lack of moderation around here. Quite a few of those people were the people who financially supported the place. Now, those people are gone and the board is a lot less active outside of the political stuff.

You're going to have a hard time coming up with a good argument against making some changes, given the results the hands-off approach has yielded.

There are still thousands of active accounts on ARo. Sure some people are quitting, but relatively few. You've got one group of ex-active posters who have been alienated by the direction the board took recently, and an even larger group of lurkers that don't want to be subjected to the so predictable bullshit that comes with posting here these days. Catering the entire board to a small clique at the expense of everyone else is such a waste.

[Fazin]

I'm going to go out on a limb here, and say that even if this "clique" contributed to the support of this board, I doubt that they'd be heard either way.

[Slant Earthshaker]

I understand that there are differing opinions about the quality of the board and the effectiveness of moderation - I dont think that point is being argued.
HOWEVER - I defy you to find people that believe it is OK to delete and move threads without any explanation and any rule to support it. (People = non-moderators) If you found 2 people on this entire board that would come forth and say "Yes, it is OK for moderators to completely remove a thread without explanation or reason, and to cover and ignore the fact that they did it in the first place" I would be heartily surprised.

[Buyza]

Yes, it is OK for moderators to completely remove a thread without explanation or reason, and to cover and ignore the fact that they did it in the first place because they are gods among men and deserve the power to act as tyrants as they see fit!

Only need one more :rollin

....awaits nydia's obnoxious ass to support me.

[Fazin]

I was just going to reply to slant with, "You're begging the retards to come out, and disagree with you for the sake of disagreeing with you." Good thing I didn't warn anyone :/

[Selwen Soulgazer]

of course you notice that you are the only one who has said anythign about that thread. And you are demanding an answer. IF you would have asked politley you would have gotten a decent answer.

[mirdorr]

I defy you to find people that believe it is OK to delete and move threads without any explanation and any rule to support it.

/raise

Eventually, children grow up and learn . In theory.

You don't own this board. When you do, you can do whatever you want. Until then, the people who own this board can do whatever they want. With ZERO justification to you. If you don't understand this by now - well, maybe eventually you'll learn.

Welcome to the real world. And congrats to the mods for keeping this board going for this long in spite of all the idiots.

[Sheur Nuf]

Interpretation for those of you that don't speak retardese:

boy_1: FU you can't play with my ball anymore!
boy_2: WTF can't I play with your ball you SoB
boy_1: I don't have to tell you you dumb MFer nyanya!
boy_2: But that's not fair you unfair PoS!
boy_1: So!
boy_2: You're an AHole!
boy_1: I know you are but what am I?
boy_2: You're a F'in AHole!
boy_1: I know you are but what am I?
boy_2: AHole!
boy_1: I know you are but what am I?
......

[unReasonable]

Heh, if you dont like the way this board is run, go start your own...

I think this has been a long time coming, and I am glad.

Kudos to the moderators for having a backbone.

[Haloface]

'What exactly is NAG for that isn't a homoerotic jerkfest or just retarded stuff?'

- Retarded stuff with a purpose? Homoerotic jerkfest's as insults in a retarded post with purpose?
Purpose being the keyword here, mate. NAG is for FIRE, for FLAMES. If the post isn't going somewhere, then it's a waste of space. Even if that somewhere is a retarded place, it is exactly what NAG is for.
Don't make the fucking stupid assumption that Nearly Anything Goes means "Omgosh we can spam with pointless stuff yippeeee".

'And for those complaining they don't like it... you aren't being forced to read it, they made NAG a seperate section for a reason. '

- No, "bro". Those who are complaining they don't like it, are those who can do something about it. You're damn right we're not being forced to read it, 'cause it's getting locked up, biatch.

[Gekster]

Some of those NAG's were going somewhere, but I guess we should lock them because the people that don't play anymore have no idea what it's about and can't follow it. I can agree that Trilkins post was pointless spam, but some of the others weren't.

[Haloface]

I'm sorry...going somewhere?

- And they're just the ones that were locked. I can see at least 6 below it that are as fucking pointless as those.

So.. going somewhere? Where, exactly, were those constructive threads "going"?

[Haloface]

'because the people that don't play anymore have no idea what it's about '

- Yes, it must be our lack of EverQuest understanding that limits our ability in understanding how "hot" your sister is.

It's all so clear now.

[Fazin]

This from the anti-american thread spammer.

[Haloface]

YES HAR HAR THIS FROM ANTI BUSH GUY ROFLAMEOIEM

Threads in the RLNAG forum go somewhere. Threads, by the majority of you fucking retarded kids, do not.
Read above. Learn. Run free.

And fuck off.

[Fazin]

There's a small difference. If I started threads that were anti-europe, on a board where the majority of the readers were european... need I finish this?

[trimlock]

>Threads in the RLNAG forum go somewhere.

haha someone actually thinks so!! rofllololomghahalmaoomg

[Gekster]

Good job looking at one end of it Halo, it appears that is all you are good for.

[Haloface]

'There's a small difference. If I started threads that were anti-europe, on a board where the majority of the readers were european... need I finish this? '

- Sure.
Because if you'e going to say "Then I would be spamming" then I'll correct you and say no, you'd be creating a good flame fest.
Twat.

'haha someone actually thinks so!! rofllololomghahalmaoomg '

- Aye, guess the 30 ppl who spend pages contributing don't.
HEHHAHAHRHRHRHALOELZ as opposed to, what, just Buyza answering your fucking stupid threads. "Who is gayest, hahahahah, gekob's sister is so hot roffel?!?1/11"

And it seems all you are good for, Gekob, is being abused. Now shut the fuck up.

[MarzMartini]

Good job looking at one end of it Halo, it appears that is all you are good for.

Talk shit when you've seen a vagina. (note: the internet does not count)

I have to side with Halo, Mirr and others here.

You don't like it? Then GET THE FUCK OUT. Make your own board. It's really not that hard. Invite all your little 16 year old friends and have a circle jerk every time everytime Buyz posts some retarded attempt at ebay humor aimed at discrediting some ex-EW player "OMG HE AER TEH EBAY!1 LOLEZ!"

The irony of this whole ordeal, is the fact that Trilikin told everyone else to "get a life". There is nothing worse than some piece of shit getting banned, and coming back a few months later telling people to "get a life". H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-T-E.

And the theads in the RL board actually do go somewhere. I had my doubts at first, but it has turned into a very good forum for debate. I actually enjoy reading through the threads there on a daily basis.

At the end of the day, it's still the Admins and Mods board. They decide what to do with it, and how to enforce it.

THEY DON'T OWE YOU FUCKERS A GOD DAMN THING.

[Gekster]

What is the point of locking a thread if its just spam? If people feel its a shitty post they won't respond, or maybe they will start making fun of the person who posted it. You probably don't even know who Tuatha is Halo, so fuck off.

Marz, I don't really care that much about them locking the threads, but I just want to throw in my opinion since someone already created a thread. You can lock up threads you think are spam, but personally I wouldn't.

[Fazin]

Ok, I'd like to point out that in no way am I talking about Buyza and his posts.

Secondly, Halo, would the majority of that board consider it a flame, even though you do? I sure as hell wouldn't.

Marz, I believe these boards have been here for 3 years. In the last month threads have been locked, which in previous time would not have. It doesn't have to do with Buyza, Trilkin.

For instance, the Tuattha poster (hi Maylen). Ask EW, I'm sure certain people there will regard it as a flame against them directly heh. Inside joke to you, flame to them... nothing here ever encompasses everyone, nor will they all understand it.

[Haloface]

'What is the point of locking a thread if its just spam?'

- To make a point.

TAKE A FUCKING HINT.

[Gekster]

They each had a good amount of posts before they were even locked up, what don't you understand?

[Haloface]

Endless replies of giggling and homosexual advances aren't what I would call criteria for a booming and relevent thread.

You've already completely ignored the threads I gave to you when telling me they were even remotely constructive. Now you seem to be ignoring the point again in that the only fucking idiots who flourish these threads are the little punks who start most of the others.

Even still, most of the replies are by people telling the original poster to shut the fuck up with his inane bullshit.

It all comes down to this: Moderators lock bullshit. And as interesting as your sister being hot is, or Buyza's obsession with people from EW sending him tells, it is, at the end of the day - bullshit that pretty much no one wants to see clogging up the forums.

And thus, god shall reach down and smite him and thy thread shall be locked.

[ThePerfectFlaw]

Yet are goodbye threads anymore constructive? Why wasn't Beo's flame towards me locked? That wasn't very constructive and it damn sure was nobodies business.

Constructive and something people want to read is subjective. Contrary to popular belief around here people have the option of simply just not reading a thread. The 10-15 seconds you wasted perusing the first post in a 'pointless' thread should tell you, "Hey...this thread is pointless!" and then you don't check it anymore unless it suddenly has 60 replies to it the next day. If you spend more then 10 minutes reading somethingawful and are shocked when they make fun of NASA or Tool or pretty much anything...it's your own fucking fault.

Why Kiv locked those threads I don't know. Maybe in some 90's era power woman "I'm putting my foot down" type way that was him making a statement but the reasoning he gave me when I questioned him on it is still valid. There are too many equally valued posters who feel turned off by the pointless yammering of the braindead monkeys. The only way we wouldn't care was if it was Logix complaining.

Now personally, I enjoy reading the inside jokes of NAG more then the psuedo-intellectual circle jerk that goes on in RLNAG. However, whereas it's my duty to read every thread in case some moron decides to try to break the rules of common decency, it's not yours. Unless it's gross pornography, anyone sharing a furry experience or someont posting their home address and asking people to come kill them, etc...if you click on a thread entitled "Talid I want to suck your manly cock" posted by Buyza it's your own damn fault for reading it, not ours for locking it.

What we're trying to do now with the new boards is moderate more closely and have a forum where people will know before reading it that the content inside is not 'kid tested, mother aproved' type content. If you want to watch FD and RiP fight over who can do more cock pushups, then you'll have to put up with me telling Gokuu I want to titty-fuck his sister while wearing a Spongebob Squarepants costume.

This also means that posts like, "Lin you're an ignorant twat" after he posts another one of his pointless tin-foil hat theories that he got from reading everybodies favorite German news source "Scat Pics Weekly" that's going into this new forum. Halo saying, "You're a twat" in response to someone saying Bush is the second coming of Christ will go to that forum.

[Anterak]

Halo saying, "You're a twat" in response to someone saying Bush is the second coming of Christ will go to that forum.
Along with "someone" I hope. ;)

[Crist0]

IMO the mods should have moved the entire board away from the EZ bs a long time ago, the cost for upkeep would be a fraction of what it is here and webspace would even be included(not to mention a much better bulletin board, hell even email and chat..go look at the aor website for pointers).

Missing thread - it's Crydee, you should expect drama from a drama queen...shrug, nod your head, move on. They don't need to explain her justification, she got demoted or whatever for breakin the law.

[Slant Earthshaker]

IF you would have asked politley you would have gotten a decent answer.

What would you know? Youve already pointed out that you dont know why it was locked. In fact every moderator has 'pointed to his left' when questioned about the thread.

Missing thread - it's Crydee, you should expect drama from a drama queen...shrug, nod your head, move on. They don't need to explain her justification, she got demoted or whatever for breakin the law.

The thread Im referring to wasnt the one that Crydee deleted, I was using Crydee as a point that BEFORE if a moderator moved a thread without explanation, that moderator faced punishment. But now when they do the same thing "noone knows anything! ^_^" and any questions about why it was moved is met with the standard "none of your business" or "we dont have to explain anything to you!!!11" bullshit. No, this thread was the one in which (and I dont remember the original content) someone posted a (sorta) racist joke, and a moderator quickly came in and deleted the post. Then I complained about deleting that joke and allowing the entire 'Dirty Joke Thread' to remain intact, pointing out the hypocrisy, and after that the thread disappeared. Imagine that.

[mirdorr]

What's your point? We've addressed this 10 times. You just don't like the answer.

[Slant Earthshaker]

Wrong

[allamar zultheiron]

bah,just add a Everything goes forum.and get it over with.

agree with allamar. make a forum with no rules so you guys have absolutely no good reason for ever touching a single thread in it.

who are you to decide which threads are "cool" enough to keep around and which arent? it is unfair to not present the users with a solid set of rules and enforce them in an unbiased manner.

you obviously made this board for the ayonae ro community. I mean whats it say right on the logo "Server Community Board?" Is it reasonable to let a select few people determine what is community material and what isnt?

Either figure out where you stand on the censorship issue and lay down your solid set of rules or give us an everything goes board and stop telling US what is worthy of OUR time to read/post in.

Either that or get rid of the "Server Community Board" in the logo.

Okey guys.

I just wanted you to know that the criticism you're laying on us is being taken to heart, and has been for some time.

It's our hope that inconsistent moderation and unclear posting policies will be resolved with the launch of ayonae.ro 2.0, detailing what posts belong where and what will be tolerated and what won't.

You are going to have someone who actually plays EQ, moderate any EQ flame threads... right? Locking down that Tuatha flame thread "Tuattha" really was an original flame-type heh. I'm assuming you didn't know anything about it, and lumped it with the rest of the threads you locked.

What happened to the Erudite Beastlord post? Was kind of cool link. Its been deleted.

Or maybe it was just moved to Nuggets...

what posts belong where

Please don't add more forums. Diluting what content now exists would only make the board worse.

There's a little Tuatha in all of us my friends, always remember this :(
