View Full Version : The Tribunal Flameboard

I feel the need to warn you if you venture there. That board is NOT moderated for much content. The only thing we will do is remove posting real life material or things that violate EZ Board's code of conduct. There is no filter for language or "offensive" words. If you post there you are open game for anyone. It's a place for mean spirited fun for the posters, but if you are offended easily, or heck even marginally offended, do not go there.
Yes I am one of the board admins. But don't send me private messages asking to have things removed or to have people stop saying mean things about you on that board, I can not, will not help you with that. It's a no-holds-barred zone and if you can't hang with the regulars, then please stay out of it.
If on the other hand this sounds like fun to you, please do feel free to join in the fray. :)

Hello. I share admin duties on the Trib board with Tanje and a few other supercool folks. She's not exaggerating. The Flameboard is pretty much like your NAG board, except we remove the letter N from the acronym.
There is no real moderation, the rules (such as they are) are available here (http://p073.ezboard.com/fthetribunaldotorgfrm10.showMessage?topicID=30.top ic). Enter at your own risk, and understand the rules before you enter. We DO moderate our other boards, and our RSI board is a cross between your NAG board and your reality board. It's no place for the thin skinned, but it's not an open flame forum either.
We just want to be sure you enjoy the board and know what to expect. We don't employ any filters for language, so you may see words that are unpleasant, but we've had few problems with such things. I hope you DO come try the boards out.. ESPECIALLy those of you who still play EQ. Our LF section needs more posters and information about raids and such.
In any event.. I look forward to new faces and opinions, and even a little mean spirited fun with any that want to brave the Flameboard.
Peace.

Yeah, I have to agree. It didn't look like anything mean and scary to me. Just the same unoriginal kids you can find anywhere on the Internet that get a giggle out of typing the words their parents won't let them say.
I only read the ones on the first page though. Maybe there's some better stuff buried deeper.

Not quite. The POMS list always lived on the Flameboards, and nomination to it generally resulted in a serious investigation of charges.

From what I was able to read, that board seems to be what the blizzard boards would be if they had no rules. 12 year olds throwing out really pathetic insults at each other, then screaming OWN3D!! Nothing offensive unless you haven't spent any time on the internet at all. There's got to be 1000's of other boards filled with trash like that on the internet, heh.

I'm not sure what's worse though, their idea that they think their homoerotic PWND quips are funny, or that Buyza actually thinks the KKK is funny.
Do you think their parents ever thought about turning off the computer, sitting down with them, and beating them?

It's not as though we don't have a "flameboard" of our own. Anything that's not worth our time to read is moved to the Sandbox. The staff and I don't believe reading twelve-year olds (hence the name "Sandbox") throw homoerotic, homophobic, and various combinations of "insults" is worth our time. NAG is for legitimate complaints, good-natured flaming, and bantering.
Anyway teh NAG OWNS!

Question for ya. Who decided what's not worth "our" time? You don't have a "flameboard" (putting it in parenthesis is clue one), you have a board where a group of people get to decide what you read, and how you post. Gimme the Trib board every time. This is of course, just my own opinion. I hope you get to read it for more than a day or two, as I hope I haven't offended the deciders of what's worth "our" time.
When you use words like "our", I believe that should include everyone.. even the people who use the big mean cuss words. Keep your "Good-Natured" (who decides if it's "Good"?) "flaming". I'll pop in to ask questions from time to time (as if ya care), but from the lurkers I've seen, there are a lot more folks checking out the Trib board than you're probably comfortable believing, and CONTINUING to lurk.
Yeah, there are kiddie insults, but there's funny stuff too. Apparently there are ARo folks who think so too. Anyway... hope "We" enjoy "Our" merger!

I KNEW you guys were lurking! Lurking enough to know which posts are new, and waiting for more! Too interesting to stay away... I understand. Being moderated for so long, even as the one being the moderator, can be very stifling. You can talk some too if you ever get any guts. Fun enough to read, might be more fun to participate.

Take a quick look for me. Check the last replied dates on our board, then have a looksee here. Take a look at how many views vs replies on the threads, seriously. Don't try to go there. Iadas is right. Our board is dead, but even dead, its busier than here. It's the only thread that's active today, but outside the one or two snoozers you have here, it's no different.. just funnier. The list of visitors from your boards prove it, but not just for new accounts, but repeat visitors.

It's also sucessfully filtered out the funny shit too apparently. No kidding. I tried hard to read through this stuff, and the only flavor you get is vanilla. Also, the "Sandbox" is where you claim the nastiest of the nasty threads go. There are what.. FIVE threads there? Not one of them is nasty, or even particularly mean spirited.
If you don't care for how it's moderated, why stay? You have at least one more option and all you have to do is choose to filter out the unfunny stuff YOURSELF. There's a concept for ya. I'd still like to know, as I'm now a part of "Our" as a servermate, who actually decides what is worth "Our" time? What are his or her credentials as a decider of what's "good-natured" or "worth our time"? I'd like to meet them so I know what I'd like to read.
Can someone help me out here? Who's the shepherd here?

And therein lies the difference between the people there and the people here. I checked out your board for several days after the merge was announced and I never once did the term "funny" come to mind. Sad, yes.
I'm sure you have baited a few people here with your antics here to get them to come look at your little poo corner of the internet. Grats? But that is all you are doing, trying to bait people here to come over there. Because you need us to interject some veneer of life over there. Enjoy trading barbs with the weak willed.
Yes, the game has changed and there isn't nearly as much to complain about now. Lower population, instances, these have reduced the tensions that led to many of the great NAG boards throughout the heyday of EQ. The difference is the folks over there didn't get the memo. In a pathetic attempt to justify their broken lives they cling to non existant drama like a suckling pig.
When this boards had its great flames, we actually insulted each other with things that hurt. We got to the core. You guys call each other "vagina blood farts" and run away tittering.

Uh huh. It took me one trip to find the vanilla here. One. You came back over several days. Why? ;) That's a pretty clear answer. Hidden in the shit is wit, and you came back looking for more of it. You're just used to having the bad words edited out for you, and afraid to do it for yourself. Hell.. you can even EDIT AND DELETE posts here. There.. you live with your lip. Here.. you can edit or delete your public screw ups. Pathetic.
Do yourself a favor. Come over, have the wool shorn off, and join the rest of the naked, but liberated sheep. When their wool grows back, it'll be black, but they'll be happier to be free from being spoonfed "Good-Natured" Flames and Banter.

Yes, because the most active boards on OUR message board have to do with EQ2 and WOW, don't they? Umm.. oh wait. Heh. Our boards have life and continued existance because we're just in it for the chatting and yes, some for the mean spirited crushing of others (I prefer both, and post even more frequently in our RSI board)
When this boards had its great flames, we actually insulted each other with things that hurt. We got to the core. You guys call each other "vagina blood farts" and run away tittering.
Show a single "great" flame. Not a Vagina Blood Fart, but something that you'd consider a "Great" flame. You want to sit behind a moderated board and coolly insist that you guys REALLY now how to flame and "back when you were a great flamer we said things that REALLY hurt".. let's see it Grampa. You can do it here or there.. I don't care. I just smell a big heaping load of shit and want to flush it along with the rest of your pathetic bluff.
Here or there... Bring it.
Oh yeah. No one seems to want to answer, but I'll keep asking. Who is the person or persons who decide what's worth "our" time? How many of you get a vote in that? Step right up for shearing if you want that wool that's pulled over your eyes clipped.

Does suck. If we get a new batch of them, we're going to have to ration them out. Maybe we can work out a Loot System. People who participate in the "raid" get points to "buy" the rights to wreck new fish. It would almost feel like EQ all over again.

Maybe it's time for an expidition to their boards. Maybe we can reel in a few dozen if we fish over there. I'll give a custom title to the first person that starts a legitimate and decent cross-board flamewar over there. Don't bother going there with "fucklips" and "cocklunches", they're too heavily modded for that. Pick a fight.. drag em here or smack em there, and let it go on for more than a page.. come talk to me about a title.

Is this one of those "Good-Natured" Flames? It's hard to tell. Funny how you guys do it. You respond to ANY flame with how "inarticulate and crude" it is, and how "above it" you are. Sure seems like it's effective, since you decide whats worth "our" time, it's certain you're haughty and high handed "Good Natured" Flames are the only ones that see the light of day.

Actually, I think Grumblin knows an idiot when he sees one. He just happens to like (or be conditioned to like) you enough to protect you from yourself. Do any of you folks who read here but don't post have the stuff to tell me which one of these folks have been deciding what's worth your time? Either they don't want to admit it, or no one knows who's making those decisions. I'm still interested in understanding how they're making those decisions for a whole community.

My "mission" is going well. I'm just sharing the love across the servers. I ordinairily wouldn't bother, but someone has to be the Ambassador of Peace through this merger, and I've nominated myself. I figure if someone like you can decide what's in "our" best interests, I can too! Thanks for the inspiration!
For my first decision as the Ambassador of Peace, I've decided that you're too pompous for "our" tastes. Please go ahead and just put your posts in the sandbox first. We'll go check it out if we like it. You've let your administrative powers go to your head, and offended "our" intelligence by trying to dictate what we should read. I expect you to follow "our" will in this. Let your cronies know about "our" decision too. Thanks.
Please respond with more "good natured" flames and let the "banter" continue! "We" approve of such things.
EDIT: I've made some discoveries. Wonderful board you have here. The Reputation things is a cool way for cowards to send anonymous hatemail to a user. I love it. This is from one brainless and gutless loser..
hey dumbfuck, maybe if you tried to read the posting rules, you'd figure out what is and isn't appropriate here. Stupid dicksuck comments and racism add nothing to the flavor of a board, it just shows the lack of intelligence of the posters.
I don't know what thread this cracksmoker was reading, but I don't recall typing anything racist or any "dicksuck" comments, but I'm willing to learn!

I assume I hit a nerve since you felt the need to quote every line of my post. If I actually cared about you, I would be flattered.
I notice you keep repeating the same theme over and over, that we are overmoderated, in hopes that repeating it will make it true. And yet, your posts still stand. You state that we are used to having the bad words filtered out. And yet, I can see every line of your profanity just fine. You even admit in your first post that you moderate your other sections and you try to call us out for moderating here?. We have a place for those flameboard type messages, just no one posts there. The only times I can remember a thread being actually deleted, going all the way back to our EZboard days was when real life information was posted and a few spam attacks.
I recall you guys dealt with spam attacks, correct? But instead of actually putting work into fixing the problem, you guys just globally banned people from posting more than once a day. Kind of the lazy way out.
Since you can't be honest with us, at least be honest with yourself. You aren't here to try to show us the err of our ways or convince you have something better to offer. The fact of the matter is you and Tanje came in here to "warn" us about your flameboard. People here went to check it out and by and large the opinion was it was boring and your little ego is now lashing out at us. Afraid of losing your all-powerful EZboard moderator status? Seek help.

Naw.. I do that because it's annoying. I think you're flattered anyway. I've made it look like you're more imporatnt than you really are. You scratch my back I'll scratch yours and all that.

Oh it's true without repeating it, but I'm just that kinda guy. You'll learn to deal with it. I'm looking for answers to a few questions is all.. but all I get is garbage back.
And yet, your posts still stand. You state that we are used to having the bad words filtered out. And yet, I can see every line of your profanity just fine.
You too? What are you smoking? Show me the "profanity". If you're really looking at what I've typed so far and calling it profanity, you're so thin-skinned it's amazing. Show me anyway, so I know where your boundaries are. I'd hate to be labelled a Rebel.

You don't just moderate, you suffocate. You post warnings so general that people can't help but wonder in any negative post that they'll just be edited or moderated. Say the word "fuck" and you might get a "Warning Point". That's some funny stuff. Even if you don't regularly DO it, you still warn against it?
I recall you guys dealt with spam attacks, correct? But instead of actually putting work into fixing the problem, you guys just globally banned people from posting more than once a day. Kind of the lazy way out.
Funny though. It worked. Do we have rules and moderate? Yeah.. but we certainly don't go to the extremes you do. Funniest thing.. in most threads I've typed in, the only people who are coming to defend the moderation are the moderators.
Since you can't be honest with us, at least be honest with yourself. You aren't here to try to show us the err of our ways or convince you have something better to offer.
We do actually, but that's my own opinion. Tanje came here out of an honest concern. She's like that. I came here to back her up.
The fact of the matter is you and Tanje came in here to "warn" us about your flameboard. People here went to check it out and by and large the opinion was it was boring and your little ego is now lashing out at us.
No. We really came to warn you. As the King of Arrogantjerkland, you're probably assuming you know "by and large" what the "opinion" was (talk about Egos), but I think you're just used to believing that people all believe the way you do. That's why you feel qualified to decide what's worth "our" time.

It's truth time. You're no better than anyone posting here, nor more fit to decide what is appropriate than any person reading this.

(letting users edit their own posts in a "Rant" forum is classically stupid)
Buadyen
04-15-2005, 01:42 PM
BTW.. how do you all live with this kinda set of rules?
Verbal Warning Verbal warning 0
(For what?)
This would probably get a verbal warning:
Post 1: "Grats guild Y on beating zone/mob Z"
Post 2: "Yeah, too bad you guys suck, you trained my guild X in zone W two years ago."
Obstruction Spam, excessive off-topic etc 1
(So you get points for changing the topic of a thread?)
Seems reasonable to me, since you could just as easily start a new thread if you want to discuss that new topic.
Continual posting of "I like pie" in various threads would also likely get you warned (and the "I like pie" posts split off to the Sandbox.)
Inappropriate images/language Excessive / Inappropriate images or language 1
(Who gets to decide appropriate? I'll give you that it has to be work-safe, but outside that.. who's the Magic Decider of Appropriateness?)
The mods often don't make this determination on their own. If something's not blatantly safe for work and a mod rules that it's inappropriate, then there were likely several PMs or reports on that thread. (You know, that little "report bad post" button on every post?)
Signature offenses Inappropriate signatures 1
(Who decides (see above)?)
Clearly non-work-safe sigs would run afoul of this, as would any that generate excessive compliants from posters. Also, repeated use of signatures that violate the rules would also generate a warning. The sig rules are posted here (http://forums.ayonae.ro/showthread.php?t=5459) if they aren't posted anywhere else.
Respect my authoritah! - Warning Blatant rebellion against authority 1
(Hello.. who's authority? How does one Rebel? In the movies, I've always cheered for the Rebels. I want to be one.)
Do you really need this one explained? If you do, I guess that explains why you're so attached to your little flameboard.
Flaming / Flamebaiting When done in inappropriate sections 2
(I actually agree with this one.. go figure)
Advertisiment - light Inappropriate advertising for services 2
(Agree)
Hatemongering Racism, anti-religious slurs etc 3
(Agree, but only to ignore it, or to make the slurrer sorry for the slur)
Advertising - heavy Inappropriate advertising for services 4
(Agree.. but who decides what's light or heavy?)
Again, this should be pretty self explanatory. One thread with occaisional bumps would be "light". One or multiple threads with frequent bumps to keep them at the top of the page would be "heavy".
Harassment Posting RL info/pictures etc 5
(So what we did to Martiniman woulda got us banned here?)
It's not clear what "what we did to Martiniman" was... but if it involved photoshopping genitalia on a picture of them, or posting their phone number/address in an attempt to get people to harass them, then yes, you probably would have been banned here.
Also, thread stalking someone would likely also generate a ban. (Where "thread stalking" means you follow a person's posts around and post (sometimes unrelated) inflammatory remarks.) Zilor's (grymy)obsession with Palimax is a good example here.
Ebaying Soliciting in game items for real life cash 5
(So if Ebayers are a part of the community, you feel it's AOK to stop them from being part of the community because they make money from dummies with more money than sense? We hate em too, but we just ridicule the buyer and won't group with em. This is one of those decisions made in "Our" best interest by the Naz... er admins apparently. If they're trying to actually EBay on the boards.. ban em. If they're just doing it and its found out.. who are they bothering? I suspect its the famous "Deciders of Our Best Interests")
I can't recall that anyone's been banned from the boards for being "caught" in the act of eBaying.
EBay-type posts in the Bazaar section usually got locked down, and the people who started the buy/sell thread probably got banned, but I can't recall anyone getting banned as the result of a "Ha, ha so-and-so is an EBay loser" thread.
Respect my authoritah! - Ban Repeated blatant rebellion against authority 5
(Authority again. RESPECT ME OR BE BANNED!!! Megalomania at it's finest. Ok Sheeple.. take me to your leader that I might rebel against him!)
Who's authority am I in danger of rebelling against? I have a feeling he or she probably knows what "Our" best interests are, and I need someone to lead me on to a better life!! Anybody know?
Again, this should be pretty explanatory.
Anyway.. as Ambassador... I hereby declare that all the people opressed by the current deciders of "Our" best interest will find refuge over at the Tribunal. True.. the Flameboard may not be a friend to the easily offended, but who IS a friend to the easily offended?
Refuge? On an EZboard, especially one with the lame "2 post per day until 10 posts" limit? Hardly.
The thing you fail to realize is that the mods didn't just decide one day that the current state of the boards is how things are going to be. It is something that has evolved over time from the first day the A Ro EZboard was created. The current state of the board is the result of public and private feedback from members of the community.
This board has a better foundation than the Tribunal board (VBulletin > EZboard), and would be the better place to host the post-merge forum. I'd bet that the moderators and administrators would be willing to work with the Tribunal mods and admins to transition things (they'd probably even consider renaming the Sandbox ;) ).
If you have questions or issues with the moderation of this board, you're bringing them up in the wrong manner. It's been tried before, and it didn't work.

Filatal = non-moderator, just your typcial EQ playing poster.
Filiden = ayonae.ro EQII board moderator.
Some of your recent posts were addressing Filatal as if he were Filiden.
Specifically, this:
You even admit in your first post that you moderate your other sections and you try to call us out for moderating here?. We have a place for those flameboard type messages, just no one posts there. The only times I can remember a thread being actually deleted, going all the way back to our EZboard days was when real life information was posted and a few spam attacks.

The unattributed quote is from Filatal, and you were posting it as if he were a moderator. Oops!
(They were taken verbatim from your post, Dante. They are listed as separate quotes because I can't be bothered to make nested quotes look like they should (if it's even possible.))
(Abusive self-editing (ie., deleting the entire contents of all of your posts, or going back and editing your posts to make replies to it look stupid or invalid) will get oneself banned.
Editing for clarity or to correct grammatical or spelling errors is fine.)

Filiden (and ********) have as much right to post here as you do. Filiden, being the moderator of the EQII board here likely also has access to any super-seekret mod-only boards here, and acutally has more say in the daily goings-on of this board than you do.

Continual posting of "I like pie" in various threads would also likely get you warned (and the "I like pie" posts split off to the Sandbox.)
So your threads never spin off into tangential topics? You have to stay true to the title of the thread or risk "points". Tanje broke the rules by posting a bit of nonsense to lighten the mood, eh? I know you're going to say that you used the word continual, but even if she did it repeatedly, how in the heck is that harmful? Are you saying all the readers prefer the mood unlightened, or is that just your OPINION?
(You know, that little "report bad post" button on every post?)
Yeah.. I see it. Anyone who needs it is basically a clueless tool, but I certainly see it. Whats wrong with typing a post for all to see that says, "That offends me" so that the community can understand the sensibilities of its members?
Do you really need this one explained? If you do, I guess that explains why you're so attached to your little flameboard.
I still need it explained, maggot. If I called an admin a slimy buttfucker, would that be disrespecting authority? If I called a NON Admin a slimy buttfucker, would the penalty be less severe?
Refuge? On an EZboard, especially one with the lame "2 post per day until 10 posts" limit? Hardly.
Just for you, chuckles. On 3/30 Tanje posted this in our Announcements section. Your comments show how hard you've tried to go see our boards, and you even want to sound like you have some authority on the subject, but you missed that one eh?
I think I removed it. I tried anyway lol.
We may have new members roaming around from Ayonae Ro and I didn't want to restrict them. If we get idiots sneaking in while the gates are open we will just deal with it.
The thing you fail to realize is that the mods didn't just decide one day that the current state of the boards is how things are going to be. It is something that has evolved over time from the first day the A Ro EZboard was created. The current state of the board is the result of public and private feedback from members of the community.
Oh I believe you about the private feedback. A few principled idiots did all this. I'd ask you to show me the public feedback that put this kind of heirarchy into place, and then show me where the public voted on it. We don't run things by democracy either, but we also don't preach as if we're speaking for the entire community.
This board has a better foundation than the Tribunal board (VBulletin > EZboard), and would be the better place to host the post-merge forum. I'd bet that the moderators and administrators would be willing to work with the Tribunal mods and admins to transition things (they'd probably even consider renaming the Sandbox ;) ).
Opinions are like... well you get the point. Things would have to change a WHOLE lot for any kind of actual board merging to happen. I don't like your "rules" and I don't decide for my community what they want to read. We already have rules for individual forums. They're not even very clear, but no flaming is no flaming, and we have ONE board for that.
If you have questions or issues with the moderation of this board, you're bringing them up in the wrong manner. It's been tried before, and it didn't work.
Oh yeah? When was it tried? Who tried it? What IS the proper manner? If unity is what we're aiming for, we've got a monstrous gulf to cross.

I poked into the Tribunal board a bit, saw a lot of duplication but a glaring difference in the Flame Board philosophy versus NAG. IMO let both boards run concurrently. That way the folks who enjoy the Flame Board on Tribunal can keep it, those who want a moderated NAG can keep theirs. Let natural selection decide.

I don't have any issue discussing parts of my personal life that I wish to share on these boards; but he had no business bringing my girlfriend and the mother of my daughter and our relationship onto these boards.

Sanchek doesn't play EQ. Sanchek is also one of the admins of this board.

No. We really came to warn you. As the King of Arrogantjerkland, you're probably assuming you know "by and large" what the "opinion" was
Hmmm.
Or for anyone with an IQ above 50
Yeah, I have to agree. It didn't look like anything mean and scary to me. Just the same unoriginal kids you can find anywhere on the Internet that get a giggle out of typing the words their parents won't let them say.
I caught an occasional spark of good humor there, but it mostly looks like a bunch of kids with an unnatural fascination with homosexuality and bestiality whose mothers really need to rethink giving them that AOL account.
Theres only so much "you're an ass kissing penis faggot bitch jackass who probably has sex with is dad!" type of insults I can stomach.
Oh noz colorful adjectives, let me call the board mommy!
I'm skeered.
From what I was able to read, that board seems to be what the blizzard boards would be if they had no rules. 12 year olds throwing out really pathetic insults at each other, then screaming OWN3D!! Nothing offensive unless you haven't spent any time on the internet at all.
Yeah, I love a good night of calling my friends cock-faced ass-masters, and the other high-larious things those construction paper South Park kids said
See, I didn't just make up the fact that the general feeling about the flameboard was "yea, we did that when we were that age". I'm not even cool enough to be an EQ2 moderator, much less would I try to speak for a large group of people without having a good idea about what they were thinking.
You keep knocking the moderation here, and while I haven't always agreed with them, there isn't anything they just delete. It's just the style of flaming you are used to is a little passe for us. I'm sorry you are having a hard time with that. I'm sure its a real blow to your world order to realize that the Trib's flameboard isn't the end all be all of cool on the internet, but after you get over the shock, you'll be a better person for the experience.

Duh. I was using it to illustrate that maybe a person or two wasn't so upset that the moderation methods were being questioned. I got yer chump right here btw punk.
I don't have any issue discussing parts of my personal life that I wish to share on these boards; but he had no business bringing my girlfriend and the mother of my daughter and our relationship onto these boards. His ban, for the record, wasn't for that - IIRC - it was because he told the mods to go fuck themselves when they asked him to not be such a massive waste of keystrokes.
That viewable somewhere? If you brought your girlfriend and the mother of your daughter out onto the boards for the public to see, shame on you. He shouldn't be banned for your idiocy. As for the reason he was, I'd very much like to see how it happened. The way you type it, it sounds like it went this way..
ADMIN: Trillkin, stop being such a massive waste of keystrokes.
TRILLKIN: Go fuck yourself. I hate Pie!
ADMIN: You're Banned for two offenses!
IF that's how it went down, that's a heaping, stinking, maggot-ridden pile of bullshit. If you can't see that, I can see why YOU all cling to your little NAG board, to paraphrase a good friend. If any of you feel you wouldn't be offended enough to tell someone to go fuck theirselves if you were told you were a massive waste of keystrokes, then you're a wool coat away from being a sheep (doh!

The Trilkin business may be old enough that it got pushed off the old EZboard before we migrated from it.
Palimax's summary is the "view from 90,000 ft", it's very much a high-level summary of the whole deal.
(I used Zilor instead of Triklin as an example because I wasn't sure if Palimax wanted Trilkin's name mentioned ever again.)
Dante, get this through your head: Ayonae Ro's NAG forum is not the analogue of the Tribunal Flameboard. Ayonae Ro's analogue of the Flameboard is the Sandbox.

I remember this pretty well. Trilkin brought the whole thing up from RL knowledge (it wasn't made fair game by Palimax, Trilkin just happened to be a RL aquaintance). I thought the real reason he was banned was his intentional spamming of the board to piss off the mods though. He was guilty of that as well.

Heh.. already having changes. Good bye edit feature. A positive step, even if the bogus "It must have happened during the changeover" had to be used to make it happen.
It's just the style of flaming you are used to is a little passe for us. I'm sorry you are having a hard time with that. I'm sure its a real blow to your world order to realize that the Trib's flameboard isn't the end all be all of cool on the internet, but after you get over the shock, you'll be a better person for the experience.
Just wanted to edit in a reply to the Queen of Arrogantjerkland. That the 100th time or so I've heard how "passe" our "Flaming Style" is to you. Where is YOUR style? Is it in the archives somewhere? Or is that all there is to it? "We were SO better than you back in the Day". Heh.. whoopee.

Just so ya know.. I don't post much on the weekends, if at all. I'll see you fine folks next week. Let me know what "our" opinion is of my heading to the movies. I may see Sin City, but I want to be sure it's on "Our" approved list.

Correct. That's not exactly an epiphany Dante had. Talid just reminded me to reset the permissions that got lost in the rollback.
Dante, since you're taking up the position of the repressed freedom fighter that the man's holding down, you might want to know we've banned less than 10 active posters (not counting one off EBay/IGE spammers, etc) even if you go all the way back to the EZBoard days.
Gosh, we're so busted. I have Hitler hidden in my basement, giving me tips on how to oppress the masses. Don't tell, okay?

Correct, editing wasn't allowed in NAG when we were still on the EZboard.
Dante, Sanchek isn't hiding behind the "changeover". After we switched to this board, there was a machine crash that resulted in a rollback of this board, and some configuration settings and other things were lost.
(Unfortunately, we can't claim that the style/look-and-feel settings were one of the things that were lost. ;) )
I remember sending a message to one of the mods shortly after we switched from EZboard about editing in NAG, but I can't find it (were private messages one of the things that were lost in the rollback?)

So your threads never spin off into tangential topics? You have to stay true to the title of the thread or risk "points". Tanje broke the rules by posting a bit of nonsense to lighten the mood, eh? I know you're going to say that you used the word continual, but even if she did it repeatedly, how in the heck is that harmful? Are you saying all the readers prefer the mood unlightened, or is that just your OPINION?
Natural thread drift is OK. Deliberately trying to derail a thread into another topic isn't. If you want to discuss a new topic, start a new thread. Don't derail an existing thread. It's not that hard to figure out.
Unless you're talking about food, dessert dishes, or miscellaneous pastries, posting innane things such as "I like pie" would constitute spam.
(You know, that little "report bad post" button on every post?)
Yeah.. I see it. Anyone who needs it is basically a clueless tool, but I certainly see it. Whats wrong with typing a post for all to see that says, "That offends me" so that the community can understand the sensibilities of its members?
On a fast moving board, that such reports can be the only way to be sure that a mod will see a post that violates the rules. Ok, so this isn't hardly a "fast moving" board anymore, but it can still alert a mod to a trouble thread without adding to the trouble it's causing. An "I'm offended" post would do little more than add to the trouble of the thread.
I still need it explained, maggot. If I called an admin a slimy buttfucker, would that be disrespecting authority? If I called a NON Admin a slimy buttfucker, would the penalty be less severe?
Again: this isn't that complicated. If a mod posts a "do not do this" thread, and you deliberately do that, that's rebelling. It's pretty common sense.
As for name-calling? It depends on the context. Again, common sense.
Just for you, chuckles. On 3/30 Tanje posted this in our Announcements section. Your comments show how hard you've tried to go see our boards, and you even want to sound like you have some authority on the subject, but you missed that one eh?
"How hard you've tried to go see our boards?" Puh-leeze. Clicking the posted link to your board is "hard"?
Since my EQ guild uses EZboard for their forums, and since I have a Global EZboard account, I didn't even have to jump through any registration hoops to visit it.
Oh I believe you about the private feedback. A few principled idiots did all this. I'd ask you to show me the public feedback that put this kind of heirarchy into place, and then show me where the public voted on it. We don't run things by democracy either, but we also don't preach as if we're speaking for the entire community.
Why should I do your research for you? There's 28 pages of NAG history you can look through for yourself, as well as 43 pages of General history, not to mention the other boards.
Some of it may not be on this board because it got pushed off the EZboard before we migrated. A lot of it is in threads started by people that have been banned or just stopped coming.
Oh yeah? When was it tried? Who tried it? What IS the proper manner? If unity is what we're aiming for, we've got a monstrous gulf to cross.
Again, there is plenty of board history you can read through. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that the way that you're proceeding is not the way to create unity.

If you brought your girlfriend and the mother of your daughter out onto the boards for the public to see, shame on you. He shouldn't be banned for your idiocy. As for the reason he was, I'd very much like to see how it happened. The way you type it, it sounds like it went this way..
ADMIN: Trillkin, stop being such a massive waste of keystrokes.
TRILLKIN: Go fuck yourself. I hate Pie!
ADMIN: You're Banned for two offenses!
IF that's how it went down, that's a heaping, stinking, maggot-ridden pile of bullshit. If you can't see that, I can see why YOU all cling to your little NAG board, to paraphrase a good friend.A couple of things first. I apologize for the massive quote, but I wanted to make certain that I got your entire rambling mess in it so I could respond correctly. Also, I do hope you're enjoying your 15 minutes of fame. Your F5 key must have the lettering worn off on it by now.
Trillkin chose to make matters of my personal life public. Most long-standing members of this board are aware that I have (or, more correctly now - had) a long-term live-in girlfriend whom played EverQuest with me [we did not meet that way] and whom I have a daughter by. The intimate details of that relationship are my business, her business and nobody elses. Tt has nothing to do with EverQuest; it has nothing to do with my guild; and it has absolutely nothing to do with the forums at ayonae.ro.
Trillkin, in an attempt to win/keep the favor of his girlfriend - chose to "expose" elements of my personal life, details of my relationship with my girlfriend, details of her and my [friendly] relationship with his sort-of-girlfriend (against her will as well).
His antics weren't so bad as to earn him a ban outright; but, combined with flaunting his "I don't need to follow no stinkin' rules" attitude, he eventually earned himself a trip to the land of the banned -- just like he did from our message boards for posting similar real-life information. I've got a tough skin. I can take a little poking -- but you leave my family out of things.
And, before you get your chest all puffed out, and your prehensile tail all ruffled, I'm not making threats. I'm just saying things the way they are. I'm a man who values his family, and their right to be kept off these message boards, highly.
So, anyway, it was a fantastic story you wrote - but you're only completely wrong.
Now Zilor, on the other hand, stalks me, but he keeps it to the matters at hand :)

There's a movie I happen to like called the Princess Bride. In it, there is this fellow who constantly uses the phrase "INCONCEIVABLE".

He's the laughing stock of the boards, but maybe you and he have a point. I don't think so however.
To me (and many of my associates) the phrase "I don't like pie", is nothing that a person with common sense couldn't either ignore or realize why it was used. Oftentimes to lighten the mood, or just to be a wiseass.. but to us, common sense says that it's nothing to moderate. Apparently you have a different version of common sense here. Just need to point that out, and make it CRYSTAL clear to any Trib posters the kind of things you moderate here.
It doesn't take a genius to figure out that the way that you're proceeding is not the way to create unity.
Doesn't take a pompous ass to try and convince me you're not overmoderated.. oh wait.. maybe it does. You're right though.. Natural Selection will win out. It weeded out the weaklings in the Server Merger after all. ;)

Regardless, Dante, we all bitched and moaned about moderation when we first come across it, just as you are now sweetie. But we've become accustomed to it, and it's really not that bad now that everything has settled in.
If you're looking for some mindless flameboard content, feel free to look in the posts on page 2-4 of the sandbox.
As for who decides what's right and what isn't, Sanchek generally deems this, and he's very reasonable, more so of late than at the start.

So you'd REALLY give a warning for someone stating they did or did not care for pastry in the middle of a thread? REALLY?
Depending on the context, I would. A person new to the boards would probably get a private message saying "Yo dude, stay on topic. Pastry goes in the Bread^H^H^H^H^HSandbox."
Someone with a more troubled record would get a more stern warning.
In either case, they would probably then get split to the Sandbox.
Would it? If a threads in trouble, a thread's in trouble. The Tribunal board is bigger than yours, has been, but I've NEVER seen the board so busy it wasn't possible for even one moderator to stay on top of the threads. I don't care how you do it to be honest. I'm here to understand for my people how you handle things. Pie is a problem only because pie SHOULDN'T be a problem.
*Yawn* "My e-peen is bigger than your e-peen."
Is the Tribunal Board really bigger than this board?
Let's see.... if you total the current posts on each board, you get this:
Current post totals
---------------------
Tribunal : 64849
Ayonae Ro : 68997
And since we're playing with meaningless numbers, I decided to add up the numbers of my guild's forum:
Current post totals
---------------------
Vallis Aspectus: 69399
Holy shit! Even my guild's board is bigger than the Tribunal's board.
Pie is a problem if it's posted in a thread that has nothing to do with pie. If you want to post about pie, start a thread in the Sandbox and have at it.
There's a movie I happen to like called the Princess Bride. In it, there is this fellow who constantly uses the phrase "INCONCEIVABLE". Another fella caught him using that phrase too much and called him on it. Let me do the same. We have an old, mentally challenged person who has stories about Common Sense too.

Just need to point that out, and make it CRYSTAL clear to any Trib posters the kind of things you moderate here.
Actually, it is pretty much common sense: if you don't have anything to add that's related to a topic, then don't add anything. "I (don't) like pie" is only applicable to topics about foodstuffs, it doesn't belong in a pissing match between two guilds. It doesn't work to "lighten the mood"... the people that are the main participants in the discussion will just ignore it anyway.
On boards like EZboard, all those posts do is take up space and clutter threads. The extra posts eventually wind up driving up the costs of the board for those that contribute monitarily to the community.
You're really making a much bigger deal of this than it is.

Dear Dante:
As someone who has a reputation for of being one of the most verbose posters that this board has ever had, I'd like to tell you to take yourself, your spuriously formed and wildly inaccurate opinions about the past history of this board and its moderation, and the bag of hot air you rode in on and get stuffed please :). There is no need for these boards to fuse, assuming, at this point, that we'd have any desire to; it seems to me that linkage, perhaps a merged section at best, should be sufficient, as both communities consist largely of folks who no longer play EQ in any case....
Historically, this board has had a *very* lively NAG section, with quite a bit of abuse (and much more creative abuse than that infantile dribble I spotted in your romper room over on the Tribunal that y'all seem to think is such hot stuff) not only tolerated, but even encouraged as long as it did not include RL personal insults, threats, or racism/sexism. It has slowly wound down over the last year and a half or so, as the game has aged, folks have moved on to other things, and the address/management of the board has changed and we had an unfortunate long outage and data loss last winter; but that loss has not been, by and large, due to 'oppressive' management here.
(Help, help, I'm being repressed!) What moderation we have had has been the bare minimum necessary to keep the place civil and out of the courts, free from advertisement, and has been instrumental in keeping the board, especially as people have become tired of/board with EQ, from degenerating into a bunch of poo-flinging, gay sex references, and heated debate about the merits of pie vs bacon.
As far as the whole Trilkin issue goes, Trillkin was not only a poster child for attention deficit disorder, he had a pathological need to make people pay attention to him... at any price. Positive, negative, it didn't make any difference, and his tactics (in game and out) ranged from making hundreds of inane threads about nothing (or spamming people with Dr. Demento songs in tells and glomming onto various folks and 'stalking' them in game), to dragging people's personal lives into the open when he (delightedly, I think, for it always seemed to be a game with him) realized that he'd struck a nerve with them and couldn't get any more attention out of them any other way. Eventually the 'stakes' of his little game reached the point where the collective patience of the board community was pushed over the edge, and he well and truly earned his ban.
The A. Ro board community has banned *very* few players over the years (Kivorn, and earlier Edeina, were *very* tolerant, often coming to the defense of posters who were 'cruising for a ban' or otherwise wildly unpopular as it were), but has lost quite a few over the last year simply due to attrition, game aging, the board management/address changeover/crash last winter, and the loss of one of our more... colorful moderators and his pack of homoerotic syncophants a few months ago. Had you come by, say, six months ago, your eyes could have feasted on all the references to gay sex with goats that your heart desired, but it would be a stretch to call it content.
As a former player on A. Ro. for four years, I can appreciate the benefit of having a shared community board once the servers merge, but as someone whose 'home' has been *this* community, and no longer plays EQ (as is the situation for much of the population of your server board, it sounds like), I would be unlikely to visit such a shared board if it resulted in the loss of my former community; it just wouldn't be 'home' to me. I suspect that there are quite a few on your side that feel the same, and it seems to me that shooting for or worrying about 'unity' at this point is putting the cart before the horse. If such a move becomes desirable among the folks on the merged server who are still *playing* EQ, it will most likely proceed organically and out of a *positive* desire for such in any case...

I didn't even notice it had changed but whatever!
As for thread derailment, I only did it to really dumb threads but apparently that's not allowed anymore so I've promised not to do it. I never turned threads into pie crap because those aren't funny to me for the same reason image macros and catchphrases aren't funny to me. If you hate this board so much and since you have absolutely no investment in the community, in terms of knowing people and having a reputation or what the fuck ever, just don't post here. I really doubt anyone would lose sleep over it. You're just going over stuff that people who've been registered here for YEARS argued about 6months ago and it's not going to change now.

Just one question--if everything posted here must reflect the opinions of the mods, and there is no room for originality or something that someone might find offensive, then what is the point of even putting up the pretense of having engaged in group discussion? If I was looking for Palimax's opinion, I'd figure out where his livejournal was and read it. Not only would I get the same stuff, but I'd also know that he was feeling 'angsty', and that he was listening to Moby or some other pseudointellectual-yet-easy-enough-to-digest-that-it-won't-betray-your-relative-unintelligence crap.
Does the flameboard suck now? Indeed it does. It didn't always, though. It was hilarious at one point, and from time to time it kicks up again. But even at its worst, its far more entertaining than this lobotomized collection of non-thought.
I realize that you're trying to keep anyone from getting offended, but is that really a good thing? Especially on your "Nearly Anything Goes" board? What if I told you that I found insufferable arrogance and elitist condescension offensive? Would you run along and ban yourselves, or tell me to fuck off? And, assuming that you told me to fuck off, you'd be one step down the road to evolving (yes, evolving, contrary to what you'd like to believe) into a flameboard. Have fun grappling with that.

Oct, did you actually read anything about our boards?
Who said that everything here must reflect the opinion of the mods? I disagree with a bunch of people's viewpoints, and just because I don't agree with them means that I will move posts to the Sandbox. As long as you debate with civility (that is, not throwing out death threats, which by law we are required to report if you have involvement or knowledge in a criminal activity, posting porn, and throwing out personal insults, which by default will be moved to the Sandbox, and not staying on task) we don't change a thing on NAG. I think these requirements are very reasonable, from a legal and personal perspective. In fact, if you have a good discussion and I disagree with you, I may not agree with you, but I will fight to the death your right to say it.
A lot of you are getting the wrong idea that NAG is the Flamebox equivalent. I will say it again: It is not. The Sandbox is our completely unmoderated area. As long as your posts stay within the conformity of law, we will not remove any posts. The Moderators is to make sure no one is harrassed or harmed playing on our boards. We simply want to build a community. And we want to cover our legal butts as well. If you post a goatse picture in your post, we will remove it and we will add you to read-only group (Morons) because we do not have adult verification and you bring us into serious legal trouble.
Let me ask you: I dislike this thread; does that mean I've locked, deleted, or moved the thread? So far, most of the discussions have continued with civility. The Board Administration will not intervene if there is no warrant for it. Understand that we don't act on a whim; we act because we have rules. The only forum for which 90% of the rules don't apply is in the Sandbox. There are other threads, threads that disagree with our philosophy. Just search for a few.
Let me ask you again, are our warnings so unreasonable? Even though we only ban you for fourteen days rather than indefinitely? We give out lots of second-chances; in most cases you will definitely have a second chance.
Advertisement - 2 to 4 points
Racism/Anti-religious slurs - 3 points
Harassment/Invasion of Privacy - 5 points
eBay/Account Sales - 5 points
Respect my authoritah! - 5 points
Let me go through each one. Advertisement. If you didn't friggin' pay me to use my bandwidth to advertise your services, you don't have the right to post here. You AGREED to the ACCEPTABLE USE POLICY when you signed up here.
Racism - We don't enforce this in the Sandbox forum. Take a look at how many threads use "fags," "dirty jews," and so forth in the Sandbox forum. I did a search for the word "fag (http://search.php?searchid=27003)," and found 66 results. Furthermore, race is a very touchy issue. I wouldn't go there.
Harassment - Do I need to explain this? If you violate this rule, you violate the rights of others. If you post real-life information without other people's permissions, you could be sued. If the poster really wanted to get you back, they could subpoena us for IP records, subpoena your ISP, and get your information. Our Privacy Policy affirms that we have a natural right to commitment, and our forums is the medium through which one's privacy could potentially be intruded upon.
eBaying - Once again, I am not Player Auctions. If you want to post here with ads selling your account, I am going to friggin' kill the thread - see Advertisement. This also a violation of EverQuest's EULA/copyright, although not commonly enforced. This is five points because we have 4 points for advertisement, plus one point for EULA violation.
Respect My Authority - If you've been told to stop doing one of the stuff above and you ignore us warning after warning after warning, there's only so many times we'll continue to let you off the hook before we start getting serious about it. If we told you to stop posting porno on the boards and you continue doing it, I have no problem giving you this warning. And this warning isn't so bad. You are only banned for 14 DAYS even if you do get us into a legally sticky situation.
We only reserve the Morons group (read-only status) or IP-bans for the very worst, people who make the boards an unfun place. Look, we have rules because we want to foster a community, not anarchy. If you want anarchy, go to a forum like mastabeta.com. And even so, they ban people. So much for anarchy.
And let me ask you, what is wrong with our AUP? ezboard has an AUP albeit a more restricting one. We have to provide an AUP since we are an independent bulletin board. Let me post it again and tell me if it's unreasonable:
(a) material which threatens or abuses others, or which is defamatory or libelous, or which is invasive of another's privacy; (THIS IS REQUIRED BY LAW, USC TITLE 14)
(b) material for which you do not have the right to post, including the proprietary material of any third party; (THIS IS REQUIRED BY LAW, USC TITLE 17)
(c) material which advocates illegal activity or discusses an intent to commit an illegal act; (THIS IS REQUIRED BY LAW, USC TITLE 42, Conspiracy to interfere with Civil Rights)
(d) material for advertising or commercial solicitation; (If you don't fucking pay me, you don't have right to post it here)
(e) material which is vulgar, obscene, pornographic, or indecent; or (We have no way to VERIFY you are 18 older; we are not going to call up each one of you to find out if you are 18 or older)
(f) material which does not pertain directly to the subject matter of the particular forum. (We move these threads to the Sandbox)
Rights: Ayonae.Ro reserves the right to monitor the forums to determine compliance with these Terms and Conditions, [...] Notwithstanding these rights, you remain solely responsible for the content of your postings. [...]
Penalties: (a) the issuance of written or verbal warnings; (b) the suspension or termination of the ability to participate in forums; or (c) any other reasonable and appropriate measures necessary to enforce to Policy. Sanctions may vary.
Believe it or not, you agreed to give us the right to monitor the forums how we see fit when you registered. You clicked "I agree." If you would like me to do so, I will happily deactivate your account if you would like to rescind this agreements. It's still not too late.

Is that one of those rhetorical questions, or are you too dumb to count?
me momma didnt not teech me to count so gud. sory
What's worse? That I might have asked a rhetorical question, or that you probably went back and actually counted?
I mean, he's calling us sheep and here you are riding to his rescue. Come on, gotta have something better than that up your sleeves. You make it sound like you people are the kings of flame.....and we're being called sheep.... and you're riding out to save him. Getting his back and all.
While we may be sheep, you sound like Dante's bitch to me.

Just one question--if everything posted here must reflect the opinions of the mods, and there is no room for originality or something that someone might find offensive, then what is the point of even putting up the pretense of having engaged in group discussion? If I was looking for Palimax's opinion, I'd figure out where his livejournal was and read it. Not only would I get the same stuff, but I'd also know that he was feeling 'angsty', and that he was listening to Moby or some other pseudointellectual-yet-easy-enough-to-digest-that-it-won't-betray-your-relative-unintelligence crap.Interesting....but wrong.
First, the mods here don't care what we do or say about anything, provided we're not posting real-word personal details, fostering a ethnicist or racist agenda, pointlessly derailing threads, or breaking the law where this server sits. Beyond a couple simple rules, we can post whatever the hell we want. I guess most of us actually feel the board is a better place without Buyza's "KKK-penis" signature everywhere - but I guess we're not hardcore enough for you - dude - without it. Shucks.
Second, my opinion's pretty clear. I've bucked the system here a couple times - and come out ahead on most of them :) I'm not afraid to say what I want to say. I just don't need to say clever things like "front butt rash ointment works well for strap on rash also butch" [actual "superior" Tribunal flameboard posting] to make my point clear. Capiche?
Of course, you're free to say that here too, I guess. We'd just feel sorry for your parents - knowing they'd have to feed and care for their retarded son well into his adult life.
Oh, and I'm listening to Cake's Motorcade of Generosity - I'm old enough to have had Moby's "Greatest Hits" CD back when it was called "Early Underground" in 1993. Sorry if that's not manly enough for you, but I don't choose my music based on what them thar kids on the intraweb say is cool.
Well, when your hands free up from finishing Dante's reach-around, we all look forward to your next post.
[Oh, and, if you're stuck for a witty come-back, you can tell us how we're all sucking our moderator's cock. That'd teach us a lesson! What an awesome burn it will be.]
PS - "your arrogance is just irritating" Thanks for the negative Rep hit, but tools with negative reps of their own don't GET to affect other people's rep. Funny how that works. You're welcome for your +REP though.

Just one question--if everything posted here must reflect the opinions of the mods, and there is no room for originality or something that someone might find offensive, then what is the point of even putting up the pretense of having engaged in group discussion? If I was looking for Palimax's opinion, I'd figure out where his livejournal was and read it. Not only would I get the same stuff, but I'd also know that he was feeling 'angsty', and that he was listening to Moby or some other pseudointellectual-yet-easy-enough-to-digest-that-it-won't-betray-your-relative-unintelligence crap.
Does the flameboard suck now? Indeed it does. It didn't always, though. It was hilarious at one point, and from time to time it kicks up again. But even at its worst, its far more entertaining than this lobotomized collection of non-thought.
I realize that you're trying to keep anyone from getting offended, but is that really a good thing? Especially on your "Nearly Anything Goes" board? What if I told you that I found insufferable arrogance and elitist condescension offensive? Would you run along and ban yourselves, or tell me to fuck off? And, assuming that you told me to fuck off, you'd be one step down the road to evolving (yes, evolving, contrary to what you'd like to believe) into a flameboard. Have fun grappling with that.

Dear Ron:
Did you even *read* any of the posts in this thread? Who said anything about posts having to 'agree' with the *opinions* of the mods? And there have been plenty of 'fuck the Mod/the Man's keeping me down' threads in here, btw ;). We're not afraid of diversity of opinion, or a little bare-knuckles brawling here; as has been mentioned,
the only moderation done here is for legal (RL insults/threats), or, erm, cleanliness reasons (in the case of dumping the dungdumpster thread derailments into Sandbox)...
Indeed, we've got some real doozies in here, especially if you check out some of the recent guild drama threads (not as common as they used to be, alas, but the example holds).
I realize that it might make you feel better, and enable you to support your apparent need to feel superior over there, to paint us as a bunch of effete pantywaists who can't tolerate a good mud-slinging, but it just ain't so; we just, by and large, prefer a little more substance to our poo-flinging than just pointless cursing and toilet insults...
Regards and piss off please :),

To the Homeless Pukes Soon to Invade the Tribunal,
In light of the recent posts concerning the transfer, we understand the reluctance some of you may feel at ending up over at the Tribunal. We've taken up a collection, and have come up with some funds that will allow you to transfer to the Povar server instead of the Tribunal. The money is finite, so pleas, only the most apprehensive of you should take advantage of this opportunity. Click this link (http://www.amishrakefight.org/gfy/index.shtml) to apply. The rest of you, brace yourselves. It's going to be a fun ride. ;)
Oh.. Rybit. I don't particularly care about your witless agreement, but feel free to disable my account if you feel the need. Hope you enjoy the last Monday you'll ever see on your suckass server! The good folk at the Tribunal await the "Tidal Wave" from ARo.

I believe this was posted in a snippet somewhere else but here's the full thing.
<H1>EverQuest Producer's Letter
Greetings Norrathians! First off I wanted to take some time to introduce myself as the new producer of EverQuest. EverQuest has been a large part of my life for the past three years; including the past two years as the game's Associate Producer. During my time on the EverQuest team I've come to realize one of the great things about EQ is the friendships and the community that we’ve all come to love. We all remember the first time we logged into EQ. If your experience was anything like mine, you were shocked that so many windows could fit on one screen! Thankfully, most of us found our way out of the initial shock and found folks who showed us the ins and outs of the game. Many of these in-game friendships have grown into friendships outside of Norrath and for that I thank EverQuest.
We all know that EverQuest is not just a game. The game and its community are both a large part of all our lives. Our team takes great pride in this fact, but at the same time we are humbled by the responsibilities that come along with it. As developers, our primary responsibilities are to make an entertaining game and to support the thriving EverQuest community. Only by working closely with you, can we keep EverQuest successful for years to come.
As I hope you have noticed, our team spends a great deal of time on message boards and we are constantly gathering what's important to you and bringing that information to the forefront. We continue to develop procedures that facilitate that process, but allowing our community to thrive requires an ongoing dialogue with you. For instance, class re-envisionment has been, and continues to be, a hot topic. The recent patch represents many of the initial changes we’ve made together, and we welcome your continued feedback on them. Our goal is to get these changes out as quickly as is reasonable, but to pace ourselves knowing full well that this will take many iterations and updates. This continues to be a top priority and we've already made many changes based on your feedback. Your continued feedback allows us to make EverQuest a better game.
Another hot topic in the EQ community right now is server merges. Merging servers was a tough decision, but it is necessary for the continued success of the game and these changes will make EverQuest healthier in the long run. Larger populations make it easier for players to interact, trade items, find groups, and establish guilds. As with many changes of this magnitude, there are bumps in the road along the way. To help things go a little smoother, we are planning a few changes to address some concerns that you have raised.
First, we'll be instancing the Plane of Time to alleviate the bottle neck that many of you may face as a result of higher populations.
Second, at the request of the players, we're going to combine the servers that have established a voluntary rotation system for raid targets. The Rathe and Karana will now be combined. The communities on The Rathe and Karana servers have put forth an extraordinary amount of time and energy to create their rotational systems and we want to do what we can to support these players and their chosen play style. As a result of this change, Bertoxxulous and Tholuxe Paells will be combined.
Third, we've heard your opinions on which server names should be kept after the mergers. We feel the real answer to this question is that you, the community, should decide the name for your server. Therefore, we will be adding polls to allow every player the chance to vote for the name of their particular server (including servers that have already been merged). We're working out the details of that now so stay tuned for a post shortly.
Moving forward, the EverQuest team has some ambitious plans for the next twelve months. I can't play spoiler to them all (yet), but I can say that we are extremely excited about the direction we're heading and I wanted to give you a sneak peek. As most of you already know, veteran players will be receiving bonuses this spring as a token of our appreciation for making EQ and the EQ community what it is today. This summer will bring a complete revamp of the newbie experience and will also hold some additional content for existing players that I can't wait to play. Also, be ready for art facelifts to some of our old stomping grounds this fall. I'd like to tell you about some of the other things we have planned, but you'll just have to wait and see. :)
Our team has a tremendous responsibility to be faithful stewards to Norrath and its community. EverQuest has enjoyed over six years of success and we plan on keeping it that way for at least six more. My sincerest thanks go out to all of you for allowing me to be a part of the EverQuest community.
Regards,
Craig Knapp (aka Zorillius)
Producer, EverQuest

Also.. since the reason you got booted was because you had fewer remaning players, who's name preference is going to win out? ;)

Oh, no, Rybit! Dante Moronis doesn't care about the AUP! Clearly the EZboard (*snicker*) one must be better. Obviously it is, because it's bigger.
To the non-trolling Tribunal mods/admins, I'm sure the mods/admins here will gladly help you migrate your board's content from the inferior EZboard platform to a board based on the superior vBulletin.
And, as I said before, I'm sure they'd even rename the Sandbox to Flameboard, since that's the "Flameboard" of this site. (The reason why there's only "what.. FIVE threads" (oops, I think you mean "SIX pages") 6 pages of threads there is because most of the threads there were created after the migration or were split off from existing threads after the migration. There's certainly threads lurking in the other forums that are Sandbox material, it's just not worth the time or effort to comb over 100 pages worth of threads to move them there.)

Fun game. Glad you don't index your pics buddy. Gives me a lot of ammunition. I actually copied over all the pics, just in case you lost any.
Here's the index.. (http://woofaboomus.ngender.net/pdi/) Check out his artwork too.. tried to post some, but the limits you place on the number of images per post won't allow it. I've backed it all up so the folks on the Tribunal could see it though. Hope you all like it. It's like a gallery of great art like the fine Asshat pic (supercool that), except a lot of anthropomorphic characters are having gay sex and stuff. There's even a neat one of a man having sex with a teddy bear! Sweet if you're into that I guess!
I know you'll probably just say it doesn't matter. Why should it? You posted it public. I think you fancy yourself an artist.. cool. Lets see some of the fun in your directory!
Is this you?
http://woofaboomus.ngender.net/pdi/31.jpg
I really hope so. Thanks for publically posting it. It's cute.
Ah.. found your inspiration! I'm inspired. I'll post you and your Muse's pics on Tribunal too! That way we can understand your motivation!
http://woofaboomus.ngender.net/pdi/PIC00001.JPG
Nothing wrong with an alternative lifestyle I guess. I'm sure its common knowledge, because you wouldn't make these available on the net if not. Glad to see you're proud!
Hey.. cool leather outfit too btw...

There is another that isn't worksafe.. you know.. the one where you drop your drawes? I'll post that warning when I do it at the Tribunal too. In fact, I've already done so. Have a look!
I'm glad one of your members is proud of his alternative lifestyle, and is willing to put his ass (literally) out there for all to see on his unindexed list of files! If I made a mistake in my assumption you wanted your art out there, and those fascinating pics.. I'm quite sorry! ;)

PS to those new to the show: If you're at work like me, I'd turn off signatures, avatars, and images in the NAG or Sandbox forum. You might see some things that are not work-safe. Dante is clearly very open about his sexuality, so I've decided to return to the favor by bending down a bit and offering him a happy, gay signature to satisfy his inner desires. It still has his signature flame.

I've got the worst reputation ever on your boards
Have Rybit searching through gay porn sites for his favorite couple scene, hoping I'll use the sig so he can stare at it all day
Have exposed Fil as a Fuzzy Loving, Goatfucking Pillowbiter
Have had Shamzy post the following comment to his negative rep..
Make love to me? -Shamzy
Got at LEAST three negative rep hits with comments like this from my "Application Link" to transfer to Povar. (You folks with soundcards will simply love it. The emotion conveyed there is very sincere.. from me to you.)
"You could at least have told us that link wasn't worksafe"
And had several folks, like Fil, wonder why I was SO quiet for an hour after posting. One hour. You fucking people are so obsessed with anyone who'd stand up and call you out that you're DYING for whatever I have to say next.

Reading you all try to out-nanny each other is riveting, really it is. You all kind of remind me of my 83-year-old Mom's bridge club - if they were all gay - and had no backbone - actually I think my Mom would whoop all of you together)
Commenting on the gayness of the Dante/Fildien exchange is not a condemnation of Dante, rather a broad indictment of this Stepford Wife of a board.

Rybit, you might be a tad confused. . .
This board sucks, and only the vacuum created by its suckage dispells the stench of all the dry, crusty, popcorn-fart posters on it. Dante has been being nice with you all, but I could care less.
Reading you all try to out-nanny each other is riveting, really it is. You all kind of remind me of my 83-year-old Mom's bridge club - if they were all gay - and had no backbone - actually I think my Mom would whoop all of you together)
Commenting on the gayness of the Dante/Fildien exchange is not a condemnation of Dante, rather a broad indictment of this Stepford Wife of a board.
*snicker* Dante's being "nice"? Stupid, yes. Although I doubt we'd be shocked at him begin his "worst".... we've already dealt with those kinds of folks. Funny how they're either banned or just faded away, even after a forum was created just for them.
If Dante or any of his flock from the Flameboard want to "take the gloves" off, look no further than the Sandbox. You guys can carry on there just like you do on the Flameboard.
Oh, look, another clueless sheep (http://p073.ezboard.com/fthetribunaldotorgfrm12.showMessage?topicID=2150.t opic) joins the Flameboard herd! You know, I can see how someone like Dante could confuse Filatal and Fildien (their names start with 'F', ya know.), but this one is just plain stupidity. I guess if Dante bleats it out on their board, it must be true, because Dante is the shizzle, or something... yeah...
I know it was Dante that first started the "sheep" name-calling, but after a few seconds of reading their Flameboard, it becomes quite clear who the real sheep are.

If you don't fancy oceanfront property (tsunami risk,, you know!), then I've also got some nice desert property just outside of New Orleans that I'm sure would be to your liking. If bridges are more your habitat, then you're in luck! There's a nice long bridge in the same area!

Oh hello insane Shep did you come out your cage to rattle around a bit today? I hear you gave up those accounts you ruined, well except for the one ya sold. I guess it must have chapped your ass that the orignial owner took them back eh? No more pretending to be something your not b/c you can't achieve it yourself.

Hahahah.. all you fucking punks can do is say, "We can do better". DO IT YOU GODDAMNED MORONS. I'm sick of this baby shit. I come here and create more of a stir than this board has EVER seen, and the best you can say is, "We've seen better". Uh huh. Sure.
The lame shit in your "Sandbox" is worthless, you're threads here all amount to bitching about a dead game, and I've brought a little sunshine to your lives. Admit it. The people on this cheesy board are now checking this thread HOURLY instead of weekly.
Falafel hasn't proven shit with his little google snapshot. If it was his website, he could STILL go find his asshat pic on google. Hell.. I don't even CARE or BELIEVE it's his, but guess what? He has to defend it, and he's good and pissed I pointed the finger at him because he was stupid enough to link a picture from a random board (IF that's what he did.. my guess is still that he's a Goatfucking Pillowbiter) and now most of Tribunal and ARo are at least entertained by the fact it COULD be you.
It may not be much, but honey, it's enough to make me chuckle. Then ya have poor little Rybit who's a 45 year old Anime Lover (the absolute epitome of LOSER), chasing Falafel around like a litttle toady. I've added joy to your lives, and you know it.
Hit me with Rep Points.. it means as much to me as any of you worthless fucks do.

TWANG! Hello direct Nerve Hit!
When I get a reaction like that, it's easy to assume quite a bit of what I said is true. Not very proud of the anime addiction I take it. How bout all that toon porn? Fess up junior.. ever bop the bishop to a finely drawn woman?
So we have a Furry Loving Pillowbiter who's obsessed with sleeping and asspatting me (you should see him go on my rep comments), and an impotent fat kid who thinks that Falafel is Jesus, and punches his pud to cartoon men and women. Nice bunch of administrators. Yeah.. you sure fucking "reamed my ass" Falafel. That's how you referred to it on the Trib board, along with the asspatting references.. I'd say you have a lot more to prove about your connection to that site than you think.
Isn't this fun stuff? I accept your adoration in the format of "bad rep" points. (Where's my warning for disrespecting authority too?)

Let's see you did it with Marz, then you tried to do it with Selwen, and like a chump you fell for my ploy. Did your dick throb when you thought you found something? I admit it, your ignorance is the best thing I've dealt with in months.....well since the last retard drooled all over the boards here....Shepasir.
I dunno guys at least Inks admitted his stupidity, Dante is just delusional and obsessed with the admins and mods here. I think him and Shep would make a great couple. Dante can give him a tour of his gay porn collection and Shep can follow him around sniffing his ass like he does everyone else he's enamored with. Match made in heaven.

That's what I like about this board. Go to lunch, and come back to a horde of feeble replies. You're trying to deflect me off the scent of weakness with good ol Rybit. Tanje, while a very dear friend, has NO say over what I do here. She has nothing to do with what I type or say, unlike Animaster Ryibit, and his puppeteer Falafel. How do you hide the shit on your arm Falafel? Neat trick that.. I saw you drink water once when Animastutbator was ranting. Dunno how ya do it, but hat's off!
As for me being "duped". That's funny shit. You're the dumbass that didn't even check the site you were posting it from. You can claim that bullshit all you want, but you either
A) Posted from your website, and are busted
or
B) Randomly googled a picture and ended up getting your ass handed to you for your stupidity in not looking at the OTHER things on the site.
You most certainly DID NOT set up anyone. Also.. doesn't matter. You now have a lovely image that you didn't want, and some pics of either you or some poor fella you actually DID set up to answer for. Your enemies on your own board will believe its true, and even some of your supporters will wonder if you you didn't just fuck up in a hurry to post some dumbass picture from your freaky collection.
