As a poster you also have a responsibility.
Can I see those posts were Boyk so called abused you? I haven't seen any flame wars started by Boyk at all so?

He attacked me completely unprovoked... the whole thing suddenly grew, then fizzled out and I had no problem with him after that. After I responded harshly he got scared and backed down. It was nothing really, but it was example number 1.
There was a second time, I'll be fucked if I'm going through all 32 pages of his posts to find it.
The third time was the "last straw" so to speak. I don't view him as a positive contributer to the forums, and there's only so many times I'll "back down" and just let him get away with it. Lets face it, if I had responded and a flame war started you'd still be making this thread. If I had left it and not said anything, I'd feel like a door-mat.
banning was probably a little harsh
As far as you're concerned Filip, I think this is quite possibly the most unnecessary, detrimental thread I have seen in a long while. You're not even remotely interested in discussing the job the mods are doing, or offering any solutions to it.
Your sole purpose is to basically sling insults or try to make us look "bad".
by bringing forth examples that aren't even really relevant since most of Jackal's were before he was a mod
You're not helping, if you can't see that it's not my problem.
I will continue to be a moderator here, I will not suppress my personality to suit your feelings
you and Sit are friends of Boyk so of course you jump on my back and get all high and mighty over that.
Dweaver is banned, so he emails you lot and once again you're on here crusading about things.
You provoke your reactions Filip, did you honestly think any of us were going to read a thread titled "Yeah, great mods we're having here" and respond in a positive manner to you?
You really need to step back and have a look at your own actions, because honestly, if anyone's being detrimental to the community it's you

Andrew said himself that he didn't agree with the banning + even you said it yourself:
All I suggest is that you 3 either calm down and give an extra thought or two before telling people to fuck off and calling them assholes etc. Is that really too much to ask for? All the other previous mods managed to do this, why can't you? Well if you can't, you really shouldn't be a moderator.
I think you all done that pretty good yourself. Like I already, the threads that I bringed up speaks for themself.
You know well that jackal has been a mod for a couple months, it's just that it recently got officialy. Also, there is only one thread I posted where he is not officialy a mod (which dosen't have any significance anyway).
I see it more as Andrew's problem, but he seems to be cool with it
Dosen't have anything to do with my feelings. As I already said:
Just calm down and give an extra thought or two before telling people to fuck off and calling them assholes etc. That's all!
I've had not contact with Boyk what so ever before the banning.
It doesn't mather wether if it's someone I know or not, the banning was just plain wrong, that's why I reacted.
Dweaver hasen't mailed me, so I don't know where you get that from.
I don't think it has any significance what the title of the thread was.
How am I detrimental to this community? Please tell me

You mean like EGarrett did? Yeah that experiment went well didn't it. The other mods weren't angels themselves. Go have a look over some of the earlier threads.

The threads I brought up completely destroyed your credibility. I don't think you've made me look bad at all. The insults I've made that you posted are nothing, throwaway comments that a 5 year old wouldn't get offended at. Just to make myself look even worse, here are some more threads...

Because apart from a very very small minority, people seem to be happy with how things are at the moment.

Where am I telling people to fuck off? Apart from you and Sit in that one post. You really don't get it, all I've done since becoming a mod is to "calm down and give an extra thought or two"... you saw my posts before I became a mod, if you can't see that I've calmed down alot you're blind.
I've had not contact with Boyk what so ever before the banning.
Key word: before.
It doesn't mather wether if it's someone I know or not, the banning was just plain wrong, that's why I reacted.
What gives you the right to react? It's upto Boyk to appeal the ban, it's not up to you to start problems.
I don't think it has any significance what the title of the thread was.
Yes it does. It's disrespectful and demeaning.
How am I detrimental to this community? Please tell me
Come on, I mean you weren't nicknamed "Spam Harder" for nothing.
Why are you starting problems with the three of us when it's completely unnecessary? You do realise that all of this would've blown over in a few days time, making this thread proves absolutely nothing. You found 6 or 7 instances where the mods have acted inappropriately, WOW! People will definitely want us gone for that.
I have over 6,000 posts, 3 examples of me insulting people aren't going to start riots.
It's been said so many times, but if you don't like the way things are here, then leave. No one's forcing you to stay here and put up with us
You're not getting that, apart from whoever you can get to back you up on MSN or whatever people aren't saying anything.
.By the way... Jackal, Matthew and I are separate entities. Stop grouping us together like we're the 1 person. We all have different personalities, we all do different things here. I don't appreciate it if you insinuate that I flame everybody just because Jackal gets himself into a few flame wars

Filip says:
I did?
§agar says:
Ofcourse you did. You know he'll feel bad after whatever it is you posted. You make him look like a moron for choosing us as moderators. Indirectly that is what you are saying. Oh, your choices as mods suck.
Filip says:
Well yeah,

What goes around comes around

What does that saying have to do in this context? What did Andrew do to deserve flak like that?
Filip says:
He chosed crappy mods, his own stupid fault.

So we are crappy mods after all & he is a moron for choosing us, again tell me why you stick around if all three of his mods are morons & he himself is a moron?

Fri Jul 29, 2005 6:41 am
WTF, you posted those links to show how looooooooved you are in the community?
What, that he was a mod before it got officialy? Pleeease!
Is that why you have to stay hidden so you don't receive all those hate PM's?
Also, your moderator spot has been questioned by several members, several times. It even got to the point that you created a thread regarding this.
but you're still far from behaving correctly as a poster, and the distance from behaving correct as a moderator, shit, I don't even wanna go there
Cause I'm a user of the forum, I have the right to complain when I find something wrong. Unless NLSC recently turned into some NAZI place where you get banned for voicing your opinion when you feel something has been done wrong. (maybe thats's also an idea to add for your perfect forum)
I PM:ed Andrew regarding the banning, then he boyk contacted me.
Please don't talk about respect and demeaning to me. You wouldn't know anything about it.
No, it was a joke from Stevan when I posted something like "I hope this isn't regarded as spam Laughing ". No offending from Stevan's side, none offense took from mine.
It's way to common these days that the moderator is the cause behind a flamewar.
You forgott atleat one zero after the three.
I won't go away that easily. I still enjoy the forum though some of the moderators are pricks.
I haven't tried to get any feedback from anyone, so piss of with that theory.
You're all 3 part of the same problem. That's why I mention you together.
You all 3 very inappropriate of being moderators since you all refuse to follow the basic rules of posting.
Andrew couldn't have chosed any less inappropriate moderators.

Now that I know the BoyK and Dweaver-story I understand the reason for the threads and think that the punishments were fair in BoyK's case and that Dweaver needs a enema to get all the shit out of his system.
Make the seperation of the poster and the mod, since they fulfill diffrent functions. Jackal/Jae/matthew/whoever has a responsibility as a mod to make the forum work without too much hindrance, but the poster Jae/Jackal/matthew should abide by the same rules as the rest of us.
And if these three should suffer penalties for flaming, then a fair share of the regular posters should aswell; me included.

Jackal wrote:You look back to my first 10 posts & look at my last ten posts. They've been filled with insults but never has it strayed from the truth. Never.
I am very, very grateful to Stevesanity & Fender for trying to look passed the moderator thing & realise that we're human
alright, I'm an asshole of a human being, but don't act as if it's a surprise to you folks. You guys knew this way before.
Filip, the recent times we've spoken on MSN, have I been remotely uncivil? Even remotely?
The times I am an asshole is when I'm being totally honest and saying what is on my mind. If that also is a problem, I don't know what else to do.
You folks tell me what you want me to do & I'll do it. I know I'm sort of ditching Jae, Matthew & even Andrew in this whole situation, but if you forum posters want to say alright, Jackal gone will make this place better = alrighty with me. As I said, I've moved on from the point where the NLSC has become a need to post every day to a thing I like to do. If you folks feel my presence makes it too unpleasent for the rest, I'll be more than glad to fuck off & you can sort out your own shit.
One last thing I'd like to say is to be aware of the situation from here on out. Filip is crying foul about the moderators treating people like shit, have you seen the quote in his signature? He's basically supporting Indy in making fun of Wisdom. No, when Filip dislikes a person it's alright to make fun of them, but we as mods must be Ernest & just have no opinion & be all robot like. Awesome.
Basically Filip isn't fighting for anything except for the sake of mentioning the fact that we treat the people we dislike like shit. He does the same thing. Ofcourse he's always the victim & we're always the bad guy.
Finally: I suggest you make a thread, put in a poll, make tons of people vote, rig it if you wish & let the people have their way. Jackal will leave if that is what you all want. That. Simple.
Oh and Filip, why don't you just use the lingo you used with me on MSN regarding Andrew? In fact, I'll post it.Filip says:

Why don't you post how you are on MSN? Are you afraid people will dislike you for being what you are? A disrespectful asshole?

It's only your opinion of the truth. Also, I reject the idea of moderators and posters writting whatever is on their mind if it's offensive.
For example: In real life you don't scream out to a person "OMFG you're ugly" even if that is what you're thinking.
Just because you're human dosen't give you the right to flame people , you still have some manners don't you? Oh no wait, that's the whole problem with you.
I agree, that's why I'm questioning Andrew's judgement.
No you haven't, I don't see why you can act this way in the forum?
Yes that's a problem since all you're thinking is "Fuck that mofo" etc.
You have already said this like 10 times.
You're calling the other moderators robots? There is a between:
There isn't just Robot and "Fuck you idiot" attitude moderators.
I can't recall when I have treating anyone as shit. The thing is though, you take it to another level and you do it all the time.
I'm not here to trying to change things. I'm saying my opinon.
You did the same for a year ago (that time it was the other way around though)

Actually no, I was showing all of the "you're a great moderator" thread. Because obviously so many people agree with you.
What, that he was a mod before it got officialy? Pleeease!
Don't be a tool, you're speculating. Plus you're very wrong.
Also, your moderator spot has been questioned by several members, several times. It even got to the point that you created a thread regarding this.
No it didn't "get to the point", I felt it was necessary to explain the situation to aid other people in understanding things better. Apart from all of that, I made that thread months and months ago. Try and stay recent, you've got nothing.
However in the thread you wrote:I've noticed over the last two weeks or so I've been getting this "how did you become a mod?" "that's not how a mod should act" etc rubbish. I'd like to address it purely because I'm sick of it
but you're still far from behaving correctly as a poster, and the distance from behaving correct as a moderator, shit, I don't even wanna go there
That's in your opinion, read the shoutout threads genius you're fighting a losing battle. Actually, that's not even your opinion because your comments were quite complimentary in my 6,000 thread. Bit of backtracking never hurt anyone huh
Cause I'm a user of the forum, I have the right to complain when I find something wrong. Unless NLSC recently turned into some NAZI place where you get banned for voicing your opinion when you feel something has been done wrong. (maybe thats's also an idea to add for your perfect forum)
You don't have the right to provoke more problems on this forum when it's absolutely none of your business. It's upto Boyk to appeal once again.. if he wanted to appeal through you, fine, but from your posts it was just you grandstanding your oh so valued opinion again.
No, it was a joke from Stevan when I posted something like "I hope this isn't regarded as spam Laughing ". No offending from Stevan's side, none offense took from mine.
Oh please, other people used it to insult you. I know Stevan, I've been friends with Stevan for years and we've talked about these things. Believe me, certain things aren't just "jokes".
It's way to common these days that the moderator is the cause behind a flamewar.
Does that make you immune to punishment for causing problems like this? You're the only one who's making this gigantic issue Filip, it's only you.
You forgott atleat one zero after the three.
Are you thick? You put 3 examples, you didn't put 30At least read what I post properly.
I won't go away that easily. I still enjoy the forum though some of the moderators are pricks.
Why are you allowed to call us pricks?
I haven't tried to get any feedback from anyone, so piss of with that theory.
And there you go again. You're such an immature little boy, for someone your age you really should grow up. Alot.
You're all 3 part of the same problem. That's why I mention you together.
You all 3 very inappropriate of being moderators since you all refuse to follow the basic rules of posting.
You don't seem to realise that you're breaking the exact same rules, and probably to a larger extent. Do you see any of us starting threads calling out certain members to tell them what we dislike about them? You're skating on thin ice and you don't even realise it.
Andrew couldn't have chosed any less inappropriate moderators.
LOL! You just complimented us. Thank you Filip, that's very kind of you to say.
You're just so blatantly unaware of what's going on around you. Open your eyes Filip, who else is here supporting you? You do realise that 1 person isn't going to change anything, especially you. You're under the illusion that you hold enough clout here to be listened to and have your thoughts taken on board. You're entitled to your opinion, but I think in future you might try and actually pick some people that you can actually win against. You're getting verbally raped from all directions, excuse the bad language

Anyways, I won't go around recruiting people to post "Supports Jackal" because that's just not what this is all about. At the end of the day the whole thing is still very simple. He threatend me not once but twice when I have never made any personal threats to him. I am one who can handle himself but I refuse to let it slide twice. Once I let it slide and after the banning (due to constant provocation) I still extended my hand to say you know what, it's happened so it's happened fuck it. But Dweaver chose to not accept that hand & refused it by making another threat. I can't imagine people are willing to support him even after this. It's quite a shame to be brutally honest.
Filip is a .... for sure, this is a guy that knew both sides of the story yet chose to point out that I 'abuse' my power. I'm positive he wouldn't have accepted two threats even after extending a hand of peace. Whatever man, if folks feel that what Dweaver wasn't all that bad, so be it.
I'm going to discuss a lengthier, perhaps permanant ban of Dweaver after the second threat via E-Mail & after the fact I suggested working things out.
