The Swift Sword

i feel like this might get glossed over if it don't quote it. this is the best post i've seen on the boards since we had this whole admin switch fiasco. posters like this make the board awesome. we need more posters like this. this is the kind of poster i want to be, is the the kind you want to be?

let's lay off all the negativity, shall we?

Thank you for so eloquently conceeding the point.

Awwww, but the negativity is just so much FUN!!!!

I'll be the first to agree I can be negative at times, and should probably try to be a bit less. My reaction to Domotai being nominated is a reflection of this. Probably NOBODY on EITHEr set of boards have had as heated discussions as Dom's and I in the past, and yet I wholeheartedly have supported him in this. Why? Because he IS a good guy. His insights, while I may not always agree with them, are well thought out, and he stands up for them. Strong leadership is good. His accident with the AEG boards is way over blown, he didn't REALLY leak a card, and the fact that he did accidently leak a small description of an unreleased card does not make him a bad player, or a whiny extremist out to steal and reveal all othe previews.

Im quoting this, but its in response to a few posts along these lines: No, I couldnt have spoken up. No, I couldnt have volunteered. These boards hadnt allowed new people to register to speak up on them for quite some time.

Umm, just because you argue with the guy and now are backing him does not make him a good choice, Hell I would go as far as saying anyone you backed would be a terrible choice. The facts are he spoiled information and he whines all the time that makes him a whiny extremist and someone who isn't smart enough to follow company policy.

The primary point of negativity that needs to be addressed on the board are personal attacks. Having a negative opinion of products, stories, and systems (negativity) is an entirely different kettle of fish than spending one's time crapping on those you disagree with (ad hominem attacks).

Yes, in some places the former is condemned and the latter is condoned as long as it supports curbing the former.

This should not be one of those places.

I disagree

I believe there were post count resets last year and a board reset in 2008. I think. I cant remember for certain.

I'm not the board's technician bully, but, I've seen many posts quoting a problem on registration lately. That's a strange and unfortunate fate.

But I would ask why you waited 'tin now and the admin change to register? Strange and unfortunate timing don't you think?

So now and then I'm not here for a debate, and I am not an investor on US Lion boards, so I just come to see topic talking about games, fun and people who don't care about board's politics.
As long as the admin team make the jobs, I've nothing to complain about. Nor should anyone.

Just as an update to this topic, I've adjusted the registration process. I cleared the queue, as well. If you know someone who previously had problems registering, go ahead and nudge them towards trying again. I'll do what I can to keep up with the requests.


Notice how the registration was fixed on the 30th?

It's obvious to me that you are very concerned about the direction of the community, and in particular, this board. You made those concerns clear before Jed made a decision on the new admin, even going so far as to suggest that this is something you would quit the board over. However, "the facts" you've presented do not tell the whole truth. Domotai is plainly more than someone who "spoiled information" and "whines all the time". To tell only one side of the truth and call that the whole is to speak falsely. Are you really so distressed by this that your concerns have now become the whole of your outlook? What kind of content do you want to see here that isn't whining?

I am glad that you haven't quit. Please do consider working to make the board a good place for other users while you're here.

I 'waited until now' because I couldnt even post on the board until yesterday. I didnt have an account, because I couldnt REGISTER for this site until yesterday.

it's ironic that domotai is the one that fixed it, allowing you to complain about him being the new admin

on a more serious note, i know domotai thinks it's fair that complains about him being the new admin are allowed to be voiced. however, let's keep this thread to supporting or opposing him being the admin, and leave out the personal attacks.

stuff like this really isn't helpful:


i'm not gonna give out any warnings/bans whatever because our new forum rules haven't been fleshed out yet, but i want to politely ask that people address concerns about domotai not other posters on this board. if you have a problem with another poster please take it to PM.

(DON'T MAKE ME USE THE GREEN TEXT. I'LL DO IT! )
