I have resigned from my position as mod/admin. Any enquiries should be directed to the other mods from now on. Cheers.

That is all.

ffs blythy, come back

Don't listen to the muppets
 
You're on probation mate...

I don't understand you, are you sure it's only yourself using your account?

I know that Sultan, and my brother has used my account, but only once

But blythy has really been a real pain in the ass

He creates a Torres thread and then says it's just a bit of fun

When others made threads like that they were infracted or banned, but it's okay since mods get preferential treatment

Maybe I'm being a little naive, but that's my view on him

And on the point of loving Macs, he acts like they're super-machines when they really are just trying to gain some action in a market that has been monopolized by Windows.

Blythy > cockstrike

Shame Blythy has resigned, not sure why I'm sure he has his reasons and fair play to the guy. Top poster, wish they was more like him.

:lol:
Blythy how could you act like that, horrible.
 
Weaste, are mods leaving their positions because they're methods of modding aren't condusive to that of the what Niall wants?

I feel as though the forum is breaking up with the dropping of 2 mods.
 
I don't have a clue what this is about, I'm as much in the dark as you lot are.

I simply didn't agree with certain things the majority wanted to do, nothing to do with Niall. It's very democratic in the mod room.
 
Lots of change round here of late.

I fear change :nervous:

I believe Blythy wants to have as little fuss made as possible. In essence I think his main reason was that a few weeks back as a mod made him remember why he left in the first place. Which is fair enough in my book.

Modding is a right pain in the arse in many ways and it does tend to take you away from posting.

You really don't know what is going on so it's probably best that you shut up.
 
I'm sure everyone would be veruy disappointed at the lack of drama in the mods forum.

Blythy: I have remembered why I didn't like modding so I'll stop.
Mods in unison: Are you sure.
Blythy: Yes. Can we keep the fuss to a minimum.
Mods in unison: Yes. If you are sure.

That is an almost complete summary of the "argument" that CS seems to be imagining.

Of course now that he has left I have started a thread taking the piss out of Macs. Which he can't see.

Exactly!

He reckoned modding just was not for him.

It's a very difficult balance being a poster and a mod.
 
Ah FFS that's the second Mod gone who was gunna initiate the United forum cull I'd been angling after :(

One of youse others has to take up the mantle, or promote someone to modship that will take the WUM / Nani number feckers out

What exactly is your point? Each time somebody mentions anything pro-mac you spout something along the lines of ''Microsoft has monopolised the market''.

''I'm terribly sorry Mr Jobs, despite our sharp increase in market share we should close down the company immediately since somebody else is already the market leader..." :rolleyes:

That's pretty much it.

Seeing as I'm in an honest mood...

I've grown very tired of this site and it's members, in a very short space of time.

Moderating is simply not for me any more. You guys are all great and do a great job, but it's just not me.

I've removed my admin privileges

...

The primary reason is that I don't 'love' this site anymore. It gets my back up, the members do my head - and while I will always come here and strive to make it what it was - being a moderator only makes it worse.

In terms of hyprcorisy, it's all over. We're giving infractions for things we're doing ourselves (abuse, Wind-ups - see my Torres thread today).

Just so it's clear, this has NOTHING to do with any rival sites, I'm not registered over there any more.
 
Sorry to see you go Blythy, you've always been a valuable member of this site so hopefully you'll stick around and keep posting. Thanks for your great modship service!

As the other mods have stated, there's no infighting going on among us, the place isn't falling apart at the seams etc etc :rolleyes:

Every mod does this on a voluntary basis and I respect their decisions to quit, whatever the reason.

PS - Macs rock the casbah! :D
 
We need to find a new replacement now after Blythy resignation, I would like to take this opportunity to nominate myself as the new candidate for the Mod/Admin position.
