Razarus I think you're about as wise as my last fart. Now we've got that off our chests can we move on? Seeing as you failed to find any examples to back up your previous statements

Not anymore...at least i heard different.

Oh my dislike toward the guild "Team" became real long before I started playing the server based on the posts I read here, which is why I took much joy from trolling you ingame. :encouragement:

Did anyone notice Koriban's last word in the recall set thread AFTER the thread had been locked?


Did anyone noticed Phawks last word in the recall set thread AFTER the thread had been locked???

No Tai i have far more important things in life than picking your post apart. Infact i tend not to take you very seriously at all.
You carry on "baiting" me (as phawk explained is against the rules and not considered friendly or banter) as much as youd like there will be no bite.

Phawk you intend on sending this joker an infraction? Two baiting posts. Thread locked yet?

Double standards once again.
I rest my case.

"I think you're about as wise as my last fart" - good one tai.
At least he's likeable. Ur a socially inept idiot. Much rather he modded forums than you.

your "trolling" was not trolling...it was just abuse. Your trolling was like one of winters angry forum posts.

You were more fun when you roleplayed. Now you're ZZzzz

Example of me not morderating neutrally? Scroll through my post history, it shouldn't be that hard apparently. Otherwise your words are nothing but hot air

RE the Forsaken argument, I had the right to defend myself against bullshit and another mod closed the thread afterwards. Staff or not I won't be slandered
So its alright for us to be slandered against and not being able to fight our corner but not you... one rule for all my friend

Meh, Still think Tai's a grabby little twat, but as far as modding goes he doesn't seem to do anything the others mostly don't.

Almost all of them use mod/admin powers to get in sly digs/abuse or one sided arguments that can then not be defended. Its what mods everywhere do, not sure why people are bothering to complain. Its their forum, if you don't agree with it, don't use the forum. Clearly BH/Sam have no issue with it as they too do the same things.

There's a debate atm about people no longer using lomcn due to the way the forum is managed in regards to behaviours of mods and admins.

Which ultimately is down to the server team, you'll still have to use LOMCN for updates etc to mir chronicles, so i fail to see how this idea is taking off? [This isn't being slanderous it's a general question and me pointing out the blunt fact].

For some perhaps it's you're right, and its a genuine lock, but the majority of the time it's getting a last word in, I can picture the little giggle to themselves as they do it. Just lock a thread if its off topic or out of control.

I can imagine most of your abuse is from the people that our guild troll, after all, you don't see us getting worked up on here? It's a Mir community brother, the attitude of the player has remained the same for over 10 years. Look at tai, he uses the same mentality when arguing with forsaken members. It's a Mir forum for private servers, if I wanted to have proper discussions I would make a phone call rather than posting on a 15 year old game forum. Call it childish if you will, I'll not lose any sleep over it.

Don't take it so seriously, you've got 20 moderators to police ONE active section of a small forum. Infractions don't effect anyone, not sure why they would get "butt hurt"

In your last paragraph you've summed it up well, and as you say "that's just tai" ... Well I'm just "ilovepie:D"

Anyway enough of your Dad post, don't take it seriously, I'm sure none of us do... Well in team anyway. Not quite sure about winters and hocus...

I mean genuine abuse, not minor abuse or anything like that. You'd honestly be surprised most PM's we get. And no I don't just mean winters etc, I mean a large variety of members who think we're "taking the piss" with infractions etc. When we're upholding the rules. We don't have 20 moderators, there are 2 admins that work on this section, and 2 specific moderators from what I remember. The super moderators genuinely look over each section, validate posts, infract other sections, ban spam bots. People think we just moderate here when we don't the single forum moderators have no power in that region at all [I think! I could well be wrong here].

As for it being a dad post, it's a neutral post, surprisingly most of my posts are. This forum is mainly used for the progression of Legend Of Mir 1 & 2, and has MMO sections aswell. It's not just primarily here so people can flame and debate, surprisingly we want progress on files etc, and these files ARE important. Players don't want to have to wade through about 6 posts of guild flame or look through a thread to look for status updates etc when a server goes down just to read "servers down, ffs what's going on?!" all that sort of ****, because guess what? It's annoying to read when you're looking for ACTUAL information.

Personally as a whole I am fed up of this section, it gains more ****ing drama by the day, and it's always the same people that come back out of hiding to fuel it further. On the tai comment, the reason I said that about tai is that is his personality / who he is, it hasn't changed over the years other than he used to be a much bigger gobbier sod [Don't think he'll disagree here :P] but he IS an admin, you might just be ILovePie but you're just a member, sorry if this offends you, but you're not the one who spends hours on backend stuff, forum updates, style sheets, spambots, you just come here and post. That's it.. I have no complaints with this and I wish our members enjoy posting but if they can't find the line between having a laugh and being an arrogant sod, then good riddance.

Chronicles uses facebook to provide links to updates.

If the player base moved to another forum the server team would probably as well.

Updates etc can all be found on the Mir Chronicles website/Facebook page anyway.

Re-read my post, directed to your previous message fella.

That's fine then, some people would use facebook, others LOMCN maybe some of you. your own forum. We're not stopping you from branching out. A large majority of people stopped reading these forums DUE to the flamers, they couldn't post constructive critisism without "this is fine stfu". Really you seem to think that LOMCN is the ends all. It's not, it's just the biggest forum of mir left, you want to try to branch out, fair enough. Good luck.

Infractions mean nothing, so can only assume the special people get worked up.

No one is disputing your neutral posts, you're one of the good ones. Theres a section for Mir files, the individual sections are for the players to talk about the game. Even the hitlers of the Euro forums (Duckbill / Enembius) wern't complete asses. We have a search button to be able to look for threads, though even Chronicles rarely has new threads made anymore.

All mir players have the same level of intelligence as they used to back in the day of playing. You still have your serious people, like SirTwist for example who wants to stop poverty. I come on here for a laugh, the forum is a DULL place without some banter.

Tai being Tai, and just because he's been an ass for years, doesn't make my post any more irrelivent, only the fact that he's been the same for much longer than Chronicles has been around for? Personally, i've only been on this forum since about March this year, but from what other people say he's not exactly a liked person. Though maybe thats the reason for the nerd rage locking? :)

As for all the back end work that goes on, i've ran many forums back in the day, and by the looks of this forum, nothing happens in the background lol. The forum dies when Chronicles server goes down, it can't handle 30 people viewing it.

Theres probably a good reason other servers arent interested in joining here, and run separate forums, i'd be wondering why, and try to bring a mir community together... but what do I know, i'm just a casual player :)

And its this kind of nonchalance which is why you will never be taken seriously, and constantly just have poss deleted.

Banter : he playful and friendly exchange of teasing remarks.

What you do isn't banter. At best its flaiming/baiting/trolling. At worst its abusive and racist.

Comments like this just show how little a clue you really have then. Just because you can't see something doesn't mean its not there.

yeah, because they take one look at this section - and think **ck that.

They could have resolved this issue a long time ago by adding a lightly moderated section in Chronicles , it's all about catering to your audience and as you can see by the lack of activity on these sections recently, they've either banned or driven the majority of activity away. I suspect the majority of users on this server play to have fun, wave e-peens, flame and troll (that's how mir has always been) but the life has been slowly sucked out of us by the amount of power hungry moderators trying to justify their roles, I remember when the euro forums were just as fun to read as playing the game is, now i'm just browsing locked threads at the first sign of any life. Look at the threads in the guild section that get the most views, it's controversy that generates such interest, it's peoples jealousy and hatred of other guilds that keeps the game and forum alive for this server. I don't hate Tai, he's done a good job keeping the forum alive, who would have thought mir would be so prevalent in our lives still in 2014? I just wish himself and moderators just took a step back and relaxed sometimes. That is all.

ILovePie; please go and create your "epic banters lols forum" and have epic lols banter with yourselves until your heart's content. I wonder how long the 2-3 members outside of Team who are agreeing with you here will last on there.
