Urza, Mthrnite and Gaisuto were my 3 favorite mods.
Urza was always mean, but in a refreshingly honest "I'm an adult and you are just a cocky little brat" sort of way that I loved.
Gai was just awesome.
Mthr was too, wtf happened to him? Maybe its just my recent inactivity.

In all honesty, the reason I have been coming less is the noobiness, I was about the most detrimental thing to the forum back when I joined, and even then I was just poking fun at the typical teenage obsession with sex, adding a japanese cartoon twist, which I believe was for a while at least, slightly amusing.
Then the idiots and ungratefuls came, and it all went to hell.
EVERYONE in the mod team is amazing, you noobs have no idea how much better our mods are than the ones on any other forum I've seen.
Seriously, BIG thanks to all the past and present mods.
And I want to mirror Gaisuto's sentiments: the forum is getting worse, we can't get enough mods to keep it clean, and thanks to piracy being more and more mainstream the degredation will continue till this site we know and love is just a trash hole.
This is why I've always supported a private board for intelligent discussion that would be users with 1000 posts only. And its existence wouldn't be public knowledge, so newbs wouldn't want to spam to get in...

Bah, I hope ninty really cracks down on piracy so all the can't pirate any more, and thus have no reason to come to our precious forum.

1. Urza isn't/never was a mod
2. Mthr is MIA cause of some stuff IRL.

To the Staff:


Flaming.


Please don't feed the trolls, and stop flaming or get better at it.


I know there has been allot of Flaming/Trolling going around lately, but you guys shouldn't be involved.


Just close the topic. You have closed topics like this before, and you will in the future. stop all this fighting, let the guy reopen his blog with a more appropriate title, and suspend anyone that asks for pics or says they want to bone his sister.

I personally would like to thank you, elenar, for angering Gaisuto enough that he resigns.
Thanks for pushing him over the limit.

You're a fantastic member of the community. Thank you!

Scuber: Yes he was. I remember him posting new powder DS releases before the User submitted news was up. Or he was a "technician" or some other random rank at least.

Juggz: Doin' fine, just busy.
How've you been?

EDIT: LULZ!
Out of 15 votes, 9 of us did "null" votes.

Also, to everyone in the thread complaining about me being a bad moderator, etc. (everyone being DrKupo) - a big fat FUCK YOU to ya. I put a lot of effort into bettering the site, and this is what I get? Disrespect and flames? Gee, thanks.

I hate people who just come on the board to stir things up and piss people off?
What good does it do? Why do it on a board that hasn't been completely ruined by meme spouting, flaming kids? Go to 4Chan - just leave.

I personally don't want to see Gaisuto go - there's still some hope left for the forums, I think.
Maybe we should cut the warning system in half and be more strict on posts.
Maybe that'd be a good solution.

at the end of the day the members get nominated for good reason, if they don't do their job it's never up to people like you to start crap like this to get rid of them
