idk if i'll use this "blogs"...gratz for the update anyways

DustyPorViva 07-21-2008 08:27 PM

Darlene has surprised me many times in supporting a topic I thought would quickly be deleted. I don't know if she lets them stay just to try to prove us wrong, or because she is sincere in her cause... but they stay.

On the other hand, seeing many of my posts disappear when I thought they were perfectly fine pisses me off :/

I have never done that. If I defend someone, it is because I agree with them

The only reason she doesn't lock this is because it would make us right. You know as well as any of us if we didn't mention her specifically, she would've locked it.

You should be so happy, in The Other Internet Forum posts are rarely at all deleted or even edited, except to append a cute little "user was banned for this post" notice, and then you get to buy another account.

They talk over ICQ and such, as far as I am informed.

I would be honestly surprised if we weren't allowed to discuss this.
We honestly should not, because this is very offtopic already. Moon Goddess should probably just delete all thread branches about this.

When did you start posting here?

DustyPorViva 07-21-2008 08:30 PM

What Other Internet Forums? I'm having a hard time following your post.

kia345 07-21-2008 08:30 PM

Can I be like Darlene and twist was is and isn't off topic? This is all on topic, it regards the blogs and the posting of them

Dude, you are doing the replying-to-the-thread thing again.

I think I am not allowed to advertise them or anything, I was just giving an example of a forum with much less scrupulous moderation.

I don't think so, the 'projects' require organization, the blog is simplier and also connected to the user profile.

No, it is not, it quickly went into ranting and raving about the moderation in general.

Of all the forum posts I've ever made, I would say 88 percent were on these forums, 3 percent on the Valikorlian forums, 3 percent on the Elder Scrolls forums, and the last 6 percent on 20 other different places.

I don't get around the forum scene too much obviously.

I highly doubt Darlene forwards complaints about Darlene to Unixmad.

I do it a lot. You pointing it out isn't going to encourage me to do it any less :P

I have browsed a lot of forums over my internet life and the moderation on these are by far the most strict and annoying.

Darlene159 07-21-2008 08:35 PM

Alright, this thread is not about me, and my moderation. I have already stated that the blogs will be moderated like the forums, unless unixmad states otherwise. I'm not going to argue the rules further.

I hope that some people can get some use from the blogs, be it for playerworld news, or whatever.
