this really is more of a principle thing 00 today is one of the rare times ive seen him act retarded, recently 00 but yeah 00 i mean 00 i agree with you a lot 00 but you cant change anything until you convince those two 00 and sometimes its impossible. that's actually the only reason I DO want to be an admin so I'll have more of a voice 00 Soap is the only reason you aren't an admin. 00 keep your mouth shut about this but lol what 00 seeing as how Rick and Soap call all the shots 00 this is what rick has told me 00 i dunno about that saber guy, seems cool but i dont know him well 00 he can be rly crazy i dont know 00 up 2 u, w/e haha well see 00 yoshi and I have your backs 100% hm has he seen me wrangling nate I dunno I have two backs that is why you need two people 00 l0l 00 but until we change soaps opinion, jackshit is going to happen eh I can be over the top 00 and today i realized why soap thinks that, you cant just blow up at people in IRC but when I say that I wouldn't do anything as an admin I really, really mean it 00 i think you can be level headed in private but in public you sort of go nuts I earn my keep on sites by being useful as a member of the council 00 thats really why i talked to rick about it 00 i wanted you to be part of the group like I'd update and do work like that 00 but then i realized that POS does not work that way 00 POS works like 'Soap and Rick half-heartedly agree on something, its gets done' but I wouldn't actually exercise my authority over people that's not my style 00 right, thats how i work 00 i dont use my authority because i dont trust my opinion 00 i feel like i would be seen as harsh and unreasonable so i just speak to the others I trust my opinion but I know that my ideas about what action to take are too unilateral and drastic and no one else of equal rank to me would support them 00 look 00 i'll talk it over with rick and soapy 00 (that was a typo lol) I'm not trying to sell myself or anything lol this is just a conversation 00 no no, i want you to be a mod 00 i think you have a good opinion of what pos needs 00 but you gotta keep your cool in public 00 if you think something needs to be done, then talk to other admins 00 if a few of us agree then we can act and see how the others think I think the fact that I know that pos is a completely nebulous entity is proof enough that I know what pos needs well see is there a staff channel because that would be where I would blow up about stuff the public is NOT the best place to do that 00 i think there should be 00 i really do 00 if i push the issue about you becoming mod then i'll throw the idea for a staff channel down well what good would mod be I don't go on the forum and I don't intend to really admin would mean I'd work on the actual site 00 the difference between mod and admin is nil mods can update? 00 i mean, yoshi is a mod, and I was a mod for a while 00 people with FTP access are just the dependable ones 00 and the site is entirely inside the forum so yeah 00 yknow front page posts and imagefest posts are just subforums and whatnot see I'm a big hothead but that's WHY I'm useful 00 lol not to DO things, just to get ANGRY about things also you'll notice that I wasn't bitching at yaj just now 00 point out the issues I waited until he left 00 right that was deliberate 00 but when you speak to the entire channel 00 its a bit different there really should be a staff channel 00 for one thing you get swamped by david and antis "FREEDOOOOOM" faggotry 00 and a ranting mod is also kinda 'bad publicity' to put it really stupidly well, I mean I agree with that in theory 00 the problem with pos staff is that staffers dont really have a voice right now, its mainly soap and rick but what publicity does pos actually have 00 well like i said, pos wants to make it big lol no it doesn't who told you that they were lying 00 POSers told me that 00 rick and soap told me that in what context could they possibly be speaking 00 they want to be a site with people, and viewers to our content pos as a big website wouldn't be pos 00 we want more people to see the shit we write 00 no it wouldnt, but thats what they want I agree that would be cool but I mean 00 and if you want POS to stay together, you have to act cool and let them feel like we're trying our best well for one thing pos isn't organized enough we don't advertise 00 we've tried we don't regularly update, we don't have any real degree of consistency pos won't attract people as a quirky little tight-knit operation 00 well we're 'trying to be less tight-knit' 00 thats why these changes are made 00 thats why bans are less common 00 it wont work, yeah 00 but they want to try it. the vast majority of people will look at the forums and see people that are already so mired in their own injokes that it wouldn't be worth the time to try and catch up 95% of posts aren't even serious 00 thats why soap wants us to use less injokes. when has he said that 00 staff board oh that's the place to get that shit out all right tell the staff in the staff board see this is why pos needs me I'm direct I know my internets I AM NOT AFRAID :OOOOO 00 lol 00 just know this 00 you can have a voice 00 but it doesnt mean it will get you anywhere. I'm used to uphill slopes 00 i know from experience. nate. 00 i havent had a 'good idea' in years. that means less to you than it would to soap when soap gets on I'ma give him a piece of my mind 00 i just make the pretty imagefests so that rick can barely acknowledge that i still exist. 00 you dont help POS to help rick and soap make their dream site 00 you help pos by making fun things to entertain the people who actually pay attention no I believe I DO help pos by helping soap and rick make their dream site the fact that I didn't even KNOW of these ambitions is proof that they'll never fucking DO it unless they get with it 00 alright 00 we can talk to them about what we think can be done 00 but just know this 00 you and I are assholes to each other because thats how we roll me making videos with you is just because I like doing that it's not for pos 00 if you dont talk to soap and rick in a specific way, they'll think you're being a prick. rick yeah but soap knows me he's known me for longer and on a site where I was much more of an entity 00 he knows you enough to keep you away from pos mod-ship. 00 in getting power at POS soap is your enemy 00 he put cfod over you. well if I can determine that he understands my methods accurately and he doesn't want me I won't push the issue 00 alright. though I will constantly beg for admins but just because that's a funny joke 00 this was a conversation that went places it was
