Oh really... God you make me laugh!
: I was irritated by most (Beuc, Simonk and others) but was astounded that the staff could resort to such disgraceful things.
I point out when both you and DethLord go and suddenly revise (lower) your previous reviews of my stuff straight after I review something you've done and this irriatates you?
And then you call me a wuss? Oh my goodness that stings... Oh, I'm mortally wounded, SabreTrout is name calling... oh, oh, oh...
This is just plain silly.
I said it last time you had a go at me on this board and I'll say it again. Put up or shut up.

I think you will find that is NOT the reason. The creeping sands is not a god d-mod in my opinion, and I decided to give it another chance and play it again. This reinforced what I thought about the d-mod. Upon playing v0.5, I again changed my review, as one of the things i found very bad has been made better. s I said, not everything revolves around you Simon, so stop thinking that everything we do is because of what you did. I have given all your other files GOOD reviews, but I have not gone and changed them have I?

I called you a wuss? I don't remember (though I may have) but this is no more silly then telling me to "put up or shut up". Oh, and sarcasm is the lowest form of humour :o

In short, I was NOT having a go at anyone here (though on hindsight it does seem so), but I always thought that the Staff were peacemakers in these feuds, at least Redink is. As I said, I have only heard one side of the story, so my comment should be taken with a pinch of salt. Stop being so...so...I can't think of the words to desribe how i feel! :)
Good-bye the prozac is all gone!
: I have been under the impression that some people on this network are arrogant idiots (occasionally me, i admit :) ) The main case I see this on is the case of Dethlord.
: A whole bunch of people have been very rude and out of order to him, despite his amazing service to the community.
: I was irritated by most (Beuc, Simonk and others) but was astounded that the staff could resort to such disgraceful things.
: Tal and WC are the culprits, with WC calling Dethlord a weak loser!!
: Who do you people think you are?? You are the staff, and should behave a peace-makers, not calling one of the best dinkers around a loser!!
: I'm going to admit I have had my share of pretty petty fights (imacrazyguy, simonk) but nothing that compares to this.
: Some of you make me sick >)
Show me... in which posts on this board or in the comments section have I insulted DethLord?
If you didn't find any, it's for good reason. That was a private manner! I wanted it to be kept confidential with my good friends! What gives you the right to plaster it all over the board?
"Hey, I just heard that so-and-so thinks so-and-so-else is a dumb wench! Let me tell everyone!" - No. That's not how it works, incompetent fish.

WHAT?!?! It does not matter if it private, it is still insulting, which is not called for. And what gives me the right to plaster it all over the board? The right is mine to do as I wish, I was just wondering what staff policy was on these matters. I did not expect any of the staff to be insulting in any shape or form, private or not.

In what way am I incompetent then Tal? You tell me! It's not to do with telling everyone, but I just wanted to know the reasons. But obviously you and simon just won't see what I'm trying to say :(

Just because I am staff doesn't mean I have to go by the rules of the Dink Network (being civil) whereever I may be; I'm only required to go by the DN rules on the DN. Chatting over MSN or ICQ is a completely different matter which has little or nothing to do with the DN.

You never told us you wanted reasons, you only told us how to behave. And I'll behave how I want, mind you.

I suppose that is fair enough, but I'm still not sure..

Telling you how to behave? I don't think so! Requesting a bit more civil treatment was all I asked, nomatter how you twist my words, as you seem intent on doing!:p

I'm a staff member too, but I don't think that it makes you change your behavior towards others on a board, you should be yourself.
everybody is a weak pathetic ignorant loser. thats just how it is. you gotta drink some root beer and you will feel better.
First of all, I don't belive Tal did anything, but I will let him speak his own peace. Next thing, I saw Dethlord was kinda ticked at the community on MSN (his name said something to the effetc Dink has gone downhill), so I aksed him about it. He started complianing about how people were trying to oppress him and that he is just going to leave. I told him that if he gives into critismn then he is weak, and he should make the ciritsmn make him stronger and such. He then started going on (like he always does) about how marrowind is better and dink sucks and all, and I asked him if he wanted to know why people get p**sed off at him. I told him and he says, "alright then if you want me to leave dink then I'll leave". I replyed with "I never said that" (or something to that effect, I don't have a exact quote) and he signed off (assuming he blocked me).
I would also like to point out just because i'm a member of the Dink Network doesn't mean I have to be kind to everyone everytime. Yes, I am kinda to everyone (except for the people who really prove they don't deserve it), but, what I do on my own personal time, shouldn't be held against me as a staff member of the Dink Network. There is a diffrence between WC - Staff Memeber, and WC - Community member. There is a diffrence between the way I act on this message board, and when I post news compared to when me, Tal, and RedInk (not to mention other members of the community) talk. Judge me if you wish, but don't try attacking my character saying that I should be perfect becuase I'm staff, no one is perfect, yes, I do have to control myself as a staff member and withhold personal feelings and judgement sometimes, but not on my personal time.
--WC
I didn't say you had to be perfect, but as a staff member, even in your private time, unless someone is being completely unreasonable, you should be as civil as you can.
I agree with Dethlord in one major respect, that he HAS been victimised by certain members of the network, and has not been given a fair oppurtunity to explain himself. Dethlord has told me what he believes about Tal, and it is his opinion so it is perfectly valid. If anyone is ever obnoxious or rude to me, I'm not best pleased either.
But I'm not blaming you WC, as I only know 1 side of the story, but I am slightly concerned with the treatment of a friend.
Understandable. I will admit I was alittle short with him only because he was dissing on Dink, not fighting, but rather crying over it, and complaining about something he can't control, but can fight. Him leaving is not pleasing to the hear, I rather him stay and fight, but it's his choice. If you think I haven't been told off by anyone, you are truely mistaken. Heck imcrazyguy just told me how much he doesn't like me this morning. I guess the lesson here is not to let anyone get to you.

Very true. Lucklily he is not leaving forever though! :)
I would also like to ask people to take all my seemingly inflammatory comments with a pinch of salt. I don't mean to offend, but I type in a rush and don't think about it, though it does not help when people start flaming me about it.:(
But never mind, I'm willing to let bygones be bygones, if only others would.
But I do think that you would prefer he stay and fight a bit disturbing. But on second thoughts, at least he would still be here...:p

Why are you dragging up something that happened days ago? You made your point pretty clear then, why start it all over again? Nothing to do today?
