The Dink Network

So, even though Christiaan said I shouldn't do this anymore, I figured it was time to get this site's stuff back on track (seeing as he also said that he would take care of this RRR thing). I'm kind of doing this in a hurry and as I go, so there won't be any fancy stuff such as how much the D-Mods scored and the percent and all that stuff. I just thought this site deserved the results finally.

This time, we had a triple tie in the non-D-Mod files! I mean... just... holy crap!

Non-D-Mod files:

2nd place:
You Can't Leave
Midi Demonstration
The Ocean
MsDinks Graphic Pak2

1st place:
I Will Survive This Carnage
MsDinks Graphics Pak3 (Fatties and Bar Pak)
Alex (New Character)

D-Mods:

4th place:
Enter the Dead Dragon Carcass
Knight Soup

3rd place:
The End of Snoresville

2nd place:
The Blacksmith's Trail

1st place:
Power Of Blood

Again, sorry for it being so short and simple, but I really couldn't do more, especially since I thought I wouldn't do it at all at first. I might add the percent and the scores tomorrow, who knows.

Anyway, congratulations to the winners!

Sorry, but this is Christiaan's job. Notice how he posted the contest info in July. Just because someone isn't around doesn't mean you can randomly decide that you're in charge.

Sorry, but stop this childish "skull told me to mature up in the past, so now just because skull did it it's all the seven sins combined". I was completely capable of doing it in the past. I am completely capable of doing it now, unlike Christiaan apparently, who again took off. It's more reliable to have someone actually around here to do this. People thought I did a good enough job in the past, I did it exactly the similar way right now, so I'd say it's good enough. I really despise how you dare to say those things after I provide you with something you have been anticipating for an entire month. It doesn't feel very nice to me, you should thank me instead. If you hate me so much, then just ignore me. But I won't stop doing good for this community, then take crap for doing so, just cause you hate me.

Dude, if the staff who runs the RRR tells you not to steal his job, you should really listen. Don't pretty up your misdeeds, because it won't work.

So you would rather not have this at all than have me do this? I bet you would have been all fine with it if someone else did this? You are really showing some anger towards me now. I just don't get why keep this stupid thing going. It's been two years since I told you to stop using double accounts, and you're still pissed off at me about that? Dude, grow up.

No, I'd rather you not take Christiaan for granted, do the opposite of what he told you, then steal his job because you want to be in charge. Grow up.

How about you congratulate the winners instead of trying to act all eye-candy for the staff, so they wouldn't ban you like they did in the past?

I would, if they won officially. Until Christiaan either gives you his job, which wouldn't work seeing as how you can't post news, or comes on saying you can do this for now, this is unofficial, unneeded, and against what Christiaan told you not to do.

I think it's quite obvious Christiaan, for whatever reason, ain't quite a reliable guy to do this. Besides, Christiaan himself said he wasn't the "RRR guy", and he also didn't seem to have any problem with me doing this job. I believe he was actually quite happy I took over, when he couldn't. And you know what, that's how communities work. When one can't do something, the other one helps them. Not to mention I was basically already accepted as a staff member, but Redink's absence caused him to never get the message.

Face it Skorn. The only one who has a problem with me posting the RRR here, is you.

Christiaan, himself, stated that he doesn't want you do do this because it's not your job. And he may have said he's not the RRR guy, but he's done it almost the entire time, and nobody bats an eye about that. Whoever the RRR guy was before obviously doesn't care, but Christiaan told you not to do this and you're on here, ignoring him because you think staff are lazy pricks and you feel you should be in charge of the entire network.

That is all.

Sorry, that ain't quite "the all", because you haven't even seen what we have spoken in PM's. It's true, Christiaan told me to not do this. He also told me he would get someone to do the RRR, if he couldn't do it, which he obviously didn't, so he ain't reliable. The rest of the staff never said I shouldn't do it, so it really doesn't matter if the most unreliable of the guys tells me to do something. I think it's extremely insulting to say I feel like I should be in charge of this network, when I don't. I feel like someone BETTER should be in charge of this network, and I do these things for *you* (the Dinkers) when the staff can't. Besides, it's the dang RESULTS POST!! Nobody gives a crap if it's the official, or the news post results. You can practically read them from the votes thread!

So from now on, if you're going to post something, talk about the actual topic.

He also told me he would get someone to do the RRR, if he couldn't do it, which he obviously didn't, so he ain't reliable.

But did he? No. So wait until Christiaan announces who is going to do the RRR. If he decides on you, then good for you charlie. *clap clap clap*. You've proven me wrong. But right now, you're defying staff. Stop trying to hide that.

I'm not hiding it. I am defying the staff. The results are already way over a month late, people were starting to get inpatient in that other thread, so I saw it fit to defy the staff for the good of this network. Sometimes you have to do this. You can't always please the staff, when you try to please the rest. You've defied the staff more than I ever did. You were banned, that's how much you defied them, so don't go all rambo on me for doing the same thing you did ten times worse. Also, this is The Dink Network. Stop making everything so deep and dramatic. In a small community like this, it really doesn't matter who posts this kinda stuff. The RRR has since the beginning been as good as unofficial.

And since you seem to not understand all of a sudden:
If you're going to post in this thread from now on, talk about the actual topic.

I think it's good that you did this skull, the admins seems to be very busy (= tierd of this site (but who isn't?)) lately.

Even if the staff are busy at the moment, you should never defy what a staff member tells you. Why can't you see this?

So...uh...congrats to the winners, however unofficial their victory may be... :\

Thanks Skull - I think it's great that you're keeping things up to speed - if the "big media" won't inform the people, it's the "freelance journos" who have to step up to the task. Good initiative.

I can live with that.

abs... just stow it.... boy your argument is pathetic.... leave skull alone.

Its staffs job to run the site, therefore I totally agree with Absolution - He was specifically told to stop, yet still he trys to flaunt the rules. This is the Dink network not the Skull Network, why do we have to put up with this. Back on ignore I guess.

^

If the mods here are lazy, why cant the members contribute?

what IM trying to say is, who cares if he should or shouldnt be doing it? if you dont view it as official, then ignore it.

only one reason, cause they're not mods no matter how much they want to be.

Skull should stick to what he does best, dinkerviews, playthrus or whatever, and not continually dictate to mods how to do their jobs - the topical words here being THEIR JOBS - not his, thats why! *shrugs*

Stuff like that just causes strife and I am sick to death of his power plays. What part of No doesnt he get? Its a small enough word and only 2 letters to understand.

Good point, but regardless, he's defying the staff.

Would you not steal a loaf of bread from a baker of you are dying of starvation?

You could ask.

As if he's give you.

Rephrase, please. That made no sense.

If I were dying of starvation, I think I would rather call the doctor. I don't want to get refeeding syndrome and arrested in the same day.

You could ask.

As if he(baker) would give you.(by asking)

LOL pilly very good

Pilly, now stop talking like a 14 year old.

If you had money to call a doctor, you could probably buy food for that amount.

Health insurance.

That is all.

hes right - eating when you are starving could kill you off

I could buy food for that amount. I might also die.

put up with this

Yeah. Because this is so trying, so difficult to live with - it's just destroying everyone's quality of life.

yeah because anarchy starts with one step

If someone was about to get run over by a car, would you rather respect the law, and stay behind the red lights or would you defy the law, run against the red lights and save the one who's going to get run over. The latter's what I did here. MsDink and Skorn, you've already shown that you run against the red lights WITHOUT saving the one being ran over, so you really have no right to say anything to me.

If you want to so much see the official results, then go count them in the voting thread, or just sit quiet and wait for the official results, which I'm pretty sure will come up within the next year or so, if at all.

EDIT: And as far as I recall Skorn, you didn't have any right to make an OFFICIAL Dink Smallwood Steam Group. Sure, you could have made an unofficial one, but the staff didn't give you a permission to make an official one, neither did Seth Robinson by the way, who happens to own the copyrights to Dink Smallwood. That's way worse than this, but did you see me ruining your thread by crying over small things like that, no. So please, just stop posting in this thread, or get on with the subject.

If the staff would be a cool enough guys to give that little "this D-Mod won this and that" in the files' description, it would be nice of them.

I know this one isn't official yet till the staff give the green light.
but one thing i can say i'm surprised i actually managed to get in the raknigs with my D-Mod and must say i'm glad i did but didn't expect it really since is my second officially released D-Mod(1 i'm still experimenting with stuff to add and another is on a hold till i know more tricks with Dink-c)
anyway congrats for the ther winners(and hope it get's official soon and that Skull doesn't get a ban for this)

Make Skull mod.

*starts making skull D-mod*

Yeah,skull should be a mod,he deserves it.

If skull becomes a mod, the first thing she would do is ban me, predator and DinkDoodler.

I wouldn't blame him

Who would?

Yeah,skull should be a mod,he deserves it.

Absolutely not.

Sadly duckhater I disagree with you. Not calling you out skull an this is an objective response but I personally think that the current force of mods is equaled out quite well with different opinions and way of doing things it's good for the website making skull a mod would throw them off.

@Godley I wouldn't ban you but then again I probaly couldn't ban Pred even if he killed off half the website (no offense Pred I have nothing against to you and I have made links for you in the past as an act of friendship but yoh are some what of an evil figure on the website) to nice for that.

Edit: dangit rambling in skulls dev thread again cut it loose mods
Edit:2 lol this isn't even his dev thread don't cut it mods.

Problem with the current staff is that they're never there when they should be, they don't always do what they should do, and they think they're some sort of Gods now that they've been accepted into the staff.

I wouldn't really trust that power into my own hands, but we need someone who actually knows what's going on around here and who checks in at least once a day.

EDIT: To Absolution, at least I would do a better job than Joshriot. You're just mad cause you've done so many unnacceptable things around here that you'd be instantly on my watch list.

Me? Well...no.
According to someone's advice (I mean anonymous person, not the user) I will now ignore Pred.
Staff can't ban, only redink1 can.

Well, thanks to Skull's bit of civil disobedience, I now know what D-Mods to spend time playing, if I ever get around to it. Since this didn't come through official channels, is it forbidden knowledge?
