Breja: I honestly have no idea what I did that was so dickish. I just explained how upside-down supporting Alaric is. I have simply described exactly what Alaric did, point for point.

foxworks: It's how you voice your opinion. I've observed your explanations to be very ... abrasive.
Maybe because I've been repeating them over and over, and it's things so obvious and simple they should not need to be explained at all. This really is like that scene from Anger Management.

Let me remind you, (and I'm saying it for what? 20th time?) we are dealing with a guy who outright, publicly stated his willingness to destroy the forum with means at his disposal if he doesn't get his way, and to share those means with know trolls, and that persons supporters. I think that as a active member of this forum for many years I have the right to lose my patience in a situation of, let's call it politely, such gross misconduct.

Kleetus: Because some people, especially one particular member, detest Alaric because of JerkMuter.

This one particular member also has a few chat buddies who tacitly support him.

Alaric.us: It's several people who are being horribly, over the top abusive to everyone who disagrees with them. This is why all those who support me in chat are not too eager to voice their support publicly. They simply don't want to put up with foul-mouthed abuse. And I fully approve of their decision to keep quiet. Just look at how Crewdroog got treated.

This is for suggesting that maybe deleting threads is not altogether a good idea. And it's coming from ostensibly a friend. Who will probably later say sorry and be surprised that "sorry" doesn't magically make everything you did go away.
I was actually a bit surprised the way Crewdroog was answered to. It was the first post I saw from him/her, and I thought it was rather thought out, well written observation.
Of course just my opinion and I don't know what has happened in the past, so I can't say one way or another about those times.

Honestly, though, as long as people keep it civil with me, I have no reason ignore/dismiss others' opinions/thoughts about the matter I'm even mildly interested in. I also don't want to get in the middle of a flame war, so I 100% understand why people wouldn't want to talk in public, as even I already wonder if I should take part of this all.

Kleetus, I can't say much about it but I read about the JerkMuter and at times it does look rather, tempting if negativity picks up. Unless I'll just completely stick with pure gaming threads only outside the general. I gotta say, your avatar for some reason makes me happy, it's perfect for Christmas.

omega64: Don't tell people, even trolls to kill themselves.
I get you're annoyed by him but that's going to far.

Alaric.us: LOL, what you mean like this:

Yes, exactly like that.
I don't approve of any instance of this happening. :P
If I do so I too should be called out on it.

Alaric is asking me to post something to him but he has me on JerkMuter.


SMART! :P

amok: so is mine... The downreppers kept the thread alive - had they ignored it, it would have died on day 1.

At best, then, you can call it self abuse.
Let's try again. >clears throat<

Deleting spam doesn't make you a spammer, regardless of whether some asshat takes it as a reason to spam more. That's insane. That's like saying that cops are guilty of resisting arrest, because if they didn't arrest people, there would be nothing to resist.

tinyE: Would you like me to rephrase it so that I'm asking him rather than telling him?
Go right ahead, then we can go back to the good old days, I have some great new lines.

Just don't complain about me if you do.

I'd rather you refrain from doing so at all.

Isn't that what Sachys said about you not taking his side against me right before he flipped out, called everybody a chump, and left?

Please stop posting facts. What are you? My supporter or something? You'll get what's coming to you if so!

I don't approve of your activities either if that's what you want to hear. :P

Jesus Christ, I'm not making this up. You yourself have seen Alaric say exactly what I 'm talking about in this thread here! You want more? Here you go. I am not making this up. I am not Sachys, lashing out for no reason. All I am doing, is stating the reason over and over, even though everyone can see it for themselves. THis realy is Twilight Zone.

adaliabooks: I know for a fact that is the case. After the account overhaul there are three parts of the site that weren't updated; the forum, the support section and the Gogmixes. Of those only one is truly important to what Gog does, and it's not the forum.
So which do you think is first on the list to get an overhaul?
And why do you think they were left behind in the first place while everything else was made shiny and new?
Because the forum doesn't bring them more money and it isn't strictly functional to Galaxy. I'm not sure what are we arguing about here.

We were talking about this 5 mins fix Alaric proposed, and nobody besides him believe will be done. VSR reasoned that they probably can't do that, since they are hiring programmers. No programmers = no fix.
Then I replied that maybe (and I stress, maybe) there's still someone at Gog who could take care of it, as long as Gog thinks it's worth the effort. That's all.

Maybe it is as you say, the current programmers simply haven't had the chance to get accustomed to the forum's code. I can't claim to have any inside knowledge of how things at Gog works. I don't care much either way, to be honest.

In the end though, the bottom line is that we both agree that Gog don't want to put enough effort on fixing their own forum. Do we really need to agree on how exactly they can't be arsed to do it? :P
