Yep… This still happens at the MOUL forums.

You know, it’s been awhile since I’ve seen any severe moderating over at the MOUL forums, then again they haven’t exactly been the liveliest. This, however was brought to my attention.

http://mystonline.com/forums/viewtopic. … 687#386687

They were referencing this thread which apparently got deleted, revived, deleted then revived again? Why? I don’t know. All that was mentioned was a slight difference in jumping after the latest update.

Adi wrote:The one about the change in jumping after the latest update. There is a handful of people including myself waiting to reply, and now we can’t. ^^

After reading this I already knew this wasn’t going to end well…

Alien wrote:NOTE TO MODS : Please do not delete this thread or any posts in it, such action will result in me taking the matter higher.
The subject matter is about threads / posts being deleted, and deleting posts or the thread will only aggravate the situation further

First things first. It helps to know how to be an administrator of your home forum before going around telling people what they can do on theirs. Otherwise what can be seen as standing up for someone will actually be seen as the pot calling the kettle black. There are better ways of doing this, but on the MOUL forum every potential way will be incorrect if it references a closed thread. That’s just the way it is unfortunately…

Alien wrote:OK, fair enough, but I’d still like to address the issue of threads and / or posts being deleted with no explanation.
With regards to Christine’s and my threads, we both (and I am sure Christine won’t mind me speaking for her this one time), we both feel they were deleted unfairly. Not getting an explanation just added insult to injury.

All I have to say to this is: Welcome to the official MOUL forums. 🙂

Now a word from the person who was moderated:

Isobel wrote:Yes, it would be nice to receive some notice as to what i said that warranted deletion. If a long time explorer can’t make a criticism without being deleted like this (when i know others share the same concern), it makes me despair for the future of MOULa.

Then semplerfi comes in and basically points out “SSDD”

semplerfi wrote:This is not going to happen and this thread will disappear shortly. There is a Moderator that does not have to follow the forum rules. We have been trying to get this addressed for years around here to no avail. Chogon will say that Cyan lets the mods interpret & enforce the rules as they (mods) see fit. The last time the community tried to get this address we lost great two interns and the moderater is still killing dialog on the forum.
Isobel wrote:And is very close to making a long time explorer (and donater) find somewhere where she is appreciated, but i guess that is no big deal?

At this point I think the Team Fortress 2 section of the Steam forums is far friendlier…

Now coming to a close, we see the thread wasn’t “veralun’d”, rather it was “Mac Attacked”

Mac_Fife wrote:Ok, I’m presuming that the post in question is this one: http://mystonline.com/forums/viewtopic. … 674#386674

I’ve looked into this and can find no evidence that the post was ever removed. By “removed” I mean “hidden from view” because the moderators don’t delete posts except in very rare circumstances. I can’t see any history on this but as a new thread it may have been merged into a pre-existing, current thread on the same subject (which can cause some links that use thread IDs instead of post IDs to “lose” it) and then moved back, but so far as I can tell it was never anywhere other than where it is now.

No moderator/user logs phpBB2 FTW.

Mac_Fife wrote:Before people start accusing moderators of doing things, it would probably be courteous to PM one of the mods and ask: The forum policies still prohibit public disputation of moderation – see Policy VII – so I’m now going to lock this thread.

Yes, PM the mods and ask them what you may have done wrong. Because they sure as hell aren’t going to be the ones to PM you… Believe me, I learned that from the time I was wrongfully banned from the MOUL forum.

“No more Mr Nice Guy”

Stumbled upon this site and lmao’d.

Here are my favorite nut pickin’s

Did you ever notice that only a woman can talk about the superiority of her own sex without getting booed or scolded?

He has a point there. Men never do this. Never in my life have I ever seen men talk about themselves as being the super ultra mega superior gender. I mean seriously. To suggest otherwise is nothing more than a fairytale.

Did you ever notice there is no shortage of excuses and tolerance whenever sexist speech or behavior comes from a woman? And did you ever notice that any woman who claims to be concerned about “inequality” usually manages to studiously ignore (or angrily deny) the inequalities that favor her?

Ah you mean like how men also try to ignore inequalities that favor them? C’mon you’re gonna have to try a little harder than that! 🙂

Finding ways to talk about those (and other) things is probably one reason you’re here. If you’re a first-time visitor, before you start going all mad at me and sending death threats and hate mail, you should start-off by reading: why I think U.S. women rank among the most sexist humans on the planet, the Top 10 Criticisms I’ve gotten so far… my self-introduction and last but not least, my explanation for why I started this site and why I’ve chosen exile from American gals.

So you’re off the American market then. Nice to see the property values have gone up. 🙂

This page is about, essentially, why NiceGuy thinks Ameriskanks (mostly) Suck *. Such as: their extreme and gleeful sexism. Their accompanying denials of their sexism.

IOW what you’re doing right now. 🙂 r u a girl?

This page is about, essentially, why NiceGuy thinks Ameriskanks (mostly) Suck *. Such as: their extreme and gleeful sexism. Their accompanying denials of their sexism. Their head-games. Their double-standards and double-speak. Their massive and despicable hypocrisies. Their verbal abuse. Their thanklessness. Their narcissism. Their lies within lies within lies. Their never-ending, sanctimonious victimhood mentality. The bigotry they thinly-disguise as “humor”. Their mouthy temper-tantrums. Their “I want everything whether I deserve it or not” attitude. Their unceasing complain-a-thons. Their demands to be continuously pampered and showered with money. The fact that they will spread their legs for a man who gives them enough jewelry, yet will deny their obvious whoring. Their convenient blindness to the fact that they scapegoat men and screw-over men constantly. Their knee-jerk denials whenever it comes time to evaluate their own flaws in an honest fashion. How they’ll complain of men failing to express their emotions while simultaneously ignoring male emotions with smarmy cries of “take it like a maaaayaaan!” The fact that they routinely behave outrageously unfairly towards men yet always demand that men treat them fairly… Did I miss anything?

You didn’t describe women. You just described everyone in the GOP. Well done.

As for the Ameriskanks between the ages of 16 and 35, they occupy a special place in my heart. If you’ve ever met any, then you’ve probably come-away with the impression that they’re (mostly) hopelessly spoiled, incurably psychotic, compulsively mendacious, irredeemably corrupt and intrinsically toxic human beings.

Oh flattery will get you everywhere. 😉

That’s why I moved-away from ’em: I get quite a bit of comfort from knowing I have distanced myself safely beyond the reach of their vile claws. And nowadays I simply view those trolls with a mixture of bemusement and contempt. Especially since quite a few of ’em seem to believe they’re “oppressed” because they get whistled-at occasionally and the Barbie dolls are too curvy. (Pathetic, but true!)

Yeah, that whole paycheck fairness act that didn’t pass in congress wasn’t women getting oppressed. It was to protect small businesses from going under. Sorry ladies. Someone has to suffer so it might as well be you. But don’t worry, you’re just as equal as men are!

When you come to a country like Japan, the egregious hypocrisy and nastiness of Ameriskanks comes-out in spades. For instance: if you ever call an Ameriskank a “slut”, they’ll explode in fury. “Why is it when a woman asserts her sexuality, she’s a slut?!” they’ll screech. But when they come to Japan they’ll see foreign men with Japanese girlfriends and get angry because they’re not the center of attention anymore. So they’ll start to grumble that Japanese women must be a bunch of sluts(!) Hilarious.

Ah, now we come to the part where we pull data from another country to make the point they’re failing miserably to complete. SSDD

And “Where are the REAL men?” they’ll demand, while wearing their Wonderbras, mascara and lipstick. “Why aren’t there any REAL men left?” they’ll whine, with their hair-extensions and acrylic nails. Utterly moronic.

Sigh I really wish you would stop talking about the GOP in that manner. Not all of them are like that.

Ok, I can’t read anymore of this. I need to get back to doing my usual nerd stuff.

So I heard something about some guy named George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina

You can read the original article that I read. It’s a good read. Or this link here where I originally found it.

It seems George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina doesn’t know how teh internetz works. George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina tweeted to Sandra Fluke. If you don’t know who Sandra Fluke is here is an article. Here is the tweet:

Of course when George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina wrote this tweet, George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina thought he was only using his “inside voice”, because you know. REAL men like George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina tend to quietly yell at women over the internet from the safety of their monkey sheets in mom’s basement. Y’know, just to show them whose more dominant! However, George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina didn’t expect her to retweet what George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina said so that her thousands of female followers could see how much of a redfaced redneck George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina actually is! So anyway, I guess George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina decided to google George Tierney and HOLY DICK SAUCE!!!! The internet remembered what he said! What are the odds?

But wait!!! It gets better!!!

George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina contacts Jane Hampshure of Firedog lake with some interesting demands.

Whoever runs this site needs to take my damn comments off of it. I did not give you permission, nor did you ask me for it. It shows up on google and I will see a lawyer if this doesnt disappear. Ask me before posting bullshit about me. You fuckers had no right.

Sincerely,

George Tierney Jr

Then George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina gets a response.

Dear Mr. Tierney,

It is site policy to establish that you are actually George Tierney, and not someone claiming to be him, in order to engage you on this matter further. Please have your lawyer confirm that you are in fact the George Tierney referred to in the post and I will be happy to discuss the matter with him. My contact information is below.

Oh but it gets better…

You dont get to make the rules. I am the george tierney that made the comments to sandra fluke, not to you..take it off google. If it goes to a lawyer, it will be settled in court, with me getting paid.

Sincerely,

George Tierney Jr

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHHA… oh wait. George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina seriously thinks that’s how the internet works. That is just so terribly hilarious. Sorry Mr George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina, but that’s not how the internet works. It’s like Las Vegas, whatever happens on google, stays on google.

So in conclusion I think I found the lesson here:

…and now that all that money he spent on eHarmony is just fucking wasted because ladies will not want to go on a date with him ever ever again besides the fact that all he ever wants to talk about is golf which is like the third gayest sport ever. Besides, also: boring.

The lesson is why use eHarmony to look for women when you can just say stupid shit to Sandra Fluke or some other popular woman? You’ll be surrounded by more women than you could ever shake your stick at!

 

Edited to add George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina. It needed to be done.

 

Update

It seems George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina has posted another tweet. George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina’s father George Tierney Sr is getting harassed by people that sonny boy George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina pissed off. So if you want to give him some love, or gay porn you can email him atgeotie2323@yahoo.com

Lord Murray hath doneth spoketh!

The other day, I stepped into this thread over at the MOUL forum and ran across a post from an old “friend”. I have taken the liberty to “translate” this post in an attempt to help others better understand where he’s coming from. 😉

Murray: As a VERY long term dedicated Myst/URU fan, going back to 1993

Wow, ain’t he special… I wonder if anyone else in the community that has been around this long! He sounds soooo unique!

Murray: I cannot BELIEVE the nonsense that I am reading today, particularly in this thread.

Shorter Murray: This has NEVER happened before!! I am so shocked by all of you!!!

Murray: How on earth do you people ever expect this game to progress with all the negativity that has gone on for months, even years on end.

Cyan missed that boat a looooong time ago. Closing the barn door after the horses are long gone and all that…

Murray: The lot of you need to take a damn good look in the mirror and see yourselves.

We do. Sometimes multiple times a day. And we like what we see!

Murray: Most of what I read here is belligerent rubbish that goes round and round in circles. In fact, this very thread is an endless, tiresome rehash of the same old meaningless rows that have been going nowhere, and probably brought this poor forum to its knees. It is the same old racket by the same old rabble.

And I thought you liked anything or anyone on their knees…

Murray: Looking at the attacks at Veralun for instance, one cannot believe the stupidity of the arguments put forward to date. Once upon a time, even I crossed swords with him,

It doesn’t surprise me in the slightest that you would cross swords with each other. As I recall you had a hard enough time sheathing yours.

Murray: but it was soon resolved, and over the last 6 or 7 years, there has been peace. In fact there has been a respectable friendship. And we still cross swords, just not verbally.

Fixed.

Murray: He is a hell of a nice guy when you really get to know him. I respect the man for his incredible dedication to sword crossing.

Improved. 😉

Murray: All I see is vague accusations of all the wrongs he has done to some, but never anything concrete. I feel he is nothing but a scapegoat.

We all know how much you love your goats.

Murray: In fact, I have not seen a peep out of him for months now, yet you continue to bash and batter him, ever loudly demanding his expulsion. I tell you, he deserves a medal for all he’s had to put up with. To attack Veralun at this point in time is utter rubbish.

Not one peep eh? Then what’s this? He’s not doing anything wrong here mind you. But that does count as a peep. Exactly what I would expect this kind of statement from the guy that can’t keep track of how many cats he has or let alone how old he is…

Murray: Talking about attitudes: I have seen with my own eyes, that people bragged about taunting posts they put in this forum, then placing bets elsewhere how long it would take them to get deleted. When the posts did indeed disappear, they would congratulate each other what a short time it took, and plan on the next snarky post. A very mean and sick game, in my estimation.

If we already know it’s going to happen then why not bet as to how long it’s going to take? Why not have some fun while waiting for the inevitable?

Murray: I have seen blogs where past moderators have had problems with certain members of this community, and their protests paralleled the same nonsense that is still going on today, with largely the identical individuals. Some of our trusted friends, who were of great value to this community, have left permanently because of the horrid attacks directed at them. Frankly, we don’t blame them.

Murray: Sophia and I have long stopped posting in here, knowing it was futile and only leading to more arguments,but we do have the occasional peek.

Which is why you came back to post right?

Murray: Seeing Chogon provoked the way he was, is heartbreaking. Think for one minute all the efforts the likes of Chogon and the rest of Cyan have put into keeping this community together,

More than you could ever know.

Murray: it is about time you showed a little support for them, not go on incessantly about the way the forum is run. It is our last vestige of communication. If you destroy that, then we are finished.

If your goal is to see things become more civil at the MOUL forum, I don’t think this helps. You come across as an opinionated ass with a “I need to be your daddy” complex. There are far better ways to get your point across. Remember, you can attract a lot more flies with honey than vinegar. I’m not saying the people at the MOUL forum are flies, which is obvious. I’m just stating this so I won’t get attacked for calling everybody a bunch of flies.

You know how sensitive everyone is.

Murray: don’t want to ever hear anything against the mods, or your perceived problems with them. No sane individual could put up with all the nonsense they have had to deal with for years.

Yes sir Mr Cyan! Will do Mr Cyan! Hey btw Mr Cyan, can you tell Rand to get off his ass and make Uru a success? I mean, you’re obviously the one in charge here.

Murray: Not one of you could ever begin to fill their seats. My wife frequents several other open source forums and communities including a few Linux ones, and never, ever does she see the crap that goes on here.

Apples > Oranges > Bananas > Cucumbers > Kumquats

Variety is the spice of life. Not all places are the same and trying to compare them that way is ridiculous.

Murray: The debates have gone on ad nauseum, and it is time the lot of you grow up, especially if you want to see a future for URU.

Shorter Murray: Get off my damn lawn you crazy kids!

Nice performance Murr. Must have taken you back to your old acting days writing that one up…

Oh, and before I forget… FORE!

So far this seems to be the best way to solve the veralun problem.

From the MOUL forums:

Thanks guys! You really know how to trash a place.

I don’t think you realize how close this forum is to being completely readonly. But then maybe that is your objective.

–Chogon

It would be sad to see it go. How will the Uru community go on without that lively and useful information resource filled with the most friendliest moderators you could ever find at a webforum? The fate of Uru still being able to work depends on this forum still being around as is in it’s golden intact state!!! If this logic is wrongfully thought out then I don’t want to be right.

I suggest breaking out some popcorn for this thread too.

Yes… Our evil take over is almost complete.

http://uruobsession.com/forum/index.php … d-funding/

It seems Denny is offering either donations or the database for someone to run on their webspace. Phase one will be Slackers purchasing it and turning it into Slackers Obsession (dedicated to My Little Pony and Cornography). After taking over we can focus on the MystOnline forums. Then finally we can replace each and every one of the forum members with mindless bots and THEN we can… wait a minute. That is the Uru community in a nutshell. I’m going to have to go back to the drawing board on this one.

“No Women Allowed”

So I was going through my Really Stupid Shit Feed and found something really stupid. Not by the author (I do agree with them). Rather what’s being discussed in the post.

Their blog post.

Then I started to read further into this over at Kotaku.

“Nothing ruins a good LAN party like uncomfortable guests or lots of tension, both of which can result from mixing immature, misogynistic male-gamers with female counterparts,”

As I read these articles I couldn’t help but be reminded of the fuckwits on the right that single out Islam for how badly they treat women, and here they are banning people from a fucking Texas LAN party for having a vagina? Why don’t you just slap a fucking burqa on them then, at least everyone will be wearing robes…

“We actively discourage gamers from being the kind of mysogynistic jackwagons seen in the Reddit post, and such behavior should not be tolerated. Frankly, we don’t like that kind of player either. And to punish them we shall ban all women from the event. That’ll really show those guys whose in charge! So far as this event goes, it is an special event designed specifically for male gamers. Further, it is meant as a getaway designed to help said male contingent become better men both for themselves and for those who love us.”

Fixed for accuracy. Any women who love guys like these have to be suffering from Stockholm Syndrome.

It’s just sad that certain guys can’t accept reality. Then again this is taking place in Texas so…

And now I love Japan even more

Went through my really stupid shit feed and came across this golden nugget on teh interwebz:

For realzies. Whether I’m playing scavenge or versus or campaign, the JP players just don’t want to play. They are content with just setting up a tent at the chapter spawn and just chilling. It’s ing annoying as . I haven’t gotten into a decent server since I got this game. It’s like this that makes me regret moving here.

The funny part is that I actually like chill people over the anal retentive twats that like to play the game one way and one way only. I mean come on, I play the game the way it was intended AND otherwise. Seriously, you might as well play it on a console if you’re going to be close minded.

Boys and their toys

Well, if any of you thought the Yaoi on my blog over the years was bad, just wait until you read what I saw syndicated over at MystBlogs. I’m sure at some point it’ll get removed from both there and thednijazzclub, but since I’m not syndicated over there it’s time to have a little fun…
