The end is here so what the hell. Go ahead and ask me anything VN related. Questions, drama, etc. That doesn't mean I will answer but since we are in the final stretch, go ahead and ask. Just realize if you go full dick, I will go full asshole and edit your post. Keep old hatreds out of this if you have them, with me or others. I dont want a flame war here and will ban if I get it. I am sure some of you have some old burning questions. As I said, I wont answer them all.

If I give you a negative post count, then I have to give everybody else that if they ask. It is easier to say no and not deal with the whining, than say yes and open a flood gate. Only Managers can do this if they want. None of us want too except Teddy. the_great_intex posted: Define "merge," are you really considering joining the two great forces on the VN into a single unit?
Do you mean Outpost and ACFriends? They are staying separate.

What was the real reason Loktofeit quit being a mod and went to work elsewhere? Rumor has it he left because he couldn't ban or deal with certain posters, who shall remain nameless, in the manner he wanted. Truth or just vicious rumor?

Osmethne was Loktofit. Osmethne was the big red face monster. He lost his post count and log in on that guy somehow and had to start using Loktofit.

The way IGN works, I figured I was accurate. I did know that we would probably get a message at some point with little warning though and it seems like that is what happened.

I barely remember him or why he left if you want the truth but I know if I started looking it would all rush back (he changed his name at one point right?). I could look it up but out of respect for his work and time here, if I had fired him or he quit over something, I wouldn't tell you about it anyways. The Managers and myself have "fired" mods over the years for various reasons (some big, some small) and we just don't talk about it and this is a rule I made myself for our staff btw, it was never from IGN. We don't even tell other Moderators except in a few cases where they leaked admin notes and we wanted to make an example. Basically, I never felt it was anybodies business to know what the reasons were, especially because of how seriously some people made these boards their life. Why? Moderators, especially in the old days, put in a LOT of time and effort dealing with this place. Sometimes they put a foot wrong and got fired over it. I saw no reason to try and "trash them" or give them a public flogging over it. Its a game forum. Very little of it seriously mattered anyways. Why make it worse for a Moderator who only tried to do their best (even if they were wrong)? They can hate me if they want, it doesn't matter to me, but I still have respect for them as people and the effort they put in.

Interesting. Among the mods, I truly respected Lok. He was a great guy. It just kind of surprised me that one day he was gone. I get the feeling he stepped down for personal reasons, which I understand should remain private. Thanks.

What will I do? No idea yet. I believe I am to keep my Moderator Status on that side and will probably stick around and Moderate ACF. I know I will not get Administrative rights and everything in my head will no doubt be wasted but whatever. We will see. Ardenwolfe posted: Ah! I didn't know they were the same person or that that had happened to him. Yes, the guy with the beholder-like DOOM avatar. That probably explains why the name sounded familiar. . . .
Osmenthe.. ya now I remember his name before we changed it. He was a good guy overall, a good moderator IMO and intelligent. He figured he was always right. The last part was probably why I never promoted him if I remember right. I like Moderators that challenge me (ask the Managers if you don't believe I want people to challenge our decisions) but I don't like belligerence. He was probably too close to my own personality when all is said and done, but I have a lot of respect for him. Steelwind_Oo posted: Have I got any mod notes?
Yes. Mangler_SC posted: PM me any and all Mod notes I have. If you don't, what the funk good are you?
No, I would have to remove the names of who moderated you to prevent you from freaking out at the Moderator. This is the prime reason you guys don't get admin notes. We learned a long time ago it isn't worth it. We CAN do it if we want, but none of us thinks its worth the issues you cause. (No offense Mangler).

I could go into great detail as to why Lok quit. However I'm not going to bring up old drama without many of the players here to give their side of things. I will say it had nothing to do with not being able to ban certain people or any of that kind of stuff. There were other factors in play. My question for you... Whose decision was it to hire Rose and do they regret said decision?

Motar98 posted: would you consider converting your basement into a server room to host all the vn boards
I actually considered doing a board for you guys... it would mean betraying Teddy though. Ardenwolfe posted: So . . . ACF is one of the boards that will transfer, eh? Any word as others? Heck, I know it's been asked, but what about the post counts per user. Will they transfer over or get nuked? Do you know yet?
We don't know 100% yet. ACF and Outpost are the two I am pretty sure will transfer over in whole. Caledric posted: I could go into great detail as to why Lok quit. However I'm not going to bring up old drama without many of the players here to give their side of things. I will say it had nothing to do with not being able to ban certain people or any of that kind of stuff. There were other factors in play. My question for you... Whose decision was it to hire Rose and do they regret said decision?
The first time or second time? I think Aurum hired her the first time but I don't recall. I was on Thistledown at the time moderating and didn't care about what the other Mods or Site people were doing, provided they stayed the hell off my boards. I would assume one of the IGN people hired her the second time. EbonDragon posted: Can I be special?
No, only me. This is my thread, in tribute to you guys. the_great_intex posted: He has got to be past 200k I would presume Bonk is more or less part of the VN Boards IMHO posted: Is The_Great_Intex and The_Great_Ontex really two different people?
You shouldn't answer that Mithan!
Same guy. -Prismatic- posted: Will my VIP carry over?
No idea. Ibbeh posted: Why are they the VN boards?
The original Ultima Online Vault was created by Gasper. I guess it just sounded like a catchy name. When they opened up the EQ and AC Vault, they also called it the Vault Network, thus VN Boards. Dark_EternalFF posted: Have mods ever had sex with each other and if so which ones
I am actually pretty far out when it comes to mod drama, which is probably why I survived so long. I actually do not know. Furthermore, I actually do not care.

While I doubt anything account related will cary over (post counts, bans, etc), I don't know. It could cause issues so don't do anything that stupid.

No idea. Probably Tuesday or Wednesday evening is my guess. If bugs happen, they would want it to happen in the middle of the week so they can fix them by the weekend.

My bet is that the URL for vnboards.ign.com will redirect to the boards.ign.com main page and you will see an Vault Network catagory. That would be the smart thing to do. However, .... lol.

I have a surprisingly long list of mod notes... Confirm/Deny?: Arch does nothing but troll people, name call and cause problems. The Mods were told specifically by you to deal with it because he brings traffic into the site, and was basically untouchable because of this.

Yes, I know, but they are doing it in stages apparently. Not all the other boards, even though active, have been alerted yet. Hence my question.

Webscar posted: I have a surprisingly long list of mod notes... Confirm/Deny?: Arch does nothing but troll people, name call and cause problems. The Mods were told specifically by you to deal with it because he brings traffic into the site, and was basically untouchable because of this.
lol who told you that load of s***? I've never told moderators to "ignore Arch because he causes traffic" specifically. I have told Moderators we are shifting strategy overall because it causes traffic but that is a different question you would need to ask and it isn't specific to Arch, it is specific to ACF's overall moderator strategy of the last 4 or 5 years. He just fell within it, as several others did that would have been permabanned back in the day and I do not regret the decision. As for Arch specifically, he has been banned a lot of times so I disagree with you and he would certainly disagree with you. When you are both unhappy, then it means that my job has been somewhat done. Its complicated though and I don't want to turn this into a flame war, who done it, etc, etc so I am not going to discuss him further.

If I felt you guys were capable of just listening to a full opinion on the entire state of that issue without jumping in to finger point or defend yourself, thus escalating the situation, I would. Since you can't, I wont. Lets leave it at that. Everybody is "culpable", even you. Who cares, its a board. Move on. Ask about general ACF if you want. HeartView posted: Do I have mod notes? [face_innocent]
2 pages. Arch_Magi posted: Is all of vnboards going down, or just ACF? Should we be saying our goodbyes on other vnboards like Harvestgain, etc?
5 to 10 boards. I only know what we told them to move, not what will move. Harvestgain isn't on the list. Dark_EternalFF posted: How many pages are my mod notes?
Only 5. Tipztoe posted:

2 pages. I doubt they will be carried over nor should they, you should all get a new start over there. The rules are different so who cares. Ordal posted:

Wow, I guess that explains why I wasn't banned for like 3 years straight either. Interesting.
I don't know how "bad" you are, but you would fall into the general shift we did in strategy.

You know what's even more funny, in the code that monitors them, the Moderator viewing them is actually tracked and stored so Management can see who is doing what on the backend database .... or so I've been told.

I don't remember. We did have a thread on the AC Mod board about this from 5 or 6 years ago. I remember one banned user replying to the UBR with "quack quack quack" and I replied with "Dick stuck in the duck?". The mods look at notes far more than we these days. EbonDragon posted: How many pages are my mod notes?
3 Bork_the_orc posted: Has working on the VN Boards been rewarding?
Yes. It's been a good learning experience and what I have learned here has actually been useful in real life situations. I have a few regrets but overall, I think it was worth it. I got something out of it at least. I spent too much time here in the first few years and regret that. My biggest regret is not being able to capitalize on it in some way, but I never tried either. Dark_EternalFF posted: Oh, how about this - who is the user in all of VN with the most pages of mod notes? Is it GinsuWife? Arch? Someone not on ACF?
No idea. Some of the mods or managers might know who. Bork_the_orc posted: Why did Grendel commit suicide last year?

Sweet Mary or Alerious Shades from TD probably had the most evades ever. Repeat bans on one account? Not sure.

What is ACF's Moderator Strategy (Really? There's a Strategy?)... and why did it change?

I think what happened is that somebody decided to flip the switch and do it really soon, while the rest of the people were not prepared or expected it later. I don't really know, its all speculation on my part. However, while typing this, I found out I will get an email "Soon" on what is happening. Soon could be monday for all I know.

If we already have copies of our mod notes, are you going to care if we start posting snippets (that don't contain any user names moderator or otherwise)? Mine for the most part are boring (and rightfully deserved), but my husband has some notes that are just crazy insane hilarious.

I will do this once, and once only because you worked for us and were never bad. I edited out the name of the one mod warning you got.

Interesting... wasn't expecting you to post it, thanks. I didn't remember that warning so I had to go back and look through my PMs to see who gave it to me lol.

Personally, I'd just like a legitmate answer why I was permabanned TWICE for things that other people were doing at the same time I was, and to a greater extent. Frequently banned for the same things MY WIFE was saying as well, in less veiled speech. Don't think it was your doing personally, but I never could fathom why on earth consistent rules couldn't ever have been developed or maintained here. What's happening to the "vaults" content, like AC Vault? You guys have content on there that I contributed, and frankly, I didn't give rights to IGN to use it, and would rather see it deleted than the hugely remote possibility that they make money off of it.

Hey Mithan ... how about you go goose Teddy and see if you can secure a couple of VIP status passes for a week, and hold a contest on each of the boards that you are moving over (ACF, Outpost, etc). Maybe something like "Pick the date and time that the "plug will be pulled" for board x" and the person who is closest, gets VIP status for a week on the new place. Obviously you will have to make the cut off date and time something like Sunday at 6pm EST, so no one gets wind of it. Why not make death fun?

Moderator? No. Not under this alias. No one on vnboard was crazy enough to actually make me a Moderator. I was a Board Manager though ... specifically, Vanguard Vault. Normally Managers have Moderator powers by default, but the rumors were that in order to allow me access to the Moderators hidden private board, they would have had to spend over 38,200 hours cleaning up all the posts about me before they could let me in so I wouldn't see all the smack talk done about me, and it was decided to just not give me access to Moderator stuff. Didn't really matter though, I dated a Moderate, then later on married a different Moderator, not to mention ... well, nevermind ... so I know all to well what went on "behind closed doors".

-Mithan- posted: I have told Moderators we are shifting strategy overall because it causes traffic but that is a different question you would need to ask and it isn't specific to Arch, it is specific to ACF's overall moderator strategy of the last 4 or 5 years. He just fell within it, as several others did that would have been permabanned back in the day and I do not regret the decision.
What is ACF's Moderator Strategy (Really? There's a Strategy?)... and why did it change?
Here is some of the deal, in brief and leaving out a lot of detail: (I modded TD from June 2001 to 2003, then I became Admin in summer of 2003, I had AC2HQ for a few years there as well) Back in the early days, the VN Boards were all run as separate communities. Moderators had very loose rules on what to do on their boards but ran things as they saw fit. This was not consistent across boards obviously and caused issues, but things could be "tuned" to the Community itself. There were pro's and con's to this approach. In 2002, people in charge decided to start responding to calls of inconsistency, by trying to make all the rules AND how Moderators did things the same across all boards. This was good and bad. Making Moderators consistant is a good thing, forcing all the boards on a forum as varied as Vault Network, was stupid. That being said, the people in charge at that time had nothing to go on so it isn't like they knew any better. This is also just after IGN purchased us and started changing rules. I still remember the day Tal from IGN dropped into the Global Mod Forum and told us "no profanity is allowed anymore". I remember it because it was a stupid decision done in response to Chylama and others sending in complaints about "profanity" directly to IGN and it should have been done via Profanity Filter. There were other decisions dropped like that, some good and some bad. Again, Tal didn't know the repurcusions of his actions at the time or how many thousands of people would be banned as a result. When I took over in 2003, the push to "normalize" all the Forums was in place and my directives were pretty clear, so I continued with it and didn't mind it. What I did not like though was the "Sunday Schoolification" of the VN Boards that was happening as a direct response to a minority of people complaining and a specific Manager who prefered this style of Board. I was an "old school" Mod who swore like a sailor until that was removed, so I didn't care for the baby everybody approach but I did it and followed my orders. Were the people complaining about the boards and this Manager wrong? In my view, yes. The community is full of teenagers and young adults so expecting them to act like they are in a Sunday School (no swearing, be nice to each other, etc, etc) was wrong. Changing the boards to cater to these "complainers" who expected a Sunday School atmosphere was a f***ing travesty. Anyways, I was initially instructed to continue with the "Sunday Schoolification of the VN Boards", though not in those words but coming in after a Mod Riot and a time when a lot of "Sunday School" mods were hired and directly butted heads with us older school mods, I strove for peace initially, which meant Status Quo, which meant board purges and strict rules and other things. For a while. The above "strictness" is why you guys got the book slammed at you so often. ACF was considered a s*** hole at the time by most of us, people frequently complained about how ACF was out of control, etc, etc. This happened to other boards too and we stupidly, fell in line and tried to purge it. I used to post on ACF back in the early 200's but stayed off after I was the Admin. We had a lot of pressure and directives to "do something about it" but I had the power to say no, and didn't. That was a failing on my part but I didnt know better at the time. We did a number of "losening" changes to the rules from 2004 to 2007 and slowly over time the Sunday Schoolers mostly quit but the culture was still there. We also made a LOT of changes to how we moderated, some good and some bad. In 2007 though, some things became obvious to me: The boards were in decline, VN was no longer relevant as a network and had a limited lifespan of 2-4 years before it was done (I was off by a year it seems), we were strangling the posters we had left with overly tight rules, no new people were coming because the sites were not good, etc, etc. Basically, we are too corporate. We can not compete with a start up site like MMO Champion or WoWHead or whatever new site will develop that has all the latest awesome developments in Web Tech going for it for upcoming games like Guild Wars 2 and other games. Why come to our boards when you can go to a Developer Board and have your opinion read? We tried opening new boards, they failed. In 2008, I decided to shift focus and focus on what was left to us to focus, which was the "strangling of the posters via the rules". I reasoned that most of you were only here because of habit and "friends" and didn't care about games anymore and just wanted to shoot the s*** about whatever. Tight Rules don't allow that. I "discussed" changing rules with our entire team and I got too much push back and argument from various corners because what I wanted to do was directly in conflict with the Mod Culutre we had built over the last 8 years. The mod culture of "Sunday School" was strong even though we had an amazing team of Managers and Mods at this point but I think people were just scared. What did I WANT to do? I wanted to tear everything down and start over but that wasn't going to happen. So what DID I do? I told Teddy I was going to launch a campaign to loosen up the board rules. He was on board. I made some changes to the board rules and instructed the Moderators to "loosen up" all over the boards. This is probably where you got the idea that I was saying ARCH could specifically troll all he wanted. He couldn't, at least no more or less than the rest of you guys trolling. Then I did what no sane administrator should do and in the summer of 2008, I jumped into the boards and started tearing out the walls we had created. It was my own Shock and Awe. I think MForce and Foxy freaked out and probably hated me for a bit, but they eventually got over it. At least I hope, because I did a bad thing to them and am sorry for that. The rest of the Moderators probably figured I was crazy. Either way, the walls came down on ALL the boards and Moderators had no choice but to loosen up because that is what their crazy administrator who was mysteriously not being fired, had just done to them, whether they liked it or not. What was the purpose of this? As I said, the writting was on the wall. The VN Sites could not compete with the other sites out there and the VN Boards had no relevance in an age of Developer Boards. I figured I might as well give you guys your freedom back and wait until we closed the doors and merged with IGN, which I actually expected to happen in 2010 or 2011. I reasoned it would stem the bleeding, and it did. Since 2008, you have pretty much had the same freedoms you had in 2001. You guys are no longer banned for profanity, can spam threads a lot more, you do your stupid "for fun" copy cast threads, you can troll and argue amongst yourselves, etc. I don't care if it was right or wrong because at the end of the day, if I had to do the VN Boards over again knowing what I know now, I would have never have taken the job and would have started my own system and retired by now

Frequently banned for the same things MY WIFE was saying as well, in less veiled speech. Don't think it was your doing personally, but I never could fathom why on earth consistent rules couldn't ever have been developed or maintained here. What's happening to the "vaults" content, like AC Vault? You guys have content on there that I contributed, and frankly, I didn't give rights to IGN to use it, and would rather see it deleted than the hugely remote possibility that they make money off of it.
Well Frax, I don't remember your case specifically but I know I would have had to approve it either by consent or silence. I took a quick look at your notes and you have some pretty colorful quotes there. Seems you were a different guy with some anger 8 years ago. If you want more details and promise to be mature about it (I am not being snarky either) you can PM the other Managers and ask them. I have no problems with them giving you the requested info. Just realize that things have changed and what you got banned for in 2004 probably hasn't been applicable the last 3 or 4 years. As for the second question, I have no idea about the content. Arch_Magi posted: Hey Mithan ... how about you go goose Teddy and see if you can secure a couple of VIP status passes for a week, and hold a contest on each of the boards that you are moving over (ACF, Outpost, etc). Maybe something like "Pick the date and time that the "plug will be pulled" for board x" and the person who is closest, gets VIP status for a week on the new place. Obviously you will have to make the cut off date and time something like Sunday at 6pm EST, so no one gets wind of it. Why not make death fun?
When I find out that status's do not copy over, I will give you all VIP for the last few days if I can. Tipztoe posted: ohh.. here's a good question. I got banned for a week or two once.. what was that for?
You have never had a 1 week ban. Chances are they were for 24 or 72 hour bans that you didn't get removed right away. Hawkson posted: What's the longest, non-perma ban that has been given out?

Re: your incredibly long post there - does that account for the differences between how the AC:Darktide board has been managed versus the rest of the boards (including the 'community' boards, ACF/Outpost/etc)? Even today, but going back at least five years I could open a few threads and see fuck, shit, hell, etc. Even today, four threads down, first post: http://vnboards.ign.com/darktide/b5152/116393018/p1/?55 There's been a huge discrepancy in how the differing boards have been treated.

From 2008 and on, we basically gave them a free ride. Reason explained in the above post. (Edit: Actually I still tried to lower the racism a bit after 2008 but gave up after two attempts). Before that, we TRIED to bring them to the same standard as everybody else (which were never aligned perfectly anyways). As I said, it was stupid and never worked. I knew better but still did it.

Yeah, and had I known those things were no longer applicable, I probably would've posted here sometimes in the last four years....but with the assinine threat of banning not only my account, but my wife's account as well if I EVER got another ban pretty much ensured that I was handed a death sentence as far as VN goes. Board's always been full of hypocrites...I will miss the memory of meeting people at parties, but I doubt I will have any long-lingering sadness over VN, unfortunately. My anger was because people were STUPID. They still are. You still can not bring up a valid complaint anywhere in a Turbine game owned forum about mechanics without 10 people flocking to your assistance, and 500 ignorant fools foisting themselves on their own petards just to get their heads up the dev's ass a bit further. I wish that back in the day, the mods would have banned the people that were actually starting arguments, not just the people starting a THREAD, or responding to the troll. Hindsight is 20/20 I guess, but frankly, it's not like anyone had a choice to use anything BUT VNBoards in the days before tradebots if you wanted to buy or sell gear. Once people got that you could go on VN, hanging out in a town to barter was dead. Tradebots and global just exterminated the boards. I'm looking forward to getting some money so I can try out the combat changes, but not to posting on IGN about it. Won't be posting on Turbine's board either. Maybe if this one carries over I might give it a look. Are you staying on "staff" with IGN at all?

Makes sense. For what it's worth, I've had plenty of problems with individual moderators but anytime I've actually dealt with you or any of your other assistant managers you've been very helpful/civil/etc. Thank you for everything you've done, Mithan.

I've always tried to be as honest as I can with people which is something even most of the guys who hated me for whatever reason, usually agreed with. I still to this day think I have never actually lied about something. With hold information, yes, lie? No. Be a dick at times? Ya, I have my moments. The Moderators usually tried to do the best they could with what they had. I wouldn't be too hard on them.

Board's always been full of hypocrites...I will miss the memory of meeting people at parties, but I doubt I will have any long-lingering sadness over VN, unfortunately. My anger was because people were STUPID. They still are. You still can not bring up a valid complaint anywhere in a Turbine game owned forum about mechanics without 10 people flocking to your assistance, and 500 ignorant fools foisting themselves on their own petards just to get their heads up the dev's ass a bit further. I wish that back in the day, the mods would have banned the people that were actually starting arguments, not just the people starting a THREAD, or responding to the troll. Hindsight is 20/20 I guess, but frankly, it's not like anyone had a choice to use anything BUT VNBoards in the days before tradebots if you wanted to buy or sell gear. Once people got that you could go on VN, hanging out in a town to barter was dead. Tradebots and global just exterminated the boards. I'm looking forward to getting some money so I can try out the combat changes, but not to posting on IGN about it. Won't be posting on Turbine's board either. Maybe if this one carries over I might give it a look. Are you staying on "staff" with IGN at all?
One of our directives was to cater to Developers. Period. VNBoards were big because of the trade posts, true. You had no option back then. As for the "hypocrites" argument, it seems to me you are too passionate. Take Diablo 3 and me for example. I am currently extremely excited for that game and when I see stupid comments from people on the boards, I want to flame them but I know there is no point. Why worry about it or get myself banned for it? I don't know what Teddy plans to do with me. I've offered to go Admin for a few weeks to help him transition, then I will probably be dumped to a Moderator. I've even considered hosting alternate VN Boards but if it wasn't for feeling like I was betraying Teddy, I would have done that already.

I was payed $50 a month from 2003 to 2004 or so. Then I think I got $150 until late 2007 or early 2008. I have been "volunteer" like the Mods for 4 years now. Incidentally, I did get 3 or 4 years of IGN Prime given to me but the account is broken. Figures.

so I read most of it up to page 6 and then I started skimming, so I might have missed this... Do I have it correct that whatever (if any) account on IGN will be our new account?...so I should probably put something in my signature or something for my name, or make a new one? I guess all the server boards will be merged into one or something? that kind of sucks.

I would assume the IGN account that already exists for you will be your "new" account when the change happens. That would make sense to me. What I don't know is if aspects of THIS account will be transfered. When I say that, I mean post count, admin notes, registration date, post history, etc. Obviously if some boards are moving, then some of your posts history will move, but does that mean your post count will transfer? Dont know.

Not trying to be a dick but let's say the end of ACF comes crashing all at once in our sleep without any warning, is it cool if we contact you directly for a link considering the lack of a network at that time?

I am assuming the vnboards.ign.com domain will redirect to boards.ign.com and there will be a VN Boards Catagory right there in your face to click on. But I dont know.
Not trying to be a dick but let's say the end of ACF comes crashing all at once in our sleep without any warning, is it cool if we contact you directly for a link considering the lack of a network at that time? I mean I would assume they would redirect as well for at least a time, but assuming they don't we've got to be able to hear it from someone first :\
I will provide you with the link now: http://www.ign.com/boards/ Awesome eh? When you go there after the boards merge, you will probably see a Vault Network Boards catagory.

the whole sunday school modding sounds about right. Im guessing thats why Kardon was allowed to mod as he did for so long? He had a huge chip on his shoulder and pretty much took it out on the small gay community that was here on the boards. Im guessing 99% of my mod notes are from him alone.

Interested in my notes given I was demoded for hearsay (OMG WE TOTALLY KNOW Mal logged in on me and banned people, when the people that were banned were done by me and very clearly deserved it ) since people complained when I was asked to strictly mod Guin and then did since they did not want it to be another ACF (don't know why).

He had a huge chip on his shoulder and pretty much took it out on the small gay community that was here on the boards. Im guessing 99% of my mod notes are from him alone.
Lol you are actually gay? I always thought you just wanted to troll my opinion on man to man sex. Sorry dude.

aon_mixed posted: i dont give a crap what mods put down about me, after i found out that i pulled a ban for posting images, i was like... yo mods b dum yo and not against the TOS images, just images and no other text associated with it
One time I got banned because I posted an image of a guy pointing a shotgun at a plastic Ronald McDonald over at FF. It was a joke to a user who got the joke and thought it was funny. I, however, got a ban for it. Not from Clint, either, who probably did the majority of my bans/edits.

My how the tables have turned now that someone no longer has their colors. When someone calls them out on a chat board and they demand satisfaction and it isn't immediately provided, because "I really, really don't care. I'm not angry or spiteful, I just really don't care. Blah, blah, blah, blah. I don't have time to deal with post counts and drama on a message board ... blah, blah, blah" they blow a head gasket and demand this and that. My how the tables have turned.

Well, if you pay the $25 a year, you get "IGN Prime" and that gives you colors, a title you can change at any time, a large avatar (that can even be animated, etc). Basically it is a paid for VIP status here. Dunno if they will transfer titles for non-paying customers there, but knowing IGN, I doubt it.

Notes we used to record what you said when being warned or banned. Guy. I've screwed with people over the years. There are some. Burried deep though.... I might do something on my own for the rest. I sold ac2hq for $3k. If I knew anything at the time, the 25 million page views a month would have made me a lot more. I wasn't in it for the money so I didn't really know....I just wanted the best game site on the net.

The point was that you made an accusation against me and you've got nothing at all to support it. It has nothing to do with colors or demands, those were YOUR words and have nothing at all to do with this. The burden of proof is on the accuser and surprise, the liar lied.

Has anyone asked something along these lines yet? Mithan, has your involvement with these boards generally been a plus, a break even or a minus for you? And you can use any facet you like as your criteria for answering that.

I don't remember or know. If you PM his account link, I will see if we have it on the notes. Not saying I will post it, but I might. That my decision to make. Lothland posted: Interested in my notes given I was demoded for hearsay (OMG WE TOTALLY KNOW Mal logged in on me and banned people, when the people that were banned were done by me and very clearly deserved it ) since people complained when I was asked to strictly mod Guin and then did since they did not want it to be another ACF (don't know why).
I don't remember you being fired. What I can say is this: Any moderator we ever fired, we had a lot of reasoning as to why and not all those reasons were ever told to the Moderator. I personally hated firing people from a volunteer job. It sucked and caused me the most anxiety out of anything here so we always did other things to get around it. As for you specifically, based on what you said, I am assuming we fired you for access issues? There were some "questionable" Moderators that we suspected of leaking notes or giving their accesses out to others intentionally or unintentionally. Over time, we would hear of this or set up traps to monitor the Moderator and his account in question. At that point, if we had strong suspicions, we fired you and moved on. I am sure we got some innocent people in the process but this is a game forum, not Real Life, so it was an acceptable loss in my mind and usually, I would tell them that while we have no proof, we can't take the risk and keep them on and we are sorry. Anyways, if you were fired for something like this, I am not sorry abut it. All I would be sorry for is you getting into that situation in the first place. Either way, I was not going to take that risk. I hope you understand my reasoning. MForce was legitimately hacked though, since I know this will come up. I have no doubt about that in my mind.

I figured that would be the response, it wasn't anyone accessing my account it was the forum trolls that hated Mal so much and we were living together (obviously married now) so they constantly said she was on my account (she never knew my password). Not like I care I was just wondering if there was notes about it since I know it was BS but you guys do what you do and it was years in the past. It was not like Mforce (compromised) or the other mods that leaked notes or had people with different IP's that had hacked accounts just posters knowing RL information and saying Mal was getting on my account and banning them (which would have been easy to track and didn't happen) and lying to Desi

Ardenwolfe posted: Let's break the 'how many do I have' trend. What do you feel is the worst mistake or misstep you ever made with the VN Boards, Mithan? In other words, what one thing would you do differently now that hindsight is 20/20?
Here are three answers: With what I KNOW today, and without giving the "I wouldn't take the job" answer, which could be entirely true, I think what I would do today different is fire all the moderators and managers when I started, delete all the processes, change the culture and start over on vBulletin. Obviously, I would of rehired a lot of the people I fired, but under my own terms and conditions. If I went back and DIDNT know what I know now? I honestly wouldn't do too much differently. As I said, the mistakes I/we made were based on the assumptions and reasoning we made at the time. This was done in our spare time and we were all learning what was basically a new field at the time. Biggest Mistakes based on what I know NOW? Three big mistakes. My biggest mistake was this: We (for various reasons, some good and some bad) wanted you all to comply with the board rules as they were initially written, on every board (else why have them in the first place). This is fine in theory but not so fine in Practice. It is not right for me to go into established communities and say "We are making rule changes. You now have to change what was perfectly acceptable behavior in the past, to comply with the new rules or just ENFORCEMENT of OLD rules or you get booted". In the old days, we all picked and choose our rules for our own boards, based on the Community. Moderators that wanted to enter long established communities and "change them" always failed. This was a known fact to me because that is what I did on TD and most people there liked me and had no issues with me. On my AC2HQ forums, which I grew to about 5000 posts a day from nothing, the same thing was in place. When I took over, I had been given some prerogatives and was required to CHANGE THINGS. Plus as I have said before, I had competing cultures and such here, which is why I said I would fire everybody if I had to redo it. I knew this wasn't going to work, but did what I was told to do. A lot of good moderators "died" over this unfortunately and a lot of the hate you guys have for some "bad" moderators comes from this. Reality slowly crept in by 2005 and that is when we started to ease things and allow the board rules to conform to the communities more and that was the RIGHT decision. It happened slowly at first and then quicker later on. Second biggest mistake was actually changing rules based on tiny vocal minorities of people complaining: I always hated doing this but my stubbornness eventually ended this. It did a LOT of damage to the boards though, including board purges, retarded rules, etc, etc. Third biggest mistake was not moving us to vBulletin when IGN gave me the chance: I was worried Zerosleep would loose his job.

-Mithan- posted: I have told Moderators we are shifting strategy overall because it causes traffic but that is a different question you would need to ask and it isn't specific to Arch, it is specific to ACF's overall moderator strategy of the last 4 or 5 years. He just fell within it, as several others did that would have been permabanned back in the day and I do not regret the decision.
What is ACF's Moderator Strategy (Really? There's a Strategy?)... and why did it change?
Here is some of the deal, in brief and leaving out a lot of detail: (I modded TD from June 2001 to 2003, then I became Admin in summer of 2003, I had AC2HQ for a few years there as well) Back in the early days, the VN Boards were all run as separate communities. Moderators had very loose rules on what to do on their boards but ran things as they saw fit. This was not consistent across boards obviously and caused issues, but things could be "tuned" to the Community itself. There were pro's and con's to this approach. In 2002, people in charge decided to start responding to calls of inconsistency, by trying to make all the rules AND how Moderators did things the same across all boards. This was good and bad. Making Moderators consistant is a good thing, forcing all the boards on a forum as varied as Vault Network, was stupid. That being said, the people in charge at that time had nothing to go on so it isn't like they knew any better. This is also just after IGN purchased us and started changing rules. I still remember the day Tal from IGN dropped into the Global Mod Forum and told us "no profanity is allowed anymore". I remember it because it was a stupid decision done in response to Chylama and others sending in complaints about "profanity" directly to IGN and it should have been done via Profanity Filter. There were other decisions dropped like that, some good and some bad. Again, Tal didn't know the repurcusions of his actions at the time or how many thousands of people would be banned as a result. When I took over in 2003, the push to "normalize" all the Forums was in place and my directives were pretty clear, so I continued with it and didn't mind it. What I did not like though was the "Sunday Schoolification" of the VN Boards that was happening as a direct response to a minority of people complaining and a specific Manager who prefered this style of Board. I was an "old school" Mod who swore like a sailor until that was removed, so I didn't care for the baby everybody approach but I did it and followed my orders. Were the people complaining about the boards and this Manager wrong? In my view, yes. The community is full of teenagers and young adults so expecting them to act like they are in a Sunday School (no swearing, be nice to each other, etc, etc) was wrong. Changing the boards to cater to these "complainers" who expected a Sunday School atmosphere was a f***ing travesty. Anyways, I was initially instructed to continue with the "Sunday Schoolification of the VN Boards", though not in those words but coming in after a Mod Riot and a time when a lot of "Sunday School" mods were hired and directly butted heads with us older school mods, I strove for peace initially, which meant Status Quo, which meant board purges and strict rules and other things. For a while. The above "strictness" is why you guys got the book slammed at you so often. ACF was considered a s*** hole at the time by most of us, people frequently complained about how ACF was out of control, etc, etc. This happened to other boards too and we stupidly, fell in line and tried to purge it. I used to post on ACF back in the early 200's but stayed off after I was the Admin. We had a lot of pressure and directives to "do something about it" but I had the power to say no, and didn't. That was a failing on my part but I didnt know better at the time. We did a number of "losening" changes to the rules from 2004 to 2007 and slowly over time the Sunday Schoolers mostly quit but the culture was still there. We also made a LOT of changes to how we moderated, some good and some bad. In 2007 though, some things became obvious to me: The boards were in decline, VN was no longer relevant as a network and had a limited lifespan of 2-4 years before it was done (I was off by a year it seems), we were strangling the posters we had left with overly tight rules, no new people were coming because the sites were not good, etc, etc. Basically, we are too corporate. We can not compete with a start up site like MMO Champion or WoWHead or whatever new site will develop that has all the latest awesome developments in Web Tech going for it for upcoming games like Guild Wars 2 and other games. Why come to our boards when you can go to a Developer Board and have your opinion read? We tried opening new boards, they failed. In 2008, I decided to shift focus and focus on what was left to us to focus, which was the "strangling of the posters via the rules". I reasoned that most of you were only here because of habit and "friends" and didn't care about games anymore and just wanted to shoot the s*** about whatever. Tight Rules don't allow that. I "discussed" changing rules with our entire team and I got too much push back and argument from various corners because what I wanted to do was directly in conflict with the Mod Culutre we had built over the last 8 years. The mod culture of "Sunday School" was strong even though we had an amazing team of Managers and Mods at this point but I think people were just scared. What did I WANT to do? I wanted to tear everything down and start over but that wasn't going to happen. So what DID I do? I told Teddy I was going to launch a campaign to loosen up the board rules. He was on board. I made some changes to the board rules and instructed the Moderators to "loosen up" all over the boards. This is probably where you got the idea that I was saying ARCH could specifically troll all he wanted. He couldn't, at least no more or less than the rest of you guys trolling. Then I did what no sane administrator should do and in the summer of 2008, I jumped into the boards and started tearing out the walls we had created. It was my own Shock and Awe. I think MForce and Foxy freaked out and probably hated me for a bit, but they eventually got over it. At least I hope, because I did a bad thing to them and am sorry for that. The rest of the Moderators probably figured I was crazy. Either way, the walls came down on ALL the boards and Moderators had no choice but to loosen up because that is what their crazy administrator who was mysteriously not being fired, had just done to them, whether they liked it or not. What was the purpose of this? As I said, the writting was on the wall. The VN Sites could not compete with the other sites out there and the VN Boards had no relevance in an age of Developer Boards. I figured I might as well give you guys your freedom back and wait until we closed the doors and merged with IGN, which I actually expected to happen in 2010 or 2011. I reasoned it would stem the bleeding, and it did. Since 2008, you have pretty much had the same freedoms you had in 2001. You guys are no longer banned for profanity, can spam threads a lot more, you do your stupid "for fun" copy cast threads, you can troll and argue amongst yourselves, etc. I don't care if it was right or wrong because at the end of the day, if I had to do the VN Boards over again knowing what I know now, I would have never have taken the job and would have started my own system and retired by now
ah, it was a good ride. I think my oldest mod note says something like: this one bears watching - Legion of Light. I always loved that one.

Either way, the walls came down on ALL the boards and Moderators had no choice but to loosen up because that is what their crazy administrator who was mysteriously not being fired, had just done to them, whether they liked it or not. What was the purpose of this? As I said, the writting was on the wall. The VN Sites could not compete with the other sites out there and the VN Boards had no relevance in an age of Developer Boards. I figured I might as well give you guys your freedom back and wait until we closed the doors and merged with IGN, which I actually expected to happen in 2010 or 2011. I reasoned it would stem the bleeding, and it did. Since 2008, you have pretty much had the same freedoms you had in 2001. You guys are no longer banned for profanity, can spam threads a lot more, you do your stupid "for fun" copy cast threads, you can troll and argue amongst yourselves, etc. I don't care if it was right or wrong because at the end of the day, if I had to do the VN Boards over again knowing what I know now, I would have never have taken the job and would have started my own system and retired by now
ah, it was a good ride. I think my oldest mod note says something like: this one bears watching - Legion of Light. I always loved that one. [/quote] Fantastic Post, Mithan. Thanks for loosening things up behind the scenes. I very much remember when the crackdown occurred, and things have been mysteriously lax the last few years, much to our enjoyment on the DT boards. I'm glad you recognized this "corporate culture" is nothing but bullshit. Hopefully you can transfer that wisdom to the new boards and instill it in future mods.

Ok, i guess i do have a question. why were we (the mods) not allowed to tell anybody (ie the posters) when you decided to loosen the rules? It seemed to me at the time it would have been easier and more up front to just tell everybody what the new rules were.

Arch_Magi posted: How many gigs (or teras) bytes of data will be freed up when vnboards is shut down and the drives eventually reformatted/erased/destroyed?
No idea. It may be left in archive and read only format, deleted or copied to the IGN boards. Aerlinthian posted: Has anyone asked something along these lines yet? Mithan, has your involvement with these boards generally been a plus, a break even or a minus for you? And you can use any facet you like as your criteria for answering that.
The boards, my AQ2HQ site and eventually the admin job ate up a big portion of my free time in 2001-2005. That is a big regret because I could of been doing other things at the time and the main reason I am not sure I would ever do this again if I could go back to 2001 and "do it over again" on this scale. However on the flip side, it did lead to a couple gigs with Epic Games and VE3D that payed very well for a spare hobby. I also learned a lot about a lot of things in general and met some great people. So while I regret the time invested, I think I got enough out of it in the end to make it worthwhile. Then again, maybe not. I dont want to dwell on it too much. Hindsite is 2020.

In short, it isn't in the notes and his IP didn't correspond to somebody else. For all we know, somebody clicked on a bookmark in his PC wondering what Vault Network was, came here and his cache logged him in.

Gandalf_of_the_Shire posted: Mithan: What if the notes didn't have names attached? I'm curious to see my notes out of a guilty pleasure of seeing what I've done over the years. Why are you against it?
Here is the reason I don't allow Admin Notes to go out: It gives you guys something to discuss, which then puts focus where it never should be (moderation) and causes old hatreds to pop up, arguments, pissing matches, etc, etc. Basically, it disturbs the flow of the boards and results in a bunch of crap, which then escalates into bannings and more hard feelings and this all has to be cleaned up by some poor Moderator who is being ridiculed for it, because everything is now being over analyzed. That is it. That is the only reason we don't give mod notes out. I don't want Mods put in the position of dealing with this crap. Done. Managers have always been able to do it if they want and they have. The rule doesn't apply to them. This is the same reason we don't allow Moderator Discussion on the boards. It stirs shi* up and some of you guys LOVE to stir crap up because you get off on it. Unfortunately, the guys and gals who deal with it are real people. Is there anything in there damning? No, aside from the odd mod remark, they are pretty much straight cut and pastes of what YOU said when you were warned or banned. If people didn't act like two year olds about it, we never would of made this rule, but that was never the case. As for giving out the notes, I can do that if I want but its a lot of work though and because of that, I wouldn't be doing it myself (sorry). Beib, Acery or Grim may not mind doing it. THe other part still applies though, which is the part about it stirring crap up on the boards so it would really depend WHO it was. I don't need you guys copying it to ACF4, bitching about it then bringing the discussion here.

9 pages. Were you a mod Ferdinand? I don't remember that.... If you were, yes I would of easily fired you for implying you were leaking out Admin Notes. I am against that for the reason I said above in the other threads, plus if you leak Admin Notes, then you would also have no issues leaking private info from our internal boards. IF that is why I fired you, then I still agree with the initial decision. -Dyslexia- posted: Ok, i guess i do have a question. why were we (the mods) not allowed to tell anybody (ie the posters) when you decided to loosen the rules? It seemed to me at the time it would have been easier and more up front to just tell everybody what the new rules were.
The same reason I told you back then on those threads: A perfect example is the Profanity Rule change. When we dropped the Profanity Banning, I told you guys to shut up about it. This was done because if I had said "we are no longer banning you for profanity, but don't swear please", the posters would quickly just fill the boards up with profanity because the flood gates would be open, which would mean we would have to go back to banning for profanity to get them stop and that would cause a lot of problems. By telling you to shut up about it and leaving it in the rules, the posters perceived it was against the rules and they tried to clean up their language on their own so they wouldn't get banned. When people screwed up, we edited the word and moved on. The poster would see the edit and count themselves "lucky" and try not to use it in the future. Over time, people clued into the fact that profanity was not getting them banned, but they didn't abuse that notion. They got away with the odd profanity and we got realtivly "safe for work" boards out of the deal. It was just manipulation on my part, but it worked and was best for everybody. You always knew I hated the profanity rule. It was the single dumbest thing IGN ever did to us and Teddy allowed me to partly dump it, provided it didn't get abused by the posters. This was the only way to accomplish that and I have no regrets. The other easings were mostly done the same way but only if I felt it was something to be abused. We announced the Spam Thread changes directly because you were told to only allow them on dedicated Spam Threads for example, so who cares. Other things like "ease up on personal attacks" was sort of hard to imply. I wanted people to be able to scrap a bit like you guys allowed back in the day, I just didn't want them going full Jerk against one another. We could of done better with this one though. Oh well.

I disagree with this entirely. 100% philosophically against this. My proof? Check the Darktide boards. We've known that cussing isn't bannable for years now. In fact, they had been more lenient with us because of the sheer pushback we'd given over the years. Do you see us cussing all the time? Go count the threads with cuss words in their titles. One. Two maybe? In ten pages? Now count the actual cuss words among the threads. Not many. Why? Because people don't just cuss to get a reaction. We did that when we were eight years old, and only because we were told we weren't allowed to cuss. Would you get a shitstorm out of the gates? Yes, of course. You'd have people cussing just to cuss, just to flip the bird to you and the people who didn't allow them to cuss ever. For a while. Then it would go away, and turn into what our Darktide boards are today. We're the rowdiest bunch on VN, and we're very tame. Most of us are grown adults now. You're wrong about keep that under wraps.

Nope, disagree 100% and the history here of the action and reaction proved that right. If I could go back to 2008, I would do it all exactly the same UNLESS IGN dropped the Profanity Rule entirely, which is what I wanted. Re-read what I said above about having to balance this out in order to be able to do what I did. Dark Tide was a total different scenario. We've "ignored" DT forever except for some clean up campaigns which I have said were stupid. When AA was on that board, all I told him to do was delete profanity and porn and that is all he did. The other guy who worked there last year (Asheron?) had the same directive actually. I could dig up the PM but it would take too long. IGN had written off the Darktide Boards actually, but they didn't want the rest of VN filled with profanity. You say you guys "swear a bit", which is the problem. DT is a hidden away community with about 5% of the remaining posters on it. "Swearing a bit" on Darktide does not scale well to "swearing a bit" on the rest of the boards. It becomes "swearing a lot". Being transparent about it on ACF, Outpost and the rest of the boards in general would have resulted in a lot of profanity use and then IGN would have told me "nope" and then the rule would have come back down. IF I had been transparent about it, and I was wrong, it could of been a big disaster. The way I did it, nobody got hurt, but yes, it DID leave people wondering WTF but that was something I was willing to accept. Lets put it this way, I don't regret my decision. It worked perfectly fine and the end result of allowing you guys to swear without being banned AND keeping the boards clean was met. If I had to do it again with TODAY'S board situation, I would tell you all straight out because you are all used to it and I think would respect it. Back in 2008? No way.

First, thanks Mithan and the rest of cool mods who did their job. I used to troll the sh** out of the DAOC boards back in 2001-2004 when I played. I have two simple questions: 1) How many mod notes do I have? (the million dollar question everyone is asking, I know ) 2) Why did Dunes step down? If it's too personal I understand.

I occasionally enjoyed going down memory lane and reading some of my Old PMs. Brought back memories of a time in my life where my biggest worry was paying my villa rent on time. I'm guessing there would be no easy way to save PMs?

4, which is a surprise. I generally had respect for the fact you rarely ever were a dick to people.
I seem to remember going a few rounds with a mod (or mods) for something (inconsistency of rules, etc.) before realizing what a waste of time/energy it was. Typing time was much better spent here being goofy, trolling and only arguing with folks worthy of the exchange. Rho

I think my mod notes are mostly in regards to my ex who used to get banned and I did too since we shared an IP. Plus there was some drama there.

I got Banned once for drunk posting censored naughtiness, a few accidental bad words were edited. lol didn't realize I did enough for 1/2 a page worth of notes let alone 3.

2) Why did Dunes step down? If it's too personal I understand.
Stepped down before Christmas and then came back in feb. I was out of province December with family commitments, in January I had a trip to Mexico, listed my home for sale, and helped my brother move out. Beginning of feb was a business trip and when I came back I was ready to go again. Needed a bit of a break. I probably could have just stayed on and no one would have cared I was inactive,but that's not my style. In or out. I also was bored of modding dead boards and was eyeballing acf, but I wasn't sure foxy wanted help and I didn't want to take mforce's spot while he was deciding if he was coming back. End of the day it helped clear my head, I realized I wanted to keep modding, acf still had an opening, foxy/mforce we're on board, managers gave me the nod, and here i am.

I don't remember or know. If you PM his account link, I will see if we have it on the notes. Not saying I will post it, but I might. That my decision to make.
Not sure on his account linke, looks like its not set up for IGN, Here's his board history link tho http://vnboards.ign.com/UserPages/PostHistory.aspx?usr=56686
Date Account Added: 11/29/2000 10:58:15 AM Last Login Date: 3/1/2010 3:40:25 AM Last Post Date: 5/23/2009 6:48:46 PM I also have his final IP, which doesn't correspond to anybody else active since then. In short, it isn't in the notes and his IP didn't correspond to somebody else. For all we know, somebody clicked on a bookmark in his PC wondering what Vault Network was, came here and his cache logged him in. [/quote] SO, youre saying hes still alive, I KNEW IT!

Well it seemed like a good idea before.... I have had emails flying telling them to delay it. I didnt threaten to make my own forums yet, since I dont know if people would use them.

If you mean within VN, yes. Your profile is global. If you mean from VN to IGN then no. An IGN mod cannot see your VN notes and same goes for the other way. Dadoleon posted: If so how many do I have?

Towards the end we were going to make the board a Manager Board only + foxy but Dune's return gave us the opportunity to plug in someone we knew was level headed, laid back and posted here often so we went with that. Mith can elaborate more but we always tried to pull from the community.

aon_mixed posted: yeah, why was the application form for moderator so obtuse?
I was modded in 2005 so I'm not going to talk about things prior that I can only assume. BUT When I was first moderated, there had to be 100 mods. Back then, there was a definite feel of hierarchy between Administration, Managers and mods. It seemed to be ran like a true business with corporate structure because of the sheer number of mods. The app, in my opinion, caused a polarization type effect. Those who were not serious would either stop because of the length of the app or would be flushed because their answers were so transparent. To me, it gave leadership a means to filter people out because one can stay in touch with a small community and make decisions to mod someone based on a personal bias whereas the boards grew so much, that was no longer possible and there had to be a 'test' for those considering the position.

i think the thing that got under my collar the most about the moderation back way back then was the mods who who would just be browsing ACF and were not all that 'hip' to the ACF culture and perform a drive-by edit/lock/ban with nary a warning or FYI, the only way you found out WTF happened was via MSN or YIM if you had a mod friend who could look it up and tell ya -OR- via the UBR when said stealth mod would get around to unbanning ya

Some were justified, some were not. I don't want to offend other moderators but lets just leave it at that ACF had a hands off policy for the most part but we expected major violations to be and could be handled by any moderator.

more to the point, im grousing about the lack of tranparency with respect to trangressions: stealth bans were an all or nothing affair without feedback (for the most part) until the UBR was fully processed.

generally speaking, stealth bans were for the most part reserved for autoban offenses that were done by mods who post on acf or were brought to a reply by a pm because a local was not on. getting back to my prior comment with hands off, non local mods were told to leave no trace to cut down on pissing off the community in the case of an emergency action.
After a ban, the ubr queue was our only line of communication with the user while they were banned.
the banning mod would have to then let the local mods know what was up so everyone was in the loop. it was up to the user to get back to a local if they had a question. that seems stand-off-ish but it is how we did things. I had no problem going over something with a user who had an issue or question.

If you mean within VN, yes. Your profile is global. If you mean from VN to IGN then no. An IGN mod cannot see your VN notes and same goes for the other way. Dadoleon posted: If so how many do I have?
I cant see your IGN admin profile. Dadoleon posted: I am sure murron has written me up a few times from MT

Can you confirm that one of my first mod notes was actually about how good an idea it would be to make me a mod?

I wonder if mine were as well. They (at least) were copied to my mod notes so /someone/ had to have at least copy/pasted them.

Oh, so will all our posts be archived somewhere or will they essentially vanish into the ether? I ask because if anyone plans on a career in politics in the future, it's probably best for all our VN records to go away...

So, Mithan, how many chicks from vnboards did you bang? Specifically, some of the Moderators/Staff members. The rumors on the hidden board placed the number at somewhere around 3 women who traded sex for "status". Any truth to the rumors?

If you mean within VN, yes. Your profile is global. If you mean from VN to IGN then no. An IGN mod cannot see your VN notes and same goes for the other way. Dadoleon posted: If so how many do I have?
I cant see your IGN admin profile. Dadoleon posted: I am sure murron has written me up a few times from MT
I'll leave that up to her
LOL... Truly! ~Murron~
