Rearrange my name smarty. =)

Anyway, I'm praying that Acmlm does the right thing here and hooks back the life support tube into this board. He knows what to do, but will he? Only time will tell.

Do the right thing Ace. Bring this dead board back to liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiife. (power metal 4 teh knuckster)

Well if you really think that's the problem here Yiffy Kitten, and Acmlm, then here's a simple solution.

Acmlm, demote everyone you want, and promote who you want. Who can stop you? This is your board afterall. You're the dictator, and if things aren't going the way you'd like right now, try doing something about it.

I'm not pointing fingers here, but truthfully this seems almost a little silly ... because a simple solution is at the tip of our finger tips.

It's still disturbing what you said, Legion. O.o'' I call sexual harassment.

You are joking, right?

I seriously don't need any more reasons to make fun of you.

So please, just say you were joking. Even if you lie. =D

You need both a sarcasm filter and a brain.

A life would be handy too. You're becoming a walking example of irony.

I am not averse to constructive discussion about the board, but bickering doesn't help. If you want to discuss, that's OK...if the back-and-forth bickering continues, I'm closing this.

yes. the constant obesession with thread closing is really bothersome. in my opinion it's more detrimental to the overall cause of the board to keep discussions opens. you can't expect legitimate change if people can't post.

To use an analogy I first brought up in the staff area, "He's the king, if you will, and thus has the final say. But is it really good idea to consult a king who has no particular interest in ruling his kingdom?"
-In short, either Ace needs to make his presence more felt (And show that it's his board in something besides name now), OR we need some new blood to come in and effectively "lead" the board, because Ace seems to be little more than a figurehead now.

You are basically saying that Ace should leave his own board.
Wow I didn't think you people would go this far.


no, i think you misunderstand that his stance was not to dictate who should run the board. his point is that whatever acmlm choices, it should be decisive

because as he mentioned, if acmlm isn't as involved in the board and goes to make a decision (with the intent of making the best decision he can, i'm sure) he just won't be able to make a good one. i mean it would be like that for anybody. it's to make judgement towards things you don't know about.

so recap: nobody is telling anybody what action to take, only that it be clear, concise, and decisive. it's the only way things will actually work smoothly and get done.

Exactly. My point was never "Acmlm should leave," even though I know it sounded like that. It was more "For all we know, Acmlm may WANT to leave, and if that's the case, we shouldn't force him to stay just because his name is at the top of the board".

Fortunately, it seems he does still care, so it's all a moot point anyway.

Hey, I told him in a PM that I was sorry about what I said to him in the other thread he made.

And my opinion about you is neutral, Yiffy Kitten.

Yeah, it would be cool if they come back. I wish the board was like the good ol days in 2001-2002 again. Other cool people like Erkdog, Jizuko, and Valcion should also come back to staff.

And WB Legion, I knew you would come back, you always do. lol

sup knuck, yd

There's not a lot we can do to bring them back. If they come back it's thoroughly their choice, and I think they've tired of the board altogether, not just those in charge. It would be nice though.

The staff reshuffle is intended to put a solid leadership in place so that the staff can run the board smoothly again. It won't change the things that made all the oldbies leave, because ultimately you can't change those things about a board.
