There seems to be some members who are here to stir up trouble, yet them provide nothing to the board except that! I am not naming any names. I don't seem the point, that's all. Also, we have several members who do nothing but moan, yet they log on time and time again, I don't get it. Totally agree! People on this board, not naming any names (thinking them though lol), do complain loads, and they start fights. It's the one thing that I dislike about Bttb. I know quite a few people from different sites don't come on here, because of it. Which is a shame. I know everyone can get a little grouchy sometimes, but there's no need for people to team up and gang up on a member! I remember once when someone posted on the Australian Discussion board, asking for the spoilers to be put up. Yes, it was impatient of them, but they didn't know it wasn't allowed. This thread went on for pages before I saw it, where the same people kept posting and agreeing with other members, and were going on about "people who ask for spoilers should be suspended..." and such. I was so angry reading it, because this person had apologized as soon as they realised they were in the wrong, what more could they do? It really got on my nerves, and when a couple of members, including myself, posted, only one or two members apologized. It really annoyed me because others had obviously been checking up on the board, and writing in posts, having a go at this one person, and then they wouldn't admit they were wrong. They just said nothing. I know, everyones guilty of getting angry once in a while, and saying something in the spur of the moment. I know I have. I've done it to you I think Mercury Girl, on the 4100 thread? I read it wrong, assuming that you were having a go at me, and just got angry. And when I realised you weren't, I apologized, because I was in the wrong!! I just wish people would do that too! OH and theres some people, who try and be really clever and funny, by making comments. Not friendly, jokey comments, sarcastic comments. And that gets on my nerves also, because I hate to say this, but it does generally seem to be the more popular, well known members who do. (I'm not saying it always happens, just in my experience it has) And no one dares speaks back, because they know they're not going to win against the person and their army of fans. lol Ticks me off... As you can tell! Well this is a moan thread, so I've just done what is required in my post, moan. lol Moan over.
MarMar Posted May 14, 2006 Report Posted May 14, 2006 Long post *comes up for air* Yeah, I think we both misuderstood eachother in that thread, and I appologise for that. I have bad days, where I might be too strict, too demanding, and a big pain is the a**. I'll try my best to be better, and I hope others can too, so that this board can be even better than it already is!

That was only because I didn't know you and never talked to you. But as time went on, I realised that you aren't mean or strict, you are a very nice and pleasant person, same with all the other mods. People complain about Mods being enemies, but all of you are just helping and volunteering to do provide us with a cool board.
MarMar Posted May 14, 2006 Report Posted May 14, 2006 Yeah, I think I might be a little intimidating for new members.. I try not to be, and I try to be friendly when I write PMs with links to the rules. Maybe I am not friendly enough. I'll try to get better.

But, I think it was ever since discussing the Proof Reading thread, that I realised you were very nice and friendly.

MarMar Posted May 14, 2006 Report Posted May 14, 2006 If so many people though I was scary, I just have to work even more to fix that impression! That proof-reading idea is great!

That proof-reading idea is great! Mer you and the other mods have a hard job, don't take it personally. I know that it is easy for me to say, as i am not in your boots. But there are loads of people on this board, and off. That all they want to do is cause problems for others. They moan their way through life, blaming others for their own misery. People don't hate you, or the other mods. So stop it, as i feel that you are getting the raw end of the deal at the moment, and there is no reason for it.
Marieh Posted May 14, 2006 Report Posted May 14, 2006 Mercury_Girl said: I'm sorry, Marieh.. I am the worst mod ever.. *sobs* Thanks The good thing is that is going down to Dokka to help my sister and her Boyfriend to build out so it will be some room for them and the baby.. I was never scared of Merc, but that was just because I knew here before she became a mod here:p (Well, I didn't know her, know her ) And becides, I'm not really scared of people over the net, I've had my fair of online fighting (no one here ;)) Just have to quote something "This is a talk board with words appearing on a computer screen. It is not real life." - Mod1 I laughed so bad that night at 5 am
MarMar Posted May 14, 2006 Report Posted May 14, 2006 I know it's silly to take all comments on, but I do...
