Agreed, but I don't see him leaving for a long ass time.

Aye. We must be patient if we're ever to return.

Aye. We must be patient if we're ever to return. You guys realize he's had an account for a decade now, right? |

You might notice I listed "dying of natural causes", I've also heard of him taking long hiatuses.

I don't know, he just recently became active again. But him leaving doesn't change shit, the other mods will still enforce the same rules.

True but now that I looked at the forum games, I'm fine with that.

Yep. Read the thread if you haven't already if you plan on bashing the campaign. To be honest, I also sort of wanted to just test the atmosphere on the site and just how feared the mods were before leaving.

Hey Mardox, which admin did you PM and get ignored by? That sounds like a ridiculous thing that didn't at all happen. I've had productive conversations with numerous users about the new guidelines.
Anyway, have fun with your personal grudge against me. I hope it's long and fulfilling and brings you lots of fulfillment in life. Sounds healthy. Meanwhile, I'll go back to trying to make CYS a more productive and interesting place to be.

It's hard for anyone to understand something they haven't experienced. Most of the mods don't RP, aren't newbies who don't know how to create good storygames, and the new guidelines don't effect them. You can't really blame the CYS mods. JJJ has made absolutely amazing forum games...and then kinda abandons them a couple months later...but still, he does do that kind of thing. And then I'm pretty sure he was one of the worst newbie's ever (probably bad enough to rival most of the WC fans), with his 21 games on his first day (and omg, that grammar and spelling on his posts 8+ years ago. XD).
Rather recently, Seth said that he had about 7 tabs open at once to make sure he's notified if someone replies to rps he's in. So I definitely know he does rps.
I think I heard a rumor somewhere about BerkaZerka being the creator of BHB - an entire site for roleplay - though I'm not sure how reliable that info is.
Anyway, my point is, is that at least half the mods/admins do roleplay, and they have played Freeform, and know what it's like. But, they just don't roleplay on cys - they mostly go to sites created for that purpose. As for the newbie thing, everyone was a newbie at sometime. JJJ obviously a bit worse than most, but I'm pretty sure that means he also remembers that time better than the other mods/admins, and does know what it's like to make shitty games etc.
As I've said before - it's like Spring Cleaning. Everyone hates doing it, except maybe a few of the more mature/older people. Those more mature/older people organize everyone else so it can just get done and over with. Of course, with Spring cleaning, things are going to get messier before it gets better. But, once it's done, everyone benefits from it, with a nice clean house.
BZ did create BHB and is the primary admin. That information is absolutely true/valid. He actually created an entire roleplay system called Bounty Head Bebop. You can literally buy the rulebooks online. People saying that we don't roleplay are hysterically funny. The amount if misinformation out there is wild. We made this decision for the betterment of CYS and we're standing by it, because we believe it's the right decision. I don't even get the anger, at all, since there are SO many places to freeform roleplay. This very site, for instance! |
