I don't know crunch. And Hekko barely said anything about the US admins. But yes, they should have a thicker skin. -My- experience of US admining has been bad, so i can sympathise with the oposition on this one, that not to say all US admins are cunts, merely that it's not been to a high standard, and is more people playing the game and banning people when they want, than doing a good job of keeping the server integrity and good moderation. I see racism and slurs which admins ignore 2/3 times i am on that server, to the point that i just take it as part of the attitude over there(although again, this isn't directed at any of the candidates in question).

There was no conspiracy to slander people's individual reputation, but to bring to bare many things that people have noticed. I will go out on a limb and say that Hekko has done more for NW since launch than anyone, including the Devs. The Devs coded sure, but every improvement has been due to Hekko'#s relenntless atiitude, every INTERESTING piece of gameplay has been due to Hekko's organisation. He should be on the bloody payroll, if it wasn't for him many more players would have left.(This isn't a serious demand, just an illustartion of his importance)

I don't think i said a bad word about FSE till NW came out. In fact i was a staunch supporter of the "Pay for the DLC, the Devs of this mod deserve it". It was pointed out in another thread that people may be letting past grievances interupt other issues. But the fact that these past grievances have either not been resolved or not resolved in a satisfactory or competant manner is a big deal to me.


He still mentioned it and if you look back there is like a page or 2 of abuse at Crunch just because he stood up to it as what it was, accusations that had no weight behind them. I share your experience with the US server..maybe 5-6months ago. It is changing and trust me, on that server its not an easy task. People did get anyway with everything. However is that relevant now? Do you say the same now? And the same for EU official admins? Since you are the only one debating, I am trying to see what the issue is, so we can actually fix it instead of this random SORT YO SHIT OUT FSE!! posts.

I don't believe Hekko to be a bad person but whether he wanted it or not, he insult and challenged the reputation of people who have worked tireless on the game and community. To be fair, ingame official servers, name the issue? The forum...name specific issues which make you angry. What do you want?

You don't have to be an admin or an ex-admin to suck up...

After having had a very long conversation with Donald I will have to admit to being slightly wrong in my representation of him and his behaviour. Apperantly he was a global moderator because he set the forum up, not because he was an actual moderator, which of course changes some of the stuff that I said about him. My opinion fundamentally hasn't changed though, just some of the examples used, also it means that Donald is a unfairly singled out since he isn't a senior staff member as I thought he was.

This goes to show a part of the problem though, how the secrecy and lack of information creates problems where there need not be problems.

Once again, I am sorry Donald for misrepresenting some of your actions.

My only regret is that I wasn't mentioned in the OP. Either I'm not important enough, or I'm just rather boring.

Good Luck to the candidates. I'll be using my vote.

If a cat sits in a box in the woods and no-one is around to hear it, is it alive?

Apologies, it was the only french kitten I could find. If you can find another, I'll happily replace my current feline companion.

I hadn't really seen you misusing your administrative powers ever, I mean, slap a ban on someone random in the thread and I'll be more than happy to edit you into the OP.

Ah. Boredom. One of the world's most intriguing, and at times, destructive, enigma in the world.
