The critique of the admining is fine, but if you host or admin a private server, and you run/admin it like a personal whorehouse, are we supposed to take you seriously if you comment in support of Hekko's post? I don't think so. I check the 84e logs for abuse every fourth of fifth day, and I talk with every admin who get too emotional. Point is, I get sick of some of you commenting who I know would do a lot worse.

Just because we say things are done badly, doesn't mean we say we could do better. We say, things SHOULD be done better.

You might have missed my point. I simply don't want to associate with douchebags, and even if I agree with most of Hekko's points, I might not agree with his main thesis that the community actually deserves better.

I've always just turned a blind eye towards it as I've felt I had never really needed to stick my nose into it, however - what does slightly frustrate me about the management of this community, is the fact that it is slowly heading down the same path as TheWarZ administration. Alot of the factors Hekko mentioned involving moderation of the forums/community are very similar to the methods TheWarZ moderators used. In turn this just conjured a massive uproar from community members, and lead to simply more scrutinizing of the company/administrators in hand.

Sorry for making the comparison to such a horribly managed game/community, but FSE is heading down this road. I'm also starting to see the careless, recklessness of administration on these forums and I'd like to see it subdued.
Just saw this post... Sadly I have to agree. The NW administration is starting to act like that of the WarZ game, and clearly this path doesn't work. We don't say this because we hate the mods, we say it because we care about FSE.

Gentlemen, gentlemen. Everyone is entitled to his own opinion. There has been made another thread to seriously discuss the matters which have risen.

 I tip my hat to you, Hekko, and all brave enough to speak the words spoken today, or type, if seen in better preference. And to the so-called tyrants of FSE and the appointed administrators within and 'below' FSE... well...

Without a community, FSE doesn't have a game. So for the love of god listen.

Popular Thread Is Popular

Anyway, the last thread specifically regarding the 51st name lock, Vince's post started with "I've never seen such a comotion about nothing". What we're trying to tell you, is it isn't just nothing. This is a serious issue, and your treating it like a community joke.
