This website is overly corrupt which is why you all know I left.

I just want to create a thread which indefinitely will get closed because it opposes said corrupt staff members. Anyways, I just want to say:

Hero is leaving now because of the corruption I saw long ago.
His shit is getting closed because he's complaining how it runs, which is stupid, because it's not like he can start a revolution anyways. This just shows that the staff is weak because they fear one member's opinion. If they didn't, they could have just as easily left it open as they did close it.

Anyways, I just want to say my final words of irony:
Seth Cross closes Hero's leaving thread after he himself made a thread long ago noting his temporary leave...
Hero's may be permanent or temporary, but still, he's a valued member (much more helpful than many mods); and therefore his leaving of the website is a matter which should be noted by a simple thread. But said thread was closed, by Seth Cross.

The Helper agreed himself that this website is a dictatorship, which indeed means that the opinions of the member's does not matter. Corrupt, yes, because this is supposed to be a forums for the peoples not for the admins and moderators.

Good day to all, including those who fell into the pit of corruption.

When did I "leave"? o_O

This is getting stupidly out of hand. Hero's poll was closed because it wasn't going to change anything. As thus, it was going to become a spam fest or a place for people to bitch and be bitched at.

The staff has always been decided by the staff. It happened like that BEFORE Hero and will after Hero. Hero is no savior, no martyr. He wasn't going to change the way things happened and the only thing that would happen is SOME people would find their feelings hurt. And leave.

Which happened. Thus, it's better we put an end to the charade before it started getting steam.

Corruption? The only "Corruption" around here is the book I wrote. You say corruption like this is the government. It's not. You have no guaranteed rights or privileges. Such things are decided by the owner of the forum and his/her staff.

Get over it. Stop your bitching. If you don't like the way things are done, you're more than welcome to follow Hero, leave, and find someplace "better".

Good luck with that. You'll need it.

Elmst, you need to come back. And TH was just joking (I think).

It is all logical, it is just that the staff are a little more stubborn than other giddy and jolly admins (some actually).

You should still stay, you are helpful. :D

Besides, I don't think Hero is leaving. He still sticks around the graphics zone and lurks the forum. Hopefully. :(

Well, yea, this thread is probably going to get closed. UNLESS they don't just to prove you wrong. xD

Yes.

I never left. Ask any of the forum staff. I was still here. I stopped posting for a time for personal reasons. I was still here.

Come to think about it, that thread really wasn't even about that. I was reflecting upon the differences between the TH.net I first came to and the TH.net we have now.

Everyone assumed I was leaving o_O Like the one time I actually left and someone assumed I was dead o_O

1) Not coming back. Talk on XFire and MSN with me all you wish. But I'm not coming back.

2) It's not logical, you'll see what Hero and I are talking about eventually.

3) Can't stay if I'm not coming back :D

4) He's leaving.

5) They won't close it because of my too scared argument, hopefully.

Lol.

@elmst: Seth made a rule after his supposed "leaving" thread that he shall no longer approve of hello/good bye threads.

And Seth, you use o_O too much. :p

Well, anyways, see ya later bud. Hopefully... (maybe even on another site)

Childish drivel?
I'm sure they said the same about Lenin.

Anyways, go ahead and keep it open, insult me, let's just hope that the members see the light. I don't need the moderators too, they're already far too deep into the corruption.

what? dictatorship = corruption?

No true, corruption is if its not working how it should be.

Everything here is worknig how it should be.

Now, I thikn both you and Hero have idiotic points and are complaining about nothing. I have been to plenty of forums, and they all pale and crubble in comparison to TH.net.

I was more referring to him being a revolutionist than a communist, otherwise, for the record, I am quite communist/socialist lol

I'm not insulting you and I apologize if you think I am. I'm insulting this topic.

What "corruption" do you see here? Because we're not letting you control the site? If we wanted to do that, why would we have a staff to begin with? The site would be self-maintenanced and a mess. [Not because of YOU, but because of members who are immature and childish. Again, not YOU specifically, nothing I say is directed at YOU unless I say so. Please keep that in mind.]

Please, "enlighten" me and show me what this corruption is. Because we close threads we see as potentially troublesome? Over a topic you're not going to change?

Cause that makes no sense to me.

Yes, please show us the corruption. I fail to see it. EVERY FORUM I KNOW runs under the same rules: the staff elects the mods and the mods run the site. How hard of a concept is that to grasp? :nuts:

Huh? When?

We call that a pointless thread. :)

TheHelper.net, a place where all moderators and administrators can live at peace!!

It is a forum for people, sure, but not led by people. :)

> Am I mistaken of the meaning of this thread?

He never directly said he was leaving.

Actually, if you read Hero's thread you would see that I am all for the extra media tags and Seth's technical concerns are of no concern when you have Ace in the house. Ace is busy with the chat and other things. Video tags are cool and I am definitely going to push to add more in the future if I have to code them myself. Not now though.

The site may be a kind of dictatorship but I sure as hell do listen to what the members say. They just have to talk to me. I let issues be voted on and only usually usually dictate the huge decisions (servers, admin appts, new features of the site). There are checks and balances as well. You guys just assume that the admins are all up on what you are talking about when I did not know there were even issues until today.

I never said I want the people to run the site. That'd just be stupid. But the moderators and admins here seem to be the worst choices, they're always uptight and just close things without further thought. They're merely androids assimilated into the thoughts of The Helper. The people should at least have a bit of say in how this website is run, because, currently the suggestions forums seems to be:
User: I have a good idea [insert good idea here]
User2: I agree, we should implement it :O
Mod: No, it's stupid.
Mod2: No, it's stupid [add a reason]
Mod3: No, it's stupid [repeat previous reason plus another]
Admin: No, it's stupid [please note there's no reason]

Honestly, every time I've seen a thread closed, it's been for good reason. If you don't understand, why not PM the mod and ask like that? (although I'm not sure if thats allowed o_O)
