It's ok, Raven, we all make mistakes. I of all people should know that lol
--- Quote from: Cut Glass on August 02, 2013, 11:22:58 PM ---King of the Bill is a backseat administrator. He tries to talk about how bad admins are, he logs everything people do for future drama and takes stuff way to seriously. He needs to screw off.
Also, I am going to put someone(I don't know who yet) in charge of my Administration team that can appoint admin rights to people they feel is right for the position.

Not as much as you might think. Again, the Psp and Hank thing was a misunderstanding, and only one of my other two dramas is about badmins.
I don't log everything I see. I mostly just use RTB namecheck, as well as a list in a txt file of people who have proven incurable problems. I don't normally take screenshots, but when I find someone being a major problem I screenshot all sorts of stuff for sake of completeness and getting the whole story.
Admittedly, I do backseat a little bit. Part of it is that I'm not the sort that can leave well enough alone, and I apologize if I've unduly gotten on someone's case. My time on the Bluzone back before it shut down changed the way I think of administration and I still haven't quite gotten past that yet; I keep on expecting admins to undertake a greater role in things, even when it's unnecessary or counterproductive. Thank you for helping me realize this, by the way.
Also relevant: as a result of my Asperger's syndrome I have a hard time knowing when to quit. I also hate to let people be torn apart by stupid mistakes, as I and my friends have been many, many times, so I naturally want to help people resolve problems in a civil, understanding manner.
I also am realizing that sleep deprivation is takingna toll on my attitude, and am trying to correct this. Knowing is half the battle.
I admit that I also tend to hold grudges much longer than I should, partially because of my long memory. I try to forgive, but I still can't forget. That even applies to my own mistakes, something I struggle with daily.
Glass, when I returned from my long hiatus, I expected you to be the same as when I left. But you changed. I admit I still remember your worse days when I think of you, but that should resolve itself soon enough. I apologize for any leftover hard feelings.
I hope we can understand each other now.
Also aren't we still friends on steam lol

I play on your server and it's really great! I play in times when there are least number of players in Blockland (I am right now in South Korea) and there are balancing issues when there are no admins online. I have not seen any instances of hacking yet, but somebody told me how I can abuse the /donatescore system to double/triple the scores if you multi-client. So if you need any admins, try me out!

I really like how King's attitude changes as soon as you mention administration. This is not the type of admins you want, seriously.

Dude, I been tired and pissed lately, and I admit it's been getting to me. We all have troubles seeing our own faults; I wasn't aware I was doing anything wrong until folks here pointed it out to me.
I was an admin back on Glass's Fortwars for about a week some months ago but it was shut down at the end of that week because of mistakes on both sides. I didn't do THAT bad of a job.
In-game I don't normally act like a richard. Apologies.
Also yeah, I'm not exactly a candidate for any admin position right now lol
Seriously though, Overmind, can you explain to me exactly what I did wrong while explaining myself, apologizing, and admitting my shortcomings and my difficulties with them, so that I can avoid it in the future?
