@Hinagiku: I'm sure it entertained some for you to argue with Waar (and in my opinion you did the better job (especially by not trying to put your opinions about your opponent in other people's mouths) ), I've already stated my opinion on it and would like to point out again that people getting into arguments with Waar and people like him is one of the things causing the deterioration of this forum.
Ramsus, what fight were you watching? All i saw hinagoku do was try to put words in others mouths. I'm not one to agree with Waar but this thread has certainly made me question the reasoning of my foul opinion of him.
definitely not the fight you were watching
heh, not sure if you thought about your post; it doesn't deny my statement in the least, it kinda supports it.
also; what does my join date have to do with it? I've been here long enough to realize the guys a dick sometimes; does that effect my ability to agree with him?
hope you two aren't going to start hating me simply due to the fact that I don't agree with you in this thread.

@TMS & Klown: Clearly you both have differences in opinions about rep and I don't see why you both had to come to the point of practically namecalling about it. Frankly I think both sides have valid points, that the system is inherently broken, and that I've yet to hear any really good replacements for it.
You obviously missed the post that said we resolved things. Perhaps if you didn't ignore posts to suit your points you wouldn't have posted this. If not, cool reading skills, bro.

What I really want is to hear something from Jacob and the admins. Tell us how you see the situation, what you plan to do or not do, what the goal is for the forum and community. Us users have given our input concerning the forums, but what really matters with respect to tangible change is what you think, and that is why I want to know.The problem is we have been trying to get some sort of feedback and all we get are empty words and promises. Considering how long the community has been complaining and seeing what has come of it. Nothing is going to change, at least positively. It'll keep going downhill until Jacob is forced to make changes due to some reason down the road.
Many of the "oldfags" have already left seeing how this place has gone down hill. I suspect more will do the same.

downhill? lol
This is the cycle all sites go through, old fags complain about "the good old days" and leave while new fags continue to show up and say "this is awesome; there's no other place like it". The last time these forums had "good old days" was when there was 100 users, everything after that had been the same endless cycle. Fpod, you complain quite a bit about many things and you can call me disagreeable but I honestly believe you're dramatizing the normal every day affairs of this community. There has been conflict for years and we're just going through another time of change, another rotation in that cycle. Sure we oldfags would love to see things go our way but that wont happen, so you have to adapt with the times or leave. The recent disappearance of Hibia is a perfect example, it was a fairly sad event but it's only a symbol of the old guard changing over to the new. I'm not convinced that staff is sitting on their hands like you seem to indicate; when LOL12 was getting out of hand he saw multiple bans and has changed most of the behavior that was considered suspect. I simply don't think it's time to throw the community or our admins to the fire based on the never ending cycle of users.
edit: wanted to add, I complain a lot as well, I hope you werent insulted by that... it's just what oldfags do, we complain.

Still pretty old though when compared to these damn younglings. Maybe you're right and I am dramatizing it but, maybe I know or see something that everybody else is missing. I do know people outside of S.D.

Used to do stuff
Many people just don't know what it was like "Back in the day"
Lurking was alot more fun then.
Going back to those old days will most likely never happen. All you can do now is try your best to fix the situation we have here. Honestly instead of saying we have a problem we should be giving out ideas to fix it. I gave my idea last week and it failed. Anyone got any other ideas?

yes sure go believe that it supports your statement, makes everything easier that way right? This post of yours truly makes you less credible of the topic. I know a lot more users can support my statements who just decide to keep silent to avoid more turmoil. And these users along with me have seen the guy's way of posting, his threads and his trolls long enough to have pictured the guy in a way that a newbie wouldn't. This would be the last reply I can donate to your posts in this thread since most of your posts can be easily categorized as a simple way of fellatio.
As for hating you, I do not believe that you do hope that we don't hate you by the simple fact of your provocations. That cliche you've been utterly saying "Not to agree with the guy but he's right" is just a simple facade to make you look unbiased. When it should be clear that ever since your earliest post in this thread you already took a side.
Like I said earlier this is the last reply I can donate to your posts in this thread. So if you're going to need more screen time then we'll let the other member's of the community give that to you. Anything you have posted and would post are just comments of a tourist who entered the community for the first time.
