majestik 0 Posted March 26, 2003 you know he was picked? he is sane, mature, unbiased and experienced 1) this forums is insane. hence being here makes you loose sanity. 2) he doesnt care if you have been here for a year or for a day, because moderaing is moderating. hence, he is unbiased. 3) he's mature! 4) experienced. i'm still not sure about 1) beacuse only insane people agree to moderate gtaforums.... tank should train a team of monkeys to be moderators so none of you fools complain... one more thing boys and girls.. this is how real world works. you boss quits/gets fired/gets a better job. who will be your new boss? someone from the company? maybe. or maybe they will hire someone new? so see there is nothing wrong with being new and being in charge. ...you'll just all have to live by his rules!

Grandal. 119 Posted March 26, 2003 Congrats on becoming a mod ONYX, you seem like a fairly intelligent person and i hope you do a great job. I just wish you had a little better attitude and understood how some of the vets may be upset that a 4 day member is now a mod. You can star as many people as you want m8 but remember, on the forums respect is everything. I know you dont care about respect and whatnot but if you lost the "i dont want any friends" attitude, i think you could enjoy your time here alot more. This is just my opinion and i know it doesnt mean anything to you. One again, congrats and best of luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uno Carb 0 Posted March 26, 2003 Yeah ONYX, you still got time to chnage that attitude of yours. This is the internet, enjoy yourself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
central805 8 Posted March 26, 2003 Man, I guess the G! forums are getting a tad boring now? Haha, not that I care, I used to go there a lot until the board change. I just find the migration EXTREMELY ironic... -EDIT------------------ Wow, I'm dumb. Didn't even say "welcome" like a proper gentleman... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mario Vendetti 0 Posted March 26, 2003 but if you don't gain any respect or friends no-one will like to see some one moderate this community they don't even know But since when is it their choice? As much as I hate that.. it's the truth. You couldn't have put it any better. I'm not agreeing with anybody, but what the new mod just said is the honest to God truth.

gta3007 0 Posted March 26, 2003 yep... cerbera is just *snickers* Onyx turns out to be cerbera times 2. Keep looking, nothing to see here but another mistake. Illspirit- we all love and respect you, but the outsiders cause us trouble Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
one_careful_owner 0 Posted March 26, 2003 i had a thought earlier that i thought might explain some of the hosilities towards Cerb and Onyx. you talk about them being "respected members of the GTA community" and so should deserve respect here. the problem there is, for most people on this forum, this forum is the "GTA community". i can't be the only one who has never heard of/visited these other forums/sites that make up the "GTA community" so i can't be the only one who has never heard of Cerb or Onyx before. therefore, until we get to know them, they are (for all intents and purposes) newbies and they shouldn't get our respect until they earn it. for older and more respected members (from GTAForums.com) to be ordered around by someone they have no respect for will rankle them. i'm not saying this is correct and, in an ideal world, these "outsider" mods would be given a fair chance, but we all know that isn't going to happen and Onyx will always be one bad decison away from becoming another Cerbera. a shame but, if you really think about it, you'll realise it's the truth.

dizzy_gopher 0 Posted March 27, 2003 I agree to 0% of this... I'll give him one, very closely watched month, and I will tell you the low down on this sh*t... becuse alot of newbs seem model, but then backstab you... Watch out, now, this also might just be a lie... it's happened to me on other forum, a "TGF" a aproach -- he becomes a mod, then an admin, then closes down the site. What could I do? Nothing. Watch out, watch him closely... And that rule he made... SUCKS! f*ck it, ima break it, noone likes it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThUg AnGeL 0 Posted March 27, 2003 To be honest, I see nothing wrong with Cerbera or ONYX.. and all this arguing will scare away new members so just shut up, the admins rule this place and us arguing with them will just loose members...like I said before, deal with it, sh*t happens Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dizzy_gopher 0 Posted March 27, 2003 ...welcome new moderator... Illy I hate to say it but chuck is once again right...out with the n00b in with the vet's.. Just wont learn will you's... Its a shame really because I used to like Being SMBL forum Mod... I cant say how dissapointed iam with gta staff.... Im asumming ONYX is another Friend Illy, just as cerb is... whats a bet onyx will leave after 2 months... I can already hear the war brewing... This time somones goin to get hurt and It wont be the members... Yup, yup. This fool can't even get inot a gang, and yet he's a mod? Pft, f*ck that, just put him on the bench for a while, then whip out ol' Onyx (that name reminds me of pokemon... A qoute by the new mod: "I don't car about respect" THIS ASS HOLE HAS NOT PLAYED GTAII! You get it cramed into your head over and over... "Respect is Everything". This is gay. We'll see how long this lasts; many vets will be arguing with you for months on end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
central805 8 Posted March 27, 2003 hes now busted And MmMs is a mod again... Interesting turn of events. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
All_Vice_City 0 Posted March 27, 2003 Im confused? Maybe this is a joke, or another admin. disagreed with him being a mod, and banned him. But I think this was a joke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EvilGTAplaya 0 Posted March 27, 2003 Hmm...Illspirit says that a person who knows about GTA will not hurt the forums. Since when is this GTA? Last time I checked it was GTAForums.com. What I don't get is how letting a respected veteran be a mod at these forums will hurt the community. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
