We should all go run Raging Earth Turbo.

Since I play unrated, if someone is extremely stupid I just quit. So I have no interaction with other mods. I do think that the ASS is idiotic. If you can't make the other person understand by links and such then either wait until he quits or quit yourself. Who cares about your internet rating of yugioh skills.

I love how [i]you[/i] are the one saying this.

Also, this has made me not want to test decks on DN any more. Great.

(And, for the record, I was one of the people who he jokingly told he would take bribes...)

This.
The World Champ games have always been the same as well.
On the verge of losing -> power-off -> Opponent loses 100 rating points -> Trollface.jpg.

DMG has always been better
also ITT: horrible admins bitching about other horrible admins

This sounds so exactly like DMG...except UnknownDuelist is almost as ethereal as YCMaker.

Wow. I really don't recognize half you guys anymore.

Totally. I thought you were reasonably intelligent people and then I discover you're not.

I wouldn't have believed this until I read your story. Now I think it's probably true. The fact that the other admins are terrible is overshadowed by the fact that you come out seeming at least as terrible as they are. A higher IQ? Maybe so, but my point stands.

All I have been able to surmise from your post is that you were a dick and lost your trivial admin privileges because of it.[/quote]
Q4E?

[quote name='Cursed Reaction' timestamp='1312193291' post='5403860']
Lol at banning Mars and Klavier for the sake of it.

So the topic summed up is: DN is terrible, its mods are, in the majority, terrible. Head admin is a cheater and pervert. None of them understand jokes.
[/quote]
Well, what I got from this is: RobotBowtie is a dumbass, the admins are stupid.

[quote name='Noel Vermillion' timestamp='1312194533' post='5403872']
So you missed the parts saying that admin is a pervert who rejects good mod materials because he preffers to give his friends mod rights?
[/quote]
Since when have moderators anywhere been picked based on merit? Mods are chosen because they're popular, get on a lot, and usually can be trusted to spell half their words correctly.

I knew I would get fired, I just didn't think it would be that soon and for joking around.


Also, I thought there would be more dumbasses on here, but most of your posts have been reasonable. The insults are really a nice touch because I'm used to all of the goddamn suck-ups on DN.

It's getting worse to. I played a guy who tried to use Breaker to "negate and destroy" my Soul Exchange, during my turn of course.

I explained on both points that 1) you can't during my turn, and 2) it wouldn't negate the effect. His response?

1) It doesn't say my turn only
2) If it's not on the field it doesn't get it's effect

I linked him to rulings, called him an idiot, then left.

Okay, I've actually read this now as you know from our msn conversation and I'd just like to make my feelings known to everyone here. I won't repeat everything I said to Bowtie, but I do feel that if he looked at this from a neutral perspective his opinions wouldn't be so drastic.

Robotbowtie seems like a douche, I wouldn't want him as a mod anyway.

Well, from the story told, it's pretty easy to figure out why one would lose mod privileges. I want to go to forums and sites where mods may not be hardasses all the time, but they at least do their job seriously. I want to be able to talk to a mod and get something taken care of, without being ignored, lied to, or threatened for their own amusement.

Kidding around is fine among friends, but it stops being funny if you make the same joke to different company, or if someone overhears it and doesn't think it's good.
