why does everyone hate WP so much???
-
Because they're a bunch of whiners and the owner is a psychopath.
-
I don't hate it, I just don't go there very often anymore.
-
I have been banned from there a number of times. Probably for good reason.
I go there. Troll. Make people laugh or cry. Then I forget about it for a while.
I like to call it character building. In these terms it is noble and well meaning. Actually I have not been back a while. Quatermass is no longer a mod huh? I should go back and visit him now he has no power to make stupid mod decisions and has no power to ban me. We could be friends and joke about old times. We could laugh and laugh.

I don't hate it, exactly.
A lot of members here were banned from there for very silly reasons and others here spent a great deal of effort trying to help Alex run the place, only to eventually become completely disgusted with him. Odeon was banned for comparing WP to a bad daytime soap opera, for example.
-
ok, thanks. i understand a little better now. not been into forums before and i found wp and thought it was cool, then i found you guys and i havent been back to wp since.!! no real reason except this site is better and a smaller number of members.
as a newbie though, it was apparent that many didn't like wp, also that there are two members who aren't very popular, and that whining is a no no.
the last one i agree with, the second one is none of my business, and now you have answered the first one! thank you
-
WP is full of whiners, dishonesty and overly sensitive mods. How are people going to get support when they don't recieve criticism?
Sadly a lot of forums are like WP.
-
whining is a no no.
Not really, it just has its place. There's a serious discussion forum here to whine with reprieve.
WP is a good site with a lot of good information.

Anyone who would like to pay homage to QM the last of the awful mods there who managed to avoid being fired like his contemporaries somehow, there is a thread
http://www.wrongplanet.net/postt150386.html
I have written a few words and hope that he receives them in the utmost respect and reverence that is afforded to him.
I think they were still kinder than these ones

DING DONG THE WITCH IS DEAD that is so funny!!! that was a very dry, whitty, sarcastic goodbye. hope he deserved it :zoinks:
-
The moderation there can definitely be annoying. Like sometimes I see something and wanna reply, but the fuckingthread has just been locked because people were arguing. wtf.
The good thing about it though is there's always new posts. There's also a really hot blonde there too

They must've deleted that comment already. :-\ The overmoderation and censorship at WP will never end.

I posted in there. He still has no idea it is me (soph). He said I'm not allowed back when richard asked :LOL:

Your first post has already disappeared. Do you have a copy you could repost here or in the Re-posted forum?
I remember the second one. Of course Qatermass promptly locked the thread as soon as he got his "mod powers" back.
-
There has been a history about WP and unfortunately a majority of us had the dirty works from the corrupted moderators, other than that I guess its useful to rant about random crap on there? :M
-
wp is good because there are always new posts and new threads. And with more members, there are always a few idiots to have fun with. I really don't like the moderation though
-
Yes some new modfag came racing in to warn me. Naturally I was humbled and cowed by such action...or something
I have removed your sarcastic post from Quatermass' retirement thread. It is against the site rules to belittle other members. This is an official warning.
Really? So you are the guy who enforces rules and the rule of "do not belittle members" is one that you enforce?
Actually that sounds pretty fair. Let's see if it is.
There is some guy on here. This is what he said to the forum membership that disagreed with his point of view.
"You disgust me. Pathetic, petty little minds who cannot get over slights either imagined or exaggerated as justification for doing what you want, regardless of how others feel. You are poor examples of the human race as a whole, regardless of whether or not you have Asperger's, autism, or are an NT"
Seems a pretty cut and dried case of belittling and a LOT nasty than my silly comments right?
OK glad we are on the same page. This guy's punishment was a return to full mod powers and a year on a thread where people are allowed to laud praises at him.
But you are here in all fairness and responsible mod duties to combat such things or are you going to let this one slide.
I mean that quote in Animal House says it doesn't it. "All animals are equal but some are more equal than others"
So by the way pleased to meet you. I am Rossc and I see that you are Tallyman.
I am glad we have this silly business of you trying to give an ineffectual and hypocritical warning to me because now neither have to try to pretend the other is completely ignorant or stupid and despite the rudeness of your introduction to me I am happy to treat you respectfully in the PM.
Now let's look at the quote and what I directed at Quatermass. There was nothing really in it (certainly not in comparison to his effort above last year). Quatermass was a despised mod. Over many years he was seen as the mod unreasonable mod only just pipped at the post by Sinsboldly. Believe me that is poor company to be in.
He was emotional, unreasonable and loved nothing better than baiting members he did not like into doing something banworthy. He was many times weighing in really nasty or condescendingly to debates (the type of comments that a non-mod would likely get warned or banned for and without censor) the member response in the same style and boom..banhammer time. It was a nasty little bit of power levering.
So to such a man? At worst my comments were a little bit sarcastic and at least subtle and vague enough to not be an obvious slap in the face. But what you actually want is not in any way a true representation as to what people thought of him. Instead just a small selection of well wishers. For all he has done for this forum and in fairness let the comments flow and if he is to be remembered in his mod job let it be uncensored. Good and bad and indifferent.
He was liked, hated, people thought him strict, people saw him unreasonable, people found him nice people, found him nasty and he would know this. If he is not a thin-skinned hypocrite, he would know this represents a more realistic view and a teasing from me or worse is not going to drive him to tears.
So Tallyman, don't try to warn me. Take off the warning. Have a rethink as to the thread and its censorship and consider the hypocrisy and silliness of the whole belittling rule. [/i]
They really don't get it do they? Weird.
I don't have a copy. I know I should have made one but it was late.
Something just saying that his leaving was a great decision that I agree with and I am sure many members past and present will applaud it. Also that I may have one or twice said something that may under some circumstances be seen as not to be completely in favour with him but now he has stopped being a mod I am sure we will be very close and in time best friends. I then said it was time for a celebration and showed a youtube clip of a child production of the Wizard of Oz "Ding dong the witch is dead"
All quite innocent stuff.
-
Tallyman is the one who banned my last account for repeated sexual posts- EVEN THOUGH my sexual post was towards a fake troll account who was posting sexual stuff "her"self :dunno:
-
Long ago I came to view WP and Alex Plank as the Benny Hinn Ministries of Autism.
He has run his site as a cash-cow to be milked for all it's worth.
His moderator policies are actually quite simple: you controll a flock of sheep by introducing a wolf. You controll prey by controlling their predators. Quatermass was the predator used to controll the sheep. It's a very cynical form management.

That sounds pretty reasonable to me. Ding dong the witch is dead would be pretty funny.

I pop in from time to time. Too much drama & whining. :zombiefuck:
-
I got banned for no reason from WP so I don't go back there. I do wonder who did the banning, though.
Edit: just thinking that maybe they did it because they found out that I am an admin here. I wonder.
-
I wish I had kept count of the number of times I had been banned
-
Oh...thanks to Hyke who DID copy the quote prior to me having it removed.
Here it is
I am sure that your decision to vacate the moderator position was a very good one and one that will be very well received by the members past and present who have got to know you. A very sensible decision that I personally commend.
But I know I may have once or twice said something to you that may (or may not) have been construed by some interpretations as a little severe on your ability to make reasonable and reasoned, fair and rational moderating decisions.
Anyhow you have vacated that position and I am pleased and I suspect we will no doubt become good and close friends in our time here now.
I think it calls for a bit of celebrations.

I'm not banned there, and I'm an admin here too, though.
I only have a handful of posts there and I bend over backward not to be offensive, but I can't imagine you being offensive in any way.
-

You are? Hell I am not. I think it is funny. I have been banned 4 times and no doubt if I can be bothered getting re-instated or set up a new account....gets kinda old after a while though don't it? :o
Same old WP and I think that the reason I will always end up banned is because I am not one to turn a blind eye. I call it as I see it right or wrong. Not the type of honesty or assertiveness they want there.
-
I don't hate it, I must admit I post there quite a lot.
But it is fun to bitch and gossip, and even though I like that site there are some members I can't stand.

I had over 500 posts there. I did once post a link to Intensity and I got a warning for it. Also had some of my posts deleted from when I had a disagreement with beentheredonethat even though we sorted things out.

Who was it that warned you about the Intensity link? So then after someone deleted your posts, you were just suddenly banned without any warning or notice?

I can't remember who gave me the warning, tbh. I got banned during one of Alex's cullings of moderators. I didn't get any warning or notice. Just tried logging on one day and my password wouldn't work. And it wasn't a case of forgetting my password although that did go through my mind heh.
-
Are you sure it was from being banned? When you get banned on wp you should still be able to log in, just not be able to view the forum index page or any of the threads
-
I don't know how else to look at it. I can't log in because it says my password is wrong. I know what my password is/was there.

Or a mod changed her password, a way to ban her silently so the other mods nor alex would know she is banned because her name won't show up on the ban list.

JerryHatake was a real twat. He did an article on the internet about how bad zomg is - it was absolutely hilarious. I'll try and find it. Don't think he still postts on wp though

It's written really badly as well, like a fucking kid wrote it

I'm pretty sure he was american. He was at university there anyway. Can't say for sure though. I think he was just a bit thick tbh
He was also an ass licking prick
-
He was at uni? His writing does not reflect that. He made a lot of mistakes in those two articles.
