Firstly, andy, posting on this forum is not a privilege only for paying people. It's a privilege for anyone who is interested in LFS, and who doesn't cause problems by posting here. Buying LFS doesn't give anyone the right to be a problem on the forum, so let's get that bit straight first off.
Secondly, I've no plans to resign as a moderator just because you and Shoe Maker want me to. Far from it, in fact. You and Shoe Maker will continue to receive exactly the same treatment as anyone else on the forum, regardless, and my responses to your posts will continue to be just as they would be for anyone else posting in the manner that you do. If you think you could do better, then why not go ahead and ask to become a moderator?
I don't know about the technicalities of what's being discussed but Shoemakers post is extremely provocative IMO. I'm pretty sure he wanted it to be and it looks to me like a clear personal attack on Sam. If you want to get a point across post it in a vaguely relevant section, you managed to post this in one of the 3 sections of this forum that aren't LFS related, and don't start and finish your post with nasty aggressive comments. If your previous thread got locked I'm sure it was locked for a reason
Hey Alex
I moved this thread here, actually. It was posted in the Bugs - Program section. It just contains repeats of some of the content from the other thread that's still in that subforum, plus the extra stuff about how I suck at moderating etc.. it wasn't suited to the bugs section, so I moved it here.
If I post badly you'll address it ? Explain to me how my reporting a bug/hack, is posting badly ? I'm trying to help the devs fix something, and your trying to shut me up, just which one of us has the best interest of LFS at heart here ?
You still failed to acknowledge that your response to my initial posts about the hack were inapropriate, you post a link referring to an AI feature request that has nothing what so ever to do with some hack that lets multiple AI cars on a server which prevents people from joining it, but you tell me that Im out of line ? YOU WERE WRONG THEN AND YOUR WRONG NOW, HAVE THE BALLS TO ADMIT IT.
I typically post in these forums once a month, or less if I can help it, if I do post, it's because I have something to contribute to the devs or some scroat is bashing my servers because they wrecked everyone at T1 and got banned.
Apart from that, I NEVER POST IN YOUR PRECIOUS FORUMS, so what interpretation of English gives you the basis to make a statement like the one above, I don't post in these forums very often at all, just look at my join date and my number of posts so far, that tells you how little I post here (86 posts in 30 months, and about 20 of those posts have been this month alone trying to let the devs know of a serious hack and at the same time, get you off my back, thanks for boosting my post count).
Interstingly enough, you search through the forums for my posts, and find how many threads I posted in, that you felt the need to stick your face in to and pointlessly object to something that you just made up off the top of your head.
Of all the 'hack' topics on this forum, mine is the only one to be locked, by you, what makes my topic 'lock worthy' and the other 'hack threads' not ? Personal grudge perhaps ?
And to those that are not involved in this thread, but are making a point of jumping in any way, my previous post may be considered provocative, it is not however, outright offensive (however some may consider I'm trying to redress that balance with this very post...), yet I am still singled out for 'personal attention' by Sam to ensure... well, you know what ? to be honest, I don't know what he is trying to be sure of, it's not like I told anyone to go fcuk them selves or anything like that, THEN I would understand the attentions, but until now, Im just stating facts and trying to get a hack closed for the benefit of all the hosts that run servers, like I do.
There are MANY posts in the forum that discuss hacks, they don't get locked, but mine does, by someone that is gloating that he hates my guts, sorry but you work out his motivation.
If my posts are provocative, then it is because I am being provoked, don't assume, by reading 1 post of mine, that every post I make uses the same tone, I started out posting here in an unbiased and informative way, to try and let the devs know that there was a bug, it was Sam that came in and decided to get medevil on my ass, barking that it had already been reported and that I had no right to go using the work 'hacker' then he locked the thread.
Sorry if I consider that provocative, but when I take time out my busy life, to try and report something thats potentially disrupting for ALL LFS servers, then while I don't expect a pat on the back and a thank you, I certainly don't expect to be dismissed, misquoted, preeched at and silenced by some moderator with a grudge.
Furthermore, don't make assuptions that my previous thread was locked for a good reason, until you read it, you go read it first and THEN tell me it was locked for a good reason and that I am not being provoked in to this response.
Fact remains, that what I posted had NOT been reported before, and there are many 'hacking' threads on the forum, that don't get locked, by Sam or anyone else, but he makes sure to lock the thread I post in.
I know you want to see Redline close down Sam, I know you want me off your precious forums, and if you wanna stop me posting here, you go right ahead, your doing me a favour because then I don't need to waste time responding to you, or your kind, or any kind, or anyone, and if some arse gets banned from my servers, I will be unable to say jack shit about it, you can direct them to my forum if you wish, or you can let it fester, and provoke it further if that is your intent.
As I said before in other words, it would be a cold day in hell before someone of your intellect, attitude and character, would be allowed to moderate on the EA Sports forums, or any professional forum for that matter, you simply don't have what it takes to be professional about such things, your single minded, childish and spiteful, I have kids, I know these things.
After my work in the past to help close other hacks (ask Geraldine), you really think I would get a little more credit here, instead of being treated like some terrorist simply because I make an inoffensive post reporting a hack/bug.
Im utterly sick to the back teeth of you now Sam, your pompous attitude makes me want to vomit. It sickens me to my stomach that someone that's trying to help the devs, should be treated this way by the likes of you.
As long as LFS is being reprisented by people like you, it will always be held back, at least I will have the knowledge that my servers will always be busier than yours, and I don't need cheap gimmiks to do it, I just enforce clean and respectful racing, thats motivation enough for people to use my servers without the need to try and get 'licenses' like some pathetic 'need for speed script kiddies'
Knock your self out, I wash my hands of you, and your forums, you get what you deserve, and while the 'remove topic' and 'remove posting privilages' buttons may make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside, you pressing those buttons will cost LFS a valued contributer, your just too self centred to see that.
My servers will always be on line, long after yours are gone and forgotten about, get over it.
Holy cow! You're unbelievable! I refuse to believe you're so stupid that you still don't understand. I can only conclude that you're just determined to twist reality.
I locked the thread because you posted the bug and then entered into a tirade about how another LFSer was a hacker. You were wrong, it was inappropriate, nothing more could be achieved, the thread was there with the information for Scawen and its back-end was flame bait with you getting personal, first at Dazek by wrongly accusing him of hacking, and secondly at me (again, as usual..)
Umm.. LOL. That's really all there is to say. Just LOL.
I'm definitely not saying you're a nutter. I'm just saying you're acting like one again. Yowzer! Well.. so long, then. Don't worry, I'll get the door.
