Notice from Pikari and Sakaki
« on: December 02 2006, 04:09 am »
We, Pikari and Sakaki, hereby notify CapturedWings that we resign from our positions as moderators and as members of this forum. Due to ongoing personal harassment by a certain moderator who will not be named, hereafter known as WARLOAD, and due to the fact that we can no longer sit by and watch other members be threatened, ridiculed, and harassed by said WARLOAD, we can no longer remain on this site. Over the past months, the hostile atmosphere instigated by said WARLOAD (hereafter known as A.SS for short) has continued to grow with posts like the ones linked. This moderator has considered himself above the rules of the forum by repeatedly breaking these rules (spamming, double/multiple posting, flame-baiting, stalking, among other things) and arbitrarily making up rules to harass other members of the forum, locking topics and giving warnings for no reason, and has personally threatened members with comments such as “deal with me.” Said *** has gone so far as to copy and paste members’ posts for the sole purpose of mocking them on other forums,  and personally threatened other moderators both on the forums and in moderator topics not viewable to general members.

Quote from: Arcademan
'll post where I please because I am who I am. Trust me...don't go down that path. You want to discuss the petition, fine. If you want to discuss me, do it somewhere else. Thank You.
Quote from: Arcademan
Keep going down this path and I will have this thread locked, despite your best intentions...and no, I don't get warnings for provoking people.

Next person goes off topic and want to add their 2 cents against me will get a warning.

END OF DISCUSSION!!!
Quote from: Arcademan
Thread locked...because nobody, including other moderators, do NOT make changes after I've done it.

Do it again and you'll have to deal with me.

Next time, try wording your post better so nobody misunderstands it.

THE WARLORD OF CLOW HAS SPOKEN!!!
Quote
Perhaps it's time for me to step down because I have no intent of backing down from any comments I make here. Only thing I'll say is certain people act like spoiled children and I treat them as such.
Quote
Gee...slight disagreement going on here. I'm surprised...NOT!!!
Quote
Which may be true but you'd be surprised on what I'm capable of doing.
Quote
And if it starts happening again in this thread, it will be shut down, whether anyone agrees or disagree.
Quote from: Arcademan
What idiot locked the original merchandise thread?!!

I have some to share however I refuse to do so until the original thread gets unlocked. There is absolutely no reason for it!!!
Quote from: Arcademan
Thread's all cleaned up. Continue on with the campaign and don't let my feelings deter you. My mind games are over and all but one passed it.
Quote from: Arcademan
Do what you need to do, the decision stands. You were told not to continue the off-topic conversation twice and refusing a direct order from a moderator of the forum, you were place on warning. It will stand for 24 hours. The thread has been cleaned up, my original post stands and all other off-topic conversation deleted. Continue on with the thread however if you want to continue attacking my viewpoints there, the next warning will be longer. Thank You.
Quote from: Arcademan
Heh. I make comments less critical than the quotes and the person who posted it now wants my head on a platter for bullying everyone in a forum I won't mention here...and will do everything in her power to have me stripped of my powers.

 Since I help finance the forum and also have talked to the owner...unlikely.
Quote from: Arcademan
And to think, the little she-devil who posted the petition is on a campaign to rid my likes from CapturedWings (I'll go ahead and name the place, why not?) The thread got locked there, the person warned and now sends me threatening PMs. I always enjoy a good laugh before I head on to bed
Read more  here and here

Due to all of the above mentioned (hereafter known as *******) and said moderator’s complete lack of respect for other members, going so far as to call them “inmates”, as well as administration that refuses to do anything about it, we can no tolerate said ******, as we expect many other members of this forum have suffered equally, as you’ll notice threads that have been locked, trashed, or disappeared without explanation. We therefore take our leave, effective immediately

Edited:Just because you had a bad experience and didn't bother to take it to the adminstrator doesn't give you the right to STEAL members from this forum.

I agree. I had been thinking on and off about leaving the boards due to other issues, but one of the main issues I have had, even as someone who hasn't been here as long as some others, was Arcademan's obnoxious and immature sense of superiority over everyone on the forums. All the stupid arguments that he was started and claimed that no one can touch him because he's in with the admins... personally, I don't care anymore at this point either. If he can come into other boards that he has no mod powers in and start acting like a mod and harassing kids less than half his age for the sole reason to start up drama and be the one with the last word over everything, then I personally do not care to stay here either.

Especially now that you  guys are leaving, I don't really see much of a purpose in staying on the forums either. It's sad that it has had to come to this, but now that the last active mods with a sense of, you know, sanity are gone, then I don't really want any part in it.

Anyway, let's just say I support your decision and that I think I will also follow your path and call it a day here at CW.

i personally haven't been hanging around much to really comment on this issue but it really saddens me to see so many nice people leaving the forums just because of one members harassment.

Ok people, I'm not going to do anything about this thread since I can see where pikari and Sakaki are coming from. (I can't anyway since I'm not a mod for this thread, but I'm just saying)

Even though I'm a moderator and will probably get my rear end ringed by Arcademan, I don't care. The two are correct though and I've decided to send the admins a big PM about it. I also sent it via e-mail.

Once I see Sli online I'll talk to him about this problem and see about getting it delt with.

Oh... and if this post get's deleted, I will REPOST it. Because every member has a RIGHT to know.

If your post get's deleted, please send me a PM with what you had and I'll repost it. Because this is a valid thread that requires admin attention because the reason we lost these two moderators is because of another moderator, and in my book, that's unacceptable.

I will also be logging this thread, so if it happens to be deleted I'll just send a copy of it to Sli... ;)

It is understandable, however, if everyone send's a PM to Sli and Little wolf about this problem then maybe something will be done.

Is it just me, or am I seeing posts here disappearing and reappearing? Now THAT, I believe, is harassment.

Scratch that... I'm reading from two sub-forums at the same time  :sweatdrop:.

I totally understand and agree, I've just been trying to ignore it and get on with enjoying my time here but if we're losing members like you two then it's time to stop ignoring it.

I haven't noticed yet and I've been to every forum here so far.

It's possible that it's a database issue, and Arcademan isn't online right now (not according to the online list below which, even if you where hidden, would still say)

Anyway, I ask that everyone here hold off on leaving please until I've talked with Sli and Little Wolf. Nothing will be accomplished if everyone just leaves without providing a voice, and I can't do this alone!!!!! >_< (well ok, maybe I can, but I'd prefer people back me up in this case)

My statement from the other thread stays: We stay put until we get Erase Card-ed or the issue is cleared.

Then again, another forum to join isn't a bad idea.  :heh:

Is Arcademan one of the head admins here? If he is, that's a problem, but if he isnt, should SLi do something about it instead of ppl just leaving? Im new here so I dont understand who is who...

And maybe we can talk to him? I dont know.....maybe we can all come to an agreement...

I don't think people's posts are disappearing - there are two threads with the same name so it's a little difficult to follow both. XD Pikari and Sakaki have both made a thread, so remember to check the other if you don't see your post?

I must agree with the harrassment thing, though. I was noticing a very condescending attitude from a certain mod, and quite honestly it put me off posting here. The attitude was quite uncalled for from someone such as a moderator, and the lack of respect at times was alarming.

Unfortunately, Kazemon, this has been a persistant problem for a long time now. Such a movement was a long time coming, and there have been several attempts made by various users to do just what is being done now.

If it's been a problem for a long time how come SLi or Little Wolf havent done anything yet?

I won't speak for the two admin's completely, only that the server move has been a top priority for Sli and Little Wolf.

It's like I mentioned before, perhaps now that the move is over (I think) they can bring there attention the major problem at hand.
