New Terra skin is gonna get reinstalled probably within the next 30 min
I find it sad that the majority of the people are misinformed about this whole situation. And then they go on to mislead others.
IF we were trying to take control and force everyone to do what we want we wouldn't be polling people etc to ask how the boards should be run now would we?
And I'm sure everyone agrees that community input on how things are run/adminstrated is better than one person having it all and doing everything based on their own interests, rather than how the community wanted things to be.
CK9: There are many more updates than just that. If you went on IRC you'd be aware of what all has happened.
As far as losing trust, I really can't see how we've lost your trust if you think about it logically. We have given you a lot back that xfir took from you just since we moved.
One example: xfir forced everyone to store 100 PM's or less. He thought they took up space and slowed the boards down. That is so untrue.
We've upped the limit to 1000 PM's. We don't care how much info you want to store in PM's, we'll allow it. (And if that limit's not high enough we can raise it even more)
I notice that most of the people who are against the forum move are people who rarely go on IRC. They have absolutely no clue what is going on.
Remember when we added Moogle as an op to help us out in #Outpost2?
About 5 secs after the +o mode change showed up in the channel xfir pm'ed both me and Lev saying "You didn't ask me first. You can't do that".
He thought we were answerable to him for stuff we did on IRC. Which is also wrong. Levi started the IRC chan, xfir didn't. xfir doesnt make the rules on IRC. Therefore we have no need to answer to xfir on things we do in the irc chans.
To be painfully honest, xfir did almost nothing to help out the OPU cause. He may have coded 2 PHP scripts like the gamers list but that was something we could have easily done ourselves and wasn't totally necessary to the community.
For those of you who use the forums primarily for chit chat and don't see why we're doing this, I'm sorry. The interests of the gaming community need to come before the interests of the people who only talk on here and dont really share a connection to OPU, since this is the only remaining body of people who play OP2, and we need to keep it alive.
