In regards to recent events.

I'll keep this somewhat short for now, and I might expand on it tomorrow after I've slept as I'm just about to go lay down.


For starters, I wish to publicly apologize for my behavior over the last several months, ideally over the last 4-5 days. I understand why events transpired in the manner that they did, and I know that my hands are far from clean. I do wish to clear up any and all misconceptions that I can though.

In regards to the name change for Trin's account: This took place several months ago, while her account was still at 0 posts. This was easier than creating a new account and really should not be as huge of an ordeal as it was made out to be. No one would have even known about the name change, had it not been for her name still showing as "Eviltwindoll" under the sythechat listing on her profile.

That being said, I'd like to apologize on her behalf for the shit she stirred up, and on behalf of myself, for not only allowing it to go on as long as it did, but participating in it.

In regards to the fun ranks: The first two ranks were because I wanted to, no other reason in particular. Village Drunk, which she still has, and Legendary. The other two were in retaliation to the attacks that transpired afterwards, and done in poor taste. I understand the upheaval that this created, and would again like to apologize for this. She still has Village Drunk, but the rest have been removed.

The forumbans/bans that I placed were only after things spiraled out of control, in an attempt to try and calm the situation and try and figure out exactly what was going on. Several members far overstepped their boundaries however, and I will not apologize for my actions towards them for their behavior.

I stepped down for a couple days, with the intent on staying away for longer, but I had both staff and members alike pretty much begging me to reconsider, so that is what I have done. I have however had a bit of time to think and reflect, and plan to adjust accordingly.


I understand there's going to be a bit of resistance regarding my return, and I expect that. I will hear out any comments and concerns here or via PM if necessary though. As for the bans that I issued, I will have little to no role in handling how those are processed. I will allow Roary and the rest of the staff to do that, as I feel it's only fair that it be handled by uninvolved parties.

 

Welcome back.

I think it's good to see you have no objection to publicly admit your wrong doings and stand open towards criticism, even after situations like these. Kudos for that.

 

Good. Welcome back

 

Welcome back, dude. Glad that you decided to return.

 

Good show old sport.

 

Everyone makes mistakes, welcome back

 

You've dealt with this situation in a professional manner, and I applaud that. Welcome back, n4n0!

 

Honestly I have no idea what you're talking about, but this shouldn't be a news announcement. >.>

 

Welcome back

 

Welcome back n4n0/Trin. The events this past week did spiral out of control, but hopefully we can all learn from our mistakes and put the past behind us.

 

Welcome back!

 

welcome back, hope all is well.

 

I'm not going to sugar coat it, I'm not excited to see you return as admin.

As well as the things already mentioned you locked valid twc request without letting it be handled by an unbiased admin and then proceeded to delete all incriminating evidence.

I truly believe that giving out fun ranks in exchange for sexual favors is unacceptable. You can say what you like to try and justify it, but its a real slap in the face to the people who actually contribute something to the site.

I think that if there hadn't been a retaliation, you would have continued to abuse your admin rank until someone stopped you. You would have buried any evidence against trin, continued to give her ranks and special privileges, and muted, banned, and silenced anyone who stepped in your way.

I realize that you've contributed to the site, and I recognize that making an apology is at least something. But I'd have respected you a lot more if you had taken a break for a while before returning as a global instead.

 

Welcome back, N4N0. <3

 

Welcome back. I'm glad to see that you have returned. Hopefully the future will be bright!

 

Props for making a formal apology.

 

Giving ranks in exchange for sexual favors, and giving ranks to the person I've been in a committed relationship with for 10+ months are two entire different things. You may not feel that way, but if that's the case then we'll just have to agree to disagree.

As for that TWC report, that was far from valid in my eyes. It was just another attempt to get under my skin and further the trolling. I did not delete the thread, nor did I archive it, so any other staff member could have weighed in on it if they wanted. A TWC for trolling the SF is utterly asinine if you ask me. Not to mention, Trin has not, nor will she even be touching the market, so a TWC would have been pointless either way. She has no interest in the market, and if by some ungodly chance there's something she needs, then I'll personally handle that.

As for your claim of me "muting, banning, and silencing" anyone who stepped in my way, I did no such thing until things escalated to the point of our private photos and information being posted on the forums. Up until that point, I had not issued a single ban, had not issued a single forumban, nor even so much as an infraction. Personally I feel you're over exaggerating this, but again, I suppose this will just be another "agree to disagree case"

 

Phew. Welcome back buddy.
