Once upon a time a few months ago, things here weren't like they are now at all. Perhaps people who don't pay attention might not have noticed, but there has been a fairly dramatic shift in policy here at sythe. When I was a mod a while ago you could get away with anything and everything, within reason. Things were generally good, because even though it was easy to get away with things, mods had 1 thing most of the mods that are in now do not have: discretion. Most of the idiots were kept out and most of the respected people stuck around. Respect was something earned through personality and activity. Respect and popularity went hand and hand. Everyone knew who everyone else was and respect was honored. There were certain people you did not infract unless they really went wild. If you were a blatant idiot you would not be around for long. Staff was a fairly tight-knit group. For the most part, they backed each other and had generally a unified view of how sythe should be managed. What I just stated is not my opinion, but the honest truth.

I have absolutely no idea when this started to happen, but after I got demoded I fell off the grid for a while. I come back a few weeks ago to find some of the people I knew all to well off staff, and the rest soon to be demoded. I won't bother naming names, it's fairly obvious who everyone is. I came back due to further sythe drama that I had to assure was cleaned up. What happened between me coming back and right now is irrelevant. Right now I see shit being handled a lot different than it would have a few months ago. All of a sudden, there has to be a reason for everything. Idiocy, negative influences on the community, and general public disgust are no longer acceptable reasons to have someone dealt with here it seems. Everything must be backed by rules. Respect apparently has been washed away. Everyone is doing shit out of personal interest rather than what will benefit the community. I don't see any uniformity, just arguements between the people who agree with the opinion I'm presenting with you now and those who don't.

So I'm sure that most of you who actually bothered reading what's above are wondering "great fouis, there's change. so why the hell are you posting this?". I guess the idea is to tell things how they are at the moment. All these major changes on sythe do mean something, you know. Regardless, I shouldn't have to defend myself or the reasons for posting this here, as it's a fucking forum. I'll post and do what I want, within your oh-so brutally enforced rules. But my real point is as follows:

Sythe.Org, get your shit together. Figure out what you're doing and how you're going to be, because this instability will take you nowhere. Stop being so pissed off and uptight, and become more of a community. There should be actual reason to come here, besides e-drama.

After-thoughts: No single event prompted me to write this, regardless of what any of you think. I am not leaving, this isn't a goodbye thread. Although I won't be very actively posting on sythe, I'm always lurking, and I'm always on the IRC. I'm watching you.

shutup you fucking fag. if you're butthurt about the way things are now then gtfo. I personally don't give a fuck about your opinion on newer members and newer mods. Don't assume anything is going to change because you wrote out a speech. You're just a nigger.
