Mr. Sythe.

The willingness of the good to suffer at the hands of the evil.

Perhaps if you had anything to say I'd respond to you. As it is you seem to be intent on trolling my base of moral support for the purpose of gaining attention. You have my attention, now what do you want?

I just wanted to call you a big jerk face. x9 was my baby and you banned him :'(

But honestly, on a more serious note, you and I both know that I'm not a troll. Sure, I frequent the spam forum.. But so has pretty much every respectable member that has ever came through Sythe. Hell, you created it and you continue to keep it going.

If you want a more "mature" forum, delete the spam forum. But in all honesty, the spam forum is a safe place for people to get the bullshit posts out of their system, and it's a great place for the overzealous "staff" that you have employed to move posts that they don't think are befitting of the other sections.

You hate being trolled, and I respect that. You feel like you deserve, if anything, respect from your members; and you do. However, you will not get that by banning members who really don't deserve to be banned. x9 for example was a great and loyal member of this forum, and you banned him over a little tiff you had that wasn't even related to Sythe.

If you REALLY want to stop the trolls, delete the spam forum. This is coming from the most well-known spammer of this site. Just delete it. It will honestly be a relief to everyone on this site. Just be aware of the consequences. You will be left with a dry, semi-intellectual body of users who's main goal is to suck up and gain a moderator rank. (for examples, see every response to every post you've ever made, Mr. Sythe.)

Is sythe intending to close Sythe soon? As far as this threads gone its been, Costs to run, sythe closing, trolling, philosophy.
Not sure many of the question have been answered.

How much would you sell Sythe.org for I MEAN EVERYTHING.

ALSO I need advertising next to the posting rules box down in the bottom left. Who do I contact I don't want a little link at the bottom..

1. I'm hoping I don't have to close the site.
2. The costs of running the site incl. taxes have eroded the profit margins. I will be looking at incorporating the site into a company when I finish this semester.

To clarify the only thing really keeping the site afloat right now is the influx of donations. I have hopes that it will come good though.

It's like you guys are hired to be suck-ups. It's fucking crazy.

I thought that's what people who wanted to be mods were supposta do.

I dont think closing the spam forum is going to help the troll Situation.

My question was out of pure interest. Nothing to do with what I believe the site going down. However if Sythe did require funds to stay running I'd help out more. (Yes I know, that's what donating is for.)

God damn it ,Mr. Sythe.

Thankyou for answering my question.

I lol'd fucking hard.

You see what I'm talking about.

These people quite literally have a book of my quotes that they carry around with them, which they inject inanely into every conversation anyone has with me on my own site.

GET A LIFE.

 

Over the last month or so I have resolved to more accurately apply my philosophy in this part of my life.

I live only for my own sake and for those things which bring me pleasure in my life. This is the rational egoist's creed.

Therefore, in so far as this site brings me pleasure, it is a good to me, and I will continue running it. And in so far as it does not, I will cease its operations.

As such I have no patience any longer for people who maliciously troll me on my site, nor those who interact in a friendly manner with such people. I can and will ban such people. And I really sincerely encourage such people to go start their own site and leave me and my users in peace.

These are my terms. They are non-negotiable.

In short: if you don't like it, please just go and leave us in peace.

Were you not previously paying taxes on the site? or have they just gone up?

question 2: Does this mean you will be looking at taking a commission on all sales on Sythe? or do you have other plans in mind.

Ok fair questions.

I'm in a higher tax bracket now due to work, the higher tax rate absorbs the entire profit margin.

No, that would kill the market. I will probably be incorporating Sythe LTD in a low tax jurisdiction.

Making it a limited company would of fixed your tax issues so yea. Surprised to know you didn't do this when you got your first job.

 

[astalavistababy]

To save making a new thread i'll just post this here.

How come the irc has been shut down does this have to do with X9 or is it a Staff only matter?

No one to run it for the moment, also I don't want the assholes on x9's network trolling the IRC.

I will be reopening it hopefully with new modifications complete in a week or so.
