Title: And some say that some PMBD people are mean.... Post by: Yaardarm Monkey on 2007 July 18, 22:29:07 MaxoidDrea
Date: Jul-18-07 01:36 PM PDT Subject: MaxoidDramaLlama Hi everyone, Most of you have been wondering what happened to MaxoidDramaLlama. Drama is no longer with our team. It seems a handful of Simmers harassed her so much and were so mean to her in her guestbook that she has now left. While trying not to turn this message into a rant, I want to make sure our community is clear that myself and the other Maxoids will NOT tolerate harrassment on this Web site. I'm now searching for a new community manager and will be permanently banning anyone who harasses Simmers on this site. Thanks for your help and cooperation in keeping our site clean and a friendly place to hang out. the link to post (http://bbs.thesims2.ea.com/community/bbs/messages.php?threadID=360a70c9ba9b388c29de2eff2006e024&directoryID=2&startRow=1&openItemID=item.2,item.43,item.61,item.104,item.41,item.127,item.23) wow, those little ankle-biters and tweens at the BBS can be nasty :shock: Title: And some say that some PMBD people are mean.... Post by: RedLove on 2007 July 18, 22:32:18 I can imagine what that was like:
OMGSZSZSZ!!!!!! You dudn't makesz my l0t numba wun. Yoo dudn't r4te it hieeee. ZOMG yoo need to give me moar beenies. :lol: Title: And some say that some PMBD people are mean.... Post by: keirra on 2007 July 18, 22:38:33 I don't get why people harass creators and mods on forums. I can't imagine doing that.
I guess I still go by "if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all". I have only sent emails to creators to tell them how much I like what they share. I never have sent an email to a mod. Title: And some say that some PMBD people are mean....

I think some stick it out just to be stubborn, others say 'screw this!' and somehow look like wussies. The mandate to be nice must be soul-crushing. Title: And some say that some PMBD people are mean.... Post by: missangelica on 2007 July 18, 23:03:17 Wow, I knew that she wasn't handling the harassment well, given her 12 year old responses in her journal like the, "I don't HAVE to have my guestbook on," that had me absolutely tickled because I wouldn't think a grown woman would act like that. However, for her to *quit* because of them? That's crazy! Shame on the kiddies that were so horrible.
Title: And some say that some PMBD people are mean.... Post by: KingElizabethI on 2007 July 18, 23:29:26 Actually, I'm not sure if this had anything to do with it, but there were some top rated stories which were deemed "adult" and therefore deleted. Lots of fans got mad, and I'm not sure whether they went for the SMs or the Maxoids, but that could be a part of it. Or, maybe EA is just covering up the fact that maybe there was an inside argument causing MaxoidDramaLlama to quit.
Title: And some say that some PMBD people are mean.... Post by: Pescado on 2007 July 19, 00:16:33 I would imagine that mostly, for someone to moderate that mess requires an extreme tolerance for pain, and the ability not to get butthurt like that.
Title: And some say that some PMBD people are mean.... Post by: Ensign EO on 2007 July 19, 00:34:51 DramaLlama certainly picked an appropriate name.
Title: And some say that some PMBD people are mean.... Post by: redisenchanted on 2007 July 19, 01:46:24 I think it must be one of the worst jobs in the world to moderate there. I can't fault the poor woman.
Title: And some say that some PMBD people are mean.... Post by: TashaYarrr on 2007 July 19, 02:07:50 RedLove, is your icon of Rosario Dawson/Gail from Sin City, or one of those Prince-esque female singers from the 80s?
I swear to god I can't tell and the longer I look, the more unsure I become. Title: And some say that some PMBD people are mean.... Post by: RedLove on 2007 July 19, 02:10:12 Rosario Dawson. :D I saw it and had to have it! *swoons*
Title: And some say that some PMBD people are mean.... Post by: TashaYarrr on 2007 July 19, 02:20:27 The ironic thing is I made a bunch of Sin City icons for LJ at one point and I *still* couldn't tell. I suck.
Title: And some say that some PMBD people are mean.... Post by: missangelica on 2007 July 19, 03:29:30 I had a vague memory of someone telling me about Drama Llama after I posted a journal entry of what she said here. I did a quick search and found it (http://phorum.mustnotbenamed.com/viewtopic.php?t=819). The most interesting sentence of what lilyroseisapirate said is: "Sim master drama llama is an idiot and her posts and bannings calling out members is enough to confirm it." Calling them out? Clearly a disaster waiting to happen! I don't feel as bad that she got harassed now. Maybe I should wander over to the BBS and find said calling out for further amusement. But then, it is the BBS.. *shudder*
Title: And some say that some PMBD people are mean.... Post by: SJActress on 2007 July 19, 03:37:19 Well, we talked about this situation weeks ago.
Worth a look, anyway: LINK REMOVED Because of what's posted on the BBS, I found the juxtaposition of the two sides of the story rather interesting. 8) Title: And some say that some PMBD people are mean....

Rosario Dawson is very attractive. I'm not into women (being the straight female that I am ^^), but she's got this "look" that makes her so respectable and beautiful. I loke her with short hair. And normally I don't enjoy short hair styles on women... but some pull it off so well. Title: And some say that some PMBD people are mean.... Post by: SJActress on 2007 July 19, 20:26:59 Thanks, miss angelica, I forgot about which board it was on.
Here is the pasted thread post REMOVED Title: And some say that some PMBD people are mean.... Post by: Anouk on 2007 July 19, 21:00:48 I would not have quit, I would have banned them all untill nothing was left. They have to behave or get out. Simple as that.

Post by: missangelica on 2007 July 19, 23:01:10 That was a very interesting read, SJActress! Thanks for taking the time to post it. EA's idea for a shell CM account is a good idea in theory. I could only see it working if they took weren't allowed to interject a personality into the "character" and took a hands off approach but smite when needed like Pescado. A silent fist if you will.
