Insim under new management!

[Anouk]

Nouk, the moral authority schtick of yours is getting mighty old.

Oh screw off. I happen to like both these people and they keep going at it for some reason. I'd liek to know wtf is going on.

If you are so concerned, you should of PMed her about it.  Don't expect attacking Calalily out in the open when you don't know what's going on will be accepted.

From you? And who are you to talk for Calalily? Will you get out of her pants?
Calalily is very open about any discussion about ethics or anything else, so I do not believe this is a problem for her, and I don't need you to dictate anything I say. Back off.

ETA:  And it doesn't help that you act so high and mighty at the same time while doing so.

Give me some quotes to prove this statement and in this context concerning Calalily and Paden. Otherwise, if the quotes have nothing to do with this situation, you're just starting shit over nothing.

If I am being overly agressive with someone on this site right now then I apologize, but I do not recall going crazy on anyone who didn't absolutely try to go all out to annoy the crap out of me.

[Paden]

I stayed 30 seconds, changed nothing, left. I wanted to get information for the pirates about what the weasel had said, truth to be told and found it had already been gotten. Thanks for the vote of trust, guys.

I think if Walt posted a response finally to the staff (in the staff area) then someone did need to go over there and read it.  How else are we supposed to know where things stand now from the Walt side of things.  If everyone else stayed away then it shouldnt be that terrible if one staff member goes over to check in on the only communication from this guy in 4 dyas or so.  Everyone seems to need to chill.

• This thread was a good reminder to not piss off Neriana.

Apparently it wasn't really, because now there are like 5 people pissing me off. Do we need to bring that stupid hannahopie back to tear strips out of? Because when people I like start ripping into each other seemingly out of nowhere, it makes me VERY UNHAPPY.

Paden, I do wish you'd start quoting what you were responding to, it does get confusing. I can see why the staff at Insim might feel they need to see what Walt said. I can also see why they, like the rest of us, shouldn't go there anyway. I can't seem to get worked up about it though. Perhaps I am distracted by the streaking.

Are the exmods of InSIM that organised? Have they banded together somewhere? I am guess YES to those questions, via Oasis. If that is the case, they should nominate one, and declare all news there, I am sure Paden will let us know when Walt finally says something. Either from her directly or from the nominated mod.

This is going to take a LONG time, so I am off to make a weekly menu and grocery shopping. Yay. See you guys!

[Sherry]

I know, but I think Cala has a point, even if she went all fuckity fuck fuck with it.  We've pretty much been bashing members who know less for going on insim, then to turn around and see that people who should know better are checking.  Walt and his comments can wait until Pescado is done can't they?  If not perhaps designate one person to do the checking.  

Edit: seems deelink and I share a brain. 

[calalily]

She got what she deserved: A swift ban from the site owner.

Who are you talking about? Your quote says:

Sorry, guys, had to read that shit and hop the hell off so I didn't bugger up the efforts. I needed to know what it said, otherwise I would have stayed the hell out. I will get a quote when/if I can.

Was it you going on today, or are you referring to the linked post made a day or so ago before Pescado's backup of Insim (by caffeinated.joy)?

I've noticed for a short while that you react pretty agressively towards Paden, moreso than with others that make mistakes.  Howcome you're you're treating her to a load of 'fucking this and fucking that' when you treat others who make mistakes with the normal Calalily behaviour? Or am I imagining things?

I don't think it's actually aggressiveness towards Paden in particular, other than she posts here more than other newcomers do.  

In this case, it's well reasoned out.  

1. She has yelled at others for not being helpful to the cause - about 40 pages back or so - telling them that they were hurting the Insimenator forum by having a fight here (which is normal PMBD behaviour no matter what Insimenator is doing right now). I jumped on her about that, as I don't think Insimenator suddenly rules the day here.  

Right here:

(This is directed towards Freeshitonly and NotApsalar) BOTH of you shut the hell up because you sound like a couple of six year olds screaming about a goddamn toy! You are not helping the situation at ALL. If Pescado uses SMF, I can help the rest of the staff learn it, it's not that ruddy hard! Would you please save it until it's all a done deal! CHRIST!

2. She's been telling other people not to go onto the site, and saying how wonderfully she's doing not going onto the site:

Some of us had the good sense to stay the hell out of the way. Some did not. Others just did not know.

3. And then this:

Sorry, guys, had to read that shit and hop the hell off so I didn't bugger up the efforts. I needed to know what it said, otherwise I would have stayed the hell out. I will get a quote when/if I can.

4. Most ironically, this:

You've made clear that you're a little twit with delusions of being holier than thou.

Now, if she went onto that site, then why the hell is she giving orders, having contempt for "12s" when she can do no better than them herself.  And why should I resist gawking, or anyone else, if we can - it's not my home. My home is here and Sublime - I don't really need to stay off Insimenator, do I, and why should everyone else stay off Insimenator if the people who keep going on about how we should bear with them in this important endeavour to save their homes can't control themselves in order to stay off?

Nouk, the moral authority schtick of yours is getting mighty old.

I would expect no less of her, and like her because of this.  I like that she's unafraid to ask questions about whether or not my anger is fair and righteous, or petty and personal. It doesn't mean she hates me.  

Cala, please, can you just chill out ... we know to stay away, but something important is happening and we need to know what

Paden's not the only one who's there ... go curse at all the other's as well

and yeah ... curse at me coz I'm there too, briefly so we can see what's happening

Oh well then, I'll just chill the fuck out and go on Insimenator myself. What the fuck is wrong with you people - you cheer Pescado when it's all going well, and like tiny babies you can't wait two fucking seconds to watch the train wreck happening.  I have files in my hoard of over 30 Gb to help restore the forum to it's former state, but I'll be damn well buggered if I help you when you can't even help yourselves.

Come ON! God, I really hate this, but why let us shout at the n00bs for something you're doing yourselves? I understand it's hard, but damn! People are looking at you for guidance. Lead by example, ex-mods!

But apparently they can't, can they? So why are we being so nice about it and lamenting the loss of something they don't even care about?  

If you are so concerned, you should of PMed her about it.  Don't expect attacking Calalily out in the open when you don't know what's going on will be accepted.

Shit - if every time I pressed the preview 7 posts come up, I would be replying already. Next time I'm posting and editing.  

I stayed 30 seconds, changed nothing, left. I wanted to get information for the pirates about what the weasel had said, truth to be told and found it had already been gotten. Thanks for the vote of trust, guys.

You know the stupid thing - I thought of all the people you would not be silly enough to go there.  After all the yelling, I trusted you to control yourself - but you couldn't even do that, could you.  30 seconds is 30 seconds too long. Not to mention, for all that, you just brought back nebulous "it's bad" while suggesting that others would be interested. Smart. 


Edited to add:

I know, but I think Cala has a point, even if she went all fuckity fuck fuck with it. 

I always fuckity fuck fuck - search the word fuck on the forum, I come up 4 times in the first page. I like the swearing.

And what did he say?  Did someone post a quote already?

[Anouk]

Oh, paden shouldn't have gone, that's not the issue. I think Calalily is being angry on more occasions than just this one. That's why I asked.
*Edit: Looks like she's clarified. And see, Missangelica? No feelings of insult, no anger, no nothing. There is no need to protect Calalily, she has an axe the size of Europe anyway.
Calalily: Thanks for clarifying. I do think though that between those posts and just now, the situation has changed, some things have been discussed on Oasis, and the admins needed to know what Walt was saying. It does slow shit down, but maybe it has been worth it. Also someone is taking screenshots, so no more than one person will have to go.

[Lilyroseisapirate]

Likes what Calalily has to say.

[Ali]

for those of you who are interested, and I do believe that you all have a vested interest in this, this is what Walt had to say

Whilst there, I was also looking for some way to try and block access but I couldn't find a way

eta ... changed the links

[Sigmund]

I skimmed these quickly since I'm supposed to be working on a paper, but I did notice that he mentioned Insim, but not Insim adult. Is anyone clear on whether or not he's still considering making it pay? I never went there, but it's the principle of the thing, dammit.

ETA: Never mind. I reread the thing, and he claims he's not considering making either pay. That's what I get for multi-tasking.

[Paden]

THAT was why I went, for the info that eledhel linked to. I thought you guys had a right to it. Flame me if you must. I thought it important that you all have it, for what it's worth.

[neriana]

Looks like Walt's not making it pay, but he does want it to make him money with as little work as possible on his part. He wants the staff to run it and make money for him, without paying them. I don't think he understands the kind of site he bought.

[dollface]

What the hell is a 'professional server team'?
