lazy adminstrators here

mikeup66 · 04-12-2008, 09:17 AM

The administrators here are a bunch of lazy slackers. I've been a member of this site for 2 years now, and ever since the site went down I haven't been able to post messages. I've been sending them messages ever since, and I haven't even gotten a reply. I finally had to register another account.

You guys should be a lot more attentive to your members! I've lost buyers for some fish of mine that I had lined up. Thanks a lot!

**TheOldSalt** · 04-12-2008, 10:21 AM

You're welcome.

Hmm.. let me take a wild guess and assume that since you couldn't post messages here, you probably also couldn't get messages through to anyone. I'm also going to assume that the fault wasn't ours since nobody else seemed to have had that problem. ( or has at least complained about one )

What was your old name? We can probably fix it.

Oh, wait..nevermind; we're lazy slackers, so maybe we won't.

mikeup, they are trying to get the site up and running better. lets see you try to do it. its a hard thing to do when your already exhausted from work or school. i'm sorry if you lost a few sales, but crap happens to everybody.

so lay of the admins man

mikeup66 · 04-12-2008, 10:38 AM

Wow, I finally got a response.

Okay, so maybe that was a little harsh. I was just very frustrated. Sorry admins. And we're all exhausted from school, work, everyday life.

Salty....thanks for your smart ass response. I'm not going to assume anything about messages getting through. And I guess I don't need you to fix my old account because I obviously have a new one. Are you even an administrator? So you can continue to be a lazy slacker for all I care.

**TheOldSalt** · 04-12-2008, 10:47 AM

Yeah, and you can continue to be unable to post. Bye-bye. See you in a month.
( try another new name and your ISP will get blocked )

This made my day! Thanks guys!

**TheOldSalt** · 04-12-2008, 01:01 PM

*sigh*

tsk,tsk....

Mr. Upchurch, did you really think that I wouldn't notice you trying to get around your ban with yet another new name?

Your IP shall now be blocked.

karazy · 04-12-2008, 09:35 PM

the old salt rules! he's pretty bad ass!

Ricker · 04-12-2008, 09:38 PM

Ya he is I really never talked to him but I've seen his post lol

**SueM** · 04-13-2008, 03:56 AM

Apparently they didn't get through. How was I to know? Maybe the 'contact us' link at the bottom of the page doesn't work. You ought to think about having someone test it.

Anyway, maybe you all missed my apology in my second post. Check it out. Says clear as day "sorry admins" . Like I said, I was frustrated and it was a dumb thing to say.

Of course, I had no way of knowing salty was an admin because it does not say that under his name. Don't you think a lifetime ban is a bit harsh, just for one stupid post? You've never said anything stupid before? I even sent you guys an apology (through the 'contact us' link because that's all I could access), but I'm sure that didn't get there either.

So, I'm sorry Salty - I humbly apologize.

**TheOldSalt** · 04-13-2008, 10:16 AM

Never mess with someone with the title of "Darth."

Those who deliberately attempt to annoy me invariably succeed.

I have your new IP address, ready to block. I suppose now I won't block it after all.

Change your name to something else. If you don't know how, let us know what new name you want.

karazy · 04-13-2008, 10:34 AM

thats right TOS, ur keeping everyone in line

**TheOldSalt** · 04-13-2008, 10:46 AM

Quit sucking up.

karazy · 04-13-2008, 10:48 AM

im not sucking up, im just saying....

emc7 · 04-13-2008, 11:04 AM

Never trash the admins. What was he thinking. It isn't like we are paying for this and can threaten to take our business elsewhere. Why are people so ungrateful.

Many thanks to all of you that keep this site up for all you time and effort. I enjoy the site and am glad it's here.

Hint for future reference for anyone who may read this:
Admins have different colored nicknames: Blue, Green, Yellow. All you have to do in order to get through to an admin is look through the member list until you find a pretty color. Then E-mail that person directly. This is how I got on to the site in the first place (Thanks Sue) when it was not letting me register. I figured this out as an observer without being on the site for years under some other nick. It's not really all that tricky.

Even if someone is not an admin, you should be nice to them. If that person is not nice to you then you get to make a choice: Stoop to that level, or not. At some point most people will stoop to that level, and I know I have done it myself. I also know that when I have done this I have made myself look like an idiot, not the other person. That helps me remember why I don't want to stoop. Besides, it makes the back hurt after a while.
