Ah okay.

I just like what works, Birdie. It's not broke so don't fix it? I'm a conservative as far as that goes.

Please tell me exactly what words I used to you that were rude in response to your request so that I can apologize for them.

Starrazz is the new and improved BAIDS

Agree with most of this. But like my main point is that even if starrazz screwed up, which to me went totally unnoticed the entire game, banning him from modding is just somthing of a revenge and a total overreaction.

If he his a bad mod, his games wouldnt fill, they do. When they no longer dont I will agree, and not even then will a ban from modding be necesarry.

As for vids, I think its a fun thing, I dont think they bring anything of value other then for spicey affect. I still dont want them banned and i dont see why you would need to restrict them in anyway because that will take care of itself, no one wants people to post 60min vids,

Like in my mind people in the game will "force" people to post content that is comprihensible.

What does BAIDS mean?

This happened as late as in December.
If you want the full story, I'll PM you.

It obvious didn't happened against me.

it is somebody on this forum
Who caused mayhem in POG with this thread

It's not about starrazz at all. It's about videos. That video discussion thread was started by traz about LuckayLuck, and no one can say Luckay is unpopular on this site. Last time someone wanted to post videos in a game I was modding (Luckay, again) I said the exact same things as this time.

I really don't understand people claiming they don't get extra information out of videos, from tone of voice and body language. I think some of it is that people not caring about game balance since they mostly rand villa, so pro-villa things are good. Or they just don't think or care at all.

This kinda makes my point since there was no rulechange last time but now there will be, ergo starazz gets treated differently.

There was no rulechange. There was an agreement that we wouldn't post videos any more.

That's not really their position. I'd hope he learned from the experience, at the very least.

Well, I hope you'll enjoy my blog.

Thank you, I think, but I was just trying to stay alive D1 :-) I am still a rookie around here.

There is a reason he has not responded to my request. I'll let you all figure it out.

QFT

I don't even understand what Andy is saying here

I think the reason that this time there is a rule change (as opposed to a consensus rule last time that we'd just stop posting videos) is mostly because there is a much larger player pool in POG now compared to 09/10. Lots of active players aren't going to have read this thread, so putting it in the OP is better.

The rule doesn't actually exclude people from posting video ever. It just is up to the Game Mod, with the default setting being "no".

[personal attack redacted] and don't see why I should indulge you?

I disagree that that's why. I think there was no rule change last time because most people knew, after the discussion, that it was at best a gray area, and the person who sparked the discussion, Luckay, wanted not to cause problems. So the discussion itself served to curb any problems.

This time around the person who inspired the discussion seems to want not to adhere to consensus and avoid problems, but the opposite, while obeying any explicit rules that are laid down. And because he will be limited only by a rule, there has to be a rule.

The end result may be best for a large player pool, but it seems clear from the last few days' discussion that any rule that gets laid down will really be there only to control a single player, because he's made clear that only an explicit rule will do it.

lol reading antigay into biridie's post

lol no rulechange

the rulechange is fine but you are hilarious

no. the current system gives each mod a monopoly over signups for games starting on a particular date, so players can't pick and choose which mod's game they want to join. they are stuck with whoever has the day. their only choice is to play with a mod they don't like or not play at all. that choice doesn't support your argument.

If there were alternative games they could sign up for, in that case you would have a valid point. But with the current monopoly system, no. players joining his games only show that his games are better than not playing at all - not that they are better than any other game that they would rather play.

the current system also allows mods to exclude whomever they want for whatever reason they want for games starting on a particular date

that's the system bro. deal with it

im fine with these rules but i hate them all.

if this is directed at me, i dont think you read my post in context of the quote.

video killed the radio star

has anyone posted that yet?
