I just recently started playing on raidens board and I don't believe I have ever run into a sysop who cares more about his users...
I Never said he dosn't care about his users. He cares about them alot.. He cares about them so much he wont let there virgin eyes see swear words!
it's true his edits may be a bit behind, but he works a lot...
uh yeah... You're right he is just starting and I wish him the best of luck... Perhaps if he was going to run such a great BBS that he cares about so much, he should of learned how to edit first?
and I work 45-50 hrs too.. So?
But the good thing is he has put forth an effort
And I haven't?
All I have seen is someone who is childishly poking fun at an up and coming board. do you feel somewhat threatened?
You have poking fun mixed up with honest opinions. If I don't like the way you run your system, I'll probably tell you. Id sure hope youd try to work with me rather then become offended thinking im trying to trash your BBS...
Do I feel Threatened?! Sure I do.. Im threatened that good mmud users will be fooled into investing time and energy into a character that isn't nearly as fun. Why waste time, It's always the same end result..
I'm excited to see where your board is going to do, because i've heard alot about your editing. But as far as ops go... raiden has my vote. He's a great guy, and really cares about his players
Well go ahead and make your vote based on half the ballot... Whose to say I don't care about my users? I admit, I've been working way too much overtime lately.. Dosn't mean I don't give a damn.. I still put in as much free time as possible, and the BBS is still running and it will continue to.
Peace out.

How do you know? You never could get past level 50.
true, but that dont mean shit
Just giving my honest Opinion. The fact that I'm an op of my own system seems to make it worse. It's fine though.. You can call my opinion Useless, but maybe you should take it as constructive criticism (Kind of like I did..) Because afterall, What the fu
well, lookie here.... i am co-editor, mudop, and forumop of lunar dynamics.... now, no one cares if your the op of your system or about your opinions, but they do care about when you bash other boards that have been up for way longer than your mudrev (and you cant say that you havent, because i know a few people who would back me on that).... sure mudrev MIGHT someday be a great board, but to say that its one of the best RIGHT now in this day and age, is getting far more arrogant than someone thinking they are god.

Sure it does.. You know nothing about my BBS. Who are you to judge the quality of my BBS?
well, lookie here.... i am co-editor, mudop, and forumop of lunar dynamics....
This could be 1 reason why mine is better? :rolleyes:
now, no one cares if your the op of your system or about your opinions,
You're right. I don't know shit. I don't know how to create a userbase, or make this old beaten text-based fantasy game fun again. I don't know how to advertise, Hell, I'm not advertising right now.
but they do care about when you bash other boards that have been up for way longer than your mudrev
I'm not bashing 'classic' boards.. I love OMC, Morbid is Great, Lunar is Ok now that I know your Op.. Regardless, What does length of time have to do with anything? Does that mean the legit BBS that is 10 years old and has a 10-person userbase is awesome? Or are you trying to imply that they have put in much more work and effort then I have? How do you know? You haven't played my realm.. You download the database and count the numbers. It's not my fault I can work twice as fast as most people, and 10x as fast as Metro.
(and you cant say that you havent, because i know a few people who would back me on that)....
Sure, I've let a few Sysops know what I think...
sure mudrev MIGHT someday be a great board, but to say that its one of the best RIGHT now in this day and age, is getting far more arrogant than someone thinking they are god.
Show me something better and I will shut down MudRev.

thats easy, look at lunar dynamics (am speaking from experience there because i have only played at lunar after sampling other boards)
Invisigod - "Lunar Dynamics Online is wholy owned by the users for the users."
first off, you complain about how much work you put into mudrev and blah blah blah like the users are SUPPOSED to appreciate what you do.... ive been with lunar dynamics for almost a year now, and never not once has invisigod ever complained about doing too much work for lunar, if at all he wants to go up and above just for the users and they dont even know what he does or how much work he puts into lunar....
edit wise, i got nothing to say cause i havent played your realm inside out like how i have with lunar....
users, you have pvp and that generally attracts alot of troublemakers and people lookin for a fight.... lunar dynamics being a non-pvp realm has got so many people that want pvp and that wanna go at each others throat, yet they continue to play there and stray from other boards because everyone is like a family and we back each other up no matter what....
as for me, ask anyone on lunar about that... theyll tell you that not all is as it seems, and that some things are illusioned to create a masquerade for a reason....

You're still contradicting yourself, Miles.. You continually say you're not bashing, but then follow it up talking trash on a system or a particular person. The only reason I've any inclination to check out MR is because of the work I've heard Demostheses has done, curious to see the changes since MR opened. And you say you use criticism to spur on more effort - perhaps you should use the criticism you've read in this thread and stop being a prick and talking trash? I'm sure you'd receive more respect that you currently do. What's in the past doesn't always stay in the past, especially when you continually bring it up and repeat mistakes. Humility brings more rewards than ego.

I'm inclined to check out the quests that Gabriel has spent hour upon hour on as well. More credit should be given to some of the other editors :-p

Hahah.. hAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
No, I'm not laughing at the fact you want to see credit given to the other editors, rather at the fact that you think there would be room for anyone else to get any credit without being eternally damned for talking away Mr Hollywood's (aka Miles') precious public eye time.. I mean come on.. seriously.
I'm not going to argue semantics or be a pedant and pick Hollywood's arguments to peices, that's far too easy, and pointless. When an individual is as dead keen on themselves as Miles clearly is, no amount of logic or common sense can ever prevail. That ego is a wall of ignorant stupidity that will not move, not now, not ever. If the sky was green with yellow polka dots i'm sure Hollywood would call it "aqua with sunflare gold spots" and then find a way to rebut anything anyone ever had to say on the subject with little more than thinly veiled insults, ego boosting name dropping (his own name) and general GET YER HAND OFF IT wankery combined with a pretence of intelligence, skill etc.; etc.;
All arguments with Mr Hollywood are pointless, he will find a way, even if it involves use of the "is it black or white = YES" clause, then deny he ever did such a thing, call you a stupid twit, then deny he ever called you a stupid twit, remind you how AWESOME, TIRELESS, SMART and generally ACE he is, and how generally CRAP you are, then of course, deny ever having done so using condesending language and thinly veiled insults and so on... ad infinitum.
If the boards great.. :wordup: if its not :noway:
Regardless of all the free advertising Hollywood's general
(hollywood)
LOOK AT ME
LOOK AT ME
I AM MR HOLLYWOOD
IM COOL, NO REALLY, I AM!
YOUR NOT
I WONT ACTUALLY DIRECTLY SAY IT LIKE THIS, BUT THIS IS WHAT ITS ALLLLL ABOUT.. PERHAPS MY PARENTS NEVER LOVED ME, OR MAYBEE I LACK A DECENT SIZED APENDAGE, MAYBEE, I JUST WANT TO BE THE CENTRE OF THIS WORLD, YOUR WORLD, MY WORLD, THE WORLD, EVERY WORLD.. HI.. I AM GREAT.
etc etc etc. i bet this last bit will get the most mind numbing response of this entire post too. Ahh, sapa humanas, some of us are truly fine egocentric creatures.
(/hollywood)
may gain him and his wonderous vision of the new world order, one fact will still remain, people will always remember what a tosser you are. If you act the way you do here, in your day to day life, i hope to hell you have a decent medical insurance policy.. you will need it.. more than once i dare say as such self indulgence is never usually loosed by a single beating or life threatening incident.
And that is my $345.70 cents worth.
And yes, i did play mudrev, and yes, i did get to a decent level. that old "you dont knoww ner ner ner". feel free to hit me with the "not in the last 1.2 hours though and SOOOOOOOO much has changed.. SERIOUSLY MAN.. I AM ROCK HARD, AGAIN, DAMN MIRRORS."

for your information, i specifically told him i didn't give a shit about getting credit on here, or anywhere else really. nice job assuming tho :p and though i do appreciate the intentions, i'd appreciate it more if people played the game and stopped arguing about the way miles advertises, especially by throwing my name around in whatever way. and god dammit people, it's DEMOSTHENES, unless you just want to call me gab/ast like everyone else does :p
