So... if I'm correct... You'll never be satisfied, and you're blinded by your own ignorance. I totally disagree Mike. In my view, it's actually your own ignorance, your lack of respect for me (which I'm not saying is completely unwarranted.), along with your friendship with Sandmen in that you'll jump to his defense any and every time that he has an argument with me, that is in fact blinding you sir. While your numbers for the posts vs. simming, etc. appear more or less accurate, where you are 100% incorrect is: 1) When I was receiving points for "special tasks" when I was at 1 point/50posts, the only tasks I was getting points over only 4 seasons was: 1 point for updating the Fight History & 1 point for updating the Points thread; totaling only 8 points over those 4 seasons, and even though the added duties of updating N1C Thread & the FiD threads were towards the end of that time, I still only received 2 points. And for the record, I also never once did I receive any points for the Team banners and I wasn't always posting updated on the threads I was tasked with at that time either. That's it. 2) Near the end of the 4th season, it was proposed by Sandmen that I become full staff; this was before simming the ML. I was initially raised to 100 posts whereas you were dropped to 50 posts while you were still allegedly simming the ML; pretty much mid-season you received this decrease no less. I also started that season receiving no points for doing any of those tasks I was doing before that I was still doing, minus the Fight History, but I noticed early on that my post rate with my new position did not go up to fall in line with the 100 posts per point this new increase brought. Not that I expected it to be exactly the same as it was cuz there's no way it would be, but I didn't have enough of a workload or site related post load at that time to facilitate the 100 posts increase. So what Sandman and I decided was that we'd bump it down to 75 points, but I'd get 2 points for 150 for that season and we'd bump it up the next season if we needed to as my workload and post load increased. The 150 proved to be to long of a time so we made it the 75 posts for point because I was still getting way to many fighters hitting the danger list at that time to be waiting for the full 150 for 2 points. I was also at that point that Sandmen got me to start posting "updated" every time I updated something so that the post load proportioned the increase a bit better when previously it wasn't required and so I wasn't floundering with my team trying to upkeep/save my not-so-top-tier fighters on my team at that time. That only translated to about 4 site related posts/per day, on average so it was virtually like I was posting 1.5 cards per week which balanced out the increase. The problem at that time was that I was already seeing the writing on the wall that Sandmen had no real intention and no real thought in his mind that I was actually staff at all and had just given me the "position" as an attempt at a control mechanism and not really a position at all and had told I would quit then aswell if conditions didn't change. It was at this time that he first came up with the idea "you quit, you stay at 75 points til the end of the season" schtick, yet he'd allowed you to decrease mid-season the previous season while still simming the ML. 3) Our squabble over the ML ended and I was to be taking over the simming of the ML. Sandmen instantly wanted me to bump up to 100 posts mid-season when we were only about 10 events left in the season, but I maintained that since he'd have made me stay at 75 posts to the end of the season if I'd stepped down, then we'd wait until the end of the current season then raise my post count to 100. He'd hear none of it, even though he'd allowed you to sim nearly 2 seasons of ML at 50 posts per point, yet apparently I wasn't able to sim the ML for what amounted to less than half a ManMMA season at 75 posts per point, but when I again said "Fine, no problem. I'll just step down as staff so there's no conflict." It was then he re-iterated his schtick about staying at 75 posts per point til the end of the season, if I stepped down. We argued. He got me to post a poll about it, again, knowing full well that me posting it would make it sound like I was bitching and complaining and that folks would vote to raise my post count to 100, mostly because of my "reputation" on the site and not necessarily because of whether it was fair or right. I explained it the best I could without trying to sound like that, but once again, no matter what I say or do, folks think I'm JUST bitching and complaining when the reality is, I was being bullied. 4) Which brings us to this point now, where I have now in fact stepped down because I couldn't put up with his shit anymore as a "staff member" because being a "staff member" was no different than it was before I accepted the "position", and now he's trying to pull this shit again where I have to remain at 75 posts to the end of the season, but you, yourself RocketMen, did not. It doesn't matter how close to the end of the season we are now, I had stepped down like 2 cards ago. But the fact is that it's this kind of bullshit he pulls constantly that drove me to step down in the first place and I'm not going to put up with it anymore. You folks really do need to know that there's a real reason why it seems like I'm "constantly bitching" about one thing or another, cuz normally, I'm not an angry person at all, really. I'll admit that I am a bit of a lawyer-type when it comes to debates and certain things which has probably led to the perception of being a "whiny bitch" around but if I see something wrong, someone else is being done wrong or I feel I'm being done wrong, why should I just sit quietly and allow it to happen? I wouldn't feel right about that at all. |

You were not berated, in fact I have about 10 PMs from you calling me all kinds of names just because I asked you to update a thread. I can post them publicly if you want. As for your point claim issue, you were staff this season, you are at 100 posts per point this season. Simple. That doesn't change just because you stopped doing your duties man. We discussed that at length before. Resolved. No, nothing is resolved. I was berated and bullied nearly the entire time, so it's little wonder I called you an asshole and a jerk, etc. And, I'm sorry to tell you that it sure does change. Especially when it went up immediately mid-season one way, it sure as hell better go down just as immediately the other. That's the only fair and right way to do it because if it works one way, it should be working exactly the same way in the opposite direction. Period. Read above; though I doubt you will cuz anytime I tell the truth about you around here, you'll turn it into me "bitching" somehow.... But you know what? Maybe I am bitching... I have reach a point where I'm not going to be putting up with your shit, your bullying and your lies anymore Justin. Atleast if folks actually read what the truth is from my end of things, they'll finally see that there's been an actual reason for all of this, and that haven't just blowing hot air for the sake of it. |

By no definition of berated were you berated for any of your tasks related to the site. Look that up, then try to find the word for what you think you are accusing me of, because if you look up berated, you will know I have never berated you for that. I did, however, berate you for bitching at Mike for not simming when his grandmother was sick, and I did berate you for "Fuck you"ing me when I had to alter simming for a funeral.
RE: the jobs you only did sometimes, I did, however, ask you to do them politely that were 10 days to a month behind...then you got mad and said you were not doing them and quitting. Then you did them. Then you didn't, and got mad and threatened to quit. Rinse, repeat, then replaced. Now the cycle is over and its resolved.

Then you did them. Then you didn't, and got mad and threatened to quit. Rinse, repeat, then replaced. Now the cycle is over and its resolved You obviously don't know the meaning of the word resolved because if this were really resolved, then there would be no issue on my end either and we wouldn't be arguing at all... yet here are. And I was berated... even when I was doing my tasks, I was being berated for responding to people that were being jerks to me and also when they disrespecting the station of which I was supposedly charged. Yet you chose to side with most of those folks and chime right in cuz you never had any respect for me or the deal we'd entered into. The fact that I was calling you an asshole should've been a clue "Gee, I wonder why he's talking about stepping down? Maybe I am acting like an asshole.", but no... you believe you're omnipotent in all situations and you don't think have to have any regard for anything or anyone else unless it suits you or your own purposes, even those you're supposedly partnered with and working with, as I so unceremoniously found out, unfortunately too late. Do you honestly think I'm not seeing a rinse/repeat cycle with your actions aswell?  Are you that naive or that ignorant? But go ahead and say it's an "I know you are but what am I" thing... it doesn't make it any less true. Now, you did berate me at the time for the "Fuck You" though, because you ASSUMED that I meant it was because you were going to a funeral; a funeral that I'd completely forgotten about, and I even apologized for it seeming like that was the case... Yet here you are bringing it up again. But you actually didn't berate me for the Mike thing... you informed me after that situation go to a heated level; up to that point I didn't know about Mike's grandmother. Again, something I've apologized for. Rinse/Repeat; Rinse/Repeat. |

I am not arguing, you are. Therefore, the issue seems to be you.
Anything other than your arguing in general IS resolved, and is a complete waste of time to complain about, debate, or bicker over.

Tbh this whole thing is stupid. I understand where both sides are coming from but Kruze reaching 100 posts is not even that big of a obstacle for you. You are easily the most active member other than Sandmen who is the admin. I feel that this issue is somewhat similar to that rematch you wanted earlier in the season. Sandmen has to keep the league in order if he doesn't then this site will turn into WCW in the sense people will do whatever they wish at will. Like demand a rematch for a stupid reason and get it  . We don't need this turning into gong show lol . Any sim league Kruze has held an admin role has ended dying . I believe Sandmen when he says Kruze would not complete tasks for almost 4 weeks. I've seen it happen in a league where he was a simmer at one point. Then he would bitch at the members for bitching at him for not simming for a month. Which is uncalled for since you bitched at Mike for not simming . Point being maybe it's best your not part of staff here. Sandmen can not let it slide because honestly ,what you makes you any different from any member in the league and this would make being a staff member look irrelevant . If your attitude was better and you actually fulfilled your tasks on time then this wouldn't be an issue. Let me remind you that you are the one that quit staff so why would Sandmen give you a severance package. Especially after all the name calling and insults you threw at him. |

Agreed. Also, I didn't bother reading things that were longer than the Bible.
