Okay, so I hate to say it, but yes, the end is now here. And no, I do not mean the end of ManMMA. This site will be here til I die. I am talking about the end of bullshit. I ran this site as a democracy for 2 years, and it just eroded and turned into a mess. So now, it's dictator time. I am completely done with all of the bullshit. By which, I mean shit like this. A special rule was modified slightly based on in-simulator complications, and a shit-fit ensued, with baseless tag-team accusations of corruption. This stops now. If you decide to pollute the site with bullshit, you will be given an on-side request to stop, drop it, or let it go. If you do not, you will be given a permanent strike. If you continue, or do the same thing again, you will be banned, and your team will be dispersed. Period. Are we crystal fucking clear on this? 1 warning, then 1 strike, then YOU ARE GONE. Let the bitching begin, because this is probably the last thread I will be putting up with mindless complaining about how I run this site. |

Q&A Time.
1) But Justin, what if we don't like something? Does this mean we can never express our disagreement?
Not at all. That is what the suggestion box is for. If you have a problem, and a suggested solution to that problem, I welcome and encourage it. If it cannot work, though, I do not expect to have 4 months of complaining in the suggestion box if your suggestion fails. Know when it's time to move on to a new suggestion and begin the process again.
2) Justin, why the bold in the original post?
So people would read it.
3) Then why the mass-PM?
So people would read it. The biggest recurring problem related to this ongoing issue is people not reading old rules on the site.
4) Can I continue to bitch at you privately, through hundreds and hundreds of time-wasting PMs?
Sure, go nuts.
5) Will I get a strike if I do rage-PM you?
No.
6) Then what is with this dictator-rule above if we can still bitch?
It's all about stopping site-pollution.
7) What if we think you make special rules on a whim just to hurt individuals?
That has never happened, and never will happen. But if you think that, PM me. We'll discuss it. If I had a problem with an individual, I would just remove them from the site. As you can see, that has not happened to this point in the site's history.
8) Justin, this isn't related to anything, but I have the program, and when I sim, _____ is different.
Oh. That is to be expected because, as I said many times before, the program has been customized so that people cannot download it and cheat in order to successfully predict fight results.
9) Do you cheat?
No. What fun would kicking all your asses be if I cheated in doing it? That would be like tying your dog to a pole and racing him across the street.
10) Sorry we upset you.
You did not upset me, but you are forgiven none the less.
11) So why does the on-site pollution matter so much? Why can't we just let the site deteriorate into a clusterfuck of wretched chaos?
Well, aside from the obvious, the biggest problem is it takes time away from simming. Today, for example, I had planned on simming. But given the chaos that ensued from a rule that affected no one, I had some behind the scenes crap to deal with that affected my simming window. When things affect the site's functionality and simming schedule, it's a problem for everyone.

it's been a dictatorship long before this announcement tho.. Funny you should say that, since the last suggestion you made, we implemented and it has had Phoenix filling my inbox with rage-mail for about 2 weeks. Dictatorships don't listen to suggestions. Yours was listened to. Also your suggestion to start up ML again, we did that. And so on... |

Cannon and Phoenix Logic. If we don't get it our way ... It's dictatorship !! thaha when rules are updated specifically for you than that it dicatorship i'm just the little guy like ukraine not the power house russian justin is I like that the best way for you and Kruze to try and be clever is to think of a random current topic (Rob Ford, Russia-Ukraine Crisis) then pretend that someone here applies to that. So, by that logic, Kruze has suggested that Justin is an overweight crack addict who enjoys getting all sorts of fucked up and embarrassing himself and the public who stood behind him on the global scale. Cannon insists that he is part of a country that does not believe in peaceful protests (Ukraine) thus making himself part of a genocidal community, and that in return Justin is a much strong country that sees this sort of impact close to home and wants to control it, something NATO doesn't agree with. This all because he changed a few rules on a sim site. I hope you see how delusional and ridiculous you two are. Its constant, and I blame lack of intelligence and social ineptness on your issues. If you don't understand what I just said, I am calling you two a couple of dolts who enjoy going two knuckles deep on each others outlandish opinions. |

NATO ? But you can't compare this to a real life world event that could possibly restart the Cold War. |
