• DarksydePhil's (DSPGaming) Entire Moderator Team Quit
    201 replies, posted
[quote]We (the forum staff) provide a vital service to this community out of good will. We spend our own free time (that could be spent doing more enjoyable things) moderating and administrating a website that is slowly but surely dying because DarksydePhil is stifling any kind of creative expression that does not shine a glowing light on him. Recently, there was a thread created that raised grievances regarding a certain moderator of DSP's stream, and their actions in the chat. Within 2 hours we saw the largest gathering on the website since the last major giveaway, and this is for one main reason: because those people had a point. Unfortunately that thread was closed as soon as DSP caught wind of it and the other moderators in the stream chat were regarded as ‘doing nothing’. We do not think this is acceptable. These people provide a vital service to your ‘business’ and you simply insult them as a way to weasel out of a difficult situation, something which we find completely unfair. It is for these main reasons that we as a collective moderating and administrative team are standing down from the forum for the foreseeable future. People may think that running a website under such circumstances is easy. Let me assure you that it is not. It takes a lot of hours and dedication to make sure that the rules are not broken and that there is a fair base for users to discuss topics which they find interesting, as well as assisting people who have queries about DSP and his content. On top of this there is the ever growing and persisting issue of threads which DarksydePhil does not deem worthy to stay open, but the rest of the staff have no issue with. There have been numerous occasions in which DSP has shut down a perfectly decent conversation because he feels that there are ’too many haters in it’ even if it is just his fans voicing their completely honest and perfectly reasonable opinions.[/quote] The end has been coming for a long time and this is the beginning. His views are dwindling, fans are leaving and it's all his fault.

That took long enough.
Just to emphasise, this is literally signed by every single moderator and admin that's involved in running his website and Twitch channel.
Hey, raise your hands if you're suprised [t]http://cdn.business2community.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/bored-and-not-engaged-people-e1366103017478.jpg[/t] oh... none of you care seriously though DSP is funny because he's the bottom of the barrel and that is it what is he going to do without his gaming money? all he does is roll off the couch and wipe off the cheetos, turn the xbox off, then makes breakfast, and goes back to playing.
I only heard about this Darksyde guy recently.
"Wow! my whole moderating team left, it clearly can't be my fault!" I can't wait for his response.
The 10 times a day trainwreck continues
The forum's bugged. it's not his fault.
The moderator team is leaving, how is this possible? What the hell god, you didn't tell me how to not make them leave! This is impossible, I am pressing the left trigger, the right trigger, all the triggers! IT DOESNT WORK! Life is a shitty game made by a shitty developer!
I bet you it was all Kojima's doing.
Can someone give me a quick rundown on who is/what did DSP do exactly that caused all this drama?

"Woooooooooooooow"
[QUOTE=TheNerdPest14;46166452]I only heard about this Darksyde guy recently.[/QUOTE] Lucky you. I'm honestly surprised something like this hasn't happened sooner and the fact that he's made it this far, it's mind-boggling.

Most commentators have at least a decent idea of what they're doing, but DSP is just a fucking idiot and he is rude to his viewers.

[QUOTE=carcarcargo;46166557]I find it pretty funny tbh[/QUOTE] In all honesty, people that make a living over bullshit should just fuck off, it's an insult to anyone that actually does anything meaningful or productive or works to make a living, as opposed to getting paid for acting like a dumbass and basically doing nothing. With that said, I don't find this kind of shit funny, it's just pathetic.
[QUOTE=joshuadim;46166518]Can someone give me a quick rundown on who is/what did DSP do exactly that caused all this drama?[/QUOTE] His child girlfriend "Pandalee" completely abused her mod privileges in Twitch chat yesterday and people were constructively complaining about it on the forums saying that her privileges should be removed. His reply was literally "yeah, nobody cares" he then proceeded to lock the thread despite it being the most popular thread on the forums for several months. He then went on to blast his entire moderator team saying that they were basically useless and never showed up or did anything to help. A combination of his attitude and personal insults lead to everyone quitting this afternoon.
Thanks for clearing it up

DSP provided a service or product of entertainment and now that well is running dry, as his product is no longer desirable and his attitude has accelerated that decay.

He's in twitch chat now, said he's making a public response.
