[QUOTE=Kai-ryuu;28315673]Benji is in non-steam game Bulletstorm I guess playing video games is more important than trying to defend himself against serious accusations and facts!![/QUOTE] no big whoop just play some pirated bulletstorm like a pro
[QUOTE=compwhizii;28315398]Some PMs, Not really something I understand well enough to give an answer to at 2am (I could theorize but I really don't want to), very sorry. Facepunch becomes bankrupt? Facepunch is a site run by Facepunch Studios, and I don't have control of what happens inside the company too much. Maybe you could try and rephrase that question? [b]I will not moderate at all for the next year with the exception of compromised moderators, advertising spam bots, or forum exploit attempts[/b] If I do moderate, I will be stripped of administrative rights.[/QUOTE] Thank you, thats a start
[QUOTE=Esteam;28315689]whats point a now?[/QUOTE] Why Benji is even still around.
[QUOTE=GhostSonic;28315649]I noticed a lot of people with the FP logo wearing a crown on it's head last topic. Any reason for this?[/QUOTE] [url]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/972130-Avatar-Requests-V4?p=28266071&viewfull=1#post28266071[/url] none, really
[QUOTE=FoxMeister;28315679]I thought that was point A[/QUOTE] idk compwhizii managed to make everyone focus on him while he took an hour to write a paragraph obviously the point was to take the heat off benji
[QUOTE=TH89;28315550]Starpluck messaged me in January making some weird vague threats about how he had connections and could get me demodded, I got annoyed and was like "what the hell are you talking about" and he was like "heh heh heh" so I told Hezzy on him and Hezzy said to ban him. I went back and tried to use the threat of a ban as leverage to get him to explain what the hell he was talking about, he said he was going to try to pay Garry to demod me. If he says it was a joke, it could have been, I hope starpluck doesn't mind me saying he's a weird-ass dude :v:[/QUOTE] he sent me a message a while ago saying "i follow your footsteps", not really sure what he meant by that :S
[QUOTE=Kai-ryuu;28315673]Benji is in non-steam game Bulletstorm I guess playing video games is more important than trying to defend himself against serious accusations and facts!![/QUOTE] I let you use that acc to like make good posts just dont do anything stupid okay
[QUOTE=angelangel;28315691]no big whoop just play some pirated bulletstorm like a pro[/QUOTE] since when does non-steam automatically mean pirated you dingus
[QUOTE=FunkyDisko77;28315605]Looks like it's Dragon's turn at the interview table[/QUOTE] these interviews are the best things in the thread except compwhizii stopping moderating It seems we actually got something of what we wanted?
[QUOTE=Espio;28315267][h2]venn17 Silent banned because someone called you in the night and said the first username they saw when you asked who it was[/h2] Explain that shit.[/QUOTE] Did you read the other bits I posted about that? [QUOTE=BigHeaded B;28315382]Dear compwhizii i have an "official question" What do you think it is about you that leads benji to be so attracted to you?[/QUOTE] that's not a relevant (or even factual) question. But if you must know it I think it's my greasiness. [QUOTE=That___Guy;28315384]Id like to ask, why are you moderating the forums but not fixing the problems it has, and improving upon it? Isn't that what you are being payed to do? There has to be a way to fix the "ghost page" bug, and the only difference I have noticed in a while is that extra sized font. Also why won't you go on a date with Jimbomcb?[/QUOTE] I think you're misunderstanding, I'm not spending hours a day looking for people to ban. Previously if I would encounter a problem thread or post on a normal browsing session I would take care of it. Is for me fixing things, there's a bit of disappointment in myself here. Along with the forum code I'm also responsible for maintaining the servers and working on a new web service for FPS. As a full time high school student I have trouble getting time to do all of this, so things like the double posting and ghost page bug would take ages for me to fix them. And if someone is about to point out that I do other things in my spare time, let me remind you that I am no machine. I need breaks from work, just like any of you. Even when I do have time to spare, it's also spent on keeping the site alive. Remember when reedit and many other sites found out that wee had Crysis 2 info? I was up all night making sure the site stayed stable, and deployed additional hardware that garry didn't want so you guys would have a good experience. Additionally, I'd like to take a moment to apologize for the underwhelming quality of the forums when they launched. For those of you who remember we switched over from the office servers some time in October to amazon saying that he wanted to go live with the new site immediately. I was a bit unprepared for this, but we went ahead anyway, as I ironed out problems minutes before launch. And then, Facepunch did not preform well. Yeah, 502 bad coding, sort of. This has been the quite the learning experience for me, as I haven't had experience running a large scale web service at all. This is something that I'm very great for getting the opportunity though, as it will surely help in the my future. I do disagree that the site has been performing poorly, as we've maintained a a 99% uptime this past week.

[QUOTE=FunkyDisko77;28315605]Looks like it's Dragon's turn at the interview table[/QUOTE] You're a pretty good reporter tbh
[QUOTE=BigHeaded B;28315700]idk compwhizii managed to make everyone focus on him while he took an hour to write a paragraph obviously the point was to take the heat off benji[/QUOTE] "Hey buddy I wanna play Bulletstorm, can you get this heat off my back? I can't do it myself since they're right and everything" seems about right
[QUOTE=Ac!dL3ak;28315674]ask a lawyer[/QUOTE] Although your post makes sense it is ridiculous to try to pull that You know what he meant and so does everyone else, so his powers will probably not be removed because you interpret something differently
as a full time high school student heh
[QUOTE=GhostSonic;28315649]I noticed a lot of people with the FP logo wearing a crown on it's head last topic. Any reason for this?[/QUOTE] Some cool guy made some awesome avatars or something I don't really remember.

[QUOTE=BigHeaded B;28315700]idk compwhizii managed to make everyone focus on him while he took an hour to write a paragraph obviously the point was to take the heat off benji[/QUOTE] Benji's probably smoking weed and playing Bulletstorm; he'll reply in the morning or something and this shitstorm will only get shittier.
[QUOTE=compwhizii;28315713] that's not a relevant (or even factual) question. [/QUOTE] idk whizii if you look at it from everyone else's point of view, all the blind defense for you and all that jazz. IT seems like benji has got something for you.
[QUOTE=compwhizii;28315713]Did you read the other bits I posted about that? [/QUOTE] this thread was moving a damn million miles an hour at the time and the auto load post thing made it difficult to get the end, sorry about that

[quote]Compsizzle, I was wondering about your statement on not moderating for the next year. First off, why only a year? Aren't you just supposed to be coding the forums, not moderating? I'd think that would get in the way of coding to be honest. The second question is in regards to this part specifically: [quote][B]with the exception of compromised moderators, advertising spam bots, or forum exploit attempts[/quote] [/B]Now I understand moderating in the case of forum exploit attempts, as that would be related to coding the forums. The other two, however, seem like they could just as easily be dealt with by reporting them and moving on, not to mention people wouldn't see it and freak out that you're moderating. I hope you don't mind that I'll be posting this in the thread as well.[/quote] Sent this to compwhistle.
[QUOTE=Prismatex;28315422]Good. Do you plan on transferring some or all of your coding duties to someone else? And why just a year? Why not forever?[/QUOTE] Unless something changes I still plan to be a web developer here at FPS, sorry. The year is just a cool down period, I don't know how things will be a year out, let's wait and see shall we? [QUOTE=Esteam;28315426]Wow, trying to get dropboxes taken down? How fucking pathetic can you get, just because you're in an authority role on a forum doesn't mean you have any other place to take your shit[/QUOTE] I never used my position here to leverage those, just so you know. [QUOTE=:awesome:;28315437]:toxx: ?[/QUOTE] :toxx:
[QUOTE=BigHeaded B;28315749]idk whizii if you look at it from everyone else's point of view, all the blind defense for you and all that jazz. IT seems like benji has got something for you.[/QUOTE] To a lot of people, Benji possibly included, until this recent episode, compwhizii was just another aspie who embarrassed himself, and they ignored him. Now, people are seeing that he's an aspie that doesn't know when to back down and they're turning on him.
