This is just a way of life, people should respect those with authority but usually don’t. If you speed on the highway and the cops catch you, you’ll get a hefty ticket. This is when you’ll end up cursing the cops but whose fault it is that you got the ticket? Is it the cops fault for doing his job as an officer of the law? I think not, it would be your fault for not following the law set out in front of you. On the other hand when something bad happens; the first people you call are the same people that gave you that ticket. Then you’ll be on the cop’s side when you want them to help you. It will always be a double standard when it comes to people in authority and/or promotions. You’re dammed if you do and you’re dammed if you don’t. The staff here is just trying to keep the community civil and have rules set out (that have been in place for years) which they have agreed to enforce. They shouldn’t get flack that they do for having to do their job. This situation has seem to turn from the credit issue and now directed at the staff instead, especially Dementia. The members who have been promoted to staff are there for a reason. They were members just like most of us and have helped this community in more ways then one. If we want the so-called “old GR” back we need to work as it as a community, the staff can’t do everything.
if you don't like it leave, start ur own forum, all u people that are bitching leave, staff put a lot of time in this site, and over the whole time, they have only made 1 stupid decision, bank/stealling, i think it should be gone, but if you don't like the forum, LEAVE
The votes against proves how many credit whores came in this thread. You guys all made yourself look like idiots without even knowing, seriously.
indeed. hopefully after this, a lot of the cred whores will be gone and the emphasis will shift from market to community.
I'm not a credit whore and I voted for no, sure I have 9500 but that's because I have been saving for a platinum acco.
i agree with that, if you want a real community, take out the whole credit system, sure you will lose some members, but hey wasnt the staff who said, we want to lose the credwhores? i was here for the community, not for the credits, sure its a nice extra but nothing more.. now 75% of the guys who made the community a fun place to be , is banned, dem i dont say your a bad mod, but you should warn more instead of using the ban button, like majin i thought he like 90% warning, and now you just use the ban button on everyone who is in your way. so i say take out the credit system and a better community will come back, sure gr will go through some hard time but lateron they will come back.. i donated to this site, i wont accept that they just steal from us..
I don't care what has happened here at GR, it is still a great place (except for all the people that are bitching) I was one of the victims of getting credits stolen from me, but I never bitched, Only because it is FORUM MONEY IT'S NOT REAL MONEY I will never buy credits from someone with real money, I might sell something tat cost real money to someone for creds, but thats about it. So overall, yes I like the new GR
