    The funny part is that even with almost no modding here, the forum seems to do just fine regulating itself.

    Agreed.The best way to run a forum imho. Let the members discuss,rant and regulate themselves

    I didn't insult QR. I said thank you for deleting my rant on him with and me because it was unnecessary Mcjaco. Lol, if he took that as an "insult" actually let me directly quote what I said to him. You think I insulted him? I said how much I appreciated him for all the countless hours he spilled into the games forum, but really that must've gotten to his head to think he's the boss of the whole forums and permanently ban me.

    Me: hey
    nice on deleting my posts (or something like that)
    that's all I'm gonna say

    He's just too sensitive and immune to criticism that he'd of course disagree with me. Didn't expect him to manipulate my post on a forum where politeness is mandatory, and the fact he himself gets offended so easily.

    It's sad really, that he doesn't realize what he did wrong when I clearly admitted it in my post that was deleted. Now isn't that a great alternative way of manipulating as well? Take away my justifying post to build up a very negative image of me?

    EDIT: And I'm an NE elitist pretentious fuck? I've been on TPR for longer than NE, I'm not even that particularly good with the game. I voice my opinion and if "Colors are clashing. Makes the screen chaotic" cannot be posted without 4 people getting on me. Well that's just plain bullshit, I might as well copy+paste "but the screen looks great" at the end of my every post then.

    It would probably be more effective to discuss your criticisms of TPR at TPR.

    SHUT THE FUCK UP AND BUILD ROLLERCOASTERS

    I actually see dot's point though, mcjaco is the reason I left there, he's an ass that thinks he owns the place...
  • mcjaco%s's Photo
    ^ A quick serach of both your posts there are pretty good example of two guys that couldn't say a nice thing about anything.

    If you're happier here, then fine. We're doing OK without both of you.

    That is how I believe NE should be. Fair enough there are times where us admins will step in and close topics etc, but we don't do it often, only when things get out of hand.

    I think we have a perfect system at NE. We're all adults, we don't need other people to tell us how to go about our business.

    Long live New Element <3

    For further hilarity I changed chorkiel's post.

    This was the original:

    Louis!, the difference in this is that you put your name there and you'd have to be pretty retarded to think you didn't edit that.
    I haven't seen dot's post but as he told, the mod just completely changed what he said.
    Good one though ;)


    Ahahahahah aren't I brilliant.

    Just wanted to point this out, as it is pretty cool. Yeah, here there isn't a large group of mods keeping tabs on stuff here. That's cool. It really depends on who runs the site, and if that's how they want in run.

    TPR is the largest Theme Park Site on the net, and truthfully there are a lot of industry people that post there, if not use it to read the pulse of what enthusiasts are saying. It's that part of TPR that does require more modding. The relationships that have been built with the industry people are important for the site as a whole (how do you think Robb gets access to film all those POVs and get perks on trips?). Not to mention there's close to 35,000 registered members (and yes, not all of them are active), so the traffic is much higher than here, which requires more "policing" for lack of a better word.

    Like I said, I like NE. I just wanted to let Dotro know that he was not completely in the wrong.

    And I'm only an ass when it's warranted. ;)

    Even if we had 35,000 members and we had Atari programmers and Chris Sawyer and whatnot looking at our site, I can still safely say that I would let the site run itself. It's something we are proud off. We step in when needed, but apart from that members generally use their common sense when posting.

    I'm not having a dig here at TPR lol, I'm just merely stating how proud I am of our forum and how it works.

    And you should be. That was my point. ;)
  • BelgianGuy%s's Photo
    To reply to you mcjaco I've always learned to say what I thought about something, I did have increased standards on the later times when I was active at TPR but I NEVER gave criticism in an offensive way or gave criticism just to be harsch, I think if freedom of speach is taken away because of only being allowed to say something is good then sorry that ain't a forum, that's dic(k)tatorship...

    The members regulate themselves. Assholes are ridiculed and bigger assholes are ignored into obscurity, or at least they were. I think if TPR had committed to the lack of censorship early, your membership would be guiding themselves, too. Instead, you've put yourself in the position where you only ensure your own moderation jobs since your veterans rely on you to do their dirty work. To each their own. The only difference is that I could call Louis a cunt if I wanted to and he'd have a chance to respond publically. I think it's fair that we let the community decide if he's a cunt, not the moderators. Right, Louis, you filthy cunt?

    (Sorry, Louis.... it was for effect. Much love)

    Random troll with previous history of ban in TPR who also happens to suck at rct2 comes and posts random reddit picture with no fucking argument. Yeah you Mememe.


    Congratulations, Dotrobot, you just learned to insult like a fifth-grader! I admit I am not all that gifted at RCT2, but I can at least recognize good work when I see it. Just because I can't emulate it, doesn't mean I can't have an opinion on it.

    Here's my argument: Pacificoaster's screen looked good. You didn't think so. I showed you what I thought by doing something that, at the time, seemed funny. I don't really regret it, because now TPR has one less asshole.
  • ScOtLaNdS_FiNeSt%s's Photo
    Now now Calm down ^^^^ No need for the insults. But oh well im sure people at this site will regulate you :)
  • Dotrobot%s's Photo
    Mcjaco, my point still stands. I'm permanently banned for "No longer able to give credible comments or take criticism that YOU give out to others? Goodbye." I can't take criticism? I'm all for criticism, you can read my advertising topics, there's not one post in there where I openly disagreed with somebody, and if I did, I had the sense to do it maturely.

    Mememe, I've been active in the TPR games community for longer than you have. When YOU say I'm an asshole, only people that possess that thought on TPR is you, QR, and around maybe 2 more people?

    You can call me shit all you'd like, use dressed up words to sound mature, but honestly, I've contributed so much to the TPR community it pisses me off when relatively new members who doesn't show promising work like you come and treat me like I've joined 2 weeks ago. Take the "Oh my god this picture is so funny, I'm gonna take the first opportunity I can to use it!" out of your mind. Deny it all you want, that's the only thing I saw from that post. I've written over 100 word reviews to players in need, I've given advice over chat, I've given tons of "asshole" advices.

    I always took kind to every single piece of advice that was given me, you don't have to justify your reputation here where you have none so you can kindly fuck off.

    Also you haven't seen over 50 of my posts so shut the fuck up.
  • ScOtLaNdS_FiNeSt%s's Photo
    WacoJaco if your only coming on here and trying to cause arguements between two sites then i would say please refrain from doing so and retreat to tpr. This is a site dedicated to the best rct work and as far as im concerned the standards are high here for a good reason because the parks on this site are top quality. And from what i have read your not able to have "constructive criticism" on tpr but on this site its promoted and hence we have high standards and the members on this site create the best work due to that fact. Seriously though stop this arguement is absolutely pointless.

    My 50 pence :kiss:
