Rick.P - Please relinquish the BanHammer
 
Seriously dude, c'mon. If you start banning every retard that comes on here and makes an ass out himself? How the ---- are we suppossed to make them feel like lesser individuals and flame them into exile. Nobody gets banned from HMT for saying stupid ----, they either make the concious decision that they are not liked and they go elsewhere. Or, they absorb the hatred that is being thrown at them and realize, that they love this place. This is when one will reach "HMT Puberty". Which is also a life changing stage that you have not reached, considering, the banning of people who offend you. I can understand if you want to ban people for sending you death threats, however funny that may be. But seriously, one has to be hated here, in order to be eventually welcomed. It's what HMT is nigga.

Yea what made me like HMT is the almost complete lack of faggots, and every message board ive been with has gone down the shitter because of either the little faggot nogglets getting out of control or a fag admin who cant act like a adult. And for gods sake dont do that. The beauty of HMT really was that it was a community that could grow in every way that it wanted and evolved into one of the last cool places on the net. Now if someone starts sticking their fingers in here and meddling HMT is going to die, thats the way life works, trying to control something always ends up badly.

AND CHANGE THE COLORS PLEEEEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!

WTF , what needs to be changed?

I mean, specifically, which colors. I have asked 3 times and I will change it if ai get an answer I can work with.

gon3r 03-06-2009 05:24 PM

to start, i'd get rid of the light grey and white. just make it all dark grey and black with orange lettering for the quotes.

Scott-EP 03-06-2009 05:33 PM

i wish i could remember what the old colors were. i dont think it had that light grey.

Ok Rick you said that banned members can email you to be allowed back on. I politely PMed you for that email address and you replied extremely quickly, within 5 minutes. I forwarded the email address to dvs8tr and he sent one off to you. You have not replied and it's been nearly 5 hours, are you busy or were you talking bullshit earlier?

When a member is banned does it block their email address too?

+1.

The way the color scheme is setup drives me up a ------- wall.

Rick, how can you buy a site, and not kn0ow what it looked like before. Basically, we want you to make it look as close to the old HMT as possible with vB. Granted vB is irritating as ----, but I guess since you are the new owner, there isn't much we can do about it.


The old setup on SMF was so nice. Clean and simple for us simple minded folk.

:p

caged 03-06-2009 09:45 PM

And why the ---- didnt we get a few days notice. I still cant get onto my old user name, I had to create a new email and user name and then wait a day for admin aproval!!

I got banned for making a reference to the penis pillow. WTF.

I kind of like this screen name better. I remember distinctly why I made it and the awesome introductory post I made with it. Jeff Frank LOVED me.

caged 03-06-2009 10:34 PM

---- yea that ---- was hard as ---- to read.

TTC 03-06-2009 11:28 PM

The penis pillow thread was beyond epic. When the woman came here and posted i died. The beauty of HMT was that there was no need for banning s since for the most part the population moderated itself by use of mockery. You ban the people who actually post tech knowledge and the site will be over run with nothing but ------- noobs posting "help me turbo" over and over and over. Noobs are slowly starting to learn how to make intro posts and blend into your community.
