I wouldn't be too surprised if I were de-modded as well for answering this question
We (the staff) were always allowed to voice our opinions even if they were bad when the old team was around.
EDIT: Cyan was just re-admined
Aright. I'm sorry:
Quote from South Park »
Stan: Who's that?
Canadian: That's Scott, he's a ****!
Damn straight.
How can he keep this nonsense going 24/7? Ban member X, Unban member X, Demod member Y, Remod member Y.... and why? Because he disagrees with an opinion? He doesn't realize yet, but he's going to lose *even more* members (and even more mods) this way. It's absurd.
So Cyan came onto another forum, a forum where many people that were at news came to and said stuff to vent his anger. I dont like SS, i dont like him at all, Im saying that right now. And i bet if i go to news tomorrow, my account will still be alive. What he did makes no sense, he keeps the site under "control" by giving people power and than scaring them by taking away there powers which they so desperately want. He expects all of his staff to be loyal to him, even when he demods half of them overnight for no reason, and then remods them whenever he has time. No community will be loyal to a tyrant like that for long, he may still have power over the site, but he has no power over US.
i think he is just mad that he is getting yelled at because he is messing up a job he is doing for free. And now if he resigns, then everyone will team up on him more, so hes gotten himself into a situetion he cant possibly get out of peacefully, and its making him take it out on those around him.

If you dont get that, look at my username, and if you still dont get it, than your to young to have an account on here without your parents permission, YOU ARE A BAD LITTLE CHILD!!!!
Well, he does in the sense that if you want to post at MTGnews that R_E > God, you'll be banned and your message will be replaced with "I REALLY WANT TO GIVE SCOTT GERHARDT A SLOPPY KISS AND BE HIS LIFESLAVE FOR ALL ETERNITY"

You really, really, really need to calm down.

I have no extendo-sig. Sorry, I'm just not vain enough to think someone will click on it.
=/ I'm just stating facts (slighly exaggerated facts, but facts none the less) about our mutual friend, Scott, and his current *erhem* zeal over moderating MTGnews.

Ok. Try to stay somewhat civil (this makes you the better person in the end).
It's just odd. He loses the title. Then, a short time later gets it back. I wouldn't be surprised if Scott did it or if it was just a tag mishap. Either way, the place is falling apart.
Unless Rider knows something that I don't, he was never un~Admined, his tag just wasn't working properly.
He was not on the Forum Leaders, and his name was neither bold nor italicized.

Sing lustily and with good courage.
Be aware of singing as if you were half dead,
or half asleep:
but lift your voice with strength.
Be no more afraid of your voice now,
nor more ashamed of its being heard,
than when you sang the songs of Satan.
spiritual herder - P_P is going through something that I think a lot of us are going through. So many of us have put so much time and effort into that one site. It means something to us and to see it get completely run over by what S_S has been doing is very painful to watch. Don't criticize P_P for having the same emotion that we all have (while we all have it in different ways)...
There's no reason to jump P_P for simply stating something he believes.
Regardless, yes, I noticed Cyan posted here and was Admin there. And him being removed and then reinstated doesn't surprise me. Probably was messaged on AIM with "RULE NUMBER ONE! NEVER PATRONIZE ME ON SALVATION OR ANYWHERE ELSE! THAT IS RULE NUMBER ONE! ALONG WITH LICK MY ASS! SO IF YOU DO THIS AGAIN, FROM ANY POSITION OTHER THAN YOUR KNEES, YOU ARE FIRED! NOW APOLOGIZE!"
Not bashing Cyan though, as we know how Scott can get ;-) I'm somewhat surprised that other staff from there are posting opinions here Shows balls lol, especially shows that you can disagree with a large portion, but still be willing to work with it, not that you are one hundred percent a lackey (in his eyes)

New Rules come out for *Reserved for something in 2020* "THEY'RE TURNING MAGIC INTO *currently "simple" game by the more "skilled" players*! THE GAME IS..." etc.
I thought Cyan was leaving for here anyway?
The post that angered Scott was Cyan saying he wanted to punch Scott in the face after reading Scott said R_E stole the donation money.

That's what I heard too.
Speaking of de-admined, DARKPRIESTCYRIC believe he'll probably be de-admined before the night is over.
GDP... And those are going absolutely nowhere. Those same people were ones who tried to get him demodded from 'news because he gave them warnings they didn't like. Coincidence? I think not.
Meh last time i talked with Nick he said he's staying on 'news till it goes under, mostly because he feels it's his duty to try and hold things togeather on the site he spent so many years on.
But he's got an account here, and I wouldn't be suprised if he jumped ship as soon as SS gets pissed off enough to de-mod him for good.
I was told today that this kid on my team called 911 twice this morning and hung up both times. They called back and his dad answered. The reason the kid called 911? He got an erection and didn't know what to do. I wish I was making this up.
His tag is merely off. I saw him in the Rumour Mill Forum over at MTGNews as a Mod/admin, but his tag said blue controll freak.
Yes, now. However, as I have said several times earlier, he was not a mod before.

Anywasy, I have no idea how come Cyan is still a mod at news. All I hear is that he is a ripper and 2 people I know have filled mail frud against him.
I guess he is still an admin :slant:
here it comes....
wait for it
