There will be a top-tier group of members in-charge of running the forum and servers. There will be the moderators and server admins as well...

 

One thing we do not want, are advisors. Why do we need that rank when we should be listening to the members directly about their needs and complaints. Just my two cents....

Struggling to see anybody giving a fuck if they lose it.

 

On the top of which, what happened to [Hon] tag ?

Alright, this made me pissed. This rant isn't aimed at the new guys, since you haven’t done anything wrong - yet!

 

I've been with SG in quite some time now, on and off in the last couple of years. I've witnessed a lot of decisions which I did not agree with, but this is the most retarded thing we've been through so far - at least that's how it looks to me after reading the reasons behind the sale.

 

First of all, Garfield you've been quite a passive leader of this community and you haven’t really changed major things since Haggard abandoned the ship. There are a few minor tweaks here and there, but mostly you seem to just handle the practical stuff with payments.

That's not a bad thing, since this community is crowd sourced in the very basic meaning of the word. Paul, Astrum, Spiked when he was here and a lot of the higher ups busted their asses for LOTS of hours for this community to make it work. The admins are doing a decent job at keeping the servers clean and overall the community is quite strong in my opinion. It's a bit scattered and our discussions can get messy at times, but I still find this a chill place to hang out and do CSS business.

 

That's why I don’t understand how you can possibly consider SG your own, to the degree where YOU alone can decide to sell it, Garfield.

Yes, you bought it from Haggard a while ago, but as you stated yourself, he planned on giving it away for free anyways, and I refuse to believe you paid more than a few quid for it.

No matter what you paid, we have all chipped in when there was a lack of funds here and therefore it would be the only fair thing to keep SG in the hands of the community - if we then decided no one wanted the responsibility of running the site, we could discuss a possible sale and look at the choices we had.

 

It honestly looks to me like you got bored of your position and wanted to make a quick buck on your way out. Steamgamers.com seems to be a somewhat valuable url and saying that you lost money on this trade is absolute bullshit.

 

No matter how you try to make this look, this community will no longer have having fun as the higher goal. Instead it will be about making money with ads, sponsored links or by whatever means will be considered the most effective. That's against everything this community ever stood for.

 

Hopefully things will be done in a sensible manner, but I couldn't really care less if you do it quickly or if you do it over a span of several months. If the end result is less member-friendly and less fun than the current SG, you're the one to blame, Garfield.

 

I will stick around and hope for the best, but I will without doubt start to look for other non-commercial communities and maybe just use steam to coordinate my gaming and keep in touch with my gaming buddies. It's just a shame to see SG moving in this direction since I actually cared for this community.

That doesn't mean Spiked is stupid. He's actually a very logical person. Because the staff blabbed and it spread doesn't mean that he's an idiot.

 

I said the guy who leaked the info was an idiot. Not Spiked...

 

How big is your penis?

 

My penis is so big; sperm banks pay interest.

Yeah, I'm surprised no one asked how big his penis is.

 

Hell, I'm glad people are not sucking him up because he's going to be our new leader.. Damn suckers sucked Garfieldh dry already. :p

 

Anyways, Welcome to both of you! I can't wait to see (good) changes!
