You can't tell it was all that little retard trying to get free figures. There's a lot more to it than that. I've kind of been of the opinion that it just an influx of members. I was of the opinion that when we only had a dozen people posting stuff there wasn't a need to police anything, but now with several dozen people hanging around a moderator was necessary. But I'm starting to think there more to it than just more people. What do you guys who have been here awhile think?


I can't say that it is due to the newer members since honestly they pretty much seem to be the most polite and repectful members due to their new status. What the problem seems to be is that some verterans seem to take too much pride in their photos and when they don't get enough attention or the wrong comments, they take it as a direct insult and come up with consipiracy theories. Also some people seem to 'live' for this site more then just living in general. Their focus has been obscured.

As for General Scarlette, you have been performing a great job and I don't think you should take any comments here to heart and think we feel you are not needed. Take them as suggestions as to how the members would like the site to moded. The suggestions offered up dont' seem too outrageous. The main thing I got was that they would like the threads not to be locked too quick, give them a chance to work it out.
