Farewell, RPG Crisis. Options

[Allen Hunter]

Dear RPG Crisis,

I am sorry to inform those who read this, but my job and contributions as Global Moderator and Staff ends right here, right now. The reason why I decided to resign with NES Player is simply because I feel that we are not going anywhere, that Elemental Crisis insulted his own staff, is now never there for us when we needed him, took too long to get things done (such as updating the rules with my own revised version), and he just depends on his half-assed staff team to do his work. As I type this, I am disappointed with Elemental Crisis as our "responsible" owner.

Please read on as to what I have to say about this site and the community before I make my leave.

December 23rd, 2008 was the day I joined here as your typical everyday average Member. I posted my intro thread a few days after, and I was welcomed gracefully by some of the staff. I remember looking at that forum skin and even now I still prefer it over the new skin by Rory, not to say I don't appreciate his talent in art, but it's just my opinion. It matters because I'm not going to lie to myself anymore on this. I'm spewing 100% truth and nothing else.

However, I am thankful that for the first time ever, I became a Global Moderator or even a "staff member" at a website in general. I had fun doing my thing and ridding our database from any spammers who just wanted to bypass the 3-post rule in the first few months. It was cool seeing some improvements take place, too.

However, we have been seeing some staff members losing interest or not having the time to work on this site, such as xX Raian The Fallen Xx, Shayde Zehetbauer, and sicksinz. Some of these "staff" were just typical Members with access to the private Staff Lounge. It seems that Elemental Crisis will make ANYONE a staff member in less than a week after joining. Why? I don't know. Maybe it's because they promise to contribute these "resources," but then end up doing nothing at all.

Now, I'll admit, that I have and still do at times come off as rude, for I am sorry to any of those who have been hurt. But I must follow my chosen path to leave this censored & inactive forum of lame staff members who only care about AGM/IGM, and not also the rest of the RPG Maker coverage.

To be quite honest, I do not like RPG Maker VX, and that is why me and NES did not want to be featured in a RPG Crisis community game project using that Maker, neither did we even ASK to be put on. That was when Elemental Crisis and a typical Member named Dyhalto decided to call us "assholes" and "babies" just because we didn't get asked to be featured in this game (not like we'd want to anyway). I did not intend to offend Lyric Induced at that thread, and neither did I know about the game's progress, as I never really cared about looking through the posts.

Now, Elemental Crisis and Dyhalto were giving us total fucking shit by saying that it's Lyric's game, and that he can put us regardless. Sure, he can. He's making it, not us. However, we all have our right to choose what we want and what we don't want. I just wasn't comfortable seeing myself degraded in a RPG Maker program that I cannot stand. I'm sorry Lyric has to restart this, I really am.

Another argument I'd like to make, is, the owner's preference of having a forum over working hard on site content. First of all, a forum is just an extra to maintain your site's community AFTER you've provided enough reasonable site content to DESERVE a well-established community. I do not see this with RPG Crisis' case at all. It feels like that I am wasting my time here at this inactive site doing nothing constructive pertaining to my job.

I was happy to have in some mesmerizing way, contributed back to this site, such as helping spread the word, take care of the spammers when no other mod or admin was awake at night, revised the forum rules (and the recent version was by NES, but I improved the look of it), and some other things that I may have forgotten to mention.

About the 3-post rule... at the time, I did not think much about it, just to make sure people were following the rules. I know I have caused alot of anger with members like megaman8x where I would just go ban-crazy over one simple spam post by a new member. Thinking back, imagine the potentials they could've had to contribute to RPG Crisis one day? Elemental Crisis had no problem with me doing my thing, and I didn't question it either. It's just that I finally started realizing recently about these mistakes I've made and how sorry I am to the newbies. I now agree that it was a silly idea to force people to make accounts, since it's just going to lure more spam to bypass the download system.

Yes, we do have alot of rare Makers and cool utilities and some nifty demos/games to download, but most of the time our downloads would just fail, so don't think that most of these 3-post noobs always got 100% of their downloads without any errors. I wish I had known better, I failed to be a fair staff member and contradicted what we stood for. I feel that we should allow guests to download, so those who make accounts here are doing it to post and be a part of our community. I wish we could've lasted longer like this. But my job is done with this place.

It has been a great pleasure meeting interesting and friendly members here, including Elemental Crisis, NES Player, Lyric Induced, Clone, sicksinz, megaman8x, Kurysu (Ultyma), RKO Franklin, Bandito, and Obsession. There may have been others I also like, but it's enough already.

Too bad we have newbie assholes disrespecting our own staff, such as Midnight Assassin and Dyhalto. They are in NO WAY entitled the right to cuss or insult a fellow staff member who's been working hard when they clearly haven't done anything for this site, but to waste time with another boring forum. Also, there are other morons that I do not like at all, namely Shayde Zehetbauer (being the lazy procrastinator who never did anything), Raian The Fallen (another fucking deadbeat loser who gave up on our site without a care), etc.

I guess that is all I have to say about RPG Crisis. Though my time here was in no way as much as NES Player's, I atleast have been here for 7 months or more to finally see it all. Again, I am really sorry to all my friends here that I will be departing from this site. My best wishes goes to Elemental Crisis on recruiting better-suited staff to fulfill his needs and to finally someday have RPG Crisis in a much better and active state than it is now. I may return in the future to start posting again if this does happen. But it'll be a long time before that even happens.

My last words? Well, thank you all for providing me a great community for a little while. I enjoyed meeting interesting people I've already mentioned above. Take note that I still do like Elemental Crisis as a friend, and would still talk to him on WLM, e-mail, or whatever. It's just that he is not doing his job right and I don't think I can help out this site alone or with just several people. I wanted him to make clone an admin a few days ago because he's more active than him on the internet, and is able to supply us with information and resources necessary to have a strong and lasting site. Too bad that he was rejected.

It's funny how EC instead in the past made Kyle Katarn a staff in one week after joining just because he said he was going to contribute DBZ and AGM resources, that's it. Also, why is uzumakishade a staff member?

This is why I'm leaving RPG CRISIS. The name makes sense now! Ha, ha.

Now, I'm moving on to complete a new site with NES Player, called RM Sanctum, a site concentrating on the coverage of every nostalgic RPG Maker software from Rm2k3 and below;NO RMVX Bullshit. There is also another gaming site we will also release (along with a fun forum to support it) is Mega Gaming, a nostalgia/humor-driven site where anything goes! Also, TheHunter's Domain will be moving to a different server soon. Just be patient!

The links are not available at this time, for we have yet to release either, and I'm sorry to say that the official demo release of Runic Cipher will not be released here, and it may be pushed to another date until RM Sanctum is launched. To get ahold of me for more information, please add me on Windows Live Messenger: thehuntersmetal@hotmail.com.

Let's see this place try and succeed without us. Goodbye, RPG Crisis.

Allen Hunter

It's funny how EC instead in the past made Kyle Katarn a staff in one week after joining just because he said he was going to contribute DBZ and AGM resources, that's it.

I never said that. I was made staff member because I stuck with AGM and am trying to learn as much as I can about it instead of ditching it completely because it didn't have any one feature which I thought it should have (Im not trying to reference anyone else in that statement, btw). Honestly if I were just a normal member I'd be contributing resources, tutorials, etc whenever I could reguardless. And the reason I contribute only DBZ resources is because it's what my resource library consists mostly of.

[Elemental Crisis]

However, we have been seeing some staff members losing interest or not having the time to work on this site, such as xX Raian The Fallen Xx, Shayde Zehetbauer, and sicksinz. Some of these "staff" were just typical Members with access to the private Staff Lounge. It seems that Elemental Crisis will make ANYONE a staff member in less than a week after joining. Why? I don't know. Maybe it's because they promise to contribute these "resources," but then end up doing nothing at all.

Why don't you do some research before accusing me of something you have no idea about.

Raian - Staff job was to upload resources, demoted as he no longer wanted to do it and wanted to focus on this other sites.
Shayde (Random) - Lost interest in translating and actually asked not to be staff anymore because of it.
Sicksinz - Way to busy with in RL to help around here.

Out of the 3 people you listed only 1 of them I promoted within a couple weeks of being here. The other 2 I had known for a very long time so your little assumption I will promote anyone isint entirely correct.

Now, I'll admit, that I have and still do at times come off as rude, for I am sorry to any of those who have been hurt. But I must follow my chosen path to leave this censored & inactive forum of lame staff members who only care about AGM/IGM, and not also the rest of the RPG Maker coverage.

Almost every compliant I got was about you because your an ass to people. I like how you say we only care about AGM/IGM when your new site only focuses on 3 makers. Tell me, what do you know about Shooter Maker 95, Simulation RPG Maker 95, Renai Maker, Network Maker..etc? You know absolutely nothing but I do and I support them. So yeah I only support AGM/IGM, good call on that.

To be quite honest, I do not like RPG Maker VX, and that is why me and NES did not want to be featured in a RPG Crisis community game project using that Maker, neither did we even ASK to be put on. That was when Elemental Crisis and a typical Member named Dyhalto decided to call us "assholes" and "babies" just because we didn't get asked to be featured in this game (not like we'd want to anyway). I did not intend to offend Lyric Induced at that thread, and neither did I know about the game's progress, as I never really cared about looking through the posts.

Now, Elemental Crisis and Dyhalto were giving us total fucking shit by saying that it's Lyric's game, and that he can put us regardless. Sure, he can. He's making it, not us. However, we all have our right to choose what we want and what we don't want. I just wasn't comfortable seeing myself degraded in a RPG Maker program that I cannot stand. I'm sorry Lyric has to restart this, I really am.

You were just being an asshole and by the time you made that post you and NES had already decided to leave. That project has been in the works for months and you only wanted out because you were leaving so don't give us this bullshit about not knowing about it. I only called you an asshole which you are once. Unless of course your counting this thread.

Another argument I'd like to make, is, the owner's preference of having a forum over working hard on site content. First of all, a forum is just an extra to maintain your site's community AFTER you've provided enough reasonable site content to DESERVE a well-established community. I do not see this with RPG Crisis' case at all. It feels like that I am wasting my time here at this inactive site doing nothing constructive pertaining to my job.

Your ignorance makes me so happy. Again, you knew nothing about what was going on with the site, nothing at all. A lot is/was in store for the site and hey maybe if you werent such a coward and actually asked me I would of told you but you never did.

About the 3-post rule... at the time, I did not think much about it, just to make sure people were following the rules. I know I have caused alot of anger with members like megaman8x where I would just go ban-crazy over one simple spam post by a new member.

It's just that I finally started realizing recently about these mistakes I've made and how sorry I am to the newbies. I now agree that it was a silly idea to force people to make accounts, since it's just going to lure more spam to bypass the download system.

This was your idea, you complained all the time to me about these people posting spam to download. Also, we only banned people who posted SPAM to download, of course it seems you banned anyone who only posted 3 times.

Yes, we do have alot of rare Makers and cool utilities and some nifty demos/games to download, but most of the time our downloads would just fail, so don't think that most of these 3-post noobs always got 100% of their downloads without any errors. I wish I had known better, I failed to be a fair staff member and contradicted what we stood for. I feel that we should allow guests to download, so those who make accounts here are doing it to post and be a part of our community. I wish we could've lasted longer like this. But my job is done with this place.

Again shows how little you actually know. That 1 download credit that was required to download allowed you to download the file as many times as you want. Check the original news posts , https://rpgcrisis.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=382

Too bad we have newbie assholes disrespecting our own staff, such as Midnight Assassin and Dyhalto. They are in NO WAY entitled the right to cuss or insult a fellow staff member who's been working hard when they clearly haven't done anything for this site, but to waste time with another boring forum. Also, there are other morons that I do not like at all, namely Shayde Zehetbauer (being the lazy procrastinator who never did anything), Raian The Fallen (another fucking deadbeat loser who gave up on our site without a care), etc.

Sorry your feelings got hurt because a member called you a name.

It's just that he is not doing his job right and I don't think I can help out this site alone or with just several people. I wanted him to make clone an admin a few days ago because he's more active than him on the internet, and is able to supply us with information and resources necessary to have a strong and lasting site. Too bad that he was rejected.

As I told you I dont promote someone because their active. Nice try though.

It's funny how EC instead in the past made Kyle Katarn a staff in one week after joining just because he said he was going to contribute DBZ and AGM resources, that's it. Also, why is uzumakishade a staff member?

Again something you know absolutely nothing about because your ignorant. Why didint you just ask me, maybe you didint think of that. Kyle is part of my IGM staff and I had been talking to the guy for hours before making him staff. Uzumakishade is someone I've known for a long time who I made staff and put in charge of the IGM starter kits. Part of my plan to promote members and have them specialize in different makers.

This is why I'm leaving RPG CRISIS. The name makes sense now! Ha, ha.

Oh your funny! At least my site's name is original and not already in use.

Dont think Allen and NES are innocent, their guilty backstabbing elitist bastards who think they ran this place.

Allen, you forgot to mention the following.

- Allen and NES decided to unban spammers so they could SPAM the forums.
- They deleted the badword filter list because they want to sound cooler.
- They actually started spamming the forums because their immature kids.
- They had been planning this leave for a sometime, wasint sudden and actually got mad at me when I found out and demoted their worthless asses!
- They edited other members profiles to make it look like they were the ones spamming.

I love how they got mad at me for "insulting" them yet they insulted me all the time when talking to each other and others.

What you (visitors) dont know is that unlike responsible people they never planned to tell me they were leaving and instead decided to fuck this place over with their immaturity. They got mad at me for not being on when they needed me? Sorry I cant be on all day like you guys, I actually work 2 jobs and here's a surprise, when getting home at midnight after working all day I actually want to sleep.

Allen and NES, your just 2 immature pissed of people who think their all cool and mighty because they can use the internet as a weapon.

[Kyle_Katarn]

I agree completely Crisis, it's just unfortunate that these two had to act like total dickheads, instead of doing the adult thing. If they wanted to go, that's completely up to them, but they shouldn't have tried to "leave with a bang", instead they acted like the spammers that they banned (what makes it worse is that they were doing it knowingly and had a good sense of right and wrong beforehand).

[Sicksinz]

im certain the bad word filter list is a moot issue when your offline message has fuck at least 3 times.

Everyone needs to calm down. Pointing fingers will not fix the forums.

[Dyhalto]

I'm definitely earning that Four Fiends-equivalent role in Lyric's game.

[RATED-RKOFRANKLI...]

Good bye Allen Hunter.

[Midnight Assassi...]

Yeah Frank. Goodbye and good riddance!
