HC4L gang thread

[Richard]

Indeed it was locked for offtopic. Lately, there's been this 'tepel' stuff. There were kicks and bans for it(I will be looking into that stuff later on today). Why, if you know people got banned when that happened(yourself including), would you go post more stuff about that at the forum..? When you know it isn't approved for whatever reason, try and communicate to find out why, don't go around the forum scattering it around even more.
Next to that, you say you must click the link to see it, yes of course. But it still is a public topic. You can fuck around as much as you like in the subforum, we won't interfere in there so fast.

estroe, a number of us really do believe that you should listen to the community's suggestions more.

Which suggestions? I don't recall seeing any serious suggestions really. I may forget things here, if so, point me to them please.

Close minded, do explain please?

It really does look at the moment like you play this game and are entertained my putting restrictions on the amount of fun other people are having.

What I am trying here, is to keep things nice for everyone, not just for the more known regulars.
Secondly, about the removed posts / locked topics: They were are related to this 'tepel' stuff, for that see the first part of my post.

I was on the irc earlier, and Fireburn (great management member, crewmembers should look up to him as an example- and by god, he's young too!) have a nice speech, friendly and relaxed, and next thing I know you're there banning people, hyped up on testosterone acting grand.

Indeed I was. Fireburn set +m to make his speech, in other words, he muted everyone who did not have +v. People started to use /nick blabla to 'say' something anyway, including the 'tepel' stuff again. Bakura, as a reaction, set +N, meaning you can not change nick whilst being on #LVP. So what do people do, leave the channel, change name to 'say' something, and rejoin. And so on and so on. Then Bakura had set -N. That's when I started to ban. After I banned the first, I said: 'Any more?' You then changed nick to 'NippleMEPLEASE', and so I banned you as well. AzTeC had already changed to 'estore' and then went to '[W]ESTORE', and so I banned him as well for just being annoying. Then after those 3, IDmad thought he could be funny by changing his name to 'hardnipplies', yet again, a ban.

I'll just ignore the bolded part.

The game was made for fun, and sa-mp was a way to get a whole community of GTA fans to get together and enjoy the game as part of a community.

Not everyone is having fun with YOUR way of having fun, for example Beethi.

As I said at the beginning of this post, I think we should have a good discussion about this.

Agreed, way better then the current way of things.

No name calling and no getting too emotional (I know I'm not), but just talking it over like a group of mature people.

Small reference to the 'bolded part'.. Not like it's insulting, but that doesn't fit in a proper discussion imo. Either way, no offense taken.

And estroe, do listen- don't hastily lock this thread up, and actually read what I have posted and think about it- and if you disagree as you tend to with 98% of my suggestions, at least give other crewmembers a chance to express their opinions so that I may talk to them rationally.

I won't. The other topic was locked mainly for the reason it was in a public place. This isn't to be discusses with the entire community, rather with the people involved only.
No crewmember can post here unless they're either management or developer
