Distinction. Hito was not a mod, he was an admin. This is why Stump got promoted likely - there was a spot to fill. He was Evi's right hand. Still hangs out around #ga so there's no bad blood that I know of, but I'm not willing to talk about my friends business.

We don't target any specific number of admins, Stump just got promoted because he's some kind of techno-magician and has a glorious beard.

Please tell me Stump will never die.

And I don't think he relishes it all the time as a promotion, anyway. It makes him a go-to person for all the administrative stuff that people think we can do but are actually outside the capabilities of moderators. Stuff like giving/changing tags, name changes, and junior/unjunioring.

Well I don't want you to fall on the sword. But him and a few others in gaming side need to probably be juniored, IMO. Him mostly for the pro-MS deepthroating. He's like the most notable to post any positive MS spin news he can do.

I figured Stump got promoted because he's been making an effort every day for the past year to try to make GAF readable, 14.6 daily posts at a time.

Also being smarter than everyone else.

Stump is a bit too smart for my taste, ya know?

Kinda makes it hard to discuss things when he barges in and says you're incorrect.

Why? Honest question.

I don't like squiddy on gaf but on the bore he's earnest and can hold a conversation. He's nice and he responds pretty well to the fact that the forum hates his guts, which is a trait I think a lot of us share given most of us are gaf rejects who are now labeled misogynists and virgins by that other forum. Unlike other new recruits, squiddy does not cat ass in this thread. He treats the bore with respect and beaches outside of it, and actually attempts to be an actual member of this forum, which is far more than I can say about the fucks who come just because wah wah they're banned at gaf.

Squiddy has earned respect IMO.

Then again, I'm not a good judge of character. I try to treat most people nicely so long as they are not being dicks. And speaking of dick, I expect thick veiny penis in that nafe thread, Username you slut.

Himu · « **Reply #36201 on:** June 21, 2014, 12:55:01 AM »

Oh.

Well, the fact that squiddy immediately started posting in our forum rather than treating it like it's just the gaf thread makes me want to give him a chance without any hazing. Most people who drop by deserve hazing because they insult our community by looking at one thread. Fuck those people. Assholes. I see you readin this right now. I hate cowards.

The Bore accepted me so quickly because everyone was transfixed by my airtight and high minded arguments they voted for Gary Johnson in 2012. Even the foreigners.

Especially the foreigners.

Not only that but everyone has since rejected the authority of the state altogether!

And a bunch of people bought WiiU's because of my well sourced documentation of Nintendo's engineering prowess before launch.

It just goes to show that as long as you take The Bore seriously, don't joke around and practice 24/7 you can make it as a poster.

i thought this was why (and yes it's way more boring than admin drama but alas)

tldr - hito gets into a petty argument with some returning animegaf poster about how they have shit taste in anime. then tells them to leave and never come back. then gets banned.

it was really weird.

so you believe it's ok for another man to verbally disrespect you and then lay his hands on you if he feels like it and the appropriate response is to turn the other cheek? sounds like doormat type of behavior, where i grew up people tested you and you stood your ground, that doesn't always mean physically fighting but that doesn't mean turning the other cheek so you get slapped on the other one. OP was an employee at his work, that means he should be safe while working on the job, if a customer is verbally harassing and shoving him i think OP should stand up for himself and let the customer know he is out of line. OP may have avoided confrontation, but in the end OP let another man walk all over him. i'm not trying to sound harsh but keeping your mouth shut and your head down is a bad way to resolve confrontation. OP deserves just as much respect as the next person in this world, he doesn't need to take shit from someone else just because they're having a bad day.

I just remember johntv is still a mod. Has he even done anything mod related in the past few years? He seems pretty busy at 8-4.

I don't think he does much, but he's kept around for obvious prestige reasons.

He's not wrong (the dev) but to say "oh well 50gigs is a drop in the bucket" is

No, that's an exponential increase in size from the previous gen. And for what? uncompressed audio and multiple languages that you won't use. They could remove some of those audio files and the game would be fine.

I agree that's dumb, but I'm not convinced it's actually downloading that much data. That shit has got to be compressed to hell. I don't use Origin much, but I imagine it does the same thing as Steam and doesn't report how much it's actually downloading.

I don't know what Steam does, but I do know that Origin does a hilarious thing wherein it reports its download speed based on what the install will uncompress to. So let's say that the download is compressed 50 percent. For every 1 MB you download, it reports as 2. Because once uncompressed, that will be what you downloaded. This inflates Origin's download speeds.
