View Full Version : OH NOES STAFF TAKEN HOSTAGE!

06-15-2006, 02:55 AM
As an Eyes on staff -- Yes “staff”, not “Staff”. Get it right. -- member, I've seen abuse on the part of the knights and admins for a long time now. Recently, however, the situation has escalated to the point where I was admined under the condition that I would not add The Pimp smiley to the smiley list here. I accepted reluctantly because, well I thought I would have my revenge, but instead we have admins who find some sort of perverted amusement in adding whatever words they feel like to the filter. It doesn't stop there either. While I'm bound from adding The Pimp and his presence to the Eyes on smiley list, other admins just casually open the cp and add whatever smiley or post icons they want.

Well, you know what? I've had enough! I'm here to tell all of you that I'm officially holding Eyes on and its staff hostage. Any non-essential changes to the layout or look of the forums will not be tolerated. This includes adding smilies, post icons, new style sets, etc. Any admin found trying to subvert my hostage-taking abilities will be dealt with. I also call out to the members of the Eyes on Final Fantasy community to PM me if they find any changes similar to the ones listed above. I will no doubt be too lazy to look for those changes myself. This will last as long as it needs to until The Pimp is installed at its proper place here at our beloved community.

Thank you for your time and enjoy the show.

This is Public Service Announcement 63 and this time, it looks serious. Yams would never put the effort and work into making TWO whole paragraphs if he were not serious. WHAT WILL WE DO!?

Why was this thread closed? It has a legitimate topic. Discuss how unfair it is that I can't add a smiley of my choice, but have to watch my peers add whatever they feel like.

I'm about this close* from removing those dreaded kao smilies.

*You can't see it, but I was motioning a small distance from my thumb to my index finger in order to portray that I'm very close.

If Yams has the power to bring down RSL, surely he has the power to do whatever he wants when he wants to and should have the ability of the grand council Staff to do so!

EDIT: I also don't mind the removal of the smoking cat, as we should not promote smoking to felines, or anyone else.

Something most people forget:
There is nothing stopping anyone from using the pimp smiley in their own posts! You can always (as with any smiley that EoFF doesn't host) host it on photobucket or your own webspace and simply use an tag to put it in your posts. :p

And thus you can have your pimp smiley and Yams gets to retain his administrator position.

I'll support the addition of the pimp if it means the removal of the kaos. And the return of the real :rock: smiley.

06-16-2006, 12:19 AM
The laziness part is true. But I do remember clearly reading that your were adminned as long as you didn't add the pimp smiley. :p

And although I respect BoB (and other's) wishes, I do secretly dislike the kao smileys and consider the pimp smiley far better addition to the current smileys. :mwahaha:

I have regularly called for the removal of such kao smilies and would happily look the other way if another admin would happen to accidentally remove them, as with the fluffy puff style. We don't need to add anything in order to take them away.

If someone was to add the pimp smiley, not only would I de-admin them and remove it, but I would also add every single smiley there is at Aiyon in retaliation.

Yameneko is one little man, and all of the staff have supposedly been taken "hostage" by him to not create subversive smilies. His forces are far too small... staff will continue to do whatever they want. Nothing big will come from this.

EDIT: I changed that around a bit. I was a bit vague as to what I meant, and Leeza seems to have thought I meant that I actually thought staff had been taken hostage. Obviously not, I assure you all that I fully read the post and Yamaneko's post from the start. I just meant that he wouldn't stop the staff from creating whatever smilies they wanted, but I realize I was a bit unclear.
