Samz, come on. He's sincerely saying bye. Dustin, I understand why you're leaving. I'll see you at TH and at your forums so I won't worry bout not talking to ya. I think your post was a genuine question. I don't think you're into post counts anyway. Well, see ya around. Luv ya.

He hasn't even left. He made a bunch of posts last night even after this thread. He always does this, "I'm leaving" or "I'm going to go kill myself" thing for attention. I'm not pushing him out the door, but if he wants to leave, there's nothing actually STOPPING him.

You know, that happens alot on here. Theres one person that shoots off the top of my head and it's not Dustin. This site is to help. Its not a dictatorship, its a democracy. No one is better than anyone else. It would be nice if we could know when people are lying or not but we don't have that luxury. We just help and then we go on about our business. Thats how we need to do it. Not fight or whatnot. Just leave him be. He has a right to be here even after he says he's leaving. Hell, I stayed after I left for a month. I was here every day.

I absolutely agree!!



I also believe that the admins and mods of ANY group [especially one like HT] have to know when to ease up a bit on the 'rules' and 'regulations'. Otherwise - one is left with the impression that what matters MOST - ARE the 'rules' and 'regulations' and what matters NOT so much - are the very members that make up such a site. [and it IS the members that matter most] It's great to keep things in order and to make sure that people - FOR THE MOST PART - are sticking with the R&R's - but not to the point that one feels as though how they FEEL is less important then whether or not they're following an often-times very narrowly defined set of guidelines for posting. HT is supposed to be [at least in my opinion] a place that encourages the sharing of [what are often-times] VERY personal thoughts and feelings. It's very scary - for some people - to share what they're thinking with the other members of the site. [or any site] One must be careful to ALWAYS make SURE that the 'door is open' and the what they say will NOT be rejected solely on the basis of having broken some 'rule'.



GREAT BIG HUG

This is one reason why I refused to warn Dustin on rules for post count increasing and instead removed post counts (which do not matter anyways).... I sent him a pm asking him to edit his posts rather than to post another (so long as with what he was saying was within the 5 min period that we have set for locking the ability of editing your own posts). This was not meant to be blown out of proportion, I mean it's post counts.... not a warning, not a ban, not a moderative topic and post queue.... simply removing post counts. Post count's do not matter... they are looked upon as a GUIDELINE ONLY FOR SG Moderator Applicants..... nothing more.... and even then... I added yoaliens3000 as a mod and he had (Forum_PostCount: 188) when he applied.... however, as it was only a guideline, the forum he was applying for was one that does not carry post count increasing and that's why his post count was so low. After seeing how many posts he really had through reviewing him, I decided to add him anyways..



Post counts DO NOT MATTER (Jeff, i have no idea why you think they do.... I have even proven that they don't matter by messing with post counts before of random people for a few weeks).



recap:



I didn't warn him, i did something that doesnt matter, and i dont know how this got blown out of proportion.... Dustin you are welcome here, as with everyone else.

And no one is asking you to continue being rude, yet you're still doing it. So why don't you just stay out of this thread if you don't like it so much?



Dustin, honestly, it's not that big of deal. You've always had problems with Samz (gasp, I said the name) and lately Adam, it was bound to end up with you getting mad over a crappy situation. Stay or go.. I just think you're making a mistake by letting this get to you.

then maybe he should talk to the mods privately and straighten it out instead of making a huge deal out of it, he's not the only one that ever got punished, geez if u give criticism u should be able to take some

I didn't see her give any.



From the looks of all the posts, he did try and talk to them. I mean, when someone says to you:



"I sent him a pm asking him..."



I'd say they did try to work things out privately. Now he's leaving and explaining to us why.
