Volcom Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 If you were taking a break how hard would it be to make a simple forum post so we all weren't sitting here waiting for you plugins to be complete?
BillieJoe67 Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 I wasn't exactly thinking during that time, so probably quite hard. Also, since you weren't here at that time, I had a bot just about ready, but then xpert turned up out of the blue with his laggy ass stuff and when he left Animoski asked me to fix up brenbot where necessary instead. Dronez and jks101 will both testify that the original bot is better than brenbot and mostly bug free, thus making the 2 months that I spent making it useless.
Guest Animoski Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 In response to the updated first post, yes, I used to smurf a lot. Yes, I was inactive for a while due to issues in real life, and a shitload of exams (which I believe you have provided as one excuse for the lack of progress of rencorner). But another reason I just couldn't be arsed to do anything was because when you brought xpert in, you didn't even warn me so I could stop working on the first bot. If you imagine yourself into that position, would you be too willing to help? If you consider me ignorant, then you're greatly mistaken. I admit that I can be arrogant, but ignorant? Cool story bro. With regards to purposely aggravating moderators; I'll assume you're referring to the incident with Good-One-Driver a few days ago as I can't remember any other time I have aggravated moderators. I was off my face at that time, my girl had just fucked off with some other guy and I was generally feeling shitty, which made me do and say things that I regret, as dronez told me I would. The fact that you never see me around is due to a few things. As previously mentioned, I took a break from renegade for a month or so, and currently, I have college 7 hours a day. Combine that with the fact that we're on a 5 hour time difference and you'll soon realise why we're never on at the same time. When I first accepted the position of developer, it was in the summer holidays where I could fuck around on teamspeak until half three in the morning, and we'd be online at the same time. I don't believe I've ever asked for an apology, neither do I want one. I've already asked shaitan to remove my forum privileges, so you won't have to worry about this "joke" much more. I'll just be some ingame noob who neither knows nor cares about the community surround the game he plays. Smurfing is cool and everything, but not when you mess around with moderators, especially those with easy triggers. What I don't understand is, why it seems majority of OSTK seems to be having "real life issues" - I swear i've heard 5 of you guys say it this week alone. We all have real life issues, we all cope with them in different ways. The question is, can you handle it on top of your priorities? If you knew you'd be taking forever to do something, or wouldn't active - why not make a post? While I admit I could've taken the Xpert thing differently, people knew about it in the days leading up to the big switch. It was only supposed to be a test run, which it was. We went back to whatever little you did to the bot we had before - a long fucking time ago. I'll personally apologize here because I believe you should've known before hand. I'm sorry I didn't tell you what was going on, it's just a continuation of our difficulties with communication. Maybe we should invest in twitter or something. While I certainly don't want people leaving this community, life definitely could throw you lemons. I rather have you playing under a smurf name and no-one knowing who you are than having to continue fighting back and forth. Do what you wish, and I wish you all the best and luck with it. Just make sure your priorities are right. Something I have to do myself.

I've yet to see anything of the bot you've made. Last time I remember we had a convo about that, I remember you saying you had the bare functionality down, and I told you, you might as well stop and work/fix on BR so it's more up to par, in the end, saving you more time and effort...
RnD Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Billies bot should at least see testing at the server level in RenCorner, that much I would defend him for more so to at least see what in the end would be the best for the server, but more then that, I can share sympathy for hard work being done then suddenly being told go away, given today's events, I doubt that will happen now but it is a thought, in the end that is all I try and share here.

I thank you for this, and although it may come a little too late from my perspective, it sorts out one of my issues and shows that rencorner as a community has the potential to come out on top.While I certainly don't want people leaving this community, life definitely could throw you lemons. I rather have you playing under a smurf name and no-one knowing who you are than having to continue fighting back and forth. Do what you wish, and I wish you all the best and luck with it. Just make sure your priorities are right. Something I have to do myself. This is what I actually intend to do, at least for a while. I have resigned from my moderating capacity at tmx until my head straightens out and I feel I can trust myself.I wish Rencorner the best in all its endeavours, and I hope that I will be a part of them in the future. Before I leave the drama studio for the wastelands of smurfhood, I would like to make a few personal apologies. Good-One-Driver: I deeply regret the shit that I caused on Friday or Saturday (whichever it was). It was not a personal attack, you just happened to be ingame and you have a relatively short fuse, which means it was easy to make you rage. It was completely uncalled for, and, despite a somewhat marred past, I am an admirer of your most recent work skinning for a mostly dead game. I myself have tried to skin unsuccessfully, so I know the skill and patience it takes for something amazing to come from it. Animoski: Reflecting back on this thread, and past conversations, I realise that we both have possibly made some errors of judgement, or similar lapses of memory You have apologised for yours, so I apologise for mine. I realise that I should have made a post stating that I was not going to be active on Rencorner in any way for a while. Furthermore, I have allowed my head to spill out way more than I would normally allow, and many hot-headed posts have been made as a result, including the one that ultimately led to the removal of my forum privileges, and my shit has spilled over this forum in a way I would not have dreamt it ever would in the past. I feel I have let down your community, your original trust in me and, ultimately, myself. I hope that anyone reading this will only form an opinion of me through the posts I made when I first joined Rencorner, and the one I am writing currently. I seriously regret letting myself down in the way that has been witnessed recently, and hope that I will return when my head has calmed the fuck down. Peace out y'all 2
RnD Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 It will be interesting to see where things go from here, hopefully for the better.
Cronus Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Just go back to having fun, will solve all issues. > Edit: fu ipb for screwing up my epic >: D face 1
Sean Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 I have resigned from my moderating capacity at tmx until my head straightens out and I feel I can trust myself. I promoted you at TmX for a reason, you are of good character and I respect you. Thank you for everything you've done for TmX, when your back send me a pm and I'll get you re-added. I'll assign you temp moderator on your nickname OSTKBillie so you can still deal with troublesome players for now mate. In regards to RC, I can understand that you've been busy with real life mate, especially with college, I'm sure RC would love to have you back as a developer when you return. You know how to contact me if you need to talk about anything. See you soon Billie. <3
Wyld1 Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 And this one has pretty much run it's course. As Cronus said go back to having fun. See you in the servers and thank you all for caring so much about RC.
