I'm tired of this argument, even more than I'm tired of Dan, so I'm not going to talk about it anymore.

Let's go to real issues. I think the members are getting out of hand with changing Bloid names. We should make a rule that only mods are able to change it.

Ugh. You want to avoid the topic; fine. I'm willing to ignore our obvious disagreements for the time being, I guess.

But I do agree with Dan there. Get off your high horse there, Stal. It's just a forum. We don't even get paid.

Some of us do.



You think Pat and Shidi didn't see the strong effect the NTWF has on Neo? They pay the admins a bit for free reign here, use of ideas posted on the forum, etc. We're taken care of.

... wait a minute, WHAT? o___0

Yeah, it's not really supposed to be mentioned...

But basically, Neo pays the admins a nice sum of money for being able to look through the board, gauge opinions, etc. Pat realized that hey, they were using our ideas and our feelings for free. SOMEONE should get something out of this, especially since a lot of firms pay good money for the kind of service the NTWF offers Neo.

She threatened to IP ban all of the Neo staff members and go public with some evidence that'd probably ruin their image for awhile unless they put us on some payroll. It's not a huge salary or anything, but it certainly makes life easier.

So, yeah.

...bloody hell, CRYSTAL! I backed you up about adminship, I deserve 40% of your income, y'hear?

Actually I don't see why fullmods couldn't get paid. We work our behinds off even more than you admins do.

[Dan]

So the regular members really DO have a reason to desire modship, I suppose.

[Avery]

Jeez. o_0 I never would have guessed that in a million years. ;

How much is the pay? >>;

No. They don't.

They have a reason to desire adminship. Sheesh, get it right, Dan.

Hunty: as I said before, my followers are rewarded. Just...throwing that out there. Plus the admins have a lot more going on then you guys ever see. It's like being part of the masons...the higher up you go, the more secrets you learn...

I'm not at liberty to disclose that... just like I really shouldn't have said anything at all. *cough* But I believe we have some things to talk about in IM/PM now...

I'll let that slide, since we're trying to be civil and everything. But honestly...you're grating more than a little on people's nerves.

Now you're making no sense. First you say that all admins get paid, then you rule me out since I'm not your follower.

...wait, are you implying that if I was your follower (and again with the high horse. Let's say... associate?) I would get paid?

Hm. Let's take this to PMs, shall we?

[Avery]

I've just had a very interesting AIM conversation with Stal. ^_____^

Well, you know, 'Odin', I think you're getting a bit senile here. The time of the Norse are over. Isn't it time to retire? Go back to Valhalla and put yourself to bed.

And higher than me? Hah! You wish! I'm an admin, you're an admin... I can ban your sorry ass just as well as you can ban mine! Besides, did you know that even Pat's getting tired of your high-handed ways? I was talking to her on AIM and she mentioned that she was considering demoting you a couple ranks, oh Holy One.

I was promoted before you. That makes me your senior.

Besides, you know Pat had to make he Assistant Head Admin to keep things together. After Kiddo's failed coup, if I hadn't thrown my support with Pat, things wouldn't have gone well for her. She can't risk going against me without destroying her power structure and tearing the forum apart. Daes Dae'mar, The Great Game. You're still just rankled that I'm holding things together and you.

Ikkin, I know not what you speak of. And Odin is the All-father, he doesn't have to listen to you or anyone. I think a couple hours cooling off ought to do well for you.

Dan, trust me, people agree with me. Maybe not openly, but I would have it as such. I have secret allies. Those that actually want to consolidate power follow me and know they'll be rewarded. Those that don't...well, you end up like Crystal. An empty title with nothing to show for it.

Hold on... you were promoted before me? Please, don't make me laugh. I was a mod long before you were given any kind of rank at all. You're a baby.

And as for the reward... well, I thought far more of you when you weren't being bribed, Stal. Why do you think I was a full mod so long? The only reason Pat made me admin was because she wanted to give you someone else to deal with... and for you not to concentrate on bringing her down.

Which is not to say that bringing the corrupt Mrs Keebler down is such a bad thing... after all, a new age has begun, an age of freedom. And all will know that 300 NTWFers gave their last breath to defend it!

Yes. Interesting in more than one way, I'm sure. After all, those Norse Gods did know how to have some fun.

Wait, we're plotting to bring down Patjade now? Why didn't I know about this? Anarchy is fun! >=D Where can I join?

[Avery]

Wait... what? Crystal, I think you've just gone loony now. I had a long chat with Stal today, in AIM, about a lot of things. And dear lord, I truly believe you're just spinning facts from thin air!

I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
