The changes are tiny and fine, no need to barely mention them really.
This forum never, ever changes and has absolutely no direction at all but we never complain really. Time to move on calmdown:

99% of the problem is the fact that it's Badscript's forum. Nothing wrong with the guy personally other than the fact that he's never here and really only pays the bills.

I'm the admin, but I don't have access to the database, through which I could add things like games and shit. I'd love to do the sorts of things Simo has implemented at 92b (Kaboom 4tw!), but I can't.

Anything I can do with the forums is purely cosmetic or permissions based (changing usernames, banning, word censors, etc). Other than that, my hands are tied.

Maybe you should contact Badscript and ask for certain permissions that he has.

I don't think it's a matter of permissions, though. It's a matter of being able to physically alter the database. I really don't know.

I've contacted Badscript about stuff before, but I usually don't hear from him. Example, the spambot users. The database must be chock full of them by now, but they aren't getting cleaned out or blocked in any way. I asked for this months ago.

Hmm. Sounds like he just pays the bills and doesn't really give two shits how this place is run or about it's members.

I'm sure the forum would run so much better without all the spam in it.

Badscript is an ass. Yes he pays the bills but for fucks sake he should at least answer emails.

Wonder how much he pays for it.....maybe we should spam his inbox and see if he does anything about it......

[quote="mr.miyagi":139a9]Badscript is an ass. Yes he pays the bills but for fucks sake he should at least answer emails.[/quote:139a9]Yeah, I'm kind of surprised to learn that he'll pay the bills then abandon the place.

You must respect the man for paying the bills.

Not like him being here would have stopped it from turning to shit any quicker. The revolution happened way before he stopped coming entirely, and that was just retarded.

Nothing actually comes out of his pocket. Its all paid for by advertising.
