    They were two of the best, debaters on the forums. The only one's better than them in my opinion are Stalin and Pedro, and Imperial is right behind them. Still though, the forum not only lost two mods in 3 days, it also lost two of its best debaters.

    You know why I'm better than all you faggots? Here's why, here's an insight to my life.

    My mum practically kicked my ass out of the house before I even hit 13, and I never even met my dad. My only friend till I was 10 was the faggot prick next door who was always beating the shit out of me and telling me I wasn't worth shit. Its not even like I had a choice, the town fucking had something like 9 people living in it, I shit you not. My entire adolescence was just moving around from place trying to get along with people who didn't even want me.

    You think that's the worst? My only friend was an Asian guy in his thirties or something, who only kept me around because he thought I could help him get laid. The only perk was that I also got to hang around with this cute ginger chick, she was flat as a pancake sure, but damn she was a total nymph. She must have been a sadist or something cause she always took pleasure in hitting me and telling me how she loved to get wet.

    But dear god the bane of my existence was this adult couple that I could NOT seem to avoid. You know these types of couples that are absolutely sickening, like they wear matching outfits and finish each other's sentences? Yeah they were fucking creepers, and they had a cat, which was at least twice as annoying as they were, I swear this thing would never shut the fuck up.

    Like I said I ended up moving from town to town getting into fights with other kids my age, even adults from time to time.








    The only thing that kept me going was my dream to become a pokemon master.

    As Link said there's no incentive for a clan member to have any interest for a clan when the base itself doesn't revolve around it. I've already joined another clan and am only idling the forums for more ME3 content.

    The only serious request I ask for the young more impressional on here is please, please, please don't just stand idly by if you think something's not being done right. You need to be more vocal. If mods are actively chasing down your IP addresses and the head hauncho himself is drawing conclusions from your personal life, even if not for malicious gain, you guys need to know when a line's being crossed. In most other forums I've been on, if shit like this happened there would be an upgrising in no time.

    You don't need to do that, but please, please, please you need to question the methods of use by the moderators on this forum. A forum is a forum, you post in character, if you feel it's being taken out of character you need to speak up about it. Trust me, it's a slippery slope you don't want to go down.

    People are saying that Stalin posting videos is going to bring in fresh blood and new people but trust me, if the audience he's pulling in on youtube is seeing the shit on here, they will avoid this place like the plague. No one should delve into anyone's personal life then convey such concerns, etc. in a public arena. It has no place and is quite honestly disgusting.

    The clan's dead and that's all there is to it. Coming to think of it, it never really was alive. Most of us just don't bother with it. Not all clans on the internet are srs bsns. I bet only a handful of the people on this forum have a computer capable of running current-gen games without crippling lag on low settings.

    I do disagree with Stalin's moderation. Constantly probing for IP addresses is completely unacceptable. Especially if you go to the length of posting members' locations (acquired from IP addresses) publicly. That's a completely ridiculous length to go to, but hey, I doubt the moderators are going to be persuaded into stopping it. The moderators have an excuse to do it - what with Napoleon's shenanigans. I'm sure that nobody agrees with it now. Even more so when there aren't any good moderators left. Kali and Matt were the only decent moderators.

    I stand by Stalin. MatthewChris had the right to defend himself and most of us wanted him to. He basically said he was too lazy to. So I don't really care, just as he didn't care.

    If you don't see how probing people's IP addressed and tracking down their location is an insane violation of personal rights outside of this shit forum, I do not know what else to tell you.

    Woah, you are seriously getting downvotes. This forum is our place, and if you found another then I don't know why I was welcoming you back.

    Personal rights? All I know is that I'm OK with my location being ascertained. So what?

    If Matt was just a member it would be different but he was a moderator. Someone Stalin had to have trust in. Any of us could at any point do a ton of damage to the site if we wanted to, so if Stalin feels that there is significant enough doubt that the mod is who he says he is then he certainly has reason to remove him. Had Stalin not posted that thread there would have been a million questions asking why Matt was not a mod. I also believe that Stalin is justified in checking the IPs of those given the power to run this site.

    Onoes downvotes for a site I no longer visit...

    It was made very clear by some on this forum who "run dis shit" that the clan didn't mean diddly squat. Not even a short video by the "oh so glorious" leader was worth his time to even promote it in the slightest. Instead the clan was nothing more than people who enjoyed Stalin's Let's Plays yet was nothing more than just that. How can you build a clan along something so absurd when the leader doesn't even care? He came in and did one live caste for the sc2 tournament, that was it. If that's your clan, I'd think you'd do a little more. The clan I'm in now, LXG, has its leader constantly casting games, setting up streams and working hard to give us suitable maps and formats to play through while yours is too busy swooning at Chelsea.

    Furthermore, I don't have an issue with you. I actually like you, Benerfe. Unlike most here, yourself, Link, Toast, essac, etc. continue to question the status quo because you know it's seriously messed up. If this place is your "home" that's fine, just know this place isn't mine anymore and for many a good reason I might add.

    As Link said, there is no incentive to have a clan if the forum itself cares very little for it.

    I don't know what's more disgusting, you delving into a guy's personal life or you justifying it. You want to determine if he has multis? Go ahead, check the IP addresses. That's perfectly understandable but Stalin said the mods constantly check member's IP addresses - that is unacceptable. To get a minor background check on where they live or who they are? Fuck off, that is not for you guys at all to delve into.
    Whether you like it or not, you did violate matthew's personal life and that is a violation of privacy. If you want him banned, just ban him - that's it! The justifications used and in the manner it was used was absolutely despicable. Saying shit like, "we want mods of upstanding moral character" while going into their personal life to extract information to give justification for said actions in front of a group of young impressional kids who go along with whatever, i.e. the dude called Devil, is reprehensible to say the least. This is your forums, protect it, but please do not say you need to go into detail about a person's personal life to do so. You robbed matthew of his personal privacy and his personal respect, and that to me is just awful. Absolutely fucking awful.

    And so the plot thicken even more.

    The clan would get better, with all your points you brought up but I seriously agree with most of your points.

    I mean a serious clan would require alot of time, I guess why it was really more of a "Fan Base" clan nothing serious of sort, which could be fun in some times.
