My Thoughts.

IP:

Firstly, I'd like to start by saying not to do useless freeposts in this thread. Also, this got kind of long.. With that said..

Alot of shit has happened with RB.com as of late. Most of you probably know the story. Well, for reference sake, I will put up my view on it all, along with my opinions and end this with a question.

About a week ago, Chrit and C-section were demodded for teasing a fat kid named ShEmY. Myself and the rest of the mods found this to be ridiculous, and right away spoke to Kalvin about it. Well, things were said and Kalvin decided that RB.com wasn't worth the stress that it was giving him. He enjoyed the building of the site/technical aspects much more than the content and running the site itself. So he decided to go on ahead and sell the site.

That brings us to two days ago, when I noticed 2 new admins on our 'who'se online list.' Right away, I knew they were the new owners, and PM'd them to let them know I'm here if they need help and that I'd like to talk to them about where they are wanting to take RB in the future. (I still have yet to have that discussion with them.. ) But, they didn't answer my PM.. so, I posted in the Mod Lounge. Still no answer from them. 20 minutes later I am de-admined, with no explination given. An hour later, he posts that he doesn't know me, therefore isn't having me as an admin.

This of course aggrivated me, which is something very few people have been able to do online. Normal RB is something I just do for fun late at nights, or inbetween college classes when I have a few minutes to kill. However, them de-adminning me after the time spent improving this site aggrivated me to no end.

I posted something like, "if I'm not re-admined by tomorrow, you both will regret it." They of course took this as a 'threat' and started acting more 'dickly' to me. ( I still say it as true, as most of the mods were going to leave with me if I wasn't re-admined. Love you guys.. lol) So, we started a chat. In this chat, Cprogress acted like more of a dickhead than anyone I have ever seen in my life and I'm not really sure why. I don't know if that's just who he is, or if that's just the image he was trying to uphold during this time. I guess it doesnt matter..

After about an hour of only hearing one line comments from these admins every 5 minutes or so, it was said that I would be re-admined only if they needed any help. Meaning, not anytime in the near future. Once that was said, Chrit, 13th, and C-section were all pissed off, as I have become friends with all of them through this site. They felt that it was bullshit, and began fucking around with things on the site. You may have noticed a battle or two of yours erased the other day, well that was because of them.

They were both banned, and I was re-admined later that night. However, with all the shit that happened, I'm still not sure I want to be part of this site that I helped so much in building. I checked a few minutes ago in the Mod Lounge and found an 'apology' post from Cprogress for acting like such a dick to me. So, basicically here is what I'm stuck with:


I don't have confidence in our new owners, at all.

My friends, have mostly all been demodded or banned.

I have been offered to go to another site and re-create it any way I'd like.

However, I still would much rather stay on RB.com, as it's become my 'net home.'


So, I'm curious what you all would do. Would you leave here, recreate a new site and start over? Or would you continue running a site and putting in your time for 2 people who have shown minimal respect to you, demodded/banned your friends, making this site 200 times less fun than it used to be?

I'm really not sure. I'm not making anything final until I think more about it, but right now I feel as though everything should be put back the way it was before the new owners, (meaning re-modding/unbanning) and we start over without them disrespecting the sites members and mods. Because right now I am heavily leaning towards leaving RB, (maybe I'll remain a mod occasionaly to check up on a few of you.. and put you in place.. ) and just recreating a site that I can have ran how I see fit.

So.. what are your thoughts? As I am quite torn..
