Pissing Contest
Sep. 25th, 2007 03:08 pmI think the mods at DoA are having some sort of pissing contest with the former DoA mods now modding Resinality . I know some mods for both/either or, might read this, but about right now I want to stress this *IS* my private LJ, and I do think so long as I am polite in the community I should be allowed to speak my mind here without fear of repercussion and without needing to flock.
I'm not sure which set of mods thinks the general users are dense, but it's quite obvious that the splitting which made Resinality was *NOT* amicable and no amounts of posting in thanks to the former mods will convince me otherwise. The very fact news is shared on one forum and not the other should make that completely clear. I don't care what caused the split, both boards can have a purpose. Groups and allowing an OT group is brilliant idea. It's wonderful getting a chance to see which members I share things in common with and others I don't and I can ignore groups that don't interest me at all.
But it feels like DoA has suddenly decided it needs ads because Resinality has ads and people like it there! (Now why they couldn't decide we need an OT section instead... )
On Resinality, I don't mind it, Resinality has less than 10% the number of members of DoA and just does not have a marketplace the scope of DoA. DoA has given its users a week to switch to this new form without having worked out some major kinks and issues. Could the mods at both boards please stop the pissing contest and think of the actual people using your boards? Or if not invite in some new mods who are not just your friends and can give you input before you make gigantic changes. OK thanx!
