I remember people not liking him, but as I recall, he never bugged me.

He picked on people. Targeted them. If someone did something stupid and caused an argument/flame, rather than moderate the situation, DI would just further infuriate whoever it was, then close the thread.

Or he wouldn't even close the thread at all, he'd go in, say how stupid whatever it is whoever is flaming about, then go out. He'd never make the first move in an fight, he'd never be seen to start one, only make it worse. And if people ever questioned him he'd start to come out with bs like "I'm just telling it how it is" or "it's the truth, and the truth hurts".

(Those weren't actual quotes, just examples)

Death how about: http://www.oddworldforums.net/attach...achmentid=1609

You go around starting arguements, flaming also. He was chosen as a mod for a reason, how about we stop bad mouthing him and just give in to the will of our amazing Admin and Super mod. Must follow Admin/Super mod Instructions.

DI wasn't an asshole. He was honest. Brutally honest. I remember him and I having a few little rabbles, mainly at TGA, but it certainly was more interesting when he was around. Looking back, he kinda reminds me of Maddox.

I guess he just moved on. No big deal, I'm sure we'll all do it eventually.

(Joshy, the "piping hot cup of SHUT YOUR FACE" version of the pic is much better.)

Majic 03-06-2004 06:04 PM

Not me, bitch. I'll leave, and come back in a few years, demand back my mod powers, and wipe out Off Topic. Bahaha. Ish.

Speaking of Maddox, anyways, I wish there'd be an update. Bah.

Yes, yes he was.

Just read back through his posts and you will see what I mean. He spends more time being being "brutally honest" with people than he does trying to get along with them.

This is what makes him an asshole.

Sure, he may be nice to talk to in private, or one on one, but when it comes to the forums, he is just lethal. And like Alcar once said, this forum runs on humorous, kind people.

While it may be slightly hypocritical of me to say any of this, I do at least make a noted effort to be humorous and generally nice.

You can say Disgruntled Intern is a nice person as many times as you like, but it doesn't get rid of his post history.

Who gives a shit if he wasn't nice? Seriously folks, I'd rather have two DIs than 1 person masquerading as "odd" and "quirky" and starting idiotic post-upping threads.(Legalized and endorsed spam if you ask me. And yeah, I've been in them so we don't need to start that.) Also, like it was pointed out, he probably is a saint in real life he just uses the 'net's built in anonymity to its fullest. As an aside, he DID act pretty asinine on a couple of occassions but you could say that about just about anyone who has ever used this board.

Poo, no awards.

Oh, I bet I can.

NOTHING's cooler than the Aquabats.

Nothing.

Dave 03-20-2004 07:16 AM

Aqua ... whats?
I'll hafta look around.

Mac the Janitor 03-20-2004 07:18 AM

The Aquabats are seriously the best band in the world.

I have a shirt that says that, too.

So that means it's true.

Oh yeah, and not only are they the best band in the world, they're also the best superheroes in the world.

Dave 03-20-2004 07:46 AM

Woah!
A superhero band?
That is actually pretty cool.
I really hafta go find out about these guys.
