View Full Version : Getting a few things straight

Due to recent actions among some members, I have slightly changed my mod list, to Teen Tails Aran and DoctorAdorkable.

It seems, as well, that people here have overlooked what I have said before multiple times, I am not renaming the site, I just added a theme and called it CM-Base, the official site remain SkyBase.

It also seems I've received many complaints for "not doing anything!" but you would have to be blind to not see what I have changed. Aside from the obvious change o adding the ShoutBox, I added back the vbPlaza, set up a manual lottery and donation system, found 2 themes to add, made my own, and I plan to add some more soon. I also made a News forum, and suggested a public archives section. And also, many of these "requests" are either very hard, or just impossible for this website.

On that note, if you do have a reasonable request, and not begging for mod rank, please post them in the "Request" thread

Another point I'd like to make, is that some people say I've changed, but I am still the same, since the beginning I've had plans for SkyBase, but it is now that I have the power to do so, by adding features, and enforcing the rules. I've also been told my rules are stupid for being only on my "CM-Base" theme, well that is because I promised to not edit the default theme in any way shape or form, and on top of that, the only change is that I added rule consequences and some contact info updates, the rules themselves have not been changed.

And a fair warning to all, keep the rules in mind before you post something, especially rule #6.

You DO realize that Teen Tails Aran was one of the main people trolling in Rex's little tantrum last night, especially considering the logged the entire thing, right? Whatever, at least we have ONE decent moderator. I guess this site can consider itself lucky because if I was moderator, you guys wouldn't be able to flail around your stupidity everywhere, especially YOU, Rex.

Well with 15 people I believe streak said on the skybase that are active I see this website might not last very long so these changes are probably useless unless we can rack up some more members.

Rules have been updated, on both the CM-Base theme, and default theme.

I think my version of the rules makes a lot more sense.

1. Immaturity will not be tolerated. Think before you post and use some common sense.

2. Don't bump topics pointlessly. If you're bumping a topic two weeks old or more, make sure your post actually adds something to the discussion.

3. Don't make worthless posts. Worthless / pointless posts that add nothing helpful or worthwhile to the topic are not allowed. This includes posts such as "Good job!" "Awesome."

4.Use correct grammar and spelling. Look over your post before you reply and use correct punctuation and capital letters as required. If English isn't your main language, try to use a translator. We need to understand what you're trying to say.

5. Don't go off topic. Make sure your post is related to the thread in some way.

6. No backseat moderating.

7. Try to keep personal debates off of the forums.

8. Don't spam outside of the Spam Forums

9. No pornographic material

10. Only give constructive criticism. If you're sharing your opinion on something, give reasoning as to why.

Any of these rules being violated in one of your posts will result in an infraction.

I know, I re-worded some of the rules and added onto them, got rid of the silly rules, and made them over-all more understandable. Seriously, ShadowCM. I wasn't quite sure what pron meant, so I assumed that you meant pornographic material considering the events of Rex's little tantrum last night. Anyways, I suggest that you replace the current rules with my edit of the rules.

I think my variation of the rules make a lot more sense (Note how I stated anyone who breaks one of those rules in their posts would get an infraction for it). Also, I'm pretty sure that typing in caps lock and screaming at me over nothing of importance could still be considered a tantrum. Again, it was pretty much everyone else who was trolling you most of the time (SuperWind, Sylpheed, Steel, and I think Streakster. I'm not trying to get you guys in trouble, I'm just trying to prove silly old Rex incorrect like I always do). But still, it was mostly YOUR fault that you were trolled, Rex, just admit it. If you hadn't come on the Sky Base chat and started raging at me when I was trying to chat then everyone wouldn't have started to troll you.

I'm sorry, ShadowCM. If I hadn't forgotten that this was The SRB2 Sky Base, then I would have remembered that any form of criticism isn't allowed. I'm just so terribly sorry, ShadowCM. Next time you guys can continue to not improve at all and continue on with your crappy work. I mean after all, its YOUR opinion and YOUR opinion is all that matters so MY opinion about your crap isn't allowed because its YOOOOOUUURRR opinion, right? I mean seriously, CM, that's a wonderful argument. Now I realize why criticism isn't allowed, that's like the ultimate reason right there! I'm also sorry to you, Rex. I never realized that my HURTFUL old criticism could make one so angry! I'm SO sorry, man!

You know what I see TL, I see you repeating the same 2 points in every post, it's either bad criticism or Rex, that or some other silly complaint.

And as I have said before, criticism is allowed, but sentences like "This sucks" or "You're horrible" isn't criticism, it's bullying which can even be brought to court nowadays.

I never plainly replied "This sucks" or "You're horrible", that wouldn't even be considered criticism if just those quotes on their own were the reply.

Here is an example of your criticism which I like since it is what you say it is


This wad is still pretty terrible, Rainbow. She still spin dashes for some reason (MLP FIM characters don't curl up into a ball and spin at a very fast speed by the way), it looks like you edited TailsRE.wad's jump sprites and made them all rainbow colored with no shading for her jump sprites, her super form stance is glitched, Rainbow Dash is white for some reason when she goes super, her life icon is still ruined, her character select picture is still a crappy JPEG image you probably found on Google images, the new hurt sprites are still there looking really 2D, Even though she can change colors most of the colors make her kind of look like crap, and If she has a super form then how come she has her element of harmony on? I thought you became super by obtaining the seven chaos emeralds and not by putting on your element of harmony. So pretty much this version of Rainbow Dash is the same exact thing as the first one you made, which was even worse with a spin jump minus the dumb walking and running animation and sprite choices, the homing attack, and the 2D waiting sprites you replaced the better 3D waiting sprites with. But over all, this remake of a disappointment. I give this garbage a 2.5 out of 10

And here is an example of the criticism you've recently given


Rex, I don't have to make you look stupid. You already are stupid.

I suppose you pulled the classic act of getting involved. And as for any trolling that takes place, it only affects you if you let it. If it really is trolling, then the goal is to make you angry and provoke a response. Doing so will just make it worse.

The best thing to do is first know if it's actually trolling, or if it's just someone who's stressed out, or if you've simply misunderstood them. If it is trolling, just ignore the person. Most will stop if they don't get a reaction. That, or simply "kill them with kindness": Compliment them, treat them with kindness, ect. It usually throws them off, and will cause them to stop if continued. That and it can result in quite the whimsical response. If said person continues to troll you despite this and will not leave you alone, just inform someone appropriately of it.

This has been DoctorAdorkable's class on trolls. Be sure to come back tomorrow for my class on goblins.

The thing that you guys fail to realize is that I wasn't even going out of my way to troll Rex in the first place. If you think about it, this entire issue was caused by Rex. Rex is the one who started having little tantrums every time someone criticized him, and eventually started to make a bunch of unnecessary rage threads, which soon caused half of the active members to hate him (Which now sort of includes Mazefire and SuperWind ever since the raid that Rex caused in the chat box).


Yeah TTA pretty much was trolling us by logging it.

I've already stated that in one of my previous posts, Rex. Sky Base members need to stop kicking the dead horse to either increase their post count or make themselves feel more important, because all it does is add worthless clutter to the thread that isn't necessary.


"This wad is still pretty terrible, Rainbow. She still spin dashes for some reason (MLP FIM characters don't curl up into a ball and spin at a very fast speed by the way), it looks like you edited TailsRE.wad's jump sprites and made them all rainbow colored with no shading for her jump sprites, her super form stance is glitched, Rainbow Dash is white for some reason when she goes super, her life icon is still ruined, her character select picture is still a crappy JPEG image you probably found on Google images, the new hurt sprites are still there looking really 2D, Even though she can change colors most of the colors make her kind of look like crap, and If she has a super form then how come she has her element of harmony on?

But over all, this remake of a disappointment. I give this garbage a 2.5 out of 10"

Just because I say garbage, trash, shit, and crap doesn't mean that the criticism isn't good and shouldn't be allowed. I honestly don't see why it's such a problem. Just think about this for a minute, ShadowCM. Wouldn't it be better if they knew the truth about their work instead of thinking that it actually looks good and continue to make their work look crappy? If the creators cared enough about their project then they would take criticism, even if its worded "mean". If they don't listen to criticism, then they're either stubborn, ignorant, or stupid people that can't handle any sort of negative criticism what-so-ever and will use silly excuses to ignore your criticism such as "Well it's MY opinion, so stop bitching at me!" or something like that. Or they overall don't care about their project too much.


"Rex, I don't have to make you look stupid. You already are stupid."

That's not criticism, that's me telling Rex that he was acting like an immature eleven year old child at the time.


I've been in this forum for a small time and I already see that something is wrong.The main thing is trolling, which is considered bullying and it has consequences to the people that is being bullied.This may not be Rex's case but people can get real bad due to bullying.Hell, I'm bullied for liking sonic games and now I have depression.My point is that trolling, at least on this website shoul be controlled.

I'll just assume that you ignored DoctorAdorkable's post overall. But to be honest with you, I have no idea how you could manage to become depressed just because your pears disturb you for taking a liking to some sort of media. I think that you're just overreacting, it's really not difficult to ignore them at all. One thing you definitely shouldn't do is flaunt around your interests constantly. Its so obnoxious, its kind of like "Who the hell cares if you like (X)? Stop flaunting it around like everyone cares!". So what I'm getting at is, don't go around and tell everyone that you like (X) because no one gives a crap and if they're a "bully", then that will just help them find something to bother you about.


Yeah, Rex, just check the archives.

As I previously mentioned to Rex, don't go kicking around the dead horse to increase your post count and feel more important, all it does is fill the thread with worthless and or unnecessary posts that don't contribute anything new or worthwhile to the discussion.
