… And A Happy New Year!

So on behalf of the Chan Legion… And this cute little girl.
Happy New Year and welcome to 2010!

The Chan Legion hopes to cause more mayhem and panic all though the year… (But only when the staff ain’t watching!)

Here’s hoping to another 2 months of freeleech!

2010

Love,
Chiya!

Empowerment

Dear readers and BakaBT users,

Recently, I realised that we haven’t really been acknowledging the efforts of subbers, encoders, uploaders and such. This I noticed after looking at one of the recently granted offers, namely Princess Tutu OVAs.

How insensitive of us site moderators and administrators to not have noticed that “Group” is simply an insufficient label to describe the hours of blood and sweat poured into each and every offer! * kureshii chastises himself and the BakaBT staff for being so insensitive to effort.

In repentance, we have decided to accord the proper recognition to such dedicated effort, and accompany them with new titles:

Uploaders: Marketing and Graphic Design Executives
Power Uploaders: Senior Marketing and Graphic Design Executives
Seeders: Content Provision Enterprises (Our Precious Employees)
Leechers: Our Valued Customers
Fansubbers: Content Translation, Localisation and Enhancement Services
Encoders: Content Packaging and Optimisation Services

There is no word yet on whether these new titles will be integrated into the site; that largely depends on Jarudin, our webmonkey *ahem* Server Administrator, Programmer and BakaBT co-owner.

In any case, enjoy your new titles, we hope you like them, and we pray that these new titles will give you a feeling of empowerment that inspires you to contribute even more! 😀

Yours Sincerely,
kureshii
BakaBT moderator voluntary slave Operational Service Manager

A Day In the Life

As any admin/mod knows, you will always be insulted for doing your job, no matter how conscientious, hardworking and good-natured you are (not that we are all of the above three, but I’m sure we fit at least one of them ;x). To the admin/mod-to-bes, here’s what you can expect if you ever take up such a position:

Via PM:

I didn’t think that Anime Discussion was the appropriate board because I was asking information on the torrent, not the anime itself. Also, I figured that “Identification” meant identifying something about the torrent. Take your elitist bullshit somewhere else, actually, whine about it some more. I’m here to leech anyway, I don’t care how asspained you get.

Thanks for the over 1TB of Anime absolutely free. 😉

Later faggot.
