Whether Lord in this case refers to my own awesome or one of the other staff with equal amounts of awesome is unclear. Further investigation into the matter and this ‘Lord’ character will be needed…

[20:34] <Person> Hello, since you’re a legit owner of BBT, I would aks you to do something, I already asked for my group to be added to the do not upload list, which I think is my right? But Duki refuses it. I don’t want to have to go further and do like dattebayo and tag my releases with a hardcoded text saying “not to be uploaded on BBT”. So I would ask you to grant my wish to be in the DNU list, thanks a lot
[20:35] <Jarudin> we normally don’t do this
[20:35] <Jarudin> Dattebayo was ‘very convincing’
[20:36] <Person> I know, but I wouldn’t have to go as far as them to be on that list
[20:37] <Jarudin> Sorry, we cater to popular demand. If that means stepping on a few toes, so be it
[20:38] <Person> Bad then, I didn’t want to have to copyright owner even if I’ll also suffer from that
[20:38] <Person> writte*

Oh dear me .. here comes the drama.
Can we avoid it? Continue reading →

[Kamizushi] you all rule

I thought I’d pass it on.

I thought I’d pass it on.

So, it seems people are finally getting used to the idea that I’ve stepped down. Among the first questions I always get asked in response to this is “Why?”. The primary reasons are already outlined above, but surely there’s more to it than that, you wonder? Of course.

1) People PMing you with inane questions
“Hi I am new here I saw you are a staff so can I ask how do I get rid of warning and download animes?”
“Hi I am warned how do I seed?”

2) IRC Tattletales
“kureshii .kb [Trollface] plox”

3) Being pinged for no reason whatsoever
“Oh you can ask kureshii he’s staff he should know”

4) Kids
Fuck you and your specified limits, admins always have their head too far up their ass […]
“I was seeding this torrent halfway why you delete pls give me a good reason or I will quit”

I believe the quotes explain each point clearly enough (although usually with worse grammar than in the above examples). These four things I certainly don’t miss in my newly-found normal-guy life 🙂
