Please don't feel like you will be policed or monitored by myself, or any of the present & future moderators. We'll be here for only one thing, to ensure stability, maintain integrity & remove those who wish to disrupt this harmony along with any inappropriate or offensive content created by the disruptive donkey. It's how I can protect all of us even when I'm not around, and that's the ONLY reason I'll give this ability to other members. This is why I believe you guys should help moderate. I'll offer members the choice to become moderators now and then as the forum grows if they choose to accept. So you never know, the guy next to ya might one day help you out!
You can disagree with any member or moderator & voice ANY (coherent, civil & pertinent) opinion no matter who it is. Myself included, myself ESPECIALLY! I encourage constructive criticism, suggestions, ideas, opinions & general feedback. I encourage this HIGHLY. Honesty is the best policy, and once we learn and truly adopt this mentality that saying it SUCKS (politely, or at least not harshly) is for our own good, helps us improve game content & communication efficiency between each other.
Status, reputation & titles mean NOTHING here. Just because you created an elite "Eli-wooden leg" model which got 50,000 downloads in 2 minutes, an achievement award & the grand prize of a colon cleanse with the latest butt-vacuum, does NOT mean you are worth more than someone who just bought their first PC & copy of hl2 yesterday. I cant disrespect you because I started & control this forum. And if I ever were to (won't ever happen) disrespect one of our members, ALL OF YOU should leave this place and never come back. If someone does not give you the respect the civilized world dictates you are entitled to, they didn't deserve your time in the first place! Neither does any community who doesn't value or at least respect your presence & membership! Just cause you got a gun, doesn't mean you shoot anyone who gives you an unpleasant stare. Always remember, you came to support the place you signed up for, meaning, without you, there is no "place". A manager at a fast food place cannot run the store without his employees. I hope I'll never even have to click on that untouched "delete account" section, it's just not my style, but I'll do it real fuckin quick, especially if a member is targeted by an insecure cave dwelling parasite.
Damn, this turned into a painful episode of the Oprah fat ass Winfrey Cow show. But unlike her shockingly random Weight Gain & Loss periods, we will be consistent with reaching our single goal, the improvement of smod, smod:outbreak, smod content addons and to develop a solid, but unofficial, tested & written general overview of commands, functions, features & tutorials for SMOD in English, for us English speaking users. So here it is, I'll only say it Once, & base my actions & decisions off of it Always.
Again another welcome, hope this gives you an idea of what's going on here, and sense of belonging, cause this is your forum, use it to your liking!
Thanks to...Achain, our first member (you win, a brand new car! heheh) JviZ, my old old old, old old (and cross eyed) TFC victim, I mean sniping buddy, Ken, OnemanShow & the laziest human on earth, Redkatana, for signing up when I invited them. I've known these guys from a few months, to almost or over 8 years now. I value they're opinions, presence & support here, except for RedKatana, he's lazy, homeless & hungry (I just broke a rule! oh wait its just RedKat, carry on). One of my best friends in real life, who I consider a biological brother, even though he is the worst thing since constipation, DrunkenIdiot619. Ahaha d**n man, nice name, we can all imagine the kinda puke you're gonna be spitting out & contaminating our forums with... Don't get banned, cause I cant help ya if you do! (JK man i love ya) Haha. And finally a VERY BIG THANK YOU to every member who signed up until today, who will sign up tomorrow..... and (hopefully!) the many more to come in the near future!
