Trialmin Review: Optimumtact

[oranges]

Bottom post of the previous page:

He has LITERALLY said that when he stops giving a shit due to fatigue he'll go haywire and fuck shit up

When did I say this?

[oranges]

>being rude and blunt is the best way to get thru to people.


This is called social retardation.

This this an opportunity that's too good to let pass



I guess unlike you I'm just not pretending to be a hypocrite about being polite when the arguments get emotive.

[Nilons]

I think a good way to phrase it is oranges is mean but he isn't mean maliciously, he's not out to hurt feelings its just how he talks and conveys what he thinks that is mean.

you have to take his intent into account with this type of stuff

and this is the exact reason im here saying that you shouldn't be an admin.

is this you being hard and saying the truth??? or just you being a massive dickhead??? you decide.

also let me help you here

More specifically to adminning, he quit last time he felt he was going to abuse it because he was getting sick of it, which is probably the most important judgement we need admins to be able to make.

[ColonicAcid]

"you have to take his intent with this sort of stuff"

so when he posts garbage from 4 years ago as some sort of end all be all when he wants to insult me i should overlook that and try and find the real hidden meaning in his posts? please, i got better things to do than go into the psychology of oranges posts.

here's a little hint to u oranges, i don't really care all too much anytime u post that, i still mean it, coderbus in 2013/14 as a clique is all of you making up for the fact that you weren't part of the cool kids in high school so now you gotta make up for lost time. You constantly prodded the bear when it came to errorage and then went "WAAOOOHHWWW LOOK AT ERRO HES DERANGED" when anyone in his position would break down from all the constant shittery that you and muskets and any other pathetic little shitstain of human beings that were involved in that fiasco.

Did i say stupid shit in that post? Hell yeah, i was fucking angry. I considered error a friend and i literally saw him break down because you bickering fucking school girls instead of trying to have constructive discourse like human beings instead did anything you could to prevent error from doing anything.

you know actually i wasn't going to post in this thread but then i remembered you always post that image when i'm being character assassinated by people and i KNEW, like as soon as i pressed the post button, i just KNEW you were going to post that image again.

so actually i take it back what i said about not having the time to enter your mindset, i can read you like a fucking book because you're as two dimensional as a sheet of paper lol... atleast i can wipe my ass with a sheet of paper, you're too abrasive to do that.

[Lazengann]

He's from New Zealand, they don't coddle people's feelings like Canadians do. Which is why I find Qbopper's offense to him so classic(sorry). Please remember to be culturally sensitive in this international gamer community

More specifically to adminning, he quit last time he felt he was going to abuse it because he was getting sick of it, which is probably the most important judgement we need admins to be able to make.

[ColonicAcid]

i mean i would rather hire admins who isn't going to fuck shit up because they're burnt compared to someone who knows if they got burnt out they're going to fuck shit up and quit because of it.


that's just me but yknow you do you fam

[somerandomguy]

i mean i would rather hire admins who know that fucking shit up because you're burnt out isn't okay compared to someone who knows if they got burnt out they're going to fuck shit up and quit because of it.


that's just me but yknow you do you fam

If he didn't know that it wasn't ok, why would he quit because he was afraid he might do it?

[ColonicAcid]

check the edit.

i fucked up the syntax

[The Clowns Pocket]

told me I needed professional help so I got professional help

[pubby]

I've never said no offense before I've offended people because I intend to usually cause them quite a bit of offence.

what was that signature you had

something about apologizing in advance

no that was him you've absolutely destroyed the evil fruit just now

[oranges]

mfw when I'm being insulted by a hypocrite with 7 connections to the server in the last two years, colonic has more posts in this thread than he does connections on the server in 2018 and 2017, so it's no wonder he has no idea how I am as an administrator.

Oh shit dude I'm sorry, I didn't realise Kor was speaking for me there, I'll just go ahead and forward all remaining posts in this thread for Kor to answer.

anyway keep posting colonic, you might manage to put together a post that says something more than

bluh don't promote this guy he's meannnnnnn to me on the forum and he might be meannn to me as an admin

Finally

you know actually i wasn't going to post in this thread but then i remembered you always post that image when i'm being character assassinated by people and i KNEW, like as soon as i pressed the post button, i just KNEW you were going to post that image again.

yeah I bet you did and that's why you posted so many words, just in case

[oranges]

true, I guess i have said it.

[ColonicAcid]

Connections literally don't matter when it comes to me saying that your personality is abhorrent and you have a history of doing stupid shit

[Karp]

yeah all those hundreds of tg players who like to put pet collars on.

They sure are the most vibrant part of our playerbase

Garbage mentality and this is what scares me about you oranges.It is a highway to justifying mistreating players if you and everyone else suddenly despises them. It makes me feel as if all it takes is the wrong person at the wrong time before you slip up due to a major distaste of someone over their behavior.

In relation to the collar bit, I doubt anyone would call xenomorphs fetish content as well, despite the fact that for some people it literally is fetish content. Something being used for one purpose with a small subset of players does not black mark the feature, and I doubt most people would ever use it as "fetish content" instead of as a joke.

[oranges]

aliens you can fight is not the same as a pet collar that is supposed to go on pets also being able to go on humans, one is obviously adding a lot more to the game in content and flavour, the other only appears to exist for the sole purpose of being a weird callback to a fetish.

It's not like adding the pet collar to humans does anything meaningful, so tell me what you supposedly think it's for?

In my opinion they're not equivalent, which is why I don't have a PR up to remove aliens

It is a highway to justifying mistreating players if you and everyone else suddenly despises them. It makes me feel as if all it takes is the wrong person at the wrong time before you slip up due to a major distaste of someone over their behavior.

In what way do you expect me to mistreat them? I might insult them in OOC or post about them on the forum, but I'm not suddenly gonna ban a bunch of people just for wearing pet collars, because there's no precedents that an admin can ever do something like that and get away with it. Every single admin on the team has biases, most of them don't act out on them, why would I be any different just because I happen to be more outspoken about mine?

[ColonicAcid]

>still talking about my connections

Check the thread title my man.


edit: it should be said though that for that very reason i should not have any problems with you and yet i somehow do??? somehow even though i dont play on this server i still think you would be an awful admin purely through your ooc behaviour.

i'm hardly a hypocrite because i said the exact fucking same thing to sawrge when it came up and it feels like im repeating myself when i say that your in game conduct doesn't matter when you have a history of doing shit that anyone else would be put in a blacklist but the only reason you're even being considered again is purely nepotism and entrenchment. your forum behaviour, your general childish attitude of my way or the highway and if you disagree with me you're a mouthbreathing cunt is about as appealing as gonorrhoea.

but carry on clawing at shit that is irrelevant in a hope that you somehow can discredit what i am saying.

[iamgoofball]

>still talking about my connections

Check the thread title my man.

there's that "my name isnt in the title so im immune to being criticized about not actually being qualified to weigh in" thing again, i wonder if he'll realize that doesn't work lmao

Not that I have a stake either way but a criticism of character is kind of relevant in a trialmin review thread. Criticising the character of someone laying down criticism in these threads is ad hominem.

Better to defend yourself than attack them back.

i feel like oranges physically cannot post something though without some sort of character assassination attempt when he gets called out. which is most definitely a sought after admin trait i guess.

y'all can get a chance to attack my character when my trialmin review comes up... which i can assure you is never, so sit tight guys you'll get your chance.

why should i not take what kor said at face value my man. he's an authority figure in this and he said that you said that if you didn't quit you would actually abuse your powers.

that's not a good trait to have when you have the potential to cause damage to the server. sorry, but if was in charge of hiring you for a job and someone gave me a reference saying "he can tell when he's going to cause trouble and will quit his job when that happens" im not going to hire you. end of.

[iamgoofball]

you are doing the exact shit you're complaining about him doing

Be the change you want to see

[ColonicAcid]

oh my god my man how many times do i have to say that my behaviour LITERALLY doesn't matter right now lol.

jfc, i'm not trying to be an admin, oranges is. i aint perfect and i know i don't have the skills nor the personality to be an admin, which is why I'M NOT AN ADMIN nor will i ever be.

[Doctor Pork]

Colonic I'm not sure what you really want. You say "he can't be an admin because he'll fuck shit up" but also "he can't be an admin because he knows when he's about to fuck shit up and he'll just quit" so which is it, or is it not that at all and this is a personal beef and you just don't want to see oranges get more responsibilities?

He's honest and dependable, plus he knows when he's starting to burn out and is willing to step back until he feels comfortable taking the reigns again. What qualities exactly are you looking for in a member of our team?

[ColonicAcid]

i mean i completely missed the post by kor before i made the prior posts so let me sum it up.

• he's shown that he has very little respect for the community, look @ the myriad of situations brought up by people, star wars spoilers etc.
• he's personally said that if given the opportunity when he's burnt out he'll either make a mistake as an admin or purposely do something to detriment the server, which one of those will happen is yet to be seen.
• on the above point i guess we can give him credit for the fact that he has the self control to actually quit before this happens but the question now is why give admin powers to someone like that, look @ my job analogy, if i told an employer that when i get sick of my job im going to fuck up somewhere whether that is with malice or without he's probably not going to hire me now is he.


though honestly at this point i dont even know why im continuing to post my opinion doesn't mean shit LOL

y'all do the right thing on this regardless it really doesn't affect me that much either way.

[Lazengann]

If we're using shitty job analogies I'd feel better about having a driver who knows when he's too tired to drive instead of one who drives regardless

[Pepper]

has oranges ever admitted he is wrong

[Armhulen]

has oranges ever admitted he is wrong

has he ever been wrong

[Nabski]

has oranges ever admitted he is wrong

has he ever been wrong

He advocated for some players rule 0's due to their history of administrative issues long before we acted on it. Clearly a good judge of what needs to be done.

[Xhuis]

has oranges ever admitted he is wrong

has he ever been wrong

In a very large amount of cases, he has, yes. I know it's very hard to convince you of something once you've decided on it, but does his behavior in the past year or so really not reflect that? Constant prods, fucking around, and deliberately antagonizing people should not be considered "not wrong" as an administrator.

[oranges]

• he's personally said that if given the opportunity when he's burnt out he'll either make a mistake as an admin or purposely do something to detriment the server, which one of those will happen is yet to be seen.

now you just straight up lying, if I'm burned out, I'll quit, that's it.

I won't fuck shit up and I won't destroy things, I'll just leave.

[oranges]
