He no longer hold authority, and instead of doing anything to fix the "problems" with the club, he complains about the current leaders and how things aren't like the "old days".

Also, hold you tongue when addressing an authority figure, you little bastard. I'm sick and tired of hearing Starks complain and unless he has some agreeable and well-defined suggestions to improve the club, I'm in no mood to listen to his bullshit.

I'm really sick of getting angry at people, so the bollocks stops now.

No. I'm tired of getting bullied around as I watch this club destroy itself. Every time I try to do something to steer this club back in the right direction, its you guys who rally the club against my efforts. I'm sorry, but the only thing I can do is bitch. I'm not allowed to do anything else.

Past leaders of this club (including myself) have been open to ideas from its members. You guys simply just tune out the dissenters and go about your business. Do you honestly think that Tink, Miroku, or Inuyasha (the other 3 people this club owes the majority of its existence and popularity to) would appreciate what you guys have done here? It is an undeniable fact that this club is ruled by cronyism.

Nobody ever makes suggestions, so that's a tad of a moot point.

Blah, I strive to please no one.

Cronyism is partiality to long-standing friends, especially by appointing them to public office without regard for their qualifications. The word "cronyism" is always used derogatorily.

His post was pointless and I'm sure he full well knows that.

Yes, it ended. New episodes haven't been produced since 2005.

Five seconds on Wikipedia would have told you that.

Not sure if i want new trinity blood episode's,Im not flaming it or anything like that, but it just never got me hooked and seemed kinds like a watered down hellsing.

I wasn't a fan, but at the same time, I'm sure new episodes or an OVA wouldn't hurt. The series does have a reasonably large fanbase.

Also, the novels are finally getting an English translation, I may pick one up and give it a read.

7 is a number, not a word. You should at least spell it out.

54 of MAR was pretty funny, especially how team MAR kept laughing and making fun of Alan for being so lame (alergic to cats).

Yay for cat girls! If this club ever goes down, the new anime club's title should involve cat girls.

Oh, goodie, pardon me whilst I dissect this.
Wonko - After he got control, kept this damned club ALIVE and ORGANIZED. Thwarted, as I understand it, multiple attempts by you to take it back.
Gendo - Honestly, seems like a slightly-less aggressive Wonko, minus just a few dashes of cool.
Haro - Okay, Starks, go die. Haro stays on topic, helps Gendo keep this place organized...need I say more?

Tink13
LLStarks

Tink doesn't really have time for this place anymore, as I understand it. I communicated with her for a while, and that was the impression I got. Her life, as of the last time I talked to her, was way off track and she was fixing it up.
As for you...let's see, seems to me that you've been inactive for over two months at least ONCE during the existence of this club, so that sounds to me like you lost all authority then, not to mention the time when you left.

Funny that I'm not under bad apples. Maybe you were just referring to authority figures, I dunno.

Anyways, DirectTV seems to be sucking horribly. About all the anime I COULD watch is on Encore WAM! and that's just Gokusen and Mirage of Blaze. Since I don't know how far into the series they've gotten, I don't want to come in and be all confused because I'm on the second to last episode or something.
God, at least I can watch Miyu and Shingu at my sister's house.

Response to Anime Club 2007-04-12 20:19:08


psyko, you and I both know that the only reason why I haven't had this club locked is because I still hang on to the glimmer of hope that I, or the people who run this club would make inroads to return this club to its former glory. I haven't seen such efforts. All I see are a bunch of rude hardliners oppressing all dissenters and muffling outside suggestions. You 3 rule by threatening users and by the sword. This club needs new leadership, and it doesn't need to be me.

This club shouldn't die or be locked. It doesn't need to be restarted. All it needs is a new leadership. Leaders who don't present themselves like arrogant assholes (myself and Wonko's bunch). If I had my way, it would be Trivia and the Dr. in charge. They are both charismatic and never boss people around.

I can't sit around and watch this club transform into the NG/A/... WE ARE NOT 4CHAN AND WE WILL NOT COMPARE OURSELVES TO THEM!

This is what I'm talking about. You are ignorant. You ignore the other issues presented my post. Why not address them in a responsible and leader-like manner? You're the one who holds power. Ignoring my ideas and not even responding them in a semi-polite manner only proves my point. You are far from the likable leader you aspire to be. You and Wonko never have anything nice to say. You guys are supposed to represent this club. Just take a look at how you present yourselves.

Also, NG /A/ may just be a name. But do you understand the things /a/ represents?

I have a general dislike of television, and anime on TV (especially for us less fortunates in Canada with just a basic satellite package) is stuff I either don't like, stuff I've already seen or shows running on a really poor schedule (BECK being the major culprit here, Much Music has ruined the series by pushing back airings and leaving massive gaps between episodes).

I'd kill for something like Direct TV on Comcast On Demand.

I don't really like the NG/A/ name..kind of wierd and wouldn't make sense to anyone who didn't already know.

This club has glory days? I don't see how it has changed that much. Of course lots of people have grown up and moved on, either to college or jobs or both, so there isn't a wide variety of users posting, but there is a steady stream of newcomers, and the Spam levels are the same as always.

Isn't it good enough that we've been talking about anime for over 1400 pages? Despite all the argueing and non-anime related stuff, eventually the topic always gets back to it...usually only taking one post.

The issue at hand is things aren't running the way you want them to, and instead of doing the mature thing and moving on, you're getting like an irritable child who wants his own way.

You are far from the likable leader you aspire to be.

I don't aspire to be anything, NG is far from an important part of my life. Running this club is something I do for fun.

Whiners like you ruin the fun.

You and Wonko never have anything nice to say.

Hahaha, shut up, lurk moar, etc.

Just because I have nothing nice to say to a bratty ex-leader does not mean I'm always this surly.

I'm not stupid, I'm active on the chan sites. Quit making a huge deal out of what the name "represents".

Most arguments would have ended by now, but instead of lettings things return to normal, Starks has to continue to blather even when we've found something else to talk about.

I'm sick of arguing with him.

It was really neat when they had the Anime Network PPV for a month last year. However, they will show some good stuff once in awhile.
