Okay, this is my view on SR, the staff and some members at this moment in time. Please feel offended if necessary.

Okay, my view on SR…basically, it’s going down the pan. At least, UKChatforums that is. Y’see, all the regulars are leaving or being banned. This place is being taken over by crazed, spamming newbies. Yet, what I can’t see is why Lord H and Ashley have been banned and Up_In_Smoke and 117 Chief person haven’t. In a few years time, SR will have no older members, and this will all be down to the way things have been run.

Now’s for my views on the staffies. I’ll mention the ones I know.

Schroeder: Probably SR’s best staffie. She’s one of the only ones who can share a joke. She is also one of the only staff who help you with your problems.

Snuggly: He’s going crazy…I swear. He’s banning all these decent users. Why has Lord H gone? Cos Ali couldn’t take it that Lordy was right.

Bob: Bob’s cool, he got my name back. I never liked him at first, but now, I think he’s ONE of the best staffies here.

Brad: He’s also cool. Him, like Schro, is very helpful and also shares a joke.

The rest…well, they’ve all stayed the same, other then Loki, who I rarely see nowadays.

Members…who do I like and who do I dislike?

Herc: Why did I choose him first? Simply cos of his comments in Site Bugs. Basically, I’ll annotate what he wrote. He said I was childish. Does this mean it’s okay for him to be an immature prat, yet it isn’t for me? That’s what it sounds like to me.

Si Mysterio: I chose him next as he is probably one of the only members who I get on with at the moment. He’s cool, funny and loves wrestling. What a cool chappie.

Up_in_Smoke: I can sum him up in x amount of words. A-S-S-C-L-O-W-N!

The_King: I didn’t think SR employed immature staffies…until now. Obviously, it’s good now he’s not a staffie, but he’s still here. Not only does he do illegal games, but also he doesn’t want SR to know about it. Tut tut, naughty boy.

Basically, I’ll sum this up. Look at how crap SR has turned since I joined a year ago. Everything’s changing for the worst. Ho hum, this is boring me now. Let’s end it here. :c)

Heh, this post is making SR worse? I don't think so, I feel it's the way it's being run. What bad thing did I say about a staffie? And indeed, people do post negative stuff about me. So...if you can't beat them, join them. Lastly, I never set out to get attention (I could have done another leaving topic if I wanted that), I set out to post my views. I have the right to free speech, don't I? Thought so. :c|

I wish you didn't post that part. Now it looks stupid if I complain (which I was going to). Hmmm, guess I'll have to wait for the next time...

Well mister DW i think you had better stop yapping and do some listenin. Sure you may hate the staff here, but surely your life doesn't revolve around them. Or do they? Either way i am sayin why do gamers like us have to fork out £40 for games. I am sure most people in the age group aimed for, young peopel, struggle to make £30 let alone £40. So why not have games at £20 all the time so gamers are happy and the companys still get to play in thier big cash piles.

Where can you buy Butler Monkeys from?

Are they still free with 100 tokens from the side of suger puffs... or does that just get you a giant Honey Monster?

Oh dear. Yes, SR is getting worse. Why? No, not because of people like mAtt (who's resepcted by lots o' people!) but because of posts like this. Oh, and that master Chief guy. Basically, if you have an opinion on a Staff member, other user or anyone here for that matter, keep it to yourself. You wouldn't like me broadcasting negative stuff about you everywhere would you? No, I didn't think so. Maybe you would get the attention you did/didn't set out to get at the beginning of this posts, not by people feeling sorry for you, but because everyone has had enough of these topics.

Whats wrong with newbies? Also shouldn't you moan about games as well like the extoranot prices that we are faced with? Take this for example:
off a £39.95 game VAT is £6, reatail margin is £14, distribution a mere £1, Manufactoring costs £0.50, royalties £2, and the publisher gets about £16.50. Now if manufactor costs 50p then surely 20 quid will sufice as they can still make a massive profit.

Oh for God's sake stop moaning. It's a bloody internet forum!
The staff aren't here to entertain us, Christ, they don't even have to reply to the threads but they do.
You complain when they do, you complain when they don't.
MAKE YOUR DUCKING MINDS UP.

Why is it so hard to grasp the reason for Ashley's banning?
Are you stupid?
"Ooo he was a great poster, I loved him and stuff"
Shut up.
Lord H doesn't care he's been banned, why should you?

As for the GAD changing "tip". Why? Why change it? I don't get why you're having a hissy fit about it.
You shouldn't care, like you said, “I don't even attempt GAD, as it's nothing special to me.”

If you don’t like it here anymore…
Leave.


I’m sure one of you will post something about me brown nosing the staff. Go ahead. You see… I don’t care.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to talk about serious stuff, like boobs.
