*on, not about. Had to correct it before someone whined to me about it (still can't edit posts, thanks admins).

Quote from: console on October 26, 2006, 02:04:45 AMAre we agreed it's not cool to delete ancient forum history (old posts) to re-balance your post count to some arbitrary "gimmick number" of 666? (Or any other gimmick number?)Why does it matter? Did I alter some type of storied forum history by doing so?

Nobody is going to go back to 2005 and read old threads. Who honestly cares?
I only did that because you guys kept changing my post count for your own petty reasons.

Incorrect. Several of us recently enjoyed re-reading a thread from 2004. This forum database was incorporated from the final xquake forums database, with the blessing of xquake's owner/sysadmin, and so goes back quite a ways. Nobody wants the forum history to be shredded full of holes.
Here's my recollection: - after you had been acting like a collosal wanker for months on end (which you gleefully claim credit for)
- and after you claim to have felt the timing and 2v2 nature of tourney IV was risky with respect to sucess, and unlike everyone else who remembered the previous 2v2 tourney and realized it would indeed be difficult, you claim to have purposely engaged your 'gimmick' in overdrive so as to by-design have your self expelled from a volunteer tourney admin position rather than face the difficulty (YOU COULD HAVE JUST BOWED OUT GRACEFULLY)
- after you engaged in spam to bring your final post count from 650 or so up to 666 to hasten your final (SECOND!!) dramatic exit from the forums - I became curious and bumped your post count from 666 to 667 to see what you would do (admittedly PETTY on my part, but look at the context here! Your second fake-dramatic-pseudo-permanent exit from the forums, followed by your spammy busrt of final posts to increment your post count to your pre-announced 666 gimmick figure.) - And: you did then delete one of your spam posts to nudge your post count back to 666. - Then I wondered, wow, how far is this tool going to push this '666' thing? Is he going to just keep deleting his spammy final posts? And so (again, for petty reasons, I admit) I bumped your post count up to 684 or something thereabouts. - After some time passed, I noticed not only had you FOR YOUR OWN PETTY REASONS managed to get your post count back to your dramatic 666 fancy final exit figure ("i won't post anymore--please believe my SECOND dramatic exit will be final"), but you had elected to do so by corrupting the oldest threads you had participated in: deleting your oldest posts, leaving holes in a number of old threads. - At this point, your ability to delete posts was suspended.
And so, I as again: Are we agreed it's not cool to delete ancient forum history (old posts) to re-balance your post count to some arbitrary "gimmick number" of 666? (Or any other gimmick number?)Regards,
You spend the most incredible amount of time making excuses and explaining yourself and your actions.
