Question:
Should Sharpie continue as Spa Mod?
Option 1: Yes
votes: 11
Option 2: No
votes: 10
Please explain why you would do this. It will lead to your downfall. Everyone is mad at you. Like I say to Ungatt, I don't think you think about what you do before you do it (hence, the bombing). My 3 major issues with your campaign are:
-Locking: Locking Last Word is a horrible offense. The locking of other topics depends on the content, but locking all the topics on the first page is just wrong.
-Security: Firetooth has got on your account several times and messed with things. This is unacceptable.
-Government: You made no government. No one got involved. It was just you. And Firetooth.
I am withdrawing my approval and support from your campaign. Ungatt and myself worked hard to keep the spam flowing, but when you messed things up, we could do nothing against your mod powers.
I am putting forth a vote of no confidence in Sharptooth, Mod of Spa. Please stand with me. I will be running for Spa Mod at the election, should it happen. My first concern will be to have the admins put the Spa in lock down for a day or so, so I and trusted people can clean it up. Then Spa shall be reopened, better than ever. Don't vote for another politician. Vote Rakefur!
Oh for crying out loud.
Sharp is a pretty boring mod on the whole, but honestly you guys take this far, far too seriously. I'm considering not visiting spa if people don't tone things down a little bit, because what started as a fun joke and good way to bolster activity is just starting to annoy me. Dirty Harry and housewife Unga both did good things for activity and were fun, but I don't think Sharp's done so because:
- His platform that was he wouldn't do anything.
- Everybody complains everytime he does anything
I know this thread is written (partially) in jest, I'm referring to things on a whole. Spa doesn't necessarily need a spa mod.
DOuble post, sorry.
If you want to do this right, you should put it in spa and tone it down a little bit. Putting this down as a serious poll when it's related to spa is a bit OTT. Also, less lines which could be seen as flaming like.
QuoteLike I say to Ungatt, I don't think you think about what you do before you do it
Oh please. Gimme a break. You know it was going to get locked down there. And Sharpie did the same thing to Ungatt.
So let it lie.
The Spa is a silly joke forum and it deserves a mod who is willing to deal out some silliness. It's only the Spa, just make some new topics if you can't post in the old ones.

Exactly what I thought, lol.
Who actually cares if last word got deleted, let alone locked? It's just 900 words of nonsense. People in spa are starting to take themselves too seriously. (or should I say, sriously)
We take ourselves seriously because it is the only forum where posts can be made without vets going "Down with the N00b! Heathens why would you post you stupid louts."
Because it is so not serious, I feel it is a great place for newer ppl to go to just have fun. Most of the rest of forums is not fun and full of inflated egos. It is serious. At least the egos in Spa make fun of themselves.
Last word is a legacy of old. It is the oldest most active thread in there.
Sorry we fill up your "unread posts since last visit."
Sharps knew he was getting a hard job. Sorry if it is effecting him irl. The spa mod has to be on a lot (hence why there shouldn't be a mod).

Do you really believe that? Plenty of posts outside spa aren't game related, and only a few people have that attitude, and those that do usually get called out on it.
As for the rest, why does it being the oldest thread matter? This is my point, you need to be less serious about spa and just enjoy it for what it is.
lol guys. Who give a . Stop being so serious.

Tell this to Krowdon, she is spazzing out kinda hard down there. Camaclue also. The spa is never somewhere that I stay, but lately it is hilariously bad. Unintentionally hilarious, because of the seriousness that people are treating Ungatt and Sharptooth with. I am utterly shocked that anyone would take me seriously about deleting the spa's (95% horrible) threads. I don't even care what goes on down there beyond that it stays there.
LOL. Good work Sharpy. I hope you are spa mod forever.
After all that complaining, yesterday was the most active day so far in January., in terms of most online, posts and topics created.

Zactly guy. That's the point.
The point of the Spa is to have a place to have fun. Lately, the fun started leaving. I couldn't care less about Sharpie's mod powers, which is why doing nothing was a pretty good idea. When he did stuff, that sorta ruined our fun. And so we took that seriously because the stuff he did messed up what was happening. He made it so the spammers ran the board completely without any mod help. When he messed up the system, that's when we got angry.
Sharp should get re-elected.
Sharp should be Spa Mod for life.

My levels of pure rage caused by this comment cannot be expressed on these forums.
It just isn't possible.
sharpy ftl!
for the lose?
Faster Than Light obviously!
as was that response.
well thunk.
Sharpie must stay in character or he is fired!

Good! Sorry Ungatt, but the level of awesome that Sharpy has attained as spa mod is far greater than you can ever hope to reach.
It's easy to pick on an aging and uneducated spammer. It's easy but it ain't dignified!
I'm actually really not sure why people think one is any better than the other. They both did what they were supposed to do, and that was create conflict so that people would post more in cesspool 101.
^true. The only reason I prefer Sharp is because of the whiners, lol. Plus Unga never did anything as outrageous as sharp is, he did more stuff with themes and such.
At least with Unga, we could actually do soemthign with how Spa was run. Sure, the Spa is supposed to be fun. But the Federation is now all but moot, Last Word is locked, and he's basically running it like any other discussion forums.. Ungatt (sorry) had no real powers. The position is not meant to be actually used to mod, I think, it's really just a joke.
UNGATT FTAPUW!
(ungatt for the absolute, positively unrestricted win!)

Because the amount of butthurt and whining currently being generated is pretty epic.
Here are the active spammers right now:
Briar
Sharpie (obviously)
Rakefur
Ungatt
Krowdon
Cam
Muse
Me
Raggon
Trolls
We are the only people who can call the cesspool a cesspool. You have to call it the Spa until you spam actively.
DC's right. You guys have no right to judge our beautiful cesspool that even the sewers turned their noses up at.
Sharp should actually just delete a ton of huge threads for the butthurt. :P

Disgusting notion. Absolutely not.
It's a cesspool to those who are affected by it. You aren't. SO CALL IT A SPA!
Coined the term, will use it how I please. It's a cesspool whether or not you're whining at one another or not.
Agree with kilk, spa is a cesspool.
