Please do not give up on this, I believe better moderation is needed for the more opinionated of us on here. Do this for fun, do not worry about what the negative muppets on here have to say.

I for one would love to see what you come up with.

You surely can provide links to where I was very vocal and threatening. Let's not forget that you lost your moderator status after that episode which should be enough to show that you have a distorted view of what really happened.

No I can't, the threads have been deleted off EAB; otherwise I would have gladly provided.

...but don't worry, I'm sure the majority of EAB would have read you BS in that thread; and can probably back me up... but honestly, I can't see anyone being bothered to get involved in this discussion

Oh that's funny

...as per usual you don't know the complete story; I resigned as I'd finally had enough of running EAB for 5 years straight by myself, with little help and having to deal with people like you and "Vampire" threads.

The thread where you were constantly bullying me into making a statement and I didn't make one. Yes. Surely I was very vocal in that thread...

Oh I bullied you did I?

Yup, you're the good guy, ROFL

...and of course the Vampire and team don't distribute software illegially / hack ROMs etc.

Jesus man, I've never met anyone so deluded as yourself.

I think that leaving junk lying around for others to clean up (or leaving easily observable bugs to "the WHDload team to fix") is lazy, bad practice and respectless to the people who actually fix old broken code. I don't understand how this can be seen as a controversial point of view but well, it's a free world.

Oh, yes, he is. He abused his mods power by bullying me into making a statement and then locked my account (as he stated himself).

No, I banned you after repeated threats towards EAB.

That's was my job as a moderator, to keep EAB safe.

I was actually very lenient as a GMod; most other sites would be instant ban for the stuff you and others sometimes do.

It is a 35 year old computer, people dev for fun, not for commercial reasons. Get a life no one really cares, turn game on, turn game off. Simple

All games I've seen lately shut down clean so what on earth you on about
