Un-Work

2 05 2008

This is TAZZzz’s avatar… trust me, it’s cooler than he is.

Recently I was given the opportunity to work on an Anime Forum. Ya know, make the header, some colours, change buttons etc. I thought it would be a good deed to do and good to sharpen me up.

It took longer than expected, but was done and all seemed well. I was made Admin by TAZZ, the who seems to run the stuff. Well, later I check the forum, ya know, maybe a week later. Most of the changes I made were un-done. A little annoyed at this, I ignored it at first. Would have appreciating a reply to let me know my works were not good enough, or the style was not desired, would have let me know at the start, and I wouldn’t have wasted my time… not to mention avoid making me see my work disappear, which is generally a shit feeling. I did various other works for TAZZ. Banners, ads, things like that… which seemed to be the only standing work left.

TAZZ seemed to be a energy-full bad typist with too many ideas. Starting an Anime forum and actually getting a decent community in it is rare enough, and should satisfy any ameteur internet-er. But then setting up a SPECIFIC Anime forum was kind of pushing it, and was bound to be a minimum community forum only for the Admin’s joy. Whatever. TAZZ asked me to do it up. I made a header for a start, wasn’t the best, but I got it done and it was to see how the forum was gonna look with my colour styles in. TAZZ had closed down the forum for a while and announced it so I could work freely in the forum without people seeing it’s general, ugly process into a nice looking forum.

Then the really annoying things started happening. Every time I entered the ADMIN panels to do my magic, I was prompted with a VERY annoying log-in pop up. Apparently, it was for security reasons. I don’t know about most places, but logging into an admin account once is enough, and I doubt the person is just going to DECIDE to be someone else when they browse to the COLOURS & IMAGES section of the ADMIN PANEL. But, this guy TAZZ has a paranoia of HACKERS or something. Passing it off as general stupidity, I continued on like the patient guy I am. He removed it accordingly after giving him some emails to think about, which he seemed to act like I never sent a few days later.

I continued again, with the log-in screen back again. Not wanting to deal with it again, I left and didn’t edit the forum for a day or so. Returning, the log-in screen only opened up twice, then disappeared, allowing me to move much more smoothly. I noticed the header had been removed, and comments left by TAZZ that it was weird so he took it away. As anyone could guess, I was quite pissed at this.

I continued, again being the very generous and patient guy I am. Testing around with the colours for about half an hour, I started to save them and change the width of the forum, seeing how things looked. The outcome was alright. Not bad, not good, but it would have been easier to judge if the header I had made was still there. I made more images, like thread and subject images as well as Forum Announcements and Stickies. These were decent enough but the process to make them takes a while, having do to different ones in different programmes, like FLASH 8 and Adobe PS CS3. Saving them as PNG and JPEG files. Then uploading the to PB, re pasting them to the forum in right order. It takes an hour+ but even more effort. I’m very fast when it comes to things like that, so I can only imagine someone who is better at images, but not as good with files and uploading as I am.

Happy with the 2 hour work I did, I decided to leave it at that for a few hours and have something to eat. Returning, I saw all my changes had been binned, and another stupid comment left by none other than TAZZ, saying it looks weird.

I could go on about how much shit he kept doing, but instead, I will give you the list of emails we shared during this whole process. As you can see, they’re quite recent to the date of this Blog post.

I’m trying to work on your Initial D forum but it constantly prompts me asking me to enter my password. Also, a lot of things don’t work properly.

Another thing is that your ANIME forum has changed its icons. Who did that? If you’re not happy with the buttons, always tell me. But it’s too late now, that forum is done I’m working on this Initial D forum.

But if I can’t have a stable enviornment, free of hackers and un-informed changes then I really won’t be able to work on this man. Get your act together.

I can’t go on MSN, I’m on my laptop. And by get your act together, I mean make sure you have your forum functioning before getting me to work with it. It’s not like I’m angry dude, I’m just a little pissed. I mean, if the forum keeps asking me to loging (doesn’t happen with any other place) for every page I load, it’s wasting my time, seriously.

I know you signed up for the board with forumotion but christ, I doubt this happens with other users. And… it’s really not my problem, dude. Check around the forum, see if you’re getting the same shit as me, try and fix it. If you can’t, then there’s nothing I can do. I mean, I do graphics, that’s it.

So like, do you have enemies or something that try hack your site often? Either way, your sites seem to be under attack a lot. I’m not sure if I wanna get involved with that. Nothing personal or anything.

Hang on there. First of all don’t even begin to insult me. If you’re letting idiot FRIENDS of yours making mistakes then you are obviously not good at choosing who you should put in power of your websites.

So you’ve never been hacked, there was just a mistake and you’re putting that up IN CASE you get hacked. Sorry to say dude but I really don’t buy that. I mean, I’d really only worry about being hacked if I was threatened, or it happened before. So you’re either lying, or stupid.

Further more, don’t begin to ask questions like, “u doing this or not…” to a person who’s tried to fit your jobs in to his busy schedule just to be nice. You think I get anything out of this? Basically I do this to get reputation, friends and it does feel good to help people. But from me simply asking you to get your act together before I work on a project, for you to demand me to “get my ass on MSN” your general UNFRIENDLY attitude and either paranoid-filled or foolish decision to protect your forum from one idiots that you let run the place, I really don’t think there is anything for me to gain from this.

Either start thinking about who you’re talking to and fix the forum, or continue to bathe in your paranoia to hackers and leave your website completely un-fit to modify fluently.

I don’t know what’s your problem dude. Everything I do for you you just get pissy at. I put up a new header and then go to change some of the colours, but you remove the header before I even touch the colours. I change the colours and then go for some buttons… you take away them all.

How the FUCK do you suppose I get ANY work done here if you keep un-doing it all? I told you this would take about a week, so it’s gonna look worse before it looks better. It’s not gonna look pretty while I’m doing it, and I thought that was the whole point of closing it so viewers don’t see… you being all PERFECTIONIST and all.

I’ve really come to realise you’re annoying as hell to work with, and throughout all the forums I’ve moderated, edited and sites I’ve made, you have got to be the most un-professional to work with. I don’t really know how I can say any of this WITHOUT it being personal, but you’re basically impossible to work with, and anyone who can stand you is either exactly like you, or something out of this world. I’d usually say get your act together before I work on it again, but I’ve had enough of your constant bullshit. It’s a shame it has come to this, but I feel no gilt at all here. I’m known as a patient guy, did you know that? Yeah, think about that.

So from now on, man, do the bloody site yourself. I’m moving on to something better than wasting my time.

It can’t be pro if I keep getting idiots messing it up while I’m in mid-edit. I also don’t care what emails you get, the site should have been locked, remember? So I could work without that shit. And if you’re really gonna discard all my work from a few people who say it looks bad for being IN THE PROCESS of editing, then your a passive person or a slave to what people think of your sites.

Like I said, I’ve had enough of your stupid bullshit and immature emails.You obviously can’t grasp that it can’t be completed in 5 seconds and that it will look bad before it looks better. Please leave me alone and don’t waste my time any further. I really don’t have time for people like you.

Goodbye, Myles.

wow that was so touching XD w.e man.

cya


There’s a lot of back-story to this, but none of it doing anything different thatg further proving this guy’s stupidity.

On a lighter note, DL is on the rise! Yep, the best forum in the world, Devil’s-Lair is coming back from the dead! CaT(the mother) and Veira are piecing it back together as if pumping it full of Vital Stars (L)

It’s going to be on a seperate host, but that does not matter. Good news from their end, and I can’t wait to return to the lair, it’s like my E-Home and I’ve missed it, AND them… and all the insanely awesome forum members. Fingers crossed!

Lol, Well then, i see this is still up their, well somebody has a bitching issue, as i recall, Your quote after the so called break you had, To told me you had finished it, and i never just REMOVED your data from the site, I left you well informed plain and simple, that you simply did not have what it took, and you must be pretty self richous to go through all that trouble to write this just to vent, Lol the site is still up but i stoped maintaining it a long time ago, Id go ahead and quote what you have posted on this blog, however, Writing this was a waste enough, Just stoped by in the end to let you know, You’re a talentless fool, You forgot to post all the other talks we had, its nice how you skipped out, and as for my apparent illiteracy, Its called not giving a Rats Ass, A choice rather then a mistake, of course, you clearly have no common sense, To post this to feel better about yourself is quite funny, in fact i think I’ve visited this blog multiple times since it was posted, laughing each time, Long story short, I asked you to do a job for me, gave you instant Admin Status, and let you do your thing, in fact i was very inactive once i gave you the job, You know, My life, I gave you plenty of time to finish the job, i told you i needed it done A.s.a.p, as i said, why don’t you post your bitching as well instead of guilt tripping anyone who reads this into thinking I’am an ass whole and you are the fucking queen of england. Not that its any of your business, but now a days, i am taking classes to get my certificate for a journey mans mechanic, you know, a proper life, To think i actually took the time to write this is still baffling me as i type it, In conclusion, You’re one sad kid, I had plenty of people who had worked on the site after your temper tantrum, Did quite beautiful jobs of it, and advertising, was great, We had 50 + Viral adverts which were bringing in Loads of traffic, in all, i just got bored of it, 3 years of running that site was too much, especially with another Initial D site being my competitor with over 50.000K+ Members and almost a decade on the web, it was impossible at that point to draw in any New Users, Of course the drifting scene has increased dramatically since then, My mistake for giving up on the site, Could have turned into something really unique, Any who, Cya, Hope this blog of yours made you feel better.

I don’t believe it lol. You’re still sore about this literally YEARS later? You know, I forgot about you for so long and I haven’t visited this blog for ages. You call me sad? Here you are digging up an incident that happened fucking years ago and all you can say is the same bullshit as before. You haven’t changed at all I can see which is a shame because you weren’t THAT bad of a guy but it turns out you’re still spiteful and immature.

I really don’t give a flying fuck what bloody courses you’re doing or what the hell happened to that site. It’s funny you think I care though. And please, you’re really not fooling anyone saying how mad you think you are making that post there. It’s fucking long so you had lots of time to close the window and say ‘fuck this shit’ but you didn’t.
You know, if you tried to talk to me again after all this time with some respect and maturity, I would’ve been okay with it and let the past be the past but I guess you couldn’t show even a trace of integrity. Well done.

What point is there, WAY back then, I tried, but you didn’t care, I typed my name in google and found this, After reading it, I obviously pisses me off that you would go that far to type that much about me in the first place, Of course, its called getting MAD, the past is the past as you said, before i go, Il admit, What i wrote above, was pure emotion and anger, nothing to do with who i am personality, I hate talking about private things over the internet, however, The first time i went here i had wanted to talk to you, but after reading that after all this time, its just KINDA hard to be nice, anyway.. Thanks

Add me if you choose. MSN
I don’t care about my site.
But if you want to talk, your choice.
Clearly if i was as hateful as you think, i would not keep
coming back, maybe i felt bad, but as i said, reading it.
Lead to me being passive aggressive,
