    Who is Deora's mage?b:angry
    TELL ME NOW PLEASE!!!!b:cry

    I'll never tell! b:shutup

    and seriously Born_Free its like Im trying to get across a point to a broken record...
    North American based game = North American based times, suited for North Americans, don't like that, play a game closer to wherever you live

    That is the point, and tw and events etc are not exactly are great times for people here in North America either...

    What confuses me the most though it that I get my post edited out (last one where frankie edited) for calling you a thickhead... but you are perfectly fine typing all that out...

    Starting to have reservations about Deora as mod...

    Partly because, as an EU player who has never complained about wanting this game to be better tailored to my times and has in fact argued against other non-US players who whined about it, I absolutely loathe being bundled up into a group with them simply because I don't live in the US. How ignorant.

    That and I'm starting to see that the tone is a lot more brash and near arrogant then I thought it was; which does not make for a good moderator.

    Hope, you're right (: I applied because I felt the forums needed attention, but yes taking care of Jasper would be a slight set back :/

    I've actually pulled away from the off topic, I'm basically just maintaining and RP thread there now

    I really like this thread. Aside from the few arguments, it's going really well (:

    I specifically stated several times, I only care about the *** hats that whine about it constantly. People like you that accept that is a North American game and times are better suited (but still suck) for NA players

    Hope that clears it up again.

    This is like the 100th time I've had to post all this out...

    International (adj): Of or having to do with more then one country.

    Last I checked NA counts as well more then one country so the name is technically correct...

    International(adj): Independent of national boundaries; common to all people

    So if PWI is common to all people, then the name is technically incorrect.......

    Doesn't state how many people it is common to

    If they wanted to make it readily made for everyone on the planet global would be a far better term to use

    So if they wanted it to be made for North Americans only, North America would be a far better term to use instead of International.

    While that may be true, they didn't use that as then it would make more sense to region block to only NA. Considering there isn't a region block doesn't specifically limit it to NA, but it is targeted for NA with players from outside NA being able to access it, that is really the only point...

    And yet, if it is targeted for NA, it wouldn't have been named International. By naming it International, they are making it common to all people, including those outside of North America. If they had targeted it for NA, it would have made sense for them to put a region block, because the players their game would be targeted at would be the ones playing it. Since it is not regionally blocked to NA, we can conclude that it is indeed geared towards all players, and not just North Americans.

    Servers in US, times for US, event times suck no matter where you are even for me they are terrible

    Either way, I give up on this damn debate as there will always been someone that says I'm wrong no matter how hard I try...

    So ehh.. what was this thread about again? b:sweat

    About how Born_Free derailed it into this NA v. EU thread again...

    Right here
    Deora, I have to say, is one of the most biased, rude, and bitter people I've met on forums. Does anybody else remember the wonderful post that s/he made about those who live in Europe or the Middle East, or South America? Pretty much anybody who ISN'T living in either Canada or the United States?

    Yeah.
    THAT is why I hate her. Or him. Or it. As if I cared.

    Since the application thread is closed, can we discuss this now?

    Rawrgh - I'll vote yes, but watch the attitude.
    LovesTragedy - neutral
    Deora - yes, intelligent and experienced, maybe a bit too 'sharp' :P
    Dsholder - neutral
    Longknife - no
    Grippielover - no, no experience
    Zoe - very NO
    buttercupcruella - no opinion
    FuzzyWuzzy - NO.
    LifeHunting - NO.
    Krisnda - neutral
    FaelinRain - no, not experienced
    Barber - yes, with verification of experience
    Hanman5000 - no, haven't been here long enough
    LOKI_- neutral
    Kiyoshi - NO.
    Dantell - no opinion xP
    Pressa - neutral
    KrittyCat - neutral
    PAYUPSUCKA - neutral
    Nowitsawn - neutral
    SerenityMare - yes
    Emmanueljr - no, haven't been here long enough
    Aesthor - conditionally yes, but I would miss her great posting style xP


    'neutral' or 'no opinion' genrally mean to me that they might make fine mods, I just don't have enough of an opinion to vote either yes or no.

    I'm not posting my reasons for NO because I don't want to start a flame war. I do have very valid reasons why I post them.

    Sorry to those I voted no on, nothing personal. :P

    Please post your opinions too, keep it somewhat civil. b:bye


    This thread makes me laughb:laugh What loser **** would get serious about some *** forums? These discussions part of the forum is full of poofs and bell ends. No one gives a ****. I'd stick to sub-forums only tyvm, and if the forums turn out the same way as these trolls then I'd say **** the forum.

    If that is the case, then I think it is safe to say that YOU would "get serious" about some forums.
