For me, it depends on who stays and who goes As for me, I am staying here. And I am Never going to join that other site, so don't ask. Some people can't seem to grasp the concept of someone being so busy that they only have about 5 minutes to go to this website, not because they don't want to, but because they have no other choice. The staff will get thier powers back, we just have to wait for Kenny to have a few minutes of free time. And as for Kenny's "Other Forum Thinggy" It happens to be called Fantasy Soft, a COMPANY! (Which I happen to be the VP of) IMO If Kenny only has a few minutes of free time, he should spend it their, because it is a hundred times more important than THIS forum, to be blunt. That is my whole reasoning for me taking control of this forum for Kenny, but there are those of you that think I wanted control because I had some sinister plan to become dictator or something. If you want to leave, Fine you do that. But as soon as Kenny reads this, I'm sure he will give you a nice fat ban. I'm sorry to everyone else that I wasn't directing this post to (The first part was for Dark Prince, the second part I think everyone can figure that out) And I'm sorry if I am sounding like a complete @ss, but the slightly pisses me off. The staff get cut and then someone decides to basically STEAL this site because they can't "take it anymore". Grow Up, deal with it, there are always going to be those that want to tear apart a group of people you just have to get over it when they are successful *so to speak*

no one is 'stealing' a site... and i know what his other 'forum thinggy' is.. if you actually took the time to pull your head out of your ass to look around.. EVERYONE IS TIRED OF THIS SH!T.. this is a free site.. who is stealing? plus im not the only member to make a new site to move to.. so blah.. i've said before that i don't care anything about powers.. who does.. i hold enough in the real world to satsify me(practically none) we are all just trying to avoid all this power stealing and bullsh!t.. i'd stay here.. i don't care.. i was simply trying to do something for the other members.. if no one wants to join that forum.. don't.. stay here.. its up to yall.. im looking for the preservation of the attitudes and fun haven for our members.. thats all.. ill be back to finish this later.. gotta eat!

Well that's the thing. If OT only has a few minutes of free time to run this site he should give somebody else who has time to spare the same amount of power he has so they can run things when he's not avaliable. I don't mean any disrepect towards OT but it just seems strange that he gets rid of the powers of all the admins except himself and keeps making these staff changes without really telling us anything. EDIT: Gah, I need to learn to type faster or get a faster internet connection.

i dunno what to do. i'll join soon i guess, but if it's gonna be successful, everyone HERE has to get over THERE. we have to do some mass PMing to make this work, but OT is the only one that can do that fast. also, i got a feeeling OT will be upset, and some members might stay loyal to him and stay here while others will go to the new one ST made. we have to be more organized about this if it's gonna work out, cause right now all i see is chaos i think a mass email would work much better cuz most members might have forgotten about this place, so they'll remember and go to the new one. and yea i know o.t is super busy, but problems will keep occuring and he won't be around to fix them. if the forum got hacked again and the hacker really screwed things up, and o.t is busy, how are things gonna get fixed? i think the best idea would be to move to a safer forum. proboards is way too easy to hack. i'm sick and tired of it. and yea i really don't want to move. this was the 1st forum i ever joined online and my favorite. but i don't want to see it getting hacked or anything like that anymore so i gotta go. o.t is a great guy but with his lack of participation in this forum, it won't go anywhere anymore but downhill.

ST, if you have already got yours running and you know what you are doing then we will go with yours. This shizzle is complicated. ;D Neo, shut up. So Kenny will ban us, so what? If we have moved I hardly see how that bothers us. Bully for him with his own company. But we want a DBZ Forum. And if he don't care about it, we do. So we shall have our own.

I registered on their site...It shouldn't really matter. I don't know why everyone's making such a big p*ss out of this...

NV, what does it matter whether or not we move? It is the godd*mn INTERNET and no one should be vying for power - and if they are, I think they need to sort out their life. Power over a few computer screens? That matters why? Anyway, I don't see how it is any concern of yours or OT's where we go or what we do with our free time. Anyway, if his company is so important, then what does it matter what happens to this one?

Grow Up, deal with it, there are always going to be those that want to tear apart a group of people you just have to get over it when they are successful *so to speak* Maybe, if you hadn't come to take the choice of taking everyone's powers and leaving us without anyone to really take care of this forum and without consulting members first, nobody would be so upset...u did a lot of stuff during the time u were in charge without asking any of the members...I got pissed off too, and I've never even been a staff member so you can't say I got mad because someone took my powers...I just got mad of having someone just playing with the forum, doing stuff "just because" without asking for opinions or at least informing people why those actions were being taken. The final thing that made people feel like this was Fluffy leaving...she was probably the most charismatic member during all the time I've been on the forum, and if it hadn't been for all the bunch of sudden changes that ONLY YOU AND OT had agreed on, she, or the rest of us wouldn't have gotten so tired, bored, depressed, etc, etc....

I think Neo was just trying to make the site better then it already is, dont blame him.
Anyhow, I think its going to take a LONG TIME, to get a known as this forum is, and back to number one.

God...u didn't understand my post did you?...I explained there why I think he made the wrong moves. In what way did he make the forum better? Tell me, please...if he had wanted to help the forum, he should have tried to get the members' opinions before doing anything drastic. And if you say there's no reason for moving to a new forum, tell me why you think that way, don't you see that WE HAVE NO STAFF, AND THE OWNER IS NEVER HERE!!!! Again, I understand that OT doesn't have time, but it's not our fault either...we are the ones who are active, and we are the ones who make the forum be alive, not just the owner. If I had the chance, I would help to make everyone stay, since I think OT is a nice guy, but for me, the whole community is first. If for any reason OT doesn't come early enough to make some changes, I would probably be leaving 100%.

all right, i've done some thinking and i want EVRYONE TO READ THIS ENTIRE POST PLEASE! all right, this is what i think. i respect OT, but he's too caught up in something that really matters to him. he's making a game company, a company that he hopes to be his job in the future. so that's probably why this site isn't first on his agenda. ST, i think its good you thought a head and made a new forum, but it might've been best to wait a bit, i'll explain why in a moment, but now that it's up it's all cool. so this is what i propose to you guys. (i'll also be e-mailing this to OT for consideration). first, we get OT to do a mass PM and tell all the memebrs that we are moving. second, OT pretty much shuts down the site. all the boards are deleted except posibly the forum announcement board. then, we'll fix the header so it says that we have moved to the new forum that ST made. we can have one thread in the forum announcment board giving more detail to the members. after seeing this, we'll hopefully get most of the members from here to migrate to the new one and continue on as before. so in order for the forum as a whole to survive, we have to give up this domain and switch. OT jsut obviously doens't have the time. like i said, i ahve the utmost respect for him, but i think it's time he stepped down and solely concentrated on his career and leave the forum to us. either he could make these announcements that i listed above, or he can give someone the power to do it. so please, everyone, tell me what you think of this idea. the reason i thought of this is that what maf said was true, everything on here will go downhill, especially with the leaving of juney. that's a HUGE hole no one is gonna fill. so we should start fresh on the new site. so everybody, please, tell me what you think of this proposition. like i said, i'm going to e-mail OT and hopefully he'll premit it. if he doesn't, it'll really suck because already members are siding with this forum or the other, and i don't want that kinda division. so let's get all the memebrs on to the new board and start fresh. thanks for hearing me out

I absolutely agree on that 100%.... Excellent thinking. But I don't see that the members are siding with one forum or the other, except for Neo Vegeta and Hieislove...and neither of them has given a good enough reason why we shouldn't move... At least from Hieislove, I know that if something like your proposal is done, she will stay active in the new forum...I don't know about Neo Vegeta coz he wants us to be under the same old control for some reason...

We're number one , thats a good reason. I'm not all for the move but I guess staying active wouldnt hurt. But I dont think anyone cares for that Theres nothing I can do, but be a good member, so on with the move,

we'll still be number 1, just on a different forum with a new leader.
and goshin, i completely agree with you. but we should mass email all the members 1st and a mass pm in case they don't check their email.
