So I need help getting all my friends back. Please go and spread the word that I have been IP banned.
Raymond was made a Root Admin again and said he is going to look into it for me when he gets home, but until then I would just like the users to know that I was IP banned for no reason.
-_-
It's better here anyway. ;D
That sucks but ya its better here too

What does it say when you try and login? Try a proxy -_-.
well looks like NS2 is about to fall, Hard.
Andrea! It's me!
I think you know what is to happen next. I am still not banned (:P) yet, so I can help you. NS2 is really just turning into a dictatorship full of lies. He banned you for telling the truth of what is going on.
Oh wait, one more thing! 4 new mods were picked, WITHOUT asking the current KoHs, like EJ promised they could pick...
This is bad.

He claims he messed with my permission masks and says I'm not banned. Yet every single computer I've tried that I used with the site come up with the IPS Driver error. That is the same error users that are banned get. Sometimes I can view the board but then when I go to log in it says that I do not have permission.
So YES I'm banned other wise I would be able to get in.

Actually, I'm not so sure. Sounds like there's something up, but it doesn't make sense.
If you're IP banned, you'll see the IPS driver error when you try to view the forum. I know this much for sure. However, that's only IP. Means nothing towards account bans. Using another computer shouldn't produce the same result. Another computer means another IP, unless you're in a specific network environment.
He may actually be right. If you're having the problem with multiple computers, it doesn't sound like a normal IP ban situation.

Hey Andrea, sorry to go a bit off topic, but whatever happened to Grimace? Wasn't he the one who "sold" NS2 to EJ in the first place? I'm sure he wouldn't allow what's happening now...
Don't worry. If something is going on with the ban, the Committee will find a way to help out. ;)

Unless all my IPs were banned. I had 3 with my account. EJ did tell one of the KoH that he messed with my permissions today. So he obviously messed something up so that I can no longer access the forum. He didn't ban my account. That I know, but he could have just banned the IP.

Grimce was never given access to the Admin CP. EJ said he couldn't trust him. He said he didn't want Grimce in the CP at all.
That's pretty low of him. He's just cutting out all the existing people in power and bringing in new ones to cover his tracks. =/

Precisely. I have to give him credit for this giant conspiracy. The people want power, he gives them power, they're loyal. They start to doubt him, and all of a sudden they're too busy to mod NS2 anymore. What a huge coincidence, right?
He hired so many new Locals and KoH.

If I had access to NS2 I could talk to Kodiack. I helped him out soooooooooooooo much and he trust me. I could tell him the truth and he would listen for sure. I have Arbok_X and Buleiras on MSN. Both I'm VERY good friends with. So they won't be a problem and I can tell them everything too. Tomsawyer I don't know him personally so I can't say.
I can tell you this. I now have 6-7 of his KoH staff on my side. They will do what it takes to bring Nsider2 back to the users. They will go against EJ until they are removed or step down.
Just so you all know though. This wasn't my intentions at all. I just wanted to post and be a normal user. I wanted to be part of the community and just enjoy myself. I wasn't upset at myself being removed because that's actually what I wanted. I got upset when Raymond was removed. Raymond maybe back, but that is because EJ is afraid he made a mistake. He is trying to protect himself now. I was content till that happened. None of this would be happening right now and I would be just posting happily had EJ not done this. Then when he messed with my account so I can't get on anymore. That was his biggest mistake.
I can't do anything to Nsider2. I have no power. I'm not a hacker. I'm usually just a nice person. Yet I have a LOT of friends. After over 4 years on Nsider and becoming one of the most popular users you don't get by without your friends. EJ took me away from my friends now. I'm still not mad at him. He wants to make a business and make money and build a community. That's good for him. He can do that. Yet we are Nsiders! We ARE a community! We stick to our friends. EJ doesn't know anything about Nsiders! Sure he had an account, but all he did was advertise. He's built communities before, but nothing this big. He wants to show people what he can do and that's great. Yet when you start to mess with others just because you don't agree and when you use people as he has. That will come to bite him in the butt!
All I care about is being with my friends. I wasn't even planing on being that active. So it is them now causing a revolt. I don't plan to lead anyone to war but I will enjoy this entertaining and epic battle. It will make a great parody in my fan fic :D
Andrea, I think you're about to get some back of what you gave to the community. My powers are limited, but you gave me Local Knight rights of the Power On RP board. It's not much, but maybe Raymond could make me LK of PO as well. It'll go unnoticed almost, and then I can help the other mods.
I'm so glad you decided to help out. Last night when you told me no...well, I thought that was the end.
Raymond is on your side, right? Maybe he can do this favor...
...Kodiack as a mod?

You and me both, Genius.
I only have a moderate amount of moderation experience, but the following makes sense to me:
EJ needs to realize something and I think he will be a whole lot better off. He needs to go back in his memory and look at what the old Nsider forums were, and what his forum are, compare and contrast the differences, and take note of what differences should be taken into account and be fixed/dealt with. The board needs a secure staff setting right now. On the old Nsider a KoH or admin being demoted or promoted was a very rare occasion. Without a secure staff setting on the board nothing else can take place, like organize and controlled forums and a community like I think everyone wants to see. :|

Ok wait. If he does help us, maybe he can make it so no one knows I'm the LK. Like just give the powers, no rank, no name under Power On. Then, when EJ thinks it's over, I can be a surprise attack. I'll save my powers until the time comes...
I have to say, truthfully, that I have a newfound respect for you, Andrea.

I hope not I like it here, its kinda nice with the people here
Here is a copy of a post from the staff board posted today from EJ:
QuoteNSider2 staff,
It's been a difficult decision for me to have to let go of Andrea and Ray, I know Andrea helped out a lot of you guys and at some degree some of you (Sk8terland) are very loyal to her, I understand this, but at the same time loyalty to a person should not interfere with your loyalty to the community.
I, like you work, for the community, to ensure its survival, spam free environment and its progressive transformation into a much larger, bigger place to call home.
I have talked to Andrea over the phone and thanked her for the hard work she did for the forums, but ultimately I will do what is best for the community as a whole, not what's best for one individual.
I'm re-organizing the admin position, the issue with this position is that most people take it as a position of power, not responsibility... I want to change this and give responsibility above all.
Admins will now have their own title and become "name of feature here Admin" for example, market admins will become that, Market Admins, Staff Admin, Battle System Admin etc.
This will secure that an individual member or team is responsible for specific functions around the forums, instead of how it's currently done in which one member managed several aspects of the forum, wearing them down FAST, this will relieve a lot of the tension admins like Andrea had to endure at times.
There were a few previous admins which I did not agree with letting go, Hyrulian_Royalty was a great admin, which Andrea wanted out because she felt she could take care of the Market feature better, I have since contacted Hyrulian_Royalty and asked him to return.
I know some of you have opted to not be active moderators anymore, that is your decision and I cannot change it, every person is free to make their own choice, all I can do is ask you to weather the storm and hold on tight, things will get better faster than they get worse.
A merger with NSF is in the works, the deal is to consolidate our resources with Snorkel and have Snorkel run day-to-day NSide2 routine, replacing me as head admin, which will free up time for me to continue working the expansion of the site.
I trust that Snorkel and myself will do our best to make sure the community stays strong, NSF doesn't have a lot of members, members is not the reason why I want us to merge with NSF, it's Snorkel who has a proven record of being a patient and calculative admin which I'm mainly interested in, a person to replace my role, one which I had hope previous admins could fill, but as mentioned before it was not possible due their various issues.
Thanks for your time.
Regards,
EJ
I so LOL'd at that first paragraph.

Admins will now have their own title and become "name of feature here Admin" for example, market admins will become that, Market Admins, Staff Admin, Battle System Admin etc.
This will secure that an individual member or team is responsible for specific functions around the forums, instead of how it's currently done in which one member managed several aspects of the forum, wearing them down FAST, this will relieve a lot of the tension admins like Andrea had to endure at times.
There were a few previous admins which I did not agree with letting go, Hyrulian_Royalty was a great admin, which Andrea wanted out because she felt she could take care of the Market feature better, I have since contacted Hyrulian_Royalty and asked him to return.
I know some of you have opted to not be active moderators anymore, that is your decision and I cannot change it, every person is free to make their own choice, all I can do is ask you to weather the storm and hold on tight, things will get better faster than they get worse.
A merger with NSF is in the works, the deal is to consolidate our resources with Snorkel and have Snorkel run day-to-day NSide2 routine, replacing me as head admin, which will free up time for me to continue working the expansion of the site.
I trust that Snorkel and myself will do our best to make sure the community stays strong, NSF doesn't have a lot of members, members is not the reason why I want us to merge with NSF, it's Snorkel who has a proven record of being a patient and calculative admin which I'm mainly interested in, a person to replace my role, one which I had hope previous admins could fill, but as mentioned before it was not possible due their various issues.
Thanks for your time.
Regards,
EJ

That's pretty low of him. He's just cutting out all the existing people in power and bringing in new ones to cover his tracks. =/
Does this mean no merge? >>
you must be out of your darn mind
you want a merge?

Here is a copy of a post from the staff board posted today from EJ:
QuoteNSider2 staff,
It's been a difficult decision for me to have to let go of Andrea and Ray, I know Andrea helped out a lot of you guys and at some degree some of you (Sk8terland) are very loyal to her, I understand this, but at the same time loyalty to a person should not interfere with your loyalty to the community.
I, like you work, for the community, to ensure its survival, spam free environment and its progressive transformation into a much larger, bigger place to call home.

Same here. To hire me for a specific job is suspicious
Oh, the controversy, the drama! I'll make a floated post about this.
