A long time?

Maybe I'm not the type built for blogging.

I only type when I feel like typing. If there are some things I don't want people to know, I let it perish into oblivion, and I don't care for... history.

That's because I haven't been able to update my blog. The histories, the design, even the links I promised so many people with. I feel rather ashamed about it, but that will change tonight. I hope.

On to business.

1. "HUMAN TRASH"

I find it rather amusing that people I did not aim with words reacted violently to the calling of "human trash."

Let me ask you this. Why do you care if you hear this word?

Is it because you're trying to uphold the good? Or because you yourself are hurt with those words?

A person in the ragnaboards said that by calling someone a "human trash"... you threaten their right to live.

Or does it?

In the internet, such word is so easy to type and to tell. Why make serious business out of something?

Anyhow, in Waukeen's blog, in this post, a few people still hold grudge when I said those words. I wonder why?

It all started when certain banned users forced their way back, insisting that they were banned based on contributed information from a certain chatroom, which they claim, was within their whim of privacy. Who says you can't use that as evidence to make your ruling? I have verified that evidence to be credible. Even my closest friend confirmed it.

Those who were the recipient of those angsty and bitter words are proven misfits. Botters, flamers, you name it. Human patience has its limits, and this is not the first time that I have verbally lashed at them severely. I certainly know when to and when NOT to, but I'm sure people sympathetic of me knows how it feels.

Indeed, sinners hide under human rights like a naughty child hiding under the skirt of his or her mother. Sometimes, do you even wonder if I am a human being to think like this?

Do not give someone a reason to call you names. Especially those in the pedestal. Because as much as I am on your side, I can easily go against someone whenever they do something contrary to the rules.

2. THE WATCHERS; MIDGARD POLICE

Just recently, I posted a screen capture of the Midgard Police in action, in their behalf.

It was met with cheers and jeers. Cheers because MPs are indeed doing something. Jeers... well, you don't see bots being banned yet.

In Thor, that is.

While I understand and would react the same way, do know this. The effects of the dupe wipe... overwhelmed customer support and the GMs. Even Waukeen himself said it.

3. REPUTATION

For someone in authority, I am not the type who cares what people see me as. Some see me as a menace. Some as cool. Some as windy or blowhard. Some even evil.

It reminds me of the time when Battlechaser stood up for me and called me the Machiavellian Moderator. By that, he meant that if I need to be evil to bring order and peace back, I will be so, not "that any evil action can be justified if it is done for a good purpose." In short, I do not do evil for the sake of it. Even the Hakkeshu as a collective aren't that conceited.

I have received so many threats and hates because of what I do. But it simply doesn't matter. I'm not doing it to hear hatred towards me. I want to see peace and order in the boards. And if given the chance, in the game too.

4. RAGNABOARDS

I and other moderators are planning some changes in the boards.

a. Upgrading of forums to invision powerboard 3.0 -- part of the solution to eliminate the pest we call spambots. Yes, I am just irritated by it as everyone else is.
b. Skin. I won't spoil about it, but it'll be among the changes.
c. New moderators. Some moderators will be coming back. Others will be a new generation.

5. THE BLOG

I'm toying with some design right now, it's the only free time I have (as of this writing).
