Frankly, to this day I'm still baffled about what happened. HK didn't have much in the way of a warning history, and then all the sudden completely flipped the fuck out for no reason any of the mods could see, and began posting all sorts of flames and general nastiness (and if I recall right, obscene/shock images.) Part of it was in the guide of some sort of "NSG Liberation Front" wanting Max to get rid of "the three shittiest mods," though who those were supposed to be was never clarified. Basically it was a suicide-by-mod right about the time we were getting this forum ready to go.

For awhile after that, HK kept trying to evade IP ban here to carry on his bizarre campaign, and tried encourage people to not post on these forums, but to stick to the old Jolt forums, which had already deteriorated into a virtually lawless wasteland since Jolt stripped us of our powers over there pretty quickly and wouldn't do a damn thing about the problems over there themselves. Eventually Jolt made the old NS forums read-only, and that seemed to take the wind out of the campaign.

Phahah! I can't even read the old Jolt forums, apparently my iPad or omputer doesn't like them.

Also, that sounds kinda like Kari...no?

HK and Karin are on completely different continents, and have markedly different styles of doing things. Believe me, the notion came up awhile ago and was debunked in the sekrit clubhouse. :lol2:

So that's what happened? Hm.

I wasn't sure. In fact, I don't even remember. I do know that after a fashion, you guys DOSed HK.

The Stephistan story reminds me of a forum I used to moderate... the admin got pissed at a couple of other moderators for not being online 24/7, banned about 50 members, ragequit, came back, banned the two moderators and demoted himself.

He used to be a mod. And was asked to resign, for that I've been told, for abusing his powers.
