View Full Version : Petition to bring back Alysha & Denny

I think that Dan (NEWS!) should let them come back. They have done an awesome job of modding this board. I really don't see anyone else on the boards who can be as good of a mod as Denny or Alysha have been. So, what do you guys think?

RCPersonally, I think they'll be allowed back when all the dust settles.
But a petition = more dust.

I was still king of holding out hope this was just a bad joke allowed to run way too long.
If it's not that, then I tend to think bringing Denny and Alysha back is the best thing. There are no real suitable replacements as mods for one thing. None. Denny and Alysha were always reasonable, even in the face of people being unbelievable assholes.

I think most of the board supports Denny and Alysha, but since no one knows what they did or said (specifically), we should hold off on any petitions and whatnot until we get all the facts in.
Just my thoughts...

I don't think Dan would find this in bad taste. If he does, I guess he'll delete the thread or ban or whatever. In any case, I don't think its wrong, posting a thread in support.

Granted I'm all for supporting your fellow posters, but as others have said, no one but Bendis and Dan know the whole story, and it may be more awful than you think. It's best not to get involved in situations like this, especially with a petition, which I think is rather insulting. This is afterall Bendis' forum and Dan's server.

well, Dan did ask us for suggestions for new mods.
The one way to settle all of this - make clear it's not a joke, etc - is to open up these mod boards and show us what was said.

this gimmick justs get faker by the second
As much as I'd love to have Denny and Alysha back as mods, ultimately this is Dan's board - he's the one who started it, he's the one paying the bills. So it's his choice to let them back or not. I don't know how much he's posted about the situation, so I don't know how dead set he is about keeping them banned.
But if it means anything, I'd like for them to come back. Although they didn't agree on everything, they did a pretty good job in their own ways.

Yeah, bring them back. I have no problem with that. But, that's not my decision, that's Dan's. Obviously, it was strong enough that they had to be banned.
And who mods the mods? A super moderator. Or a head moderator. And then, Dan governs them.
And I'm all for mods not being made publically known. I've been part of a message board that's done that, and it works out better.

well, i think they both must've messed up big time.
but, however it ended i know it started, cuz i watched it, with them both debating what is best for the rules around here. so they definitley are the best ppl if you are looing for ppl who give a crud.
and until basic ground rules are laid out again like they were at the old board, were gonna keep going around in circles about all of this.
Denny and AMcK don't need to be banned for life, we need to set boundaries in stone before that happens.

Ask yourself...
• Why would anyone solicit mods ONLY via public thread, with explicit instructions not to PM or e-mail?
• Would NEWS! really override Bendis? Possible, but unlikely. Think of the awkwardness that will create.
• Have Alysha and Denny EVER aired their dirty laundry out in public like this before? No. They're both very discrete, which is one of the things that makes them both good moderators.
• If all of this was really happening, do you think we would all know so much about it?

Okay, you hadn't articulated your point, so I was assuming. Apologies there.
I agree with you. But "banning" means very little. Ask Goddard or Bloodyhell about that. On this new board, it's a smack on the nose with a newspaper instead of banishment to the Phantom Zone. (Although picturing Alysha and Denny in that spinning space mirror is a pretty funny mental image.)
If this is all a joke (which I think it is, but I'm naturally skeptical), the point would be to watch everyone flailing around in dramatic hysterics. Which they're doing.

Exactly. If this did happen like we've been told, I'm 100% in support of removing the duty of Moderators from Denny and Alysha. Mods should never openly argue with one another in public on a board. I do think that Denny and Alysha should still be welcome as members of the community since they put in so much time and effort as volunteers.
On the other hand, if this is a joke it's gone on far too long to be funny. It's causing a lot of confusion and stress on the board members. People are saying things, positive and negative, about the people involved. How is that productive? If people say something that offends any of these people and it's a joke, I have to think there will inevitably be hard feelings. Has it become just another "I adore <insert mod name>" ego booster? And is it a big in joke with other 'special' people on the board?
We don't need the chaos. In my opinion, it's just as detrimental to the community as another F/M/K thread. Sure, it's no Con molestation thread but trust me, if it's a joke Graeme at FBR will still take plenty of quotes out of context and fuck us all. We're already probably the most maligned comic community on the net, like it or not.
Either way, we need someone who matters to set this straight today, April 2nd, with no April Fools crap.

It's the same crap we always go through here. A little bit of genuine drama followed by endless speculation and nonsense.
It is pathetic. I just find that amusing instead of unsettling.
And which board would you like back? The one from last night that was 8000 "Pope" and "___ is Dead" parody threads? The one from last week that was all about leaving the board forever? The one from a few weeks ago that was nothing but "I made it here from the other board, welcome me!"?
It's always been this way. We're all a bunch of dysfunctional retards. (And I include myself in that generalization.)

Really? What were you in for?
first of all.. i was totally innocent. that shit was a setup. no kidding.
i made fun of Jor-El at a city meeting one day. i couldn't help it. he was always mumbling and over-emoting about the end of the world. it just cracked me up. some of the other committe members were laughing with me... too bad those sorry bastards didn't stick up for me.
next thing i knew i was flipping through three dimensional space in a two dimensional way.
beyond all odds i crashed into a space station and was freed. on that station,a swell gent named roger (though he appeared to be a shitty janitor) lent me a towel and i thumbed it to earth.
to this day, i hate that bastard, Jor-El.
:mad:
even made a little voodoo doll:

Jor-El's a bastard, and his no-good son is even worse.
I hated the Krypton social world.

I think that banning them was extreme. People have arguements all the time. I think worst case they should just be regular members.
Being a Mod isn't a job, it's a privelege given to a few based on trust. If you don't trust them anymore, or they abuse your trust, they shouldn't be mods.
But, as mentioned, this is NEWS! board. He might want to be the only moderator for some reason. Not my call

It's the same crap we always go through here. A little bit of genuine drama followed by endless speculation and nonsense.
It is pathetic. I just find that amusing instead of unsettling.

I was on the Image board, I know what the board is usually like. It's usually balances precariously between fun and "Oh my God, why do I come here?". The last few days have been unrelenting, merciless HELL!
I expected April 1st to be purgatory, not hell. I just want my good old Bendis board back, full of every day drama and bad parody threads. And I adore the Girl.

I don't think we have to worry about FBR harping on it right now. Their front page is almost all but taken up with an argument between a couple of douches over an April Fool's joke on another board.

Bendis? I didn't see his name, but I didn't really read it either. I just scanned the first paragraph and saw it involved Rich Johnston was involved.

But let's not give it to JonnyZ, so he feels like he has to read every thread on the board to keep up.

JasonIt's in the middle. Millar brings up Rich trashing Alisa, and Millar gets an email response from Bendis.
