Posting this here because it doesn't belong in music~
I don't know what happened
I apologize for my absence as I got sick of gaia and being the only one who gave a s**t at the time about the state of the hip hop forum.
I've known damn well for the past year that the hip hop forum was the most neglected forum, hell you can ask the main music regulars, they see it too. And for the past year I tried. I kept in contact with Caz (who's been talking about demodding for a good period of time now) when I could to take care of trolls, but clearly something is wrong when there's only ONE moderator for one of the most active music forums on Gaia. Even the goddamn Country forum has more moderators. Ya'll don't know how happy I was when Caz told me he was going to get another helper for the forum, and I tried to help him find good candidates (Thunder Foot was the first choice, but he didn't have computer access at the time for whatever reason). Booboo was a great helper, and I needed a break. I've been helper since the very first wave of helpers were chosen in February of '05. And for a year and a half I've been dealing with everything from reply PMs talking about 'y u move my thred U b***h' to 'THE MODS DON'T CARE, WHY AREN'T YOU DOING YOUR JOB TINA', people not realizing that I AM NOT A MODERATOR. The best I could do is move threads, and leave troll threads like this
http://www.gaiaonline.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=19008523 for a moderator to handle, I'm not allowed to touch ToS violations. I needed a break, so I took one. I didn't leave with nothing there to help, Booboo did her job as a helper and clearly she did great. I'm just as angry as anyone else that she got dehelpered, but I won't touch on that.
I'm back and I'm going to have to work double time now that I'm by myself again. But honestly I can't do this s**t alone, especially now that Caz has given up.
