Okay. So that number means absolutely nothing to me. 3 out of how many? You can't expect me to know if that's a good thing or if you're mocking me. Don't get me wrong, I'm not angry. Just wanna know what you're trying to say here.

Wow, slightly more than 15-20 minutes?!?!? I'm thoroughly impressed.

Re: Mods winning review prizes?

Well.. eight users (either mod or admin/support) were given access to the forums, and seven of them posted their nominations. So 3 out of the 7 publicly voted for you in the private forum. Which really is rather good, considering the other 56 options they had to choose from. In fact, being one of those 56 out of the several hundred reviews posted is a pretty good thing.
My ears are open for those that seek help or a good conversation.
I reside in server 2! My inbox is open there in-game and here on the forums, don't be shy!

I suppose you're right. Thanks for actually answering. Answers to touchy subjects are hard to come by with some other users. Just as an aside: 7 is a good number for "yes or no" or "guilty or innocent" votes, even though 9 is commonly used, as in juries. However, for events with hundreds of choices, a MUCH larger committee is needed for accurate results. Look at science. You don't see people accepting theories tested 7 times accepted as laws. You get hundreds of scientists testing the same thing hundreds of times. If their findings agree, then talks begin over acceptance as a scientific law. I think the same applies here.

Re: Mods winning review prizes?

Sorry, apparently I'm just a natural.
By the way, I edited mine a few times too.

Oh and another thing Demi, I voted for you, starting to wish I hadn't since you can't be a good sport about it and say good job and congrats and leave it.

You see, we mods who are so biased had nothing to do with the final results. Hell, I didn't even care if I won or not, I did it for fun and because people asked me to.

It's funny really, you don't know even a fraction of what I've done for the people here. You don't know even a fraction of what some of my mods have done for you. Can you guess why? It's because we don't give a damn about the recognition or the praise, we do it because we care about the community and just like helping.

Show some respect why don't you and be a little more mature about this.

And another thing, why don't you ask EthSwDow about the 30 page tutorial that she spent 15 hours of her time on and asked for nothing in return for. Do you see her getting anything?

Think a little next time.

Vayne, and everyone else that contributes to Haypi: Sorry you feel that way (Vayne specifically). I'll be leaving the forum following this and one more post. However, there are a few things I would very much like you to know:

-I truly appreciate, have always appreciated, and will always appreciate what experts, mods, etc do for the players of haypi. I know it's seemed the opposite for the past day or so, but it's not the case. I've heard you say you try your best to reply to your 100+ daily PMs. That's honorable, and I respect you for putting in so much of your time.

-I've heard the stories of experts receiving death threats through the ingame mail. It's terrible, and I have the utmost respect for their ability to keep going and their desire to make the game a better place for all.

-I hope it hasn't seemed too much like I'm a sore loser. In my view, I feel like I've only just shown my affinity for debate. Possibly debate more heated than the kind that Darkon likes to take on. Know that at no time did I intended to ostracize myself in the forum; but alas, that's the end result.

-I haven't had the pleasure of reading Eth's tutorial. I don't know if that's because it was posted before I became active on the forums or if it just hasn't been posted yet, but I'm sure it's good. 15 hours is certainly a large chunk of time.

-Vayne. I did congratulate you on taking home the iPad. Note the lack of an edit to cover my ass. http://haypi.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=0&t=2000&p=21747#p21747

-The use word "ass" in that last statement is the first time I have used an expletive on the forum.

-Just because I'm saying goodbye to the forum doesn't mean I'm quitting the game entirely. Most of you know me. You'll still find me on servers one and six from time to time.

That ends my eulogy. See you all.

Re: Mods winning review prizes?

There's no reason to leave. I'm just sick and tired of the constant disrespect from people around here.

So you see I'm not just talking I'm going to prove a point here:
