Wow were to start, i guess i need to explain why im here.I think i need to defend my self in some small way.It seems i was considered a rogue admin at SGS and i can assure you i resigned because i had no more time (due to work) to actually achive the type of "admin" work i allways loved so much.For me the admin rights i had at SGS we used to set up online events and comps like BFA (dod) Mapmadness (cs) and to create relationships between suppliers (intel,take2,ect) and SGS.The nitty gritty of being and admin was something i was usless at and usally joined and played games without my admin files installed for said games.Gamezone was full of soilt brats that had not a kind word to say,were very abusive and full of "**** on you mate" attitudes.
I used to log onto the forums and see gamers upset about conection speeds or game updates and i would get a kick out of helping them...that was the reward i got out of the many years i put into promoting SGS.I used to spam mweb gamzone forums with info relating to new servers and games hosted at SGS.I liked the "vibe" on the SGS server when i joined and back then it was two cs servers,with emaphsis on how you play and how much fun you have,not how crappy the other gamers are and how much you "own" them.Well over the years SGS has grown huge..its a bohemoth and its only the size it is due to support from all the likeminded gamers around S.A.
I would also like to mention that alot of the "no telkom" posting rules were around long before adsl.What i have come to learn over the years is that alot the public users at SGS have very distorted idea of how its run.Granted server space and connectivity is free but thats were it ends.All the servers you see and all the games you play on are sponsored by the games suppliers or admins themselves.There is no telkom/saix/telkom-internet budget for SGS and the day one of the three" try to take it over" it will close down.Its about as close to community run as you can get.
I know for a fact that Elyzium has been called into a boardroom to explain how much money he is personally making out of the venture and i can assure you its not a cent,maybe a few copies of a new game and thats about it.
With regards to freedom of speech and the way some of you gamers behave it would be great to have forum a section were you can moan and gripe all you like,infact there was one but alas u ****ed it up and now its closed down. Anyways the "e-thug" allways wins and most of you cannot be trusted to behave in an adult manner.The admin attitudes at SGS have evolved over the years, constant abuse,irc spamming , abusive emails and whatnot have pushed them to the limit.Its turned out to be alot like the zero tolerance campign in New York ( a huge success for NY i might add).You pushed them to the point were they just delete stuff that is not seen as content,worthy of space on the forums.It wasnt allways that way.
Look i know gamers and i know u lot of you ZA gamers more than you would like to believe.Most of you come from middle to upper middle income familys,you dont pay any bills,a maid makes your bed and garden staff mow the lawn,you goto some of the best schools in the country and you behave like the spoilt white brats that you are.If you are an adult working and playing games you probably come for said background.The only place you actually come across any type of authority is at SGS and when you get a slap on the hand its all about human rights and attempst at using the great constitution this country has to "get" your way.Laroosta is good example of this as i know for a fact that you were around and aware of the rules at SGS long before you got banned.You decided to stick ur pinky toe in the icy water and wow,a shark jumped up and took you leg off,never mind the big red sign that say "BEWARE!! HUNGRY SHARKS".
Its oh so easy to come here and moan and groan about somthing you have no true undstanding about (SGS how it works,who runs it and how fast it can be closed down) but at the end of the day you need to rise to the challenge that one of the other users here posted. What are your solutions and how do you plan to impliment them.
Just need end of with a kind reminder that even the best game hosting sites in the world have the same attitude and systems that SGS have.....goto jolt read the rules compare them to SGS and then reply to the thread.
