Title: It's been fun.
Post by: Tim on August 20, 2012, 22:59:41
I have to say, it sucks to be writing this.  I thought I'd never have to leave Consentus do to something as trivial as skype calls.

Everyone in the clan except a select few have been raging at me for pointless reasons, and getting demoted is the last straw.

Consentus was supposed to be a clan with harmony, harmony doesn't mean you can't have a skype call where it gets slightly inappropriate, and it also doesn't mean you can't be friends with the members that aren't staff like some seem to think.

Bird Table was right when he said the staff are a tight-knit group, and unfortunately I'm tired of it.  If I can't have friends without getting complained against, then why should I be there?  The staff I thought were supposed to be there to be helpful and friendly, but I guess it's only friendly to people who have no strikes against them and no complaints.

Don't become a clan where everyone whines about everything, because that's not what a clan should be.  A clan should be a place where we're like a family, not like enemies.

There are a few people I'd like to say some words to:

Lilly, you said I'm not mature enough to be a cc mod, but have you thought maybe it's not me? You seem to be annoyed at every little inappropriate thing I say, when others can get away with much worse stuff.

Dec, you thought you knew what happened with sythe, so when I told you what really did happen you tried to prove me wrong.  I still think you're a good person, but you need to have equal control of this clan with Lilly to be a true leader.

Cambrim, I love you man, let's keep in touch, and we'll keep our movie nights going with or without the consent of some people.

Scarr, same to you, but not man.

Liam, good luck with consentus, I've always liked you and please don't become an overbearing person in this clan.  You were one of the best in hopefull, and will be one of the best here if you stay the way you are.

Robb, I know we've had our disagreements, but overall you're a pretty cool guy, and good luck with Abbie, you two are great together.

Runar, I'm sorry for all the shit I've put you through, but you've put me through some tough times too, so I think we're even.

Mathi, you're just too damn happy all the time, but still, good luck managing the citadel, I'll miss you.

Now that that's over, let's hear what I want.

I still want to be a member on the forums, and I still want guest access to the chat.  I don't feel there's been a reason to ban me, because I've done nothing wrong.  If you do ban me it's not because I've done something wrong, it's because you're scared I will.

Final statements, don't let this become a George Orwell book, think for yourself, and don't think "hey, everything has to be perfect here" because it can't and it won't be.

It's been fun while it lasted,

Tim

You shouldn't leave because of a demotion, kinda a sign you only cared about your position in the clan, no need to have it like that.

Yep sorry for putting you through things, but for god's sake, stop calling me a hamster and I'll stop calling you anything mexicanish

Im sorry you arent happy anymore, Stay happy and enjoy the game =). Runescape is meant for fun, and clans are meant to keep you company and with family. Hope it all works out and you find that clan for you out there if you search for another.

Its a shame about some individuals, i too feel the clan isnt friendly all the time

Have fun scaping!!! I hope you reach all of your goals :)

I'm not leaving because I got demoted, I'm leaving because I got demoted for the most idiotic reason there could be.  I was demoted for hosting a movie night where I warned for the sake of those who cared that it could be slightly inappropriate.  If that's a reason to be demoted then I must be crazy.

I doubt they would demote for only that.

Regardless of what the demotion reason was, hold your head high.

The Staff of Consentus are implementing a probation period of 30 days for those whom decide to formally leave the clan. Examples of this consist of leaving threads.

When a leaving thread has been created, thus the person giving up their rank, it is from this date that the 30 day period will begin.

For example:
Mister A leaves on 4th April 2012. Mister A will not be able to re-join Consentus as a full clan member until the 3rd May 2012.


If anyone has any questions or needs clarification on this, please do not hesitate to contact any staff member.

As you are fully aware of the way this works Tim, you will have a couple of days to make a decision. Since you've posted a "leaving thread" as such we will see if you have fully left after this period. You need to decide and contact me with your decision once you've made it.

I want to clarify the gossip on this thread that an event is not the only reason behind all of this, and I am appalled by the drama that has been portrayed because of it. This decision was made by Owners and should be kept in conversation between them and Tim himself. Not for open discussion.

It is a shame to see you go Tim. Would have been better to see this decision low key. Take care.

As per usual drama, over a small fact of the staff deciding to demote another member of staff.  Its never easy to lose staff members, but we need to always make sure we have a close knit staff that keep this clan running as smoothly as we do.

Do most of yo appreciate the amount of work, every staff member puts into making this clan a pleasant place to me.  I am not saying we are perfect, wouldnt life be boring if we were.  We are all individuals with our own quirks and habits thats why makes us human.

Reading this has only reinforced the decision to demote Tim from CC mod, for one reason that he is too immature to handle the pressure.  Normally I would never tell reasons for for demotion, but I am feel as Tim has already shared some details with everyone he really wont mind.

I refuse to address every point in your thread, as I know they were written when you were angry.


Let me make it clear, Dec is equal owner of this clan and we make a great team, to suggest that he isnt, is a pointless comment.


I have had complaints of your language, I didnt rage I shared the whole staffs concerns with you, again, showed that you werent ready to handle comments made towards you. 


You seem to tell us what you want at at the end of your thread, and say you want to continue being part of this clan, do you really?  What a funny way of showing it.  And why would we scared if we banned you? 


Maybe Cam, would like to share the parts he doesnt agree with Tim on?


I would like to share that Tim was demoted for a number of reasons, and yes Skype calls were a part, but not the only part.  As a member of staff I do not expect any call where other clan members are involved to be inappropriate, especially when these members are under 15 years of age. 



They were other deciding factors that lead to a decision being made, and a sythe account was involved yes. 


Ypu have requested to stay part of the forums and able to use the cc, so why may I ask a"leaving thread"  a lot of this has been said in haste.

May I suggest you rapidly drop the subject or leaving, and become a regular member of the clan, where you were fantastic.

Thanks for all your support Tim.

I wanted to quit Runescape, but remain a part of the clan on the forums, and for the odd occasion that I might have popped into the clan chat, but I had the 30 day period where I had limited access to the forums and the clan chat. To me, after a year an a half of being in the clan, felt like I was just forgotten about. I couldn't even see the shoutbox to speak to every and ask how there day had been.. All I wanted to do was stop playing Runescape, but continue with the clan.

I think the Waiting period needs some re-thinking. Maybe not allowed to have a rank in the chat, but you have to let them continue to use the forums, except for the extreme cases where they blow up and start getting agressive with the clan. (D@RunarV102012837)

Just my two cents, I don't know what's gone on between everyone since I don't play, but I can agree with Tim on this bit.

I felt completely shut off from everything, and I had to even make a re-application thread when you all know fine well I met the requirements, since I was a member previous to being a 'former member'.

Tim, it's sad to see you go. Can't say we've talked a lot, but its always bad to see a clan lose a member. I hope you find whatever it is you're looking for.

Post by: Only Lilly on August 21, 2012, 00:28:34
The reason we introduced the leaving rule, was to stop exactly what you have just done.  Jump on a thread, and comment to criticise things.

Everyone is welcome to stay on the forums, we have no issues with that.

If that what you plan to do, then why make a "leaving" thread?  Just leave the chat, its not hard. 


It has never been compulsory to be ranked in our cc to be on the forums, however you say you are leaving, then visit and post only to criticise the clan this is why Former rank was devised.

why?  You have left the CC for weeks and never made a leaving thread?  So explain why you agree.  This has no bearing on your situation
Title: Re: It's been fun.
Post by: Tim on August 21, 2012, 00:36:12
Lilly, I gave the exact reason you gave me.

A scythe account was created by my old friend who was using my accounts to rwt on sythe, which I didn't have knowledge of until he pointed out an account on the f2p highscores was selling an account, which I brought to the attention of Dec and Zach.

I am not too immature to handle the pressure, I've chosen to leave because of everything I've done, WARNING PEOPLE OF IMMATURE THINGS SO NO ONE WOULD BE OFFENDED IF THEY CAME is the reason I'm demoted.

What have I done for the clan well let's see, I've tried to recruit people, I've stopped conversations before they happened, I've done my best I can.  When people come into the clan late at night and want to be invited, I'm the first to offer.  Others are like "well if you can come to me." when the only person I've ever said that to was Aydan, and that was because we've been friends since December.

I was demoted, and then when I gave a reasonable argument to you, Lilly, and you ignored me. You flat out ignored my argument, and made ME reinforce my decision to leave.  I've been talking to some people about leaving for quite a bit, because of  the problems that have happened since I got cc mod.  Was my time enjoyable? Some of it, but definitely not all of it.

Lilly, you say you and Dec are equal, but Dec hasn't made any big decisions from what I've seen, it's always you, and never him.  It's impossible to disagree with you not because you are right, but because if someone does they get ignored or banned.

If you ban me you are clearly scared, because I've done nothing wrong, so what other reason is there?

Complaints of my language? Well then everyone should be demoted or kicked, because I haven't seen one person who says less bad language besides maybe Mathi and Mike.

I don't want to be a member of the clan chat, but I do on the forums.  I made a thread to say my opinions, so people know my side of the story.  I've seen a lot of times where the second side of the story is never told.  I'm not going to play the victim, but I'm definitely not going to say I was wrong, because I wasn't the sole person that was wrong.  Was I wrong to warn people of what they'd be getting into with movie nights? Was I wrong for trying to start an event where we could have fun as a clan? No, I wasn't.

Having a tight-knit group of staff is good when they're nice to other people in the clan, but the problem is most of the staff aren't.  The newer members of the clan are being left out, and it's not fair to them.  This has become a very cliquey clan, where the staff are always ignoring the little people.  I got in trouble multiple times for trying to include myself in both cliques, and that's where I was wrong.  If you didn't want me to be friends with the members, you should have told me, instead of demoting as soon as I tried to include myself with others.

The story is over, I've left the cc but I want to be on the forums.  I said I'll guest in the cc sometimes, but not always.  This is going to go back to how I was when I was in hopefull if all goes according to plan.

If you want to say bye, say bye, if you want to argue, pm me.

I stated in my leaving thread I had only quit Runescape just incase people where wondering where I had got to, not the clan. I had intentions of being on the forums. That's just me, personally. I don't know, no one appreciates suggestions when it's within an debate like this, so I'll wait for it to cool down before I bring it up again.

Thanks for the kind words Tim. <3

I guess "Bye" but I'll still see you around so all good.

However I gotta say it's not nice to see the way this thread has turned into I've not read all of the comments maybe parts of some cause I'm tired and well just lazy, so sorry if I am contradicting what others have said. From some of the comments I have read this thread may aswell have been called "Lets argue" and not a leaving thread, some of you may have agreed with what Tim stated but I don't understand why you need to comment saying you agree and then give your opinion just keep to yourself save starting up an arguement, now I may be even contradicting myself there but I just wanted to get this thread back onto a "Leaving thread" and not just some place to cause an unwanted arguement. If you disagree with me please feel free to pm me always up for a chat well when I'm not tired. ;) (If this ramble doesn't make sense I'm tired so ignore it. :L)


Once again Adios Timothy Goodluck on your current skiller please stay with it.

Aaron I got 1200 total on my skiller. The Runar v*number* era is done. Someone else took the spot.


Tim no offence. I agree with what Lilly said. You wanted to leave with a blast and made this thread in anger. But you missed a lot of the reasons why you got demoted and seem to focus it around your idea of the skype movie nights. But Lilly doesn't make all decisions in clan. She discuss with Dec and I guess he prefer to be behind the scenes cus it's not needed with both leaders up front. Saying Dec don't do much proves you did not pay attention to the details. Didn't you get promoted when Dec was the gold key leader during Lilly's break? You should've typed this out with more thoughts and not anger to avoid drama and arguments. Take it from someone that's been in that angry zone. Hope you have fun in Hopefull and continue to visit the  clan. Avoid arguments from now on. Do what I fail to do over and over again. Respect.

Sorry for any typos. Just my two cents not trying to add sparks to this now neatly burnt-out argument fire. Typed all this on my phone while in bed.

"Swearing is a really important part of one's life. It would be impossible to imagine going through life without swearing and without enjoying swearing... There used to be mad, silly, prissy people who used to say swearing was a sign of a poor vocabulary -such utter nonsense. The people I know who swear the most tend to have the widest vocabularies and the kind of person who says swearing is a sign of a poor vocabulary usually have a pretty poor vocabulary themselves... The sort of twee person who thinks swearing is in any way a sign of a lack of education or a lack of verbal interest or -is just a fucking lunatic... I haven't met anybody who's truly shocked at swearing, really, they're only shocked on behalf of other people. Well, you know, that's preposterous... or they say 'it's not necessary'. As if that should stop one doing it! It's not necessary to have coloured socks, it's not necessary for this cushion to be here, but is anyone going to write in and say 'I was shocked to see that cushion there, it really wasn't necessary'? No, things not being necessary is what makes life interesting -the little extras in life." - Stephen Fry on the joys of swearing. Stephen Fry: Guilty, BBC4, September 8th 2007



That is quite funny :P i thought it was from your own words then.

I take that as a compliment you would think I'm intelligent enough to come up with that :D

You're very welcome. I should learn that and blurt it out to mardy people ;)

Tommy, there are members who are on forums and not the clan, I would like to be one of those.  2 examples are Ardo and Ashy.

why do i get dragged into everything?:P

the only reason i aint in the cc is coz im already part of another.
and i have never "left" any part of cts either.
i have never posted a leaving thread.

while i can understand some amounts of frustration, making a rant within a leaving post is possibly not the correct way to go about it.
especially targeted ones naming specific names and specific aspects.

 I made a thread to say my opinions, so people know my side of the story - agreed with bates, some things could have been done in pm. there is such a phrase as airing dirty laundry, and doing in pm not public is more maturely done, tho if a person does not wish to do it in pm as they feel others "have a right to know" whats happened to them, one shud undertake it more tactfully.

i wish u the best of luck in ur rs career and to take care

(btw @ bird table, the first time i swore irl around  my mum i got bitch slapped, and it continues as she is very victorian and prim and proper:P and she is shocked at swearing...even tho my dad can swear like a sailor!!) but neverthe less, a very good quote from stephen fry ^^

I still don't really know whats the ins and outs of the argument despite reading the whole thread. As I have done throughout I'll support Lilly's decision, she's never steered me wrong yet. The thing I have picked up is that there have been things mentioned that shouldn't have been, as said before, things like this should be kept to PM. I agree with Liam's point to, this should be renamed 'let's argue'. You say you're mature enough to handle a rank yet you react like this without it? I'm not having a dig I'm just saying.. You're not really proving your point.

Anyway, Take care Tim. Hopefully you'll still remain active on forums like you've said and maybe one day this will blow over.

I'm not sure if I should even bother with a post here, but I feel I should, if nothing else so I can't regret it later, I also have a feeling this thread will be locked soon.
-Rightly so as well, judging from some of the earlier posts of the thread.

To Tim,

Consentus was supposed to be a clan with harmony, harmony doesn't mean you can't have a skype call where it gets slightly inappropriate, and it also doesn't mean you can't be friends with the members that aren't staff like some seem to think.

"friends with the members that aren't ...."
Without knowing the story at all, which I believe gives me an unbiased opinion on this whole topic. At no point has anyone been stopped from being friends with non-staff in my experience, so I am certain that you are mistaken, there is no logical reason for this to happen - So I will assume this is a misunderstanding.

By "Slightly Inappropriate" this is so widely arguable it's difficult to talk about it, so I won't. 8)


Quote
The staff I thought were supposed to be there to be helpful and friendly, but I guess it's only friendly to people who have no strikes against them and no complaints.

If you thought this was a problem, why didn't YOU do something about it? Why didn't YOU involve and include people with "strikes and complaints".   


Quote
Lilly, you said I'm not mature enough to be a cc mod, but have you thought maybe it's not me? You seem to be annoyed at every little inappropriate thing I say, when others can get away with much worse stuff.

I don't think you're mature enough either, personally, and I think it is you. I've heard you question why I am a CC Mod. I know this was most likely a joke but it doesn't really matter.  (I don't know why either if I'm honest.) [please don't deny this.]

You do seem to constantly send immature and sometimes stupid messages either in-game or not. But it's that relevant to this discussion and thread, I don't think.

An example

Quote
Cambrim, I love you man, let's keep in touch, and we'll keep our movie nights going with or without the consent of some people.

It's like you're deliberately TRYING to cause arguments by spiting others. It's just bad in general, why do it?

And then your demands, you've just made a post criticising Lilly and others, then expect to be given perks, the rest of that paragraph is almost like a threat, you should NOT be surprised at some of the things posted later in this thread.



Quote
I'm not leaving because I got demoted, I'm leaving because I got demoted for the most idiotic reason there could be.  I was demoted for hosting a movie night where I warned for the sake of those who cared that it could be slightly inappropriate.  If that's a reason to be demoted then I must be crazy.

Here you go again, finding reasons why it couldn't be at all your fault. I'm also not saying it is your fault. But you shouldn't push away any blame at all like this.


Your "demands" As I called them, whilst not unreasonable, it's a pretty simple rule that was added recently that answers this before you even needed to make this thread or anything else. Through wishing to retaliate back for being demoted you've made everything harder for yourself.

Quote
What have I done for the clan well let's see, I've tried to recruit people, I've stopped conversations before they happened, I've done my best I can.

I've seen you start arguments. You constantly swear, and whilst later on that incredible, vivid descriptive Stephen Fry quote was put into this thread, I'm ignoring it, as I don't find it THAT relevant to my post.

And for Para's post, why respond to it in that way Andrew?
-Leaving thread so he said Bye, doesn't matter AT ALL that it was his first post.

However, ignoring everything that I have said previously, Tim, have fun with whatever you do now. Whether you get what you asked for or not. Whether you ever come back to Consentus or not.

I'm going to stop finding things to talk about now, before I end up writing a novel.
