As many of our readers know, I have in the past been very critical of how one of the Howard Stern message boards, sternchat.com, was being run. I showed my support for the site recently however when a team of mods emerged that, in my opinion, was one of the best mod teams in the history of Stern boards. It looks like all that has changed. Three of those moderators have stepped down from their positions, and the fourth,
Rocky Balboner, started his own message board. Will sternchat be able to recover? Time will tell.
Looking for a new home?
Come to the
light Flasher and the others, come to the Shrine. We would love to have you join us.
Flasher:LOL...no im not back but since i was an admin the members should hear it from me..I will not be back to post ever..I wont be on any msg board for that matter
(yeah i know waaaaaa and gay)..
If you guys only knew of 5% of the things we stopped jeff from doing you would shake your heads...lol you should hear who he thought would be good mods..im sure you will see soon enough..hahahahahahaha
The best advice i gave jeff was to stay in the office and let the mods deal with the front end
i keep telling people its like this
the mods were like the crew on a ship thats got holes and sinking..we were bailing the water trying to save it...everytime we made progress the capt would come out and say "ohhh let me help.." and poke more holes in the ship..
jeff...i could say sooooooooooooo much more of the lame and idiotic and sneaky shit youve done like reading PMs...im very tempted to spill it all but i will just touch on it a bit..............for now
if you lie about me or post with my name the members will know the truth
oh and when you said i asked for a salary i was quitting and you asked what it would take for me to stay so i said
"yeah give me 2000 bucks and 400 a month" knowing FULL WELL you would say no...thats called a hollow offer
then you offered me the subscription money so i sure hope you werent telling people i demanded that as well
you told people about this that was said in the staff forum and then said you were sorry...then you did it again...there is zero hope for you jeff
to the next mods....LOL...you will fully appreciate all i went through with this guy when you have to deal with him....good luck to you too
Cthulhu:Check the FACTS before believing what some bitter baby spews out their ass
Well it’s been a blast helping out around here, but, I’m stepping down as mod.
I’d like to take this opportunity to say “thank you” to Flasher, Britney, STDS, and Rocky.
As you have all noticed lately, the crazy shit that’s been going down has finally hit the proverbial fan. There are so many reasons for this choice. Basically it all boils down to bad decision making. Between things not getting fixed that have needed to be fixed for quite some time, to not having any initiative for making it better around here, and so many other bad directions that needed to be derailed. It just doesn’t make sense anymore. I’m still gonna stick around as a poster, but that’s about it.
There are reasons that all of the others have stepped down or left entirely. There are things that you fortunately are not privy to. If you could see the stuff going on in the background, you’d see the reasons for everyone else leaving also.
Good luck to the new mods, you’re gonna need it.
Cthulhu
Britney Spears:My sincere thanks to all the posters here that have made this bb a fun place to hang out....& to the one's that haven't...well never mind I'm stepping down for my own reasons as well. Best of luck with the bb Jeff.
Super Turbo Death Shark:I am also bowing out at this time. I have been here since the beginning, and I helped Hass when he was setting this place up. I've seen people come and go, and I've seen this place change a lot in the last year and a half. I left originally because of differences I had with the owner here, and I came back out of respect for this place and out of respect for Flasher. People can dislike Flasher all they want, but nobody would ever question his integrity or his intentions here if they knew how much he tried to do for this place. That period of time a month or two ago when things seemed to be happening for this place, that was Flasher's doing. If only you all knew how much he did behind the scenes, I think even his biggest haters would have a newfound respect for him.
But to see so much of what we all worked for shit on in the last few weeks has been a disgrace to everything Hass and this board itself stood for. The people in this thread all worked very, very hard for this place, and I give them all the credit in the world for dealing with these issues for so long. I have never been part of a better staff, nor have I seen it thrown to the wind by a person who has no idea yet what he had, what he lost, or who had so little gratitude for the work done by others when he could not or would not do it himself. You people with colored names who bought one in the last few months for example, you can thank Flasher that anyone bothered to check that you needed to be set up. But thats just one example, and I'd rather not make a long post longer by listing more.
So, I will also be leaving, but this time I will not be returning. I don't think less of anyone who stays, and I hope you enjoy your time here. But the circumstances being what they are, this is no longer a place for me. I'd like to thank everyone who appreciated all the hard work we were doing. You guys were the reason we did it
Kisses and hugs,
-Pinch
