[Noire ♜]

This post is in response to laced's reply to me --- thanks btw. While I do respect a lot of the takes you have, I also have my own recollection of the events as well so they might differ a little bit.
I’d first like to apologize to Jack. This thread should just be a lot of commendation and criticism regarding whether or not you are fit for staffing on the server and sadly, in some places it has devolved to bickering between older members that ultimately drowns out the takes of the new players who are active now. I selfishly goaded this response and selfishly again, I will make my final post entertaining this.

• Now on to the reply proper, your first point that talks about a conspiracy to get Damien demoted is a bit far-fetched. Now, it’s no secret that a lot of the people within the group that I currently play games with don’t like Damien for some reason or another, of course this would translate into how they would view him as staff, however, outside of making responses on the thread/staff chat there was nothing else past that. If anything, now it is a moot point considering that given our current staff team Damien is probably one of the better ones out there, genuinely. Big ups on you man.
  
• Second, the meme. First, haha how ironic. Second, I don’t remember any meme like that, but I’m here one week and gone the next, as temperamental as the weather is right now.
  
• Third, yes, I am defending Jack, while also condemning him for what he said to you. Here’s the thing that you and Jack don’t fully understand: Two things can be true at the same time. I am defending Jack, as my friend and obviously biased cause duh, the same way I defended and argued for you when you wanted to join the staff team again.
  
• Fourth! The shit talking. Yeah, no shit I’ve already made a thread about this: https://www.dinklebergsgmod.com/site/sho...?tid=17589
  My point still stands. This community is probably still alive because of shit talking and drama. HOWEVER, if people are being hurt by it and have come to complain about it, why not reach out and prevent some of it rather than letting it fester and turn into resentment? I want to right my wrongs to those people that made those complaints, personally.
  
• Yep, been there done that. Micspammed jesse stuff last night, had fun. Nothin new for any of us.
  

• BillyBob is wild as hell I can’t contain that man; he speaks for the trees man. He isn’t defending my opinion. However, some of his wild ass takes actually have a bit of underlying truth and legitimacy to them. You gotta dig for it though. If anything, I think he’s very similar to you, done wrong by the community that he loved and now he’s trollin a bit.
  
• I always jerk the homies off (only sometimes in a circle)
  

This has never been an issue of the toxic cliques clashing. This has been an ongoing issue for the past two years and has happened mainly off Dinkleberg’s Gmod main servers that is now bleeding into the forums and manifesting as some big thing. Our large group of friends was divided by some of the arguments that you and Dong had and when Jack said what he did, it was the nail in the coffin. The line was drawn in the sand and just by association people were kicked, shunned and blocked. I know that I believe that I am friends with everyone within both groups, just as if it were still the one and I’d love to rekindle a lot of those relationships that were instantly stripped away from because of something that was outside of my control. While, of course, I cannot speak enough about how what Jack said was wrong, no matter how much it hurt you it cannot solely define him, his actions or his friends.
That’s enough of my takes for this thread that again, should have only been whether Jack is fit for the position of trusted. If you or anyone else wanted to reach out to me here’s the olive branch, let’s play some games or you can ask me any questions. My discord DMs are open, hmu.
 
Thanks for reading (or not) my selfish response,
Jack 4 trusted fuck your forum postin rules bitch this is how we do it in the hood!
