The ugly truth

[MJZiggy]

I suggest we take a cue from our president and give all of these positions "czar" titles.

I also agree there should be a way to donate. And banning people should be made an event, where everyone gets to say goodbye or go fuck yourself until you die, and the condemned is given a chance for his/her last words. Then we send them a $5 giftcard for Applebee's so there's no hard feelings.

I like that second part.

[SkinBasket]

You're a whore for Applebee's just like the rest of us aren't you? Nothing is as awesome as sub-microwave quality food and bartenders who don't know how to make any drinks.

FYI - I have suspended louderatlambeau because of one reason and one reason only. He owns another site so his shit stirring and BS are not ok when it comes to us discussing our forum. Once this is settled he will be taken off his time out and welcome back as a poster. I know this wont be viewed favorably but it is the kind of fucked up decisions that have to be made.

You are such a pussy. Back to threatening people to come to the "Poster Game" so you can fight them. You have been using that line for about 4 years now and if nothing else it shows just how fucking pathetic you are. You are the biggest hypocrite on this site, barking all the time, but because you threaten "your" posters from time to time you think it is ok. Jerk off.

I went to PM Louder at Lambeau and low and behold you blocked him, imagine that.

Some morons are going around still thanking you, and either they are just being nice, or they are half lit retards, you don't do fucking shit around here, hell Retail payed for the software that you were to lazy to work on for 6 months. you can't even fit the bill any more.

You are a tad bit more productive than I am with an internet forum, but that is only because I haven't ever created one.

[HowardRoark]

Ok, I'll throw my ideas out there.

I propose the following:

A Systems Administrator
Head Moderator for each forum
Three Member Rat Council
Front Page Website Facilitator
Packer Forum Discussion Champion
Marketing/Reciprocal Link Promoter
Bloggers
A Forum Administrator (not a moderator)


Systems Administrator - The person that oversees the design and construction of the website. This will involve working with a minimum of 2 volunteers who will implement said changes. The systems admin will have complete discretion regarding look, feel and functionality of this website. My Pick - Madtown Packer. (2 open volunteer slots)

Head Moderator for each forum - These people will regulate topics, determine appropriateness and pass out any needed infractions. Their decisions to relocate posts or censor posts will be final. I recommend that the leader of the rat council will serve as head moderator of the Packers forum, and the two other members will act as Packer forum moderators. (My picks listed later)

Romper Room Moderator - My pick - Deputy Nutz
FYI Moderators - Should be two, one from each persuasion - My picks - Mraynrand & Hoosier
Other Forums - (Light Traffic) - My Pick - Bretsky

Three member Rat Council - These folks will serve as moderators for the Packers forum, but they will also handle all poster relations and decisions. These folks will make the decision to ban membership and their decisions will be final. I suggest a leader and two members.

Leader - My Pick - Guiness
Members - My Picks - GrnBay007, Skinbasket

Front Page Website Facilitator - This person will have complete control of the content placed on the main page. Volunteers can write articles, but user posts & blogs can also serve as front page material as they choose. As many folks as are interested can volunteer to assist.

My pick - MJ Ziggy

Packer Forum Discussion Champion - This person is responsible to engage the membership in talking Green Bay Packer football, year round. They can start challenging topics, or serve as a frequent commentator to encourage discussion of other users posts.

My Pick - Patler

Marketing/Reciprocal Link Promoter - This person will work with other forum websites, other websites, and off internet relations to promote the existence of and the popularity of the PackerRats community. A number of volunteers can assist in this area.

My Pick - Scott Campbell

Bloggers - These people will maintain Packer related blogs by writing articles, or promoting other posters material as appropriate. We can have a maximum of 10 volunteer bloggers.

My Picks - Vince, KY Pack, Bretsky

Forum Administrator - This person is only responsible for user activation, email response, user group maintenance, and all the other miscellaneous functions (non membership decision making). This person will implement any rat council decision related to membership, but will have no voice in the actual decision.

My Pick - Retailguy



A couple of other notes. The marketing role and the front page design are very difficult to do without some money available to them.

With regard to marketing, I recommend that we create a fund that users can make a donation to, but is also supplemented by banner ads, ONLY FOR FOLKS THAT ARE NOT LOGGED IN. This software supports that functionality, and disclaimers can and should be placed that the ads will disappear immediately upon logging in under your user name. Banner ads should NEVER be visible to logged in membership.

With regard to the front page, I have found a couple of image website that allow the use of paid, copyrighted images. In the beginning, fees are nominal, and I would commit to funding these images myself for the 1st year. After that, hopefully membership will be such that another revenue stream will be found to continue this. We can, of course, use our own, user donated, copyright legal images where appropriate.

I have not spoken with ANY of these people, and I have no current decision making authority. These are my recommendations, and I invite your comments.

He said member.

[KYPack]

Well, that really takes some of the shine off things, eh Nutz?

I guess the whole Kumbaya spirit fades on your one post, Nutroll.

Much of what you say is true, Dep.

But it still won't kill this joint or anything.

You seem to have your own issues with Mad, probably from personal experience.

Go ahead and vent your balls off, that probably is part of the process. But lighten up a little, it looks like we might get things rolling again.

Muffucker.

[GrnBay007]

You got it, my Packer Queen.

Public humiliation as always been my strong suit.

I will make some filthy remarks about this challenge when I think of something funny.

Mad does have a temper...but he's Mexican! What do you expect?!? lol But seriously, he's trying to get this place back to the way it used to be. I don't have a problem with louderatlambeau as a poster...he seems like a cool Packer fan. BUT...he was promoting his site on this one. That's like the owner of Ben and Jerry's going to Dairy Queen and handing out coupons. Mad is burned out, but he said earlier he's trying to regroup and get back to working on this site and he even has a thread for suggestions so let's just cut him some slack and let it be.

[RashanGary]

Kudos go out to Justin Harrell, who was the only guy (I believe) to figure it out. I think in the end, Joe talked him out of his opinion, but he got it. Or at least, he was the only one to make the accusation. Congrats Justin. There is one other person who can confirm that what I’ve told you is true. They can speak up if they wish, or forever remain silent. It’s entirely up to them.

Thanks for the kudos. . . . .

but. . . . . you butthole!


And for the record, I never disliked you all. I was just one messed up dude for a long time. You guys got the brunt of that a bunch of times. To quote you, "I don't know what I don't know" or didn't know. Now I know or at least have an idea. It's been a hell of a last 9 months for me, I'll say that.

Since everyones coming clean, sorry you guys had to deal with such a nutter and thanks to madtown for seeing through by nutter exterior and knowing I was just messed up, not a bad guy.

someone needs to find mazzin

[Upnorth]

After 3 offseasons with tons of drama I was getting low on the male version of a soap opera, but this fill up the tank again. I have read this site since 2007 with out participating almost at all, but this is some amusing intrigue. I think this site will get a lot better now. Also thanks to all the regular posters here, you keep it a great site!

[Bretsky]

you should return on post more UN; you were always a great poster

[MJZiggy]

someone needs to find mazzin

Thanks, red, I think I've got it from here. And by the way, no one volunteers others for tasks without taking on some themselves. (I was going to say no one volunteers others for nudity without getting naked, but I don't need to see all that.)

Thanks 007 and KY! This could get interesting...

What else have we got?
