I know what BF was about, and yes, I do plan on changing it. If you were completely satisfied with the previous state of the forum, then the new BF is not for you. It's that simple.

In order for the change to go my way, there has to be rules. I'm being as blunt as I can here.

By definition, a forum does not restrict content, at all. Even in its previous state, BF had some restrictions as to what content was acceptable. I invite all members to participate in an open, regulated discussion; but you're right, it's not true to the word. The only Internet forums that don't regulate content are underground forums.

Fair enough.

I left, spamming porn, so I'd stay gone. I got myself banned so I wouldn't be able to come back essentially.

I've said for ages that the forums needed change, and finally someone is doing it.

Ah, well.

We now have a forum for Forum Ancients & Elders.

Please see it for an explanation.

Perhaps he was interested in seeing the changes, as I am?

Rather than discussing Magical Trevor's new found interest in the forum, let's discuss the actual topic.

If you have a problem with a certain member being unbanned, or even just a member in general, you're welcome to PM Roach or/and me with your argument and we'll discuss it.

Do us all a favor, stop with the attacks.

I don't want to have to start the infraction system again. It's an absolute pain. I would hope the community is above that.

The hacking forums are still in existence.

Thus far I am a little enlightened with Max's enthusiasm. Judging by his professionalism, I don't think he's ProXie, but then again, THAT Max has confused me with his maturity beyond his years before.

I'll be watching. Perhaps if things do become the way you are wanting them to, I might just go back to helping. I stopped caring once this place was turned to tyranny, prove me wrong, sir. Prove me wrong.

A little more personal information from you, Max, would probably take a chip off of my shoulder. Such as what you do for a living, your previous web experience, stuff like that.

ok, apparently i REALLY missed something...

i wasnt visiting the forums much before they went down (i think i was gone for a week or 2, then they were doen)

what happened? whered eric go? did he mention he was selling it? whos this max guy? and i see that "x" is banned now? how that happen? also wheres the battlestaff >.<


anyways, after those questions are asked, id like to make another lil som' som':

Hi max, my names David, ive been around for quite some time, and i have no clue who you are. Not saying i dont like you, just dont know you. Mind introducing yourself a little more? as for you now being the owner of this site, im a little iffy with having someone ive never heard of run things, but we'll see how it all turns out, good luck to you and to battleforums.

No, you haven't censored anything I said, but I didn't say much yet anyway. And you are judging people you hardly know. Those you've banned.

Still, rather strange, you saying you do not know me. Specially since you said you were here when BF was at its prime. What time line do you define as BF's prime?

I was not happy with the state BF had, no. Hence why I kept bugging Eric out of the admin team. Still think he sucks, but perhaps under someone intelligent he'll be a good subordinate.

Oh, it had restrictions. But it shouldn't (except for stuff that breaks servers rules, doh). Remember, people were assassinated in Roman Forums, which makes it valid to murder the admins' opinions here too. Or did. I see this will no longer resemble Rome. Or at least the Republic.

Mr. Cheese, the past few posts you have made today are starting to get all my nerves, and I'm a patient man, so that's bad. From what I've seen from Max so far, I don't think you will have to worry about that. He's looking at patterns, not **** ups.
