so im curious

[Leyrann]

What was it back then? Because currently it's simply the rank above Asha'man, the highest non-staff rank.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

It was the lowest staff rank and the only one you achieved with points afaik. The week I attained the rank the rules were changed so that it was no longer a staff position. Go figure.

 

The place was more active then and staff easier to come by of course.

 

The offsite board became more split off with time and eventually iirc offsites were officially banned by the ppl who run DM (I think that rule was rescinded a while back tho), and they kind of petered out over the last few years.

[Leyrann]

You're right, I remember that... It was changed because otherwise everyone could randomly become staff and there would also come far too many staff.

 

But be honest, you don't want to be a staff member, do you?

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

I don't now. I would have then.

 

I had the time and I cared about the place.

 

But it could not have been any clearer that I was never going to be allowed onto a staff board, and that's not my loss so meh.

[TheMasterDude]

Yea AL was staff only before. And the offboards were shut down to Vanion not being able to keep up with anti-spam bot updates and decided just to shut it down.

[lord of the dawn]

yeah, depressing all around honestly, it came as a surprise that they were gone, and all those memories with it. gosh darnit i dont want to talk about it anymore. aside from that, i have no access to DM's light or shadow stuff, namely because i used to spend so much more time on the offboards haha 

[Shadar Alantin]

 

hello, and im not that old gosh darnit

 

You are. You went inactive in 2009, which meant you probably got here 2007 or something like that, or heck, maybe even 10 years earlier. Anyways, 2007 is already eight years ago. I don't know how long ago you've originally joined, but do the math.

 

 That little fact does not seem true, time flies. seems like only yesterday.

[Aiel Heart]

Well another problem that we were having was that, for some groups, all of the group activity was on the off boards and not on DM, which was taking away from DM's ratings, funding from ads, etc. 

[Talya]

yeah, thats were i spent the majority of my time, i miss it haha. but its gone, so here i am haha

 

but yeah, used to be a mod over there for a little bit before i fell off the wagon so to speak

 

And you can back on the wagon and join us here...
