Nisorin didn't retire, he got de-adminned and QUIT. Not left in a noble sense of retirement like handing down the board or something to be honored. QUIT as in left as a quitter. I would say that'd be Removed staff. Not 'honored' as retired staff.

I find to much respect for Nis to agree with that decision. Let him be honored. Stop complaining.

Retired merely means he is no longer staff. This is not the place to have this conversation anyway. And he's been in that group for some time now.

Queen Bright · « **Reply #3 on:** May 01, 2012, 10:49:04 PM »

No, you keep putting him in the group. I keep taking him out. He's a quitter not a retiree.

Does it really matter? He's retired either way, quitting is a form of retirement. End of story.

Stop trying to incite an argument. Just let it be.

Nisorin · « **Reply #6 on:** May 01, 2012, 11:10:03 PM »

It's only natural for her to try and incite an argument over this, since she was the reason that I decided to retire as staff.

It's stupid for former staff to even get a damn group. When they're no longer staff they're members, the end. Putting them in a group honors them. And if they QUIT they should not be honored. The only one that really fits the honoring is Gaser, as he was forecefully retired. Nisorin? Nothing special.

K2 · « **Reply #9 on:** May 01, 2012, 11:59:42 PM »

Personally I'd want to be honored even if I quit staff. I'm sure you would too.

Queen Bright · « **Reply #10 on:** May 02, 2012, 12:00:30 AM »

Quitters don't get to be honored.

K2 · « **Reply #11 on:** May 02, 2012, 12:01:36 AM »

That's absurd, of course they do.

Queen Bright · « **Reply #12 on:** May 02, 2012, 12:02:27 AM »

And why should they? He didn't leave in some honoring ceremony or quit because of circumstances. He quit because he got de-adminned. GOT DE-ADMINNED. That is not something to be honored for.

K2 · « **Reply #13 on:** May 02, 2012, 12:04:27 AM »

No. His accomplishments that he made as staff deserve to be honored, rather you agree with Nisorin's actions or not, or rather you like him or not. Anyone who's served this board deserves to be honored.

Queen Bright · « **Reply #14 on:** May 02, 2012, 12:06:12 AM »

Honor is a thing earned. He had no accomplishments and quit when he was needed. THEN tried to get all the members to do the same. That's not honor that's trying to throw a revolt.

We don't honor Hitler.

He's the one who started SP back up and did most the planning after a year hiatus. He's the one who was sane and reasonable and kept staff functioning. He's the one who helped pay for this site, who kept it running even though everyone hated him for it. What did he get? Nothing. Nothing but pain and ungratefulness. If I were him I would have quit too. He shouldn't have to put up with this bullshit. He's done just as much as you and I have.

Queen Bright · « **Reply #16 on:** May 02, 2012, 12:10:59 AM »

Yeah, no.

K2 · « **Reply #17 on:** May 02, 2012, 12:11:46 AM »

Your personal dislike for him is not grounds for you to throw order out the window.

Queen Bright · « **Reply #18 on:** May 02, 2012, 12:19:38 AM »

It's not personal dislike and I don't appreciate you accusing it as such.

He has done nothing to get honored.

K2 · « **Reply #19 on:** May 02, 2012, 12:21:16 AM »

Besides, y'know, helping pay for the site, getting it off the ground after a year of downtime, and leading it, being the sense of reason. That kind of thing. And what have you done that's so worthy that he hasn't?

Nisorin · « **Reply #20 on:** May 02, 2012, 12:44:24 AM »

Guys. It's pointless to fight over something like this. I retired because my advice was going absolutely nowhere. No one took it, very few even considered it, and because of the railroading habits of a particular staff member I was unable to get anything done. Why should someone be a member of staff if they are rendered incapable of getting anything done because of another staff member?

Ragnar the Red · « **Reply #21 on:** May 02, 2012, 06:40:01 AM »

If a politician does dozens of amazing good things for his people, and ends with one bad thing, they will only remember the bad thing. Let's not be like this and actually remember Nis for the good he's done and not that he quit.

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #22 on:** May 02, 2012, 06:52:17 AM »

Hikaru. no matter what you may tell us, we all know that you're being biased. Nisorin fits the exact description of being retired. Quitting can also be synonymous with retiring as well. You're outvoted.

Queen Bright · « **Reply #23 on:** May 02, 2012, 07:07:21 AM »

Again. Why do we even need a retired staff group? It's stupid. Other forums don't do it.

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #24 on:** May 02, 2012, 07:16:58 AM »

The very same reason why we pay our politicians a 6-figure salary for life. He helped out the board during his time on staff, and he deserves to be recognized for said accomplishments.

Also, we arent like other boards. We're unique, unless you want to conform to the others and be normal like the rest of them.
