.:RND`=- Hotgreensoldier demotes a long time RND regular
RadioActivetomatoes:
All he said was that you have to "suck dick" to get admin, I can't see how this would mean disrespect to admins or the server..
Hotgreensoldier:
He was saying that most of our admins were merely based on popularity and it did not matter if they were bad ones or not. Basically saying "Oh, we just have admins who only spammed on the forums and "sucked dicks" making it seem as though we have poor administration.

That's your own interpretation drawn from apples statements on the application process.
Since when do regulars get demoted for voicing their opinions?

Just because player has been here a long time doesn't mean they deserve to be a Regular. They have to respect the players, including admins, and handle situations maturely.
Apple isn't really helping himself much by disrespecting the admin, but there could have been another way other than a demotion.

Yes I dont like choosing sides... I don't think he should've been demoted him for his own thoughts, it sort of reminds me of like what happened at UC Davis...Hotgreen I honestly don't think he should have been demoted just for that... If you have more proof, maybe that would be enough... But for now I don't think it's enough :/

Okay, time to clear this up.
First of all, please keep out of this unless you were involved directly - comments saying this was good/bad do not help at all.
Fine with that? Okay.
Now, after Hotgreen told me about this and we talked a little about this, I was thinking if a demote wasn't appropriate. This was not purely due to what he said in the screens (which was still stupid, I stand by that), but also because of what he said when Hotgreen joined again. It wasn't anything particularly bad, but it was just that kind of "oh no fuck hotgreen joined" - in my opinion, that's not how a Regular should act.
Just because someone has been a regular for a long time, does not mean they are in any way immune to any kind of punishment. In fact, they should mostly know better than this.
Also you're forgetting two very basic things.
First, Mr.Apple can re-apply whenever he wants or could just go ahead and talk to Hotgreen over STEAM CHAT - obviously he doesn't want to discuss it in-game, it's a bad environment to discuss stuff in because people constantly yell at you for whatever you say.
Second, why would he quit just because he lost Regular? If he was a wire player, I'd understand. But there's absolutely no difference between being Guest and being Regular on TTT other than the shiny tag.
I think the demotion was appropriate, seeing as how he acted during this and later on.
(Also I deleted all the posts that weren't really helping, don't give hotgreen even more flak)
