Please Read: Current Situation, Teams and Tension

Post by Gambid »

Hi guys,

as I wrote a few days ago, I was informed about the tension and the problems regarding the so called teams. I write this because some of you expect me to magically resolve the situation, when the key of resolving it is in your own hands.

I want to remind each and every one of you, the website and me as its owner DO NOT recognise teams as a forum structure. We have Admins, Moderators, News Posters, Members, …. but no Teams in the way some of you try to create. These teams are not official to the site and I DO NOT have authority over them in any way. I cannot add, remove members, point leaders or whatever. I do however have authority over the members of the teams in the exact same way I have the authority over each and every account here.

I have tried my best to stay as much away as possible and to give you the creative freedom you need in order to create mods the best way you can, only intervening when really necessary. I can enforce rules, I can activate managed mode in which I will review every post before it's published, BUT IS THAT REALLY WHAT YOU WANT? Me deciding over each word you say, watching over your shoulder all the time? Don’t think it is.

Diamond King (King Kollossus and the 1000 other accounts he has created here) is a problematic user and each time I had to intervene in the past year or so was because of a mess he made or participated in. But that is no secret to all of you and here is what I don’t understand. If you know his history here, why do you keep “playing” with him? You can’t really on your own will go to his teams, accept him as the “so called leader” and then, when things get out of control, as they inevitably will with him, come crying to me asking me to fix the mess. Sounds harsh, I know, but trust me I have your best interest at heart and this is something I think you need to hear and understand. With him things are ok as long as you keep doing the things his way. There is no reasoning, no respect and in his eyes he is never the problem.

If I could permanently resolve the problem I would. I can ban him as I have multiple times in the past, but he will just create another account and start his game again. Come friendly at first and before you know it he has already taken over, making decisions for you or trying to take over what you do.

I have a solution in place which will solve the problem on the site but will also limit the ability of new modders to join and this is why I haven't implemented it yet. I still believe we can resolve the problems without going to extremes.

About Facebook, Private Chats and YouTube. You have to understand, what you do there is out of my control. I will still try to protect you the best way I can, but my authority is limited to the MKSecrets Network. Don’t want to listen to him on Facebook, block him as I did and have no intention of unblocking him.

There is one last thing I want to remind each and every one of you. The modding forums have a structure. There is a category for mods, for discussions, for requests, etc… Each topic posted in the wrong place will be deleted or moved, based on my own preference. Don’t like this, don’t post in the wrong category.

I hope no one feels offended by this post in any way. If so, please know that this is not my intention, I just wrote the things the way I see and feek them because the whole situation is no longer acceptable and has to stop. I have no intention of sitting in front of my laptop or tablet when I am on vacation, cleaning your posts and topics and sending PMs trying to resolve the next Kollossus problem. This has happened more times than I am willing to admit. So I am starting an open discussion about the situation and not one hidden behind Facebook, Private Messages, etc… I want to know your opinion, ideas and suggestions.

So guys, how should we handle the situation?

I personally had never seen him before being on his first team, but I left rather quickly and finally convinced everyone else who kept joining his teams to leave him alone and just ignore him.

My personal opinion is that we need to just ignore him or people like him that show up. Don't respond, don't take the bait and start fighting with them, and don't let them gain any sense of control. Something else that might be helpful is some sort of rating or up-vote/down-vote system where after a certain number of down-votes the person gets temporarily silenced and if things don't change their account gets deleted. Something like that might help the community handle future Kolossos's

Also, thank you for deleting all the team related topics on here. Was seriously clogging up the section and making finding mods harder. :D

2.He trated us really like slaves,I have the proof in my signature if anybody wants to see it.

Mostly porting stuff on CoD

You are Right Sir Gambid Thank's for the help, Now i realize he send me lots of PM yesterday he is washing his hands for all he done to me wrong...(the one who idolized Binladen) same as his manners.
Sir Killer Potato and the others members found out of his true Agenda.
He alway's want a fight here in our community even new one's we must stay alert for new accounts here maybe one of his dummy Spy.!
He want's also to get my FB page to do what he want maybe to continue his bad intension in my public and private life there like he did to the other members here sad to know.
Being a leader of the team is not in his qualities because of his bad behavior towards his colleagues.

I'm glad to see you Gambid in on the situation. It was really getting out of hand and I tried my best to stay out of this.

A little update on the situation. Since the last escalation, several new Kolossus accounts have been removed from the site and his Google account has been blocked on our youtube channel, after even Google correctly recognized his messages as spam.

What I am saying is, he is not giving up yet, although if he is reading this, he should ask himself what's the point. No one wants him here.

If you receive private messages from newly created accounts, or see a suspicious account, inform me immediately and proceed with caution.

Have fun modding guys!

Anything Prince of Persia or Greece related is kollosus, or simply making fun of Arabs or terrorism.

Don't worry, there is no banning rule of the kind "Greek -> Ban" :D

But since we are about openness here about the situation. This message arrived in my private message inbox a few days ago:

=========================
Message subject: GAMBOOO
From: Roberto Baggio
Sent: 07 Sep 2016 11:46 pm
To: Gambid

Listen Gambo
no matter how many times u unfairly ban me
I will always come back and be in this site

King Kolossos and MKX modding cannot be separated. u arent strong enough to remove me from modding universe

ban my accounts I will make a new one
ban the site for me I will use VPN
ban my IP i will change DNS
ban my pc I will use one of my other PCs

but I will never stop. MKX modding is my life. theres no other MKX modding site so I am not leaving here. u like it or not. I will always be here
=========================

It was a follow up on several hateful comments of him on our YouTube channel.
And it also wasn't the worst I have received from him.

5 minutes later the account was banned.

A few months ago when he revealed that Diamond King is Kolossus and promised to behave. I told him that I will give him another chance even though I am certain I will regret it. Guess I was right :( Should finally learn to listen to myself.

However there are no second chances this time. The minute one of his accounts is exposed it will be banned.
