Handle id #572 : Groepaz

This person is a moderator here. However, he sets a bad example by entering a completely off-topic "review" for a demo release:



Also, what's up with this "sir" thing that people seem to do nowadays in place of a direct insult?

Quote: Quoting Kisiel
the atmosphere of this site is gone, two of my friends left this site because of "G-nazi" moderator.

I agree with Kisiel. In fact the only reason Im on this site today is because I got an email from CSDb that it was 5 month since my last logon and they would close my account if I didn't log on within an month. So I logged on only to find that there are still problems with Groepaz..


I don't see why a moderator would scare someone away. If you don't like the lyrics, just skip the song.

But I was suprised to see that one of my review posts got censored, even though it didn't contain any religious or anti-nazi propaganda.

all two deleted posts of yours i can find have been deleted because basically they wouldnt make sense anymore after the deletion of a bunch of other offending posts you were relating to. (basically they both say "please stop that shit here" :)) it also was in 2009, when there was an uproar and ppl demanding such actions. we do it *very* seldomly these days as you might have noticed :)

as for the thread necrophilia - i seriously think that most of this grudge from poland comes from the undoubtly existing language barrier. i know i have a hard time decyphering this bablefish-english most of the time, and more than once i could only guess what someone was trying to say. other than that i can assure you that there is no secret (or even open) conspiracy against poland. and we dont make a difference between polish sceners and german sceners. i find the thought of this hilarious to be honest. let alone the fact it apparently was important to quote a post from 5 years ago, about an issue that has been long resolved and forgotten.

Besides that, congratulations to those who redundantly post csdb releases on facebook. I guess in a year or so, the internet will explode from the pressure of too much crap.

Also, if you make your presence dependent on a single (in your view) asshole, that i can just pity you. I consider so many people an asshole, and i am still there and active.

If anyone feels like more whining, go on, the laughs will be on my side :-)

Hein: It seems like Groepaz wants to moderate everything including the content of releases, and uses CSDb as a platform of doing so. If someone don't do as he wants, he starts a crusade against them and repeats his opinion over and over again accompanied by degrading remarks. Here is an example from the 'Bongo Linking Engine':

its only the tip of the iceberg regarding this trainwreck. and that it wasnt fixed although well known says enough.

i just find it hilarious that someone would insist on this trainwreck of a documentation to be great stuff, thats all. and all i am doing is hinting at the fact that having someone rewriting it (and the on screen texts) in proper english would improve the whole "product" a lot.

and i am pretty confident that i am not the only one who wouldnt touch this stuff. a few comments on csdb mean nothing really.

There are plenty of more example like these. Now, if he was a normal user, he would just be an average bully the crowd, but in here he is the lead moderator (Well, at least the most active), and sets the tone in the forum. He should be moderating the forum, not launching unmotivated attacks agains people.

Not taking any sides here, but it sounds like people think groepaz
shouldnt be allowed to voice his own opinion about things (such as a release on csdb) just because he's a moderator.

Stainless: Ofcause he is allowed the voice his opinion. But simply stating it again and again while telling how stupid he thinks people are because they don't share his view, and bad he think their releases are, kills a constructive discussion.

In the given example, he could simply just state once that the text needed some proofreading. Why use words like 'hilarious' and call it a 'train wreck', and use a sentence like "I am pretty confident that i am not the only one who wouldnt touch this stuff".

All the author did was making a release on csdb. Did he deserve this from a moderator?

I fully agree with you.

This forum should encourage people to do better demos,gfx,msx or hardware no to offend people. If something happen like this, moderator should delete such a comment not MAKE this comment.This is difference between good moderator and bad.
For example:
Groepaz could say: Artphosis is a slide show worst then Animated Act, coding is on level as it was in middle 80's, only design keep this crap on level of 90's. Krill's loader make this demo not compatible to all drives... etc.
Yes, Greopaz it is sad but true, but also you are the moderator and you should moderate your comment about Artphosis a.s.a.p.

Another example:
Groepaz:
"as for the thread necrophilia - i seriously think that most of this grudge from poland comes from the undoubtly existing language barrier."

We call him nazi moderator because, Slammer comes from Denmark, Groepaz comes from Germany ;)
We are good, because we come from "P"oland
We have good coders, gfx and musicians to offend.

But finally you will be on this web site alone.
