Event id #2065 : 3-Color-Logo Competition 2013
"Submitted by dandee [PM] on 7 March 2013
Bad news. Sorry to say, but Didi has been kicked out of CSDB and he asked me to tell you that the compo is canceled, as he can't take care from the outside. The reasons for kicking him are kind of a mystery to us and have not been told. Ask the admins of this very site for reasons. Sad to see another active guy, that actually contributed a lot (specially to growth of this archive) been thrown out. Sorry to all you guys who did a fabulous job and put much efforts into this, but under this circumstances you probably will understand that it does not make much sense to carry on with this compo. Never really been active here, but I guess I will deactivate my account as well. Take care..."
So, what happened here? |

yep... officially this isnt the szene. inofficially and proven by the reality, it is a big part of the szene and has almost the monopole for releasing stuff.
doesnt matter how someone calls it. |

time is rolling ...
CSDb is the place where we (still) like to release, comment, use the forum ... it's not heaven but really a good place.
CSDb lives because it's a matrix (or data base) well organized, full of info ... it's a free place and lives because of their users ... mainly sceners!
People are spending time to upload their or other works from the past and nowadays.
I'm sure we can split in 3 main groups, moderators did the right thing, diehard support to Didi, don't care at all!
time is rolling ...
there is a new component it's called proud, stupid and selfish ... usually destroy part of our lives or make it run in a different way ...
so before the things take the wrong turn and proud stop every humble position try : the moderator to give the opportunity to Didi to come back and Didi to accept it and be back ... this is obviously not related to the compo!
we are all responsable of our action ... there are no winners .... just losers .. and all we are. We lost Didi - active scene member and talented & skilled cracker - obviously not the stuff he hopefully will go on doin' -- laxity members are still here ... SPANKERZ HEAVEN TRIAD/ONSLAUGHT & GP bbs are still on - so we can get his stuff there.
We lost moderators serenity ... too much pressure it's not a good thing and they are risking to lose trustness too ...
We don't need to know the background of what the hell happened, we don't need to have a drama ... we just need our full community back as before.
Let's do it be4 time will run out!

There are some sceners who you would like to hear about time to time. Didi was one of them for me. It's not that we are good friends, it's all about our community being not that big enough. I don't want to hear less about any of you. I wonder what he might have done wrong to get kicked from CSDB? We all know that he wouldn't try to harm CSDB, right? So, what's the problem? Fucked someone's girlfriend or wife? It doesn't make sense to me and I'll be waiting for his come back. |

CSDB was one of the reasons, why I got all my discs transferred in order to upload to the database the missing stuff. Also finishing some project, CSDB as a motivator. So CSDB IS a part of the scene.
Have no idea what Didi did wrong, I can only say his work and his passion he put into the C64 is fantastic. So give us a REALLY REALLY GOOD reason why he is banned or let him come back immediately! |

i come to visit you. you tell me not to smoke weed in your livingroom. i then turn around and roll a spliff, light it and start discussing with you how smoking weed doesnt hurt anyone and basically is a good idea, and your idea of offering me beer instead is silly. then eventually i get my ass kicked and find myself smoking weed - outside of your house.
for short: if you can not respect certain rules eventhough you do not agree with them, you'll have to stay outside. being able to edit the database is a privilegue, not a right. there is no problem with not agreeing to the rules and discussing them (and infact that is a good thing and eventually even leads to changes now and then) - however downright shitting on them will certainly not get you what you wanted to achive.
and this ofcourse isnt specific to csdb at all, any other website/forum works like that. if the reasons for being kicked are really all that mysterious to didi, then i cant help.

that'd be pretty scary if that'd be the truth. the day when csdb constitutes the one single point of failure of the c64 scene - it is dead.

Completely guessing but now it seems to me Didi over criticized some CSDB rules, had a discussion with one (or more) of the admins, maybe he said something like "if it's like that, i'll leave this place" or even worse like "fuck off/you" etc with anger and admins said "so be it". I'm not saying that there was no reason to kick Didi out. But I repeat, i want him back (being not a close friend of him). I wouldn't get involved if it was some annoying lamer who deserved it but in this case, i want this problem to be sorted out even if Didi has deserved it. |
