New admins

[Glitchy]

Hmm, I leave for a week and while I'm gone the new forum falls victim to a nasty little spammer. Bummer. Oh well, I've I.P. banned him now, so I don't think we'll be seeing anything more from him. I'd also like to apologize to Franklint for not catching this earlier. If you were offended by any of the vulgar things that the spammer said to you, I'll assume full responsibility for not being here to remove it. I realize that there was nothing either of you two could have done to hinder his progress; global mods have very limited powers, and though they could be adjusted, I found it easier to just promote the two of you to full-fledged administrators. I feel that I can trust both of you and I think that it goes without saying that nothing with the layout/powers/ranks should be changed unless it's run by me first. So..yeah. Hooray for David and Franklint.

Now, on another note: Advertising. I do think that it's time that The New System Crash began to be advertised. However, I think that we should proceed cautiously while doing this. It's evident by the recent uproar of spam(which was caused by just one user) that we need to be careful where we advertise. I for one will put an ad in all of my sigs on various sites such as GameFAQs, and other proboards. You two can do what you like, but just be careful.

If there are any questions/comments, just let me know. Preferably in this thread, though it doesn't matter.

Haha. This makes me so happy. I think I am the happiest person alive at this moment. Thankyou soooo much Glitchy, I am absolutely stoked about my promotion. You are a great friend. Please don't apologise. It's totally fine.

OMG. Here I go, shaking again. Sweet. I am content with life.

Also, I have an update on the spammer. It is actually fully my fault, and I would like to move the blame off Glitchy's shoulders and onto mine. I hope people weren't too hurt by his stupid remarks.

You see, I decided to advertise the System Crash Forums, by word of mouth, around my year group at school to those who I thought would be genuinely interested. For example, "albake" is one of my friends at school who was keen to be involved.

One of my more wacky friends, who can be silly at some times and awesome at others, decided that, just to annoy me, he would make an account and spam the boards. I spoke to him in real life, and he has agreed not to do it again.

I am really sorry and, again, I hope he didn't cause too much distress. Please forgive me. It shan't happen again.

On a better note, I am still extremely happy to be an admin. All my friends are very jealous (well, some of them...).

I have a couple of glitches that I'm going to submit, however I have decided to wait until I can get hold of a video camera and I'll get some footage.

Glitchy, I'm really glad you didn't find my messages rude or impatient. I was clearly having a bit of a bad day!

I will put a link here in my signature on a few boards, and I will also make a thread on the Centre for Glitch Studies forum about this forum, to try and pick up some of the members from there, after the website got shut down.

Thanks guys. You're both great. Keep it up.

Cheers,
Franklint

Oh, dude, sorry, I don't come here as often as I should. I've been having computer and internet problems recently @_@

Anyway, thanks for making me an admin, I'll keep the link to this forum in my signature at Creative Worlds. They do have loads of good members and some of them like glitches, so with any luck we'll get some members from there. CWF's never had any spam problems, so I don't think there's any risk in advertising there.
