Title: Battle Plan
Cute lil Fox - January 6, 2009 12:15 AM (GMT)
Hello members of TTFF! As most, if not all of you, know by now Trixie has granted me her position of Lead Admin of the Two Tailed Fox Forums. This is just a topic to point out I am now here to officialy do that job, and all your inquiries that originaly went to Trixie now goes to me. Make no effort to make Trixie do any staff related activities, for she won't do them...that's not her job anymore. XD
So here's a few things on my mind.
1: Bare with me. XDD I just got this position, and I'm figuring out the ins and outs of the board, what I can and cannot do. I also understand it maybe a little weird for some of you to look at me as an authority figure (those who have known me for a while) but all I ask is for respect when I ask you to do somthing, nothing more. I am still CLF, and I'm still the member I was before I was lead Admin. I'll still RPG, and I'll still have the random shpeals I had before. Also respect Trixie, even though she's not Lead Admin anymore. I still consider this Trixie's message board, and it always will be.
2: I would like to get the weekly TTFF newspaper up and running again. Members have tried doing that before, but for some reason kind of dropped. I want to try and get it rolling again. Any leaders of the newspaper I would like you to PM me with what exacly happened that stopped the re-birth process, and maybe work with you to make it happen.
3: We have a situation right now of members making multiple accounts and hiding IP's with Proxies. If you see an account suddingly get banned, most likely newer one's (Such as Leon), that's a possible explination. As you know, members found to be using Proxie's or banned members using multiple accounts are banned on sight. You can still ask for explinations to why a member gets banned, but this may supply a peace of mind.
4: Since Cryst left, look forward to a changing of the staff guard. Some staff upgrades are in the foreseeable future.

I'm thinking dealing with the newspaper....maybe I can help. I won't be able to write anything for it but maybe I can scout out any interesting topics if can get running. :P
Cute lil Fox - January 6, 2009 12:28 AM (GMT)
Well Red that'll be up to whomever become's in charge of the Newspaper. I just want to get it up and running, I don't think I'll have much say so to how it's run, that will be up to the editors.
Red Fox - January 6, 2009 12:30 AM (GMT)
:P I am aware you will have no run over the newspaper....I'm just simply trying to find ways to help....Yet I don't feel like i'm helping at all...feel like being more of nuisance...
Missy - January 6, 2009 12:35 AM (GMT)
We actually have editors of the newspaper and we all agreed in that topic to write our articles and send them to me so I could put it together. Unless IC wants to do it the whole thing again, that's fine with me. ^^;
Red Fox - January 6, 2009 12:40 AM (GMT)
Umm...who's IC? I guess that menas everythings fully set up for the newspaper then?

IC = Evil King Stan (her name used to be Immortal Cookie)
Missy - January 6, 2009 01:01 AM (GMT)
Yeah everything is set. Unless you wanna do a part ^^; You need to provide a specific part you will be writing
Mazcaeks™ - January 6, 2009 01:04 AM (GMT)
IC did a great job of the paper, but that was over 18 months ago. It'd be awesome if she wanted to start it back up again the way she did, but it's a long shot.
Red Fox - January 6, 2009 01:21 AM (GMT)
I want to provide an article for a newspaper...But the problem is....i've done anything like this before....My first question would be....what type of newspaper is this gonna be? With this knowladge I might be able to to give something you guys can consider.
Missy - January 6, 2009 01:35 AM (GMT)
Here's the first topic:
http://z15.invisionfree.com/Two_Tailed_Fox...showtopic=15435Second topic:
http://z15.invisionfree.com/Two_Tailed_Fox...showtopic=15567Which of course Kotetsu possibly can't be an editor anymore, he's banned. But yeah, we mostly just chose our own
Evil King Stan - January 6, 2009 01:35 AM (GMT)
--springs-- Eeee! I'd be more than happy to start the TTFF news paper again! Once everything gets settled and if people would like to add articles, you can PM me or post here in this topic, and I'd be glad to allow you to help me put it together!
EDIT: And I knew that Leon kid was a fake. Somehow I just knew it was someone trying to pull BS. D:
knnywood364 - January 6, 2009 02:24 AM (GMT)
I think I'm the only one to write an article for the last paper attempt, you can PM Missy for it because she was the old coordinator.
Roronao - January 6, 2009 02:29 AM (GMT)
Battle Plan. WE STRIKE AT DAWN FOR THE GLORY OF THE REPUBLIC OF TTFF!
Wait, wait, that was just a metaphor? Dangit...*stows away armor*
I'll bear with you. Don't think we'll have to do that long, though, you'll probably catch on soon. TTFF Newspaper? I'd be more than happy to contribute articles on anything in particular if needed, or if I just feel like it. Third. Leon got banned? Kay. I was predicting a banstorm would be coming soon anyways. I got that old feeling in my left arm. Fourth? Well, I saw that coming from a while away, at least since two mods (one demoted, but you know) got banned. When Crystatic left, well, it was just a given. I hope you make good choices.
Luck to ya,
Roronao
Evil King Stan - January 6, 2009 02:35 AM (GMT)
I will start to write a newspaper up tonight or tomorrow and muster up all I can to make it as entertaining and interesting as possible, and then I'll consult you guys, show you what I have and see if you'd like to add anything. How's that sound? :]
Cute lil Fox - January 6, 2009 03:04 AM (GMT)
Sounds good! Wow, fast, you must be very anxious. XDD OwO
PM me with the paper, and I'll aprove it, then you'll be able to post it.
Roronao: XDDDD *falls of chair*

You bet! I'm the kind of girl who likes to get crap done. I don't wait, because I don't like waiting; I start things quick. :]
Red Fox - January 6, 2009 03:32 AM (GMT)
with college starting in a week I might have to stow away my plans of putting something owrthwhile on the site for a while.
Hawkfrost - January 6, 2009 05:47 AM (GMT)
I must be pretty stupid then...I actually believed Leon was a legit member. Who was she anyway? Naomi? Anyway I hope all goes well with the newspaper and hope it continues to be a success.

Hah, don't worry, that's what I thought at first too before my subconscious was telling me there was something funky. This is why I'm not going to trust new members or consider them legit members until it is proved they ARE legit members. Of course I'd still treat them with respect, just in case. ;D
Thierry"TrueAim"Prower - January 6, 2009 07:09 AM (GMT)
You can count me in to.
Tell me what I can do for you and I will do it without hesitation. With College running again some things might have a slight, and I really mean slight, delay. Nonetheless I do what is asked me. Do what you say and say what you do.
Monty - January 6, 2009 07:51 AM (GMT)
We going to war? o_o"
/Clueless
Anyways, Good luck running the board. I know how stressful it can be, I used to run one myself. (The board closed down after a wave trollers and spammers set in which made our mod quit ._. )
H.Ashes - January 6, 2009 05:05 PM (GMT)
I PM'd Missy the review I did for Rock Band 2. If she still has that PM, she can relay it to you IC.
Saki - January 6, 2009 05:59 PM (GMT)
Could I help out with the newspaper?

Awesome, I'm friends with the Root Admin!
Special treatment here I come!
Red Fox - January 6, 2009 06:58 PM (GMT)
I have a topic I can write a bout one that i'm neatral to for I don't have all the information. I'll give the idea & if give go ahead for a ok idea i'll start writing. will all depeind if subject ok. 'Favoritism within the staff? could this all be true or is it a big wet lie someone said cause they were mad? The topic will be weighed here.' (Not title or maybe...unsure but just a small description havn't started even gathering data unless someone already doing something like that.)
Evil King Stan - January 6, 2009 08:46 PM (GMT)
LOL@ Strelok ;D
Saki: Of course you can, just as long as I approve that the subject is appropriate for the newspaper. ^^
H.Ashes: Excellent! Hey, I really like the game review idea. This makes me think, maybe the newspaper can have a gaming area as well? Like, we could have people write reviews for games if they'd like to, and we can have upcoming game releases, good games and all that stuff! :B
Thanks! I will consult Missy and see if she still has the PM. ^^
Red Fox: Hmmm... I don't know... I mean, I like your idea, but I don't know how the rest of us would take it, ya know? It MIGHT start drama, it might not, and drama is really the last thing we need.. Hmm.. Try asking CLF about it, maybe he can help decide. ^^;
And guys? Just so you know, I WILL be proof-reading and editing your stuff, so if you're going to send me articles and things for the newspaper, at least do me a favor and write the best you can - I don't want crap writing, okay? :]
I am going to go ahead and post up the part of the newspaper I have now, and then you guys are gonna help me with your ideas to help make it better, and I will edit the newspaper and put in your stuff. Just so everyone is aware of WHEN new things are put into the newspaper so they don't have to go back and forth, I will keep note of things in my signature so you can look at that, I'm sure I have many posts about that will be there to notify you. Is this okay?
Any objections? ^^
Hawkfrost - January 6, 2009 08:57 PM (GMT)
Could I help out with the newspaper too? I want something Sonic in the paper. Like maybe review an old game, a character, A book or even a couple! I'll start by reviewing Sonic 3D Blast for the MegaDrive. And then I'll put a poll up for "Sonic character of the week". What do you think IC?
Red Fox - January 6, 2009 09:01 PM (GMT)
My intention is not to bring more drama...i'm intending to solve a long running issue i've seen stated by members who sadly I can't even remember who they were but it was a quite a few in different areas of the furm. i was feeling if we could solve this issue maybe through something like this...or even make it more friendly thus hopefully more easily solvable...show each side of this issue. But if it will create to much drama...Then I will happily drop the subject. Still I will wait & let cLF review my idea.

*_* I think that would be a great idea! This is a Tails forum, afterall! Mhmhmhmhahahaha! This newspaper is going to be huge! :B Thank you very much for another good idea! ^^
EDIT:
Redfox: Yeah, I suppose it would be alright as long as you showed BOTH sides... I think that would be a lot better. ^^ Still, let's wait and see what CLF says. ;D
Hawkfrost - January 6, 2009 09:07 PM (GMT)
Great! I'll go start my review now! :T0:
Evil King Stan - January 6, 2009 09:09 PM (GMT)
Awesome! Thank you! Make sure to PM it to me when you're done! ^^
Hawkfrost - January 6, 2009 09:11 PM (GMT)
I need to know something first before I start anything...When's the deadline for all this stuff?
Red Fox - January 6, 2009 09:33 PM (GMT)
*eagorly walks around waitng for CLF's review leaving a gaping hole in the floor* OOps....i'm a little eager. :P
Roronao - January 6, 2009 09:46 PM (GMT)
Awesomesauce. I'll go write my Sonic Chess set update...*checks watch*...mmm....just a mo'...take a deep breath in...and then out...NOW
EDIT: Or maybe Sonic Universe? Hmm...more thinking...more breathing...let the oxygen flow soothingly throughout your bo-SCREW YOU YOGA VIDEO I'M DOIN' MAH WORK NOW
Cute lil Fox - January 6, 2009 10:06 PM (GMT)
To Red: Freedom of the press, it's out of my hands. XDDD The Newspaper staff can write about anything they want, as long as it's not Libel (Written Slander, or stuff that's not true), bashing, or bias. I reccomend though, Red, if you were to do this story, get interviews.
Your job is to report the news, keep that in mind. XD ^^
Thierry"TrueAim"Prower - January 6, 2009 10:13 PM (GMT)
I am not sure how I could be of help now. So far things are going as they should yet I can't really take the waiting for to long. I know patients is a virtue, but I wish to help to. I know some of the board coding yet I need to polish my knowledge on that part a little.
Be sure to ask me if I can help. I really want to help restore the TTFF, if not improve.
Red Fox - January 6, 2009 10:14 PM (GMT)
will do i'm gonna ask for some help in gathering data.
Roronao - January 6, 2009 10:27 PM (GMT)
Alright, I have totally sent in my article for the newspaper on Sonic Chess. Now, do you evaluate these and put them in if you think they're good enough, or put them all in regardless?
Missy - January 6, 2009 11:34 PM (GMT)
Omg omg omg omg omg omg I want an interview! D:
I've never seen so many people pitch in before, this surely is pretty awesome ^^
