Who is to say that if E3 didn't release the 3.60 keys. Correct me if i'm wrong, but weren't they released anonymously?

They said they would release keys so we could play all current and future releases I think. I dont remember but i'm sure it was along those lines. I'm too lazy to read back.

Well, this crazy and fun August month, on the PS3 scene, has started with E3 statement, so, in history, E3 started the real punch TB in the face... and then all the leaks (keys and cex2dex) have buried TB for good...

Okay, this got on my nerves. Saying that is implying you only care about the opinion of people above your rank (AKA Admin) and not the opinion of any people below your rank (which is the vast majority of the forum).
Would you like it if, when you were a normal member, you had a complaint against a Moderator and what you got in return was "Screw you, I'm a moderator"?
With great power comes great responsibility.

I have no real problem with your articles, I read all of them, most of them are somewhat interesting and I like your dedication to this forum (not everyone writes such long posts regularly). However, I can't really agree with you frontpaging it, and it feels to me that you're frontpaging posts in order to get more people to read your posts (AKA attention seeking), which isn't a valid enough reason IMO.

Here's a suggestion, why don't you make a poll to see how many people think your articles deserve being in the frontpage and how many don't? (which has nothing to do with whether people like your posts or not). I think that's the best way to settle this. If the majority votes for the former, then that'll shut everyone up. If the majority votes for the latter, I hope you'll think about this a little more.
Unless, of course, you really do not care about normal members' opinions.

There was a time...when a thread was created about my frontpaged articles included with a poll.
I was called *off* for a while to frontpage or indeed DO something about the news because:

1) My english is not understable.
2) My articles are not legible.
3) Im the one frontpaging them.

Newsflash about being s-mod:

In S-MOD status NEWS don't frontpage themselves most of the time. So i have to take my time as any S-MOD (Greg, Pirate, Annelies) to frontpage the one that got more *attention* or indeed was a release that many ps3 new sites share.
Or something valuable from a trusted users that used = Members news section to submit what he found.

Always when i frontpage others findings i frontpage FOR them and not with my name stamp all over the place.
Plus when i frontpage from member news if im the one making some correction (not typo, you know the drill) or using another source i always add at the VERY BEGINNING = THANKS @Username of the one who took his/her precious time to post in that section.

------------------------------

Opinion:

I have opinion of my own, i think for my own and i follow HAX rules. I can talk with the staff but go ahead and ask them if we go to parties or indeed we *socialize* in a daily basis about US as individuals.

Many times i was against Greg's words and many others times he was against mine, but you know what?. I had his back when something happened and he done the same for me. (Same happened with other members)
(When i reached S-MOD status).

When you said ADMIN you clearly making mention of PIRATE.
You can ask too about this, he was the one to promote me to MOD (thanks to HAX staff and S-MOD thanks to greg's recommendation) I don't have a daily basis communication neither about *how to piss everyone* and get away with murder.

The thing is = Im a HAX user.
As i was an user on many other boards (not related to PS3) and often in those ones i put myself in situations that not anyone want to face because they know the risks = my stay on the site (and im not that kind of user that own 40 different accounts on the same site) I spoke my mind when i saw something that was not right or *correct* according to my values.

And yes indeed i repeat this again, my attitude to defy a moderator always was a problem that ended with me not banned from the place but probably ignore not something that end my sleep time or my life.

BUT! as i said if i felt in that time that was injustice what happened or i created a thread about the problem or directly LIFT a complain towards that moderator.
If that complain did not reach or carry out anything at least i tried to do something about it.

When i SAID THAT is not because Pirate, neither Greg (annelies and all hax staff) will have my back if im plain wrong.
Is because im TIRED very tired of people water down my *Articles* labeling them as pure horse ****.
To that people i invite them to:

1) Ignore.
2) Lift a proper complain so the ADMIN of the site can crucify me for being an *******.

Final of this *testament*:

I always cared for the *normal users* as you wrote (but im not the one making a difference here, im not all high and mighty) i don't see normal users and super powered users ones. I only see USERS in a community where they ***** about my typo, my articles, me being here, me being there, me not being anywhere..etc. Every single friggin time i decide to do something of my OWN with information that already was posted on the community.

Hope this is CLEAR enough to end this stupidity.
As countless time i said, you can *remove my medals* but i know what i've done for hax in so little time.
And you know what? i don't regret nothing on this virtual *world* (neither in the real one).

So go ahead, suit yourself and remember next time I READ all the comments even the ones that i did not like or did not share the same idea as me.
It's my *JOB* to do so.

Thanks.

Almost forgot to say, im not the one marking or making a difference between users RANKS. I just state the obvious, you don't like something = Complain you have the RIGHT to do so.

P.s: Nothing personal, just something to EVERYONE to read or IGNORE xD

How E3 did not provide what they said? indirectly or not, eboots (most of them) are free on on 3.55 (so might have push some users to go back to 3.55).
And CEX-DEX might have help theirs sales,
(the only thing may be , E3 is not being see as the leader , cool team, but they may be don t really care about that part)
(well, i understand Hellsing9 article about it and i agree but try to have different point of view )

May be users who have infos still are affraid to speak and we ll never really know more than that.

They still have plenty of time, or they knew the obvious. What was coming = DEX/Keys/TB eboots.

They are *cool* on hardware flashers area but when they stated that..
Well someone seems that really needed to get it out of his of own chest for X reasons.

WTF, where have you been, you must rarely use these forums or front page, if you do not know who @jennys is.
