Committee
So, I've probably started a massive flame thread here, where each Committee Members "e-friends" will back them up saying "No, no you're wrong" etc. But let me share my thoughts on the current committee members, their decision making and the committee as a whole.
In no particular order:
Cola
Gamabunta
oNd (formerly Death)
Filp
Asthor
Zimtstern
Cameron
Justinph5
Henrod
Superman
More details to come. I haven't gotten the permissions set yet.
As you see in the above quote, they are the current Committee members. I was recently searching the memberslist to see when each member was last active.. Here's a few I was pretty shocked about:

Some people are going to say soon "Not everyone checks the forums every day like Kyuuchi does,
people have a life too" blah blah blah. Allow me to quote their applications from the nominating
thread.
How much time per week would you be willing to dedicate to resolving issues brought up to the committee?
I'm online at least 3-5 hours everyday. So probably that much.

- Every day.
Superman's application was editted.. Hm..
Anyway, this just shows that the commitment of some committee members just isn't good enough.
People have said they'd be online every day when on the committee, but they clearly aren't.
This could be holding back some decisions, causing the whole process to be backed up, and then
getting the public annoyed. Personally, I think jitspoe should remove the inactive committee
members from the committee, go back to the "Seeking Committee Volunteers" thread, and pick
some more members. There are a few good committee members also, Gamabunta and Asthor for
example. I check their profiles and they have been active generally every day. This is how the
committee should be..
Also, I'm pretty pissed off that Rick has been unbanned. I don't give a fuqk about him being
an "honest" distibutor, who gave himself up. That doesn't wash in my eyes. He still cheated.
He still broke the rules. In my opinion, ban times should never be removed. Never. If you
cheat/hack/modify/distribute stuff or do anything that's against the rules, you should be
punished and that punishment should stand. I also think that this has happened due to a biased
committee. Henrod, Justinph5 and Cameron. All good buddies of Rick. Also clanmates of Rick,
they obviously thought "Hmm, let's get Rick unbanned! Yeahh! Lets do it!!" they obviously set
up a poll in the committee members section, with options "Reduce ban, Remove ban, Keep ban"
I bet jitspoe didn't actually create the thread, but anyway. Rick should be banned. I have
nothing against Rick, just the fact that the committee unban him because he's their bud.
I don't care what the members have to say about this, it's obvious in my eyes.
Having the option to remove bans should be gone. They broke the rules, the punishment should stand.

(Btw, I wrote this up in notepad which is why there's a kinda column-style to the thread...)
