I was thinking about how much more productive this Site would be if we had a Mod/Admin. Think about it, we could open new Sections and advertise the Forum without having to worry about SpamBots. So I figured we could contact Yoshi Mastar(The last Global Admin) and get him to make someone Admin. But I'm not sure if he even CAN! Of course, we could always get someone to make a ProBoards for us to migrate to, but I'm sure many are apposed to this Idea. I was planning on contacting YM but it's up to the Forum To decide.

I'm all for contacting him. The only problem is I don't think he will respond.

I actually meant people would be opposed to meant people would be opposed to Migrating over to a new forum. But if noone gets appointed Mod/Admin then we'll eventually have to... Or let the Forum die. Let's pray it doesn't come to that though!

Considering that this place has been on the edge of collapse since about 2 years ago, and it actually got BETTER I really doubt that this place will die out.

True, oh, and I sent an Email to YoshiMasta explaining the situation. I hope he responds! Also, if we don't have a Mod, could ProBoards shut us down?
EDIT:Why did you guys stay so long? I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm glad you stayed, but what kept you from abandoning Mariology Forums?

It isn't like we came here every day before, that users that hadn't left yet would just check back every couple weeks to see if anyone has posted. (Shadowgoomba will be in for a real surprise when he sees all of the activity)

Oh how I remember this place.... I first came here when it was brown orange and grey.... and the layout change.... aw nostalgia.... The banner at the top? I made that. I loved coming here and debating the many mysteries....
Anywho, I don't think I have the power to make anyone a mod or admin. You'd need an actual admin to do that.

Oh well, thanks for responding anyway, too bad we can't get a hold of Kamikaze Koopa. Also, I love you're Web comic, Yoshi's Forever! |

EDIT:Why did you guys stay so long? I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm glad you stayed, but what kept you from abandoning Mariology Forums? While I can't speak for others, I'll tell you why I stayed. I live the Mario series. I play it with friends and family, I contemplate the philisophical side of the series, and here, I have a place to debate it. The Internet is a big, scary place. And a nerd needs a little corner to hide in and discuss what he/she loves. And for me, my love is the Mario series. So yes, Mariology is my life. -anthem version of SMB theme plays- |

You just described my Life. Only, none of my Family/Friends like Mario. In fact, all of my "Real World" Friends say that Mario and Nintendo in General are "Just for 5 Year Olds". They think any thing that doesn't involve Guns and/or Mindless Violence is stupid and kiddy. Oh, well, I don't want to go on a Rant, but I do agree. Mario=Greatest Video Game(Fictional?) Character Ever! |

Exactly. And 10 years from now, when we're Goomba-stomping in virtual reality, let's all remember the first time we had an in-depth discussion about Mariology.

Hell, you described mostly-everyone-on-his-forum's life. ... except my mother hates video games, my father wants me to play more "mature" things, and my two IRL friends almost don't care about video games. o wait "And a nerd needs[...]" I'm not a nerd. Nerds / geeks / otakus are supposedly intelligent. What am I supposed to do now ? <_> |

Don't worry Koopalmier, we are our OWN sect, Mariologist! Though I do consider myself a bit of an Otaku!

I might stay and silently watch over you all, your like the next generation of an endangered race that must stay alive.
I emailed the other admins but I doubt they even still use their email or anything.

Why do people change their e-mail address anyway ? I mean, I have the same e-mail address since 2005 and I never had to change it. <_<
Anyway, that's nice to know that you'll log in once in a while.

I could understand getting more than one email but getting rid of an old one? That just confuzes people.
