We need a new admin!!!

We have started this petition because we feel Stacy is abusing her power as Admin on the S4F forum!! We can have NO fun at all. Here is her response to PMs to BuckeyeGirl about the signatures a few of us had.(what Buckeye said is in red)....

We need for all members to feel welcome and included on this site, I have had over 20 messages relating to this topic.

I am going to have to ask everyone involved to please remove your "logo" and keep the secret club strictly to pm's and not in the forum.

Thanks OrchestratedNoise for removing your sig.

I went ahead and removed everyones sigs with the logo.

No offense Stacy but that is flat out ridiculous. You want your site to be fun and thats all we were having. So sad that people cant see past it. kinda petty if you ask me. Like ALOt of other members have said....this place has changed alot even since I became a member. Its just not as enjoyable.

I am sorry you feel that way, unfortunately, you don't remember how it use to be on this site, when we had a different super mod. I have done my best on here to make this site a fun and fair place for ALL members involved. I even use money out of my own pocket for contests, just so the members can have fun.

But your comment that you left on the site "It just really sucks that we can't seem to have fun on here anymore and everything is just so uptight."

For one thing, its impossible to make every member on this site happy. But I do try. Uptight how? Because I wont allow you to have a secret group on here? I read the posts, where members ask whats the secret, and another member replies, well, wait for so and so gets on the site, sorry, that wont cut it. We encourage members to join, not stay away because they feel a certain group has taken over.[/
There was NEVER a secret group. If someone PMed one of us or asked we would tell them. Nothing to hide. So no that's not the reason. Its uptight b/c it seems anything we do to try to have fun gets shot down is all. Ive heard more complaints than ever about how this place is going down hill. Even from mebers who have been here since day 1. The only place I have ever read about this place having "cliques" is that stupid freebie critic. Noone on here has ever complained.....atleast to us. Im sorry you get all the negative responses. We just want to have a little fun is all. No harm done. We removed our sigs and apologized.

Interesting that some say this site is going down hill when the statistics are through the roof. More then ever. Might want to take a look at who is the ones saying that comment.

And exactly what fun has been "shot down"?

the socks game?
the sample trade game?

What is that suppose to mean? Sounds kind of harsh to me. Sounds like you are calling older members liars or not worth anything./.....to me. I dont want to bicker or fight over something that is EXTREMELY petty but I need to stand up for myself. Its actiually new and old members alike saying that. Like someone PMed me a little bit ago and said that they saw no problem with what we did. We NEVER excluded anybody. We all post and respond to everyone's threads. We dont just talk amongst ourselves. The sock thing wasnt a game...it was a fun activity to include all members to have some fun.
The fun being shot down is being goofy and saying what we want without being rude to anyone of course....but then something gets said and there it goes....such as the whole signature thing....petty. I totally agree that the Mods do a great job there is no denying that one. I hope things get better. I'm not the only one thinking about leaving for atleast a little bit. ALOT of members (new and old) are feeling the same way but are scared to PM you to let you know how they feel in afraid of being banned.,....

By all means, have them pm me. A member has Never been banned for pming me with a comment or opinion. As a matter of fact, a member has only been banned because of swap issues.

Harsh how? Never once did I call ANY member a liar and I take the time to get to know each member on this site, so please do not accuse me of saying or even suggesting that that I would think any member is not worth anything . Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and unless things are going on that I am unaware of, never once was a member shot down for being goofy on this site. I care about this site, and each and every member on here. If I didn't, then I would not be on here, or do what I do for this site.

I have obligations to each and every member on this site. And yes, the sock game was a fun activity for all members, thats why I agreed to it.
