Unfortunately, what will happen is there will be the polite corner of the fanbase and the asshole corner of the fanbase. Because if we're being honest, what some people are calling for is a forum where they don't have to filter themselves, which is code for "I want to be an asshole and I don't want anyone to be able to call me on it." And that's how you get people like NW. He is an asshole and nobody called him on it.

I think most members of the old school PCEFX community liked the idea of a group effort on moderation where admins/mods rarely stepped in. Clearing out the spam bots and kind of leaving it as a free-for-all in most regards.
Unfortunately, that also resulted in lots of dog-piling and a lot of people getting run off who didn't need to be. It also meant it took longer to get rid of people who needed to be gotten rid of.
I agree 100%. ProfProf attempted to run me off because I had the audacity to show my Tool-assisted Turbografx speedruns. Quell horror! And yes, I also vehemently disagreed with the idea that high Turbografx eBay prices were 100% the fault of some evil cabal of sellers. The dog-pilling on everyone who didn't drink the PCEFX kool-aid was too much.
If he'd succeeded, then Catastrophy would have never existed (as oppose to sort of existing now). I'd like to think I've contributed to the community positively. Yes, there are plenty that still don't like me, but I've also made some great friends in this community.

Hey DK, can you give us some Catastrophy updates? I think we'd love to hear how things are coming along, even if the updates are boring or even, "I had an idea about changing X but no time yet."

I've been meaning to make a thread, since the last one is at the dead PCEFX. There's just not been much to post, as I had an incredibly busy summer.

He was banished and his posts deleted by the lunatic running that place. One of the many reasons we’re all here now. Correction: NECROMANCER'S POSTS WERE NOT DELETED!

I just checked my email before going to sleep and it looks like I have a couple notifications of pms from Nightwolve. They're hard to understand, but it looks like he read a thread like this with a url from my site, which didn't work when I tried to look at it. Did someone use superpcenginegrafx.net as a redirect for an alias of this forum or pcefx or something.
I'm not sure if the messages are quoting from pms to or from various people or maybe they're from someone else quoting Nightwolve's correspondence. It says something about lying about Necromancer and trolling (pcefx?) or something. But I only ever asked if anyone knew what happened to Necromancer.
The good news is that it said that he wasn't banned or anything and there's a link to his musings thread which I couldn't find before by searching or going back through threads lists. He still doesn't show up under sections aa a mod though which is weird.
There's also some references to my forum or something and "correct tgat lying garbage by black tiger and friends". Does Nightwolve think that this is my forum? Maybe someone has made a redirect using my url.
It doesn't make any sense.

The reason I stated his posts were removed is because the day he was banned it was mentioned in discord by others.
As far as I can tell (deciphering his Unibomber-like rambling is a challenge) This,he sent me a private message stating I was conspiring with Arkhan against him and a load of other accusations from what I could decipher in his very long ramblings.All conversations between myself and Arkhan were about HuC and programming....I don't have any Idea where or how he came up with that.But in that message he did state he was on discord watching what others were saying about him(disagreeing with what was happening no doubt) and then targeted those individuals as against him I guess.Anyway PCEFX is dead,and NW killed it.

Well, since I publicly congratulated Nanto when he started PCEFX almost 20 years ago, I may as well similarly offer my condolences now...

When he finally replied about everything on facebooks many of us offered to take over and/or buy the site. No further response was received. I'd pay almost anything to buy PCEFX just to have the pleasure of immediately banning NW. Maybe PCEFX is still collecting enough ad revenue from NW and the 5 people still visiting?

Holy farmer tan. Yeah. I guess I stand corrected. Necro's posts remain? Doesn't matter, I'll never go back. With my recent conversations with Aaron, I don't honestly think PCEFX will ever be the "go to" place for pce chatter anymore, and Aaron seems fine with that. I too got a mini rant from NW, but mine was through FB. It's so weird, but when I saw his bubble pop up on my phone was actually excited to potentially open a line of communication to maybe right this whole sad ship, but it wasn't that. Just a wall of text that I could only get about halfway through. I don't understand any of it. I'm not out to ruin him or the forums, I'm just reacting to what I considered an injustice. The fact that he even brought up the ancient arguments I had with Mike H. is even more sad, I'm not interested in drumming up any ghosts from the past and can't imagine Mike would either. I said some stupid shit, and got called out on it and embarrassed in the end. I've moved on.

As far as I can tell (deciphering his Unibomber-like rambling is a challenge), my mistake of thinking he deleted Necro’s posts is what sent him on his latest bout of madness. I really did think he deleted Necro’s posts, but was wrong about that, apparently. Nevertheless, in his eyes it was a purposeful act of “defamation”...or something. I dunno. Whatever. But Necro was definitely de-modded and banned during one of NW’s fits of rage. It's also possible that he did delete the posts, and then restored them. In one of his initial banning nutjob sprees, he assigned everyone to permaban, and a few days later switched it to a 2 week ban. Despite that fact, he called everyone who said they were permanently banned a "lying liar." So, when he revises things, he rewrites history in his own head, making you a "liar" despite the fact that it was completely true when you checked. It's a possibility.
I am actually kinda jealous. I didn't get any foaming at the mouth rants sent to me. I miss reading his insanity.
