Notice. - Ice-9 - 9th April 2005
I have contacted SiteTurn Enterprises in regards to this site, since they are the ones who host it, and I have requested that they delete the site within 48 hours, and under the threat of legal action, they acquiesed. A query into the United States Copyright Office will show that the name Tendo City and its related properties belong to me, and I will not have my copyrights infringed. I do not care that the concept is unimportant to me, it is merely the idea that I am not making money on something I own.
I suggest finding a new home, after all, what's a home when you have each other, right? I believe that is what you all told me long ago. Make sure you change the name this time, Mr. Usher, lest you again find yourself with a subpoena.
Yours,
Jeffrey Yuwono
(sorry I'm late!)

New member? Uh, no. But when that rare new one does show up, here's the image (for link copying).

You just need to know the address. Easy enough, if you have FTP access... otherwise, find a thread with the image in it and copy the link. :)

Happy belated April Fool's! Next time though it would help if you wrote ice-9's name right.
Notice. - A Black Falcon - 10th April 2005
This would work at a forum where half of the members weren't able to check the IP.
Notice. - Smoke - 10th April 2005
Could always use a proxy to mask your IP. Even then this wouldn't work though. It's the same joke from 2003.

Ryan, I think.

I am the only non-admin of the old members? I guess you guys don't want the power to get to my head like it did when I was Shigeru.
Notice. - A Black Falcon - 10th April 2005
Your title probably explains why you're not an admin. You haven't been around much in quite some time...
You're not the ONLY old member to not be an admin, though. SJ, for instance, is just a mod...
Notice. - EdenMaster - 10th April 2005
Then again, we don't want to give complete control over the forums to someone working for a rival Nintendo site, do we? ;)

Quote:I'M not even a mod.
Yeah, not everyone's an admin, or even a mod... it just seems like it.
Notice. - Great Rumbler - 10th April 2005
Deanna and ASM aren't mods either. You shold feel lucky, Fittisize, you're one a of select few.
Notice. - EdenMaster - 10th April 2005
Well to be fair, DeAnna's only been here a few months and ASM...well do I really need to elaborate on him?
Notice. - Geno - 10th April 2005
I'm not a mod either. Not that it's a big deal or anything. The admins and mods here are godlike entities who always use their powers for the ultimate benefit of Tendo City. Praise be to them!
Notice. - A Black Falcon - 10th April 2005
Geno wants to be a mod. :)
All it takes to become an admin (mods are pointless here...) is another admin deciding to add you as one. It happens... rarely... mainly because since Weltall owns the place he probably should have the power over that. But DJ and I gave Smoke admin status a little while back... but he said he used to be one. :) (On that argument, perhaps DMiller could argue he should be a mod too...)

I stopped working at N-Philes not long after E3 of last year. None of the original founders of N-Philes are still around as many left around the same time I did and the place has kind of gone down the shitter. I barely visit the forums there anymore. I don't really care about not having any admin or mod powers here, I was just trying to be funny. I am more than okay with you guys controlling our lives.
Notice. - A Black Falcon - 10th April 2005
Yeah, I thought that you'd left N-Philes some time ago... as for here, it's not like becoming a mod means anything as far as 'administrating' is concerned. It's just nice because of stuff like being able to access the FTP (though that's a seperate privilidge that Weltall gives some people, I think they're all admins), the admin-only forum(s), being able to read deleted posts and post in closed threads (not that threads get closed very often here)... stuff like that.
Notice. - Great Rumbler - 10th April 2005
Most of the time the mods and admins here don't even do anything. Sometimes we edit people posts and then laugh about it.
Notice. - EdenMaster - 10th April 2005
Aside from that civil war we had a couple months ago, none of us really use our powers at all.
Notice. - Great Rumbler - 10th April 2005
Well, I did use my admin powers a few days ago to change TC's title. Other than that, yeah, I don't use my powers very often.
Notice. - A Black Falcon - 10th April 2005
I don't use them very often (and I never edit other people's posts), but it's nice to be able to use them... stuff like FTP access (to find things, like the TC Cow image...) and reading deleted posts is nice.
Notice. - Great Rumbler - 10th April 2005
Quote:and reading deleted posts is nice
Ah yes, there's always that little perk. Silly people, "delete completely" is there for a reason!
Notice. - A Black Falcon - 10th April 2005
I don't know... do they get that option?
Notice. - Great Rumbler - 10th April 2005
Hmm...maybe they don't. That might explain why all their deleted posts are still visible. Oh well! *there's no escape from Big Brother! Bwahahaha!*

I remember awhile ago, a new upstart nintendo site called KidTendo... I made them a generous offer to partner with them, and they steadfastly ignored me.
Tendo City still lives. KidTendo's long gone.
Teach them to ignore me.
This doesn't really have a whole lot to do with anything, only that we may be small, but we see bigger, prettier sites of the same theme rise and fall all around us constantly, yet we stay healthy every day. Go us!

DJ edited my post, further proving that admin power usage is only for fun here. :)

Thing is, we don't use webpage content to survive. We barely even have a website. Our main pages most recent news item is from October of 03 promising that the real site will be up soon. :D We're more of a group of like-minded friends than a Nintendo site. In that respect, I can easily see why we've lasted where others have failed. Look how many server crashes and other such internet catastrophes we've all pulled through. All so we can laugh at this smiley:
I remember KidTendo, you had a bunch of admins in a big chatroom regarding the possible merger. After that chat, I never heard a thing about KidTendo again until just now :D. It's tough to link up with other sites when, besides our bizarre forum activity, we really have nothing to offer.
Notice. - OB1 - 10th April 2005
At least I rebuild the search index (which involves going into the admin panel and clicking on a button) when the site is screwed up. No one else (aside from Ryan, I assume) ever does that.
Notice. - A Black Falcon - 10th April 2005
I don't remember how. :)
KidTendo? Don't remember it, if I ever heard about it at all... I assume it's from before I was an admin.

Yeah, pretty much... though a more regular source of new members would be nice (not too many, though... too many new members act stupid to want lots of them... :)).

That's not the first time either but I don't want to search through all of your posts looking for the other times I did it. When I see a mistake like that I fix it.

Hey geoboy, how much more from that board do you have? I have almost-complete archives from this site dating back over five years, but I don't have anything from the ezboard and the ikonboard. I'll gladly take anything you have (and someday I promise I'll get around to making an archive... I know I've been promising for four years, but there ARE several thousand pages to format)

He was running one of those other Nintendo sites I mentioned, one that we outlasted because of our natural superiority (I.E, we're not British)
