Not one Original Mod left?

[Ghost]

Jan 17th was Defcon's last message, now a new guy no one has heard of with only Global Mod access comes in. Defcon was a site tech just like Hex, why isnt Hex under Admin??? No one but forum mods have posted for 8 days now. And all problems since day one are still basically there. Food for thought. How hard is it for defcon just to say one word "hi"...he may not have time to answer questions but he has time to say "hi"

Yea the last i heard from was a brand new  Mod that wasn't even formally introduced

[Ghost]

not trying to be a stick in the mud or piss anyone off but its been well documented that global mods on the forums dont really have access to the main aspects of the site, at least in sr1....and we all know alot of the mods now were promoted from hero member, it just seems very off, I understand a admin response makes tons of questions be asked as Hex said but it doesnt mean he has to respond to them, if everyone heard a "hi" 100% would at least know admin exists

I change identities often - most back end staff do not have a forum presence and we simply create an account when and where we need one. I can move this account up to administrator status if need be but I am not an administrator on the same level such as DPR2, Defcon and Minx are/were so it is just to help public understanding of where I am in the pecking order. Is Cirrus not an original moderator too?

[indianpilldaddy]

wow!! some real words there.
I absolutely agree that people should back off a bit. Its a saturday, go grab a beer or something. Go out and party! Stop worrying so much and chill!! As I am about to do
Its not really that bad. I for one have faith in the mods and admins. Let them play their part.
There have been announcements and communications by the site runners from time to time. The situation really ain't that bad. Its just a delay! Its not like it won't ever get fixed.
Try to get your mind off it and relax!

Cheers

[chepe18]

I really really really wish people would stop complaining about Mods not showing up or anythign like that.

I've been around since SR 1.0 and I don't know what it is, but there seem to be a shit ton more BABIES in this place.

Its like you all need a nipple to suck on and reassurance to say "it'll be okay".

I feel like, if you guys bitch enough, one day the site admins and devs will just pack this place up.

Appreciate what you have, stop complaining.

The site works great, i've been placing orders and i've even FE'd for some of the most trusted vendors on here.  Everything is coming in.  I've experienced the captcha issues, i'v experienced the negative balances, and i've experienced the disappearing balance.  I've taken the time to figure out the problem and fix it myself.

Captcha issue?  Open a new tab and try to load the page again.  If that doesnt work.  Drag the captcha into a new tab and the proper one should load.  If that doesn't work exit TOR and reopen.

Wishy washy balances?  Go ahead and hit the check for new balances button once or twice.  If that doesn't work, log out, and log back in and then try the check balances link again. 

PS.  Hux, you're appreciated dude.  Coming from an OG SR member who is thankful for what a darknet market has done for me and my financial situation. I appreciate you and everyone else in the background.

[DoctorClu]

Haha dammit Hux. Stop mucking about in the forums. Leave that to us.

[GameOn]

The "brand new mod" isnt a mod, hes a developer who risked his skin coming to these forums to quell all you tinfoil hat wearing idiots. He's exposed himself to stylometry now just to appease you twats.

Would you all REALLY rather Defcon and the lot of them be here licking your asses or would you like them working on the bugs you INCESSANTLY bitch about?

I feel for these guys sometimes its as if theyre damned if they do, damned if they don't with you ungrateful fucking pricks.

THIS IS NOT SAINSBURY'S OR MCDONALD's - this is an ILLEGAL DARKNET MARKETPLACE where these people literaally put their necks out to provide you a fucking service that you obviously want or you wouldnt spend all day on these forums.

Cirrus is an original mod is he not? I don't know if you recall but the rest of them were PINCHED and Synergy still sits in a jail cell like a fucking dog due to the sacrifice he made for you.

Suck it up. MAN UP. I'm so tired of you whining asshats.

CHEERS (Not really.)

Nero.

+1 to you good sir, EVERY noob is being ungrateful for the service we are provided with. SR2.0 is still new and has been pushed out fast for those who appreciate the market, even with its current flaws. EVERYONE just needs to understand these things cant be implemented in just one night, it takes time and for fuck sake, calm your balls and let them work instead of scouring the forums answering your inadequate questions.

[DoctorClu]

Your post essentially boils down to "Mods from SR1 arrested". The site is not compromised. Stop throwing random FUD out there for no reason.

[MarthaQuest]

Thanks to Hux and the unknown others that are making this place go. I know some things go wrong sometimes, but on the whole, it seems to be going well. Well, considering what SR2 is anyway. Please keep up with your efforts. There are many folks cheering you on, whether you hear it or not.

MQ

[Ghost]

I never said its compromised or creating FUD, just nice to hear from a non-forum mod. And Im not a noob just on a different account.  SR2 lost most of its staff, others quit, and others just plain decided not to step up to what they said they'd do, You say Im creating FUD, but all the mods on here seem to say is things are being worked on, everything is ok....thats what the old mods on sr1 said too, until shit hit the fan and they all admitted they had no fucking clue what happened and do not have any access to the site itself. All I asked was a simple message from whoever our leader is. I think most SR would like the assurance as well. The more new GM's come in and the less known Admins disappear, the more this feels out of place

+1, couldn't have said it better myself.

That being said, given the ridiculous amount of money buyers invest into SR on any given day, and given the fact that mods are being paid by the commissions from these investments, I feel like some accountability from Admin in the form of simple communication on the forums is not a whole lot to ask for and should be expected, especially when there still seem to be so many issues with the Road. Obviously this is not eBay, but its also not exactly a nonprofit organization either...

Often times, we speak on their behalf. This way, Defcon, Hux, etc...can continue working on the market while we update the public. Just because it isn't coming directly from Defcon, doesn't mean they aren't his words.

Thanks for the clarification Clu.

Minx

Minx???

Was this a slip?

[Ghost]

I have respect for all mods on here, and I know you prolly do stay in contact with admin, but you also have to see the chain of recent events of mods and admin disappearing and new reappearing, its nice to know the ones we are trusting our money and our investments in,

we've lost:

synergy
DPR1
DPR2
Sarge(retired)
Libertas
Inigo

people we've never heard of that popped up:

Defcon
Hex
Minx?

and Hero members promoted:

Doctorclu
chemcat
V
Stealth

and the only Mod left standing from the original:

Cirrus

thats alot of changes my friends. and all in 3 months, so when over a week goes by without any word from someone who normally posts 1-2 times a day it raises red flags. This is in no way FUD, its caution

[Stealth]

I do not know in what dream world you live my friend but Defcon has never posted 1-2 times per day as an average.

[1ntoTh1nA1r]

Ummm it really doesn't matter what the names of the Mods are or if new ones appear. These are pseudonyms and it is just a favor to us that many of the admins keep their same names for extended periods of time. We are on a drug forum... can you trust a new admin any less than you could the first admin you saw when you registered on the forums? Besides karma points, you just have to trust in the discretion of the SR team to appoint qualified admins.

[DoctorClu]

Defcon was endorsed by DPR long prior to his departure. He is not "Never heard of". Hux (not Hex) has been around since the beginning and as he is one of the devs, there is a good reason you have never heard of him.

All of us who have been recently promoted have been around for quite awhile. Some of us under new names. Some of us were part of the contingency plan put in place by DPR. So my question to you is: What exactly are you cautioning people of? I don't see how any of what you are saying makes any sense.

[dipset]

 I still wish that DPR 'contingency plan' included emergency BTC withdrawals for accounts, and BTC stuck in escrow. I lost about five grand when the site was seized which is peanuts in the long run (and nothing compared to the hits vendors keep taking) but trust was lost, and some of us are still a bit sour about the large sums of money lost in the last incarnation of SR. And the current, persistent problems with the new site (along with recent busts) don't yet exactly instill great confidence in trusting SR with a ton of money.

well said!

don't trust, idolize, finger yourself for anyone on here, mod, king sr2, or hero poster. just use or dont use the service based on risk reward of how safe you think you can be doing so.

[Ghost]

just cautioning to stay alert, you guys always preach that right? everyone said dpr2 wasnt compromised, then we never heard from him again....same with synergy

[Cirrus]

just cautioning to stay alert, you guys always preach that right? everyone said dpr2 wasnt compromised, then we never heard from him again....same with synergy

No, it's good to stay observant and to call things out if it doesn't smell right.  Good practice especially now. 

[flux101]

I think that to some extent that everyone must have and always will have an underlying suspicion about this site, and that's for obvious reasons (arrests of multiple mods, DPR1,2, etc.)

The suspicion can range from "Are there players involved who are working with or for law enforcement?" to "Are the best interests of the community at heart, or is profit?"

These feelings are natural given the circumstances we've seen play out.

All that buyers can do is research and find a trusted vendor. This fundamental process is what causes a TON of issues we see plague the forums - complaints, bitching, I was scammed, etc. Most of that goes away when you do research and find a trusted vendor and don't FE.

Can't speak about vendors tho, seems like they're in a pretty shit situation with their money being held up due to lack of AF.

[Ghost]

I never meant disrespect to any mods, just voicing a concern thanks cirrus

Bring out the tin foil because we're really gonna need it in this thread.

I bet the rest of you stalker type bloody weird saps will still be here tomorrow when I log in to catch up on all the whining.

Have some respect these men and women are risking their liberty for this and all you can do is complain. I mean...my woman does not moan so much as you lot when we're fucking. Perhaps Im doing something wrong???

Hahahahaha!!  funny stuff. I don't know you but I love you for that

really dont know who to count on now !!!

The fact that theres not one original left should make us appreciate the ones we have now. Like we all keep saying there risking there liberty for you to be able to come on here and bitch. For you to be able to get drugs to your doorstep. Your convenience.
