That's right - dormant threads from two, three and four years ago have suddenly been deleted for no good reason. Fair enough if they'd been locked for no further posts, but that's three years of effort from both me and you down the drain.

For FOUR YEARS there's been no major problems with the Razzies, but now it seems they're the biggest burden ever, and I'll be damned if I'm wasting any more of my time on a forum game that's clearly not going to see the light of day past December.

So, given this and the drama over the opt-out list, this year's ceremony is now cancelled - sorry to the majority of you who were looking forward to them.

I don't care anymore, the point is they shouldn't have been removed in the first place

Omg! I hope the opt-out drama you're referring to isn't Novo's text to me? It was just a joke :sad:

Fair enough, I would be, but to blame us is out of order. All we did was answer your question.

If you follw my suggestion and ask admin if they can be restored, they may do it. It's worth asking before getting in a rage and cancelling everything.

Again I'll say that when you're not aware exactly who's responsible you'll speak in general about the whole staff, because you know it's got to be one of them. At that point I wasn't aware, and to be fair, your explanation stated that "They were deleted by admin and mods", which itself is a generalisation.

Obviously I'm now well aware who deleted them.




It's not about getting them back, it's about them being deleted in the first place.

I don't see any reason to put effort in to a game (and Shaun and Dezzy know exactly how much effort I went to this year) if moderators are going to make up the rules behind my back, and if the results are clearly inevitably going to end up deleted (I haven't even mentioned the 2011 ceremony which hasn't been seen since the day it took place).

It's just a waste of time, and I'm not going to waste any more of my time.

Please stop blaming the mods. Admin made the decison. I've been a host, i know how much effort goes into games, but you need to take this up with admin.

If anything it's the normal everyday threads here that cause the most drama. Arguments break out in ones about the weather or puppies. It seems a shame to single out The Razzies.

So sorry, Matt. I thought it was all going to be a bit of a laugh and treated light-heartedly by the majority... but it seems not. Scuppered before it starts.
