@purpletinker Every pony is mad at her, looks like everyone forgot what she have dont to the whole fandon, just like bronycon and RDN itself. I think we sould at least show some her gratitude. http://ur1.ca/8kcjn

@mushi yeah.... that awkward moment when it now looks like i posted the first...
-
@mushi I personally think we should rename this place @purpletinker network for one day on RDN's birthday (if it lasts until then).
-
@purplephish20 XD
-
@ecmc1093 that would be cool!
-
@ecmc1093 Naah. I didn't start it. I just paid the bills for a while. Rename it Cabal Network for a day.
-
@mushi Thanks for the cute pic! Yeah, some angry ex-staffers have been slamming me on 4chan. They're upset because I wouldn't give them financial control over the con. They walked out, and they've been spreading nasty rumours about me ever since, twisting and distorting everything I've ever done to make me look like a monster. I put up a fairly comprehensive response to the most central lines of BS they're spreading about me at http://purpletinker.deviantart.com/journal/Leaving-BronyCon-behind-288978187 .

@brony001 I know, right?
-

@mrdragon Thankyew! There's not much to say, really. Haters are hatin'. Funniest part is when they talk like I made it rich off BronyCon. Damn, how I wish I did.
-
@purpletinker I know that much already, hell I was around when Cabal talked to me and told me what had happened and several other things. So I know what it's been like.
-
@purpletinker But you supported it with your funding for longer than he did, if my memory serves me correctly. And there's Bronycon too, the creation of which was a huge milestone for the fandom and a great success. It's not just about RDN. Any true Brony would know you are more than worthy of respect.
-
@ecmc1093 Awww. Thanks. I think I blushed a bit. Honestly? The best part of having stepped down from BronyCon is that now I can ENJOY BronyCon! SO looking forward to it.
-
@purpletinker So can we ask anything about RDN now? Mainly, are we actually stable? :3
-
@mrdragon I'm working with Cabal on finding a suitable new admin, and possibly also a suitable new host (sometimes, suitable admins have convenient access to suitable hosts ;) ). Nothing will happen to RBDN. I wouldn't let it happen.
-
@purpletinker I know there was a few of us who would be willing to donate to help RDN in the meantime, if funding is an issue.
-
@purpletinker Well, I don't know if he messaged you about it. But myself and @ceruleanspark we're willing to take it on, it would be hosted on my dedicated box, and him keeping it updated and running on the sys admin way. If that had been accepted. Also, a donate button was suggested.
-
@purpletinker Hopefully the new admin will upgrade StatusNet. This version has so many holes..
-
@forestrain Don't worry about funding. As long as I'm paying (i.e.: until the changeover), everything will be fine. AFTER the changeover, perhaps the new host will want moneys. Talk to him or her once the changeover occurs. :)
-
@mrdragon Sent your message to Cabal for consideration, and thanks! :>
-
@purpletinker We as a community will gladly help the new admin money wise and make sure their job won't be a total hell.
-
@purpletinker If it helps. - Intel Core2 Duo E4500 - 3GB Memory - 160GB 7200rpm Hard Disk - CentOS 5.x x64 - cPanel Inc cPanel - 5 TB Bandwidth the specifications for you to look over.
-
@minti Upgrading StatusNet would be a pain. I'd made various minor changes to the codebase that would have to be patched back in. Things like adding links to the menu at the top right, requiring email validation, things like that.
-
@purpletinker no problem, purple! i just thought i should say something cool. I'm glad you liked ^^
-
@purpletinker Mmm. Still would be worth a try, this version is ridiculous when it comes to loopholes. I can name at least two easily executed malicious ones right off the bat.. xD
-
@minti mmm, maybe I will make the upgrade myself as a last present to the site before the changeover. And, while I'm at it, roll my patches into an easy-to-apply diff file....
-
@purpletinker You would have no idea how much we would love you even more.. please tell us though. You'll still come on and say hi?
-
@purpletinker Heh, that would be great. :p
-
@purpletinker that... would be fantastic!
-
@mrdragon F'course. I'm not leaving the site as a user, just as an admin.
-
@purpletinker So we may see you more a little now you will be a little.. or a lot less stressed
-
@purplephish20 @minti @mrdragon CHALLENGE ACCEPTED
