This has nothing todo with my enquiry about the adult forum. If you vote, I want a reason. If you dont give me a reason I will be annoyed. And if someone says, 'well what difference does it make, its not going to happen' then I have other information. So yea. I personally want him back, because we need him. Im not saying the current leadership is doing a bad job, but we seriously need him. What he did/can do for us is crazy. Only he can bring us back to what we once were. kthxbai --------------------    | ||

 IRC Nickname: Tnuac Group: Emeritus Posts: 1806 Member No.: 51 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 58 | The thing is, is the question 'do you want eugene back' or 'do you think eugene would want to come back', or both? Even though I'd love to have him back, as probably anyone would, it appears he's well past this stage now, and has cut the ties for good. Its almost selfish to say 'yes, he ought to come back'. All you can do is continue treating him with respect, and let him know the door's always open. -------------------- ~Aetas: carpe diem quam minimum credula postero~ "Seize the day and place no trust in tomorrow"  | ||

But yea, He wants to come back, but doesn't want to unless he is wanted. -------------------- | ||

But if this is going to start a conspiracy to under rule Abs, that's not what i want. Abs is awesome  But if Gene wants to come back, i'd never say no.

 IRC Nickname: [JC] Group: Emeritus Posts: 3320 Member No.: 23 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 147 | This issue is much more complex than a 'simple yes or no' because at the end of the day when asking whether we want Eugene back there is a million issues behind that statement which you're not considering.... I have talked to Eugene in the last week, and I know EXACTLY what it would take for him to return, and no, this poll is not going to do that even if it is a step in the right direction. What I would look at before deciding whether I would want him back is what role he should be trying to take within WG. We have allready seen the negative impact that giving Eugene 'Retired Founder' and hence powers that people felt he shouldnt have been using, which got used. I dont think that Eugene would want to return to the same position, but then again would he want to return to a position without Admin/Moderation powers? again I dont think that is likely. I nulled my vote, because yes, I would like Eugene back, but he allready knows that and tbh for me there is a million other issues to consider if he was to come back. --------------------  Old awards wat Most Mature & Most Honourable Most Dedicated|IRC Freak|Best Emeritus Placeholder lolz | ||

 IRC Nickname: Mickey Group: Emeritus Posts: 5305 Member No.: 48 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 282 | I want him back. He concentrated on Community first and Warring second. It's the oposite way without him. He brought Humour as well as knowledge to WG and made it a better place to be in. Sure he has an ego the size of the earth (and he admited that btw) and he is a bit power hungry. I led a clan for 8 months and I have to say there is a part of me that wants that power back. Plus if he comes back he might put an end to all of this nonsence of topics being locked for no reason. --------------------    | ||

Maybe it's because he was here for so long , i dunno... Would he want to come back to leadership.. that's the question... He left and got everything sorted, a new leader was promoted.... I dunno... --------------------    | ||

 IRC Nickname: Darth Group: Ex-Member Posts: 4601 Member No.: 838 Joined: June 12, 2008 Total Events Attended: 558 | I say we need him back because I honestly think he was the backbone of WG. Ever since he left notice how everyone else is leaving? We've gone into this "slump" because whether people know it or not, he was one of the most (if not THE most) important member of WG. --------------------  | ||

| IRC Nickname: Group: Guests Posts: Member No.: 0 Joined: January 1, 1970 Total Events Attended: 1 | I think I say for all old school members when I say WG is not the same without Eugene. Eugene made WG complete. OF COURSE HE IS WANTED, this is his clan his ideas made this that is why we are here now. I am disappointed in those who do not want him back. In case you haven't noticed we have been in "down time" for a while now and the only way we are coming back up with inspiration is by bringing back Eugene or every sudden does well as members. Eugene is the heart and soul of WG itself, without a heart you can only last so long on the machine. ~Ali -------------------- | ||

But, like Evil said, there are several issues behind this. Consider for one, what rank would he get IF he did return? -------------------- | ||

 IRC Nickname: Trolls trolling trolls trolling trolls Group: Banned Posts: 2956 Member No.: 422 Joined: April 4, 2008 Total Events Attended: 130 | At this difficult time for the community I believe yes it would be a great thing for Eugene to return. Obviously it wouldn't be sensible for it to be so simple as 'Welcome back, Eugene. Here's the ACP Powers, MOD Powers, and ROOT Powers  Go crazy'. Instead, it would be sensible to give him the capabilities to do things under moderation. I.e. his moderation actions to be moderated.Obviously it must not be forgotten that Eugene is what might be called a 'specialist' in the instance of WG. He was one of the Creators. He understands better than any of us how WG's community works etc. As i have posted in other discussions, I believe that it has and always will be Eugene's call whether or not he comes back. Up to him, not us. ~Mugger84 -------------------- Mugger84 Member Of WG Since 4th April 2008. WG Raid Leader Since 20th June 2008. WG Council Since 20th November 2008.
