Memorable Moment #5: The fallout of SRP quitting
 
Memorable moment number five is one of the more recent memories in 6SW history.  SPR76 was a valued member of 6SW and an active member of our E-Fed (SWF).  When the position for new E-Staff opened up, SRP wasn't interested, at least not at first.  However, he did apply because "no one else did".  SRP was a good staff member in theory. He knew the problems of SWF and aimed to fix them. However, his biggest problem was that he couldn't accept criticism.  By his own admittance, he would read criticism once, reply to it, and write any further criticism off.  While a lot of ideas were genuinely good ideas, they all needed a little bit of tweaking to get the bugs out.  Members continually made suggestions (and complaints) to help get these bugs out, but as previously stated, SRP would have none of it. His way was the correct way, the only correct way, and anyone that thought otherwise were too foolish to be worthy of his time. It was this failure to accept criticism that led to SRP's downfall.  After getting a lot of negative feedback and refusing to do anything about it, SRP decided the best way to handle it was to simply go away. With one PM to the administrator (that'd be me), SRP resigned his position of E-Staff and abruptly left the forum (although, he still lurks and is probably even reading this particular post).

SRP's quitting would have been fine at any other time. However, Luke was on vacation/holiday at the time and SWF had a PPV to write that particular day. This left ATC to write the entire PPV by himself.  It also led to a lot of speculation as to who the new E-Staff member would be. The speculation led to a flame war between several members, mainly due to the fact that a few members couldn't accept that they simply aren't staff material.

One good did come out of SRP quitting though. WWEWhoseLine48 did manage to become the only double staff in 6SW history when he accepted the position of E-Staff and agreed to stay on as moderator until his replacement could be found.  This lead to a fairly big shake-up in staff as we 3 people affected all at once. SRP resigned, WWEWhoseline was moved around, and DL was added to the staff.

Has anyone tried pming SRP, cause if he visits here and there like people have said. He has to see those annoying pm boxes. And he didn't even leave us a courtesy letter, or a great speech for his retirement.

I got along with SRP, he just didn't handle the e-staff position well. I wouldn't mind seeing him come back and post again...although he'd probably get ragged so bad he'd leave again. :lol:

6SW needs more posters that stick around. That is what we need to become a superior forum. :-/

I'd have no problems with him returning as a regular member (although, you know that's just a bunch of drama/flame waiting to happen), but I wouldn't offer him a staff position again.

It's a joke Purps. You have got to have a sense of humor around me. :P

And don't worry, I'm sure you will become the next mod. :tu:
