... This doesn't work people. All you can do is wait for Hawk to sign in and change your membership rights after you send him PMs or what not.

And a quick check shows that Hawk, has NOT been online for over a month (well, one month and one day). No one is going to be getting lemon access anytime soon.

Per his profile, Hawk has not been logged in since January 27th.

Hello. I just noticed, you guys..
My member status is still normal.
Also, I just went into the Lemon subforum and read "Ranma the Anxious Overburdened Tentacle Demon".
:)
I suspect maybe Hawk just changed the properties of those subforums. Or perhaps my account glitched in a helpful way :)
If it's the former, it really makes a lot of sense; Hawk obviously is here virtually never, and 'perverted member' is really kind of a tautology here (well, just like everywhere really.. but here it is especially true that perversion is just standard*). In this case..
*bows in thanks to Hawk*


* does that mean it's no longer perversion? logic looooooop....

Hawk was on MSN earlier. He changed the way lemon access is granted... in that...

EVERYONE now has it.

So people can stop bitching about that. Though they won't be 'perverted' member. But whatever.

Hmmm... to be honest, I'm of mixed feelings on that, and I'm not certain opening it up is a great thing.

Per stats... We had approximately 3240 perverted members (that is a lot of perverts). Now, this act opens it up for some 5350+ more members.

Oh well... not my problem.

He could have just granted some moderative powers to a few people and then let them handle lemon access. It would have solved the problme in at least a manner that doesnt remind me of nanoha blasting shit. A yes the word is eloqentley I beleive. IT just seems that such a solution doesn't really fix the issue that lemon access did in the beigginning which while in technicality lemon acess could have been granted to annyone regardless of age it would at least seem like it was meant for only those who were mature. *sighs* I don't even get what I'm trying to say anymore.

Yeah. Well the problem still remains, Hawk is a busy guy. And a guy that doesn't exactly take fondly to having anyone else with moderator powers. After all, if the moderator he chooses turns out to be a bastard, the forum would go downhill in an entirely different route.

Not that he himself has done well in that field given how little he's been on the forum. Still, there is a reason why he choose not to give anyone else mod powers.

And I'm not sure if he could give another person with 'just grant lemon access' powers. I don't know how this type of forum works, so I don't know what the mechanisms are like.

Honestly, it isn't that big a deal, since, iirc, he gave lemon access to anyone who asked.

That too.

It wasn't like he cared who got lemon access. If they asked, they got it. No questions asked.

Well... I never worked with the Invision software directly either. However, my understanding was GH and the other individuals that have their own subsections are moderators of those sections, though I may be wrong on that.

If true though, then at least in theory, somone could have been given powers over the lemon subsection only. Uncertain if that would work, since administration over a subsection does not automatically imply they have access rights to the status portion of member profiles, which is global.

It is of course a moot point, as has been stated, Hawk decided he wants no such powers being given out to others or having someone act as mod in his steed.

Its not like Hawk is too busy for fanfiction lately.

If you check his ffnet profile, he has a bunch of stories added onto his favorites list that were published after 1/27, which prior to today was the last day he had logged in to the forums.


For whatever reason, he just doesn't come here anymore. Or, at least he doesn't come here anymore and log onto his 'Hawk' account.

Or it could be that he doesn't love us any more.

This is much more likely.

Besides, reading fanfiction is sometimes fun, dealing with the shit you would have to as a mod, not fun at all.

Or he's too busy preparing a mass-ban to bother with such insignificant things as granting lemon access.

I am hopeful it is such a endeavor.

Agreed. Even if it seems like I'm a jackass for hoping that.

While I am hopeful... it is extremely doubtful, since it would go against Hawks expressed views in the past.

Hawk would at least give the people that are rule breakers a chance. But, as much as a lot of people like to deny it, there are a lot of people that deserve that one chance, and probably blow it. <_<

And yeah, Hawk might have 'time' to do stuff (i.e. he doesn't work 24/7), but what would you rather do if you're Hawk?

Read Fanfiction?

Play World of Warcraft?

Deal with the shit on TFF.

Answer should be obvious.

What is sad is that if people can't access the lemon's section, they can't post their lemon stories either.

I hope I'm not involved in this mass ban... But I think it's unlikely it will happen.

If it does happen, sucks for those who get the banhammer.
