I came back to SWS? I know I went inactive and passed leadership onto other members, but I've been very active lately and I want to start designing again. I think we should also change everything back to normal because this site's layout and design is rather repulsive, if you ask me. What's with the matrix background and scumbag lane and all that stuff?
Anyways, I miss you guys and I want to rejoin. Considering I was one of two founding members, do you think I could get my status back as an admin? If not, I understand perfectly well.
Thanks guys, Thundy

This is just one man's opinion, so don't take this too seriously. This is absolutely fine by me. I'd like to see you back. We've got into this rotation system where each member is admin for one month. It works pretty well, and I'm against scrapping it. You're entitled to your own opinion, but you'll have to persuade us. I personally am open to any change you suggest, if you can back it up with good reasons and the majority of members agree. By the way, a good tip. Go to your profile and change the background/skin to "Light".

I'm happy to see you return, I've always seen you as a member despite you inactivity (if that's a word). I don't agree with you that we should change back to a single theme though, the varying themes and admin changes is one of the major things that keep this forum alive. Constant changes and forummer interactivity keeps people interested, and it's actually one of the reasons the team became active again after the downfall with your, Scud's and Bryce's departures. We switch admins every month, in order to keep ourselves entertained with new ideas, humour and interactivity. There are often stories included that are based around the theme (although this month's is one oen of the more odd ones I suppose). I think you'll like it once you get into it, you should give it a try before remaking it

I'm sorry, I didn't know that there was a theme section. Then I remembered that I made the Wind one, which I like. There are a lot, holy crap! Hmm. That's interesting. Sounds like an ok idea to me. Thanks guys. This studio's activity is nice, and it's good to be back. EDIT: Moderator maybe? I still have my mod powers but I'm curious if you guys want me to keep them, and maybe just mod one forum?

I don't mind one way or the other. You won't have much moderating to do, mostly tidying things up.
Don't try the Eyeburner Special!
If you want to catch up on the team, check out the two team-only forums. That's where most discussion takes place.

You could be a global mod, you are the original admin after all. But unless it's your admin month you shouldn't change things made up by the current admin

By all means, stay here Thunder. You're a nice guy. Oh, and I recommend that you try the communism skin.

Almost all of the skins made for themes are appalling. The admins always start off by inflicting mass agony through colour schemes, knowing full well everyone will switch to one of the normal ones straightaway. This even applies to my glorious People's Republic of Stormwind background.

Indeed, you could be the global mod... or if put in another words, your name will be the one we mention when someone asks who our leader really is. Now that you're returning back to designing once again, any chance for us to see Corenthian War finished?

I'm honored. Perhaps. I think the best chance of it being finished would be if I restarted the second scn, which isn't that far along anyway. I can look it up, though. I'm sure that's true, I can only imagine. But I made the Wind one to be the default for these forums so I think you guys should try it.

I've tried it, and sorry, but my heart lies with the Light theme.

Welcome back, Thunder. By the way, I hope you guys ignore me in the rotating admin -system, and if you don't, please do so. Not really into moderating/admining anything.

Fight the unwashed hordes Thuddy, you founded this team and now you're back so you can take the delegated powers back, do it! I've come back, in way, as my status within the team is ambiguous.

The powers are permanently delegated. It's not like we have a hierarchy or ranks or anything like that, so status isn't a big issue.

I don't want to be a jerk to the team I left dangling in front of hungry sharks. Wait, we're not using our real names? Then where are they coming from?

The admin is a power unto himself.

Welcome home Thundy. The themes are great I think, help keep a bit of enthusiasm and interest going.
