G_B_ Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 If I'd taken the OP I wouldn't have shared with the rival OP.. The same is expected of you... Point noted.
Sidhoni Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 Weren't all you guys repeatedly saying its not a big deal, just a match thread then what is the problem now? It wasn't as if GB had won fair and square anyway. Anyways lets not talk about that again.
G_B_ Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 The thread actually belonged to the MI fans and not just you. You've missed this point overall, and that is the reason MTC is pissed. #observation I disagree on this. Just like any leader, many decisions are unilateral. Hence the point of a mascot. You elect a government every 4/5 years. There is not a public vote every week on the steps a democratic entity takes. Especially when time is of the essence. Now if there was time on my hands, i would have obviously consulted. Now that i know the feeling among members I assure you it wont happen again. I mention this again, i am ready to step down if people feel I should.

It wasn't as if GB had won fair and square anyway. Anyways lets not talk about that again. I disagree there. I won the vote fair and square. The only reason i let you edit the opening post cause you had made your thread and I felt bad that your work would be wasted. Thats all. If you had not made your thread i would not have shared it with you.

Being new here, you've missed out on some of the details. A mascot can hardly take unilateral decisions (which can turn out to be sensitive), without consulting at least some of the core members. And there was enough time to be honest. Exchanging 3-4 PMs with 3-4 members is a matter of a few minutes. Anyway, I have nothing to do with MI, so I'm not bothered to discuss it anymore.
Sachin=GOD Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 guys chill... G_B says he will consult you all before next match - if you believe him then support him, if you don't believe him then as he says, ask him to step down and appoint a new mascot. No need for a huge controversy.

I was away at work on site (called at the last minute). I did not have time even for those. I even missed the match that day. Plus a mascot hands out match thread for home matches. That is unilateral action MI fans or not. Ie he/she decides something on his/her own. Asterix dada i believe is in the UK. I dont think he was online at 8:30am. No point sending a PM when i would not be there to respond to it. Same for M2C. I dont think any other Mumbai fans were online or active in this thread at that time.

No need for a huge controversy. let people discuss it. atleast i will learn.I have no issues. I am calm.
asterix Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 let people discuss it. atleast i will learn.I have no issues. I am calm. Everything is fine. You are doing well. Just remember, never share OPs with slimy characters as Evident in his posts above... There's a reason why many members hate him...

There's a reason why many members hate him...[/quote'] point noted. As i said, in retrospect i make a mistake. Did not know the groundswell of feeling. I thought it was just trolling. Hence i consulted this time around for the match v RR. Apologizes to any mumbai fan who feels let down. It wont happen again (by me).

I dont think any other Mumbai fans were online or active in this thread at that time. Normally, a mascot notes down applications from his members and hands out threads accordingly. It is more of co-ordination, and not about unilateral decisions. Also, handing out threads according to applications is not really a 'sensitive' issue.
G_B_ Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 @saurav1 so what happens when 3-4 people make an application for the same match thread. How does the mascot resolve the conflict? By poll. (just asking as i am new to this just a fan was the original mumbai mascot)
Sidhoni Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 I disagree there. I won the vote fair and square. The only reason i let you edit the opening post cause you had made your thread and I felt bad that your work would be wasted. Thats all. If you had not made your thread i would not have shared it with you. But was the poll fair and square? Obviously not. Anyway as I said its better not to talk about that since mods we will be bothering mods by doing that.

Sachin=GOD Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 But was the poll fair and square? Obviously not. Anyway as I said its better not to talk about that since mods we will be bothering mods by doing that. both sides paid ppl to vote and in the end G_B won :dontknow:
yoda Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 LOL@fight over match threads and how a joint thread may have caused the team to lose QF1. :hahaha:
G_B_ Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 both sides paid ppl to vote and in the end G_B won :dontknow: why do i get a feeling you are going to do the same for the finals thread :hysterical: Sidhoni is never going to win a poll for the opening thread.
Sachin=GOD Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 why do i get a feeling you are going to do the same for the finals thread :hysterical: Sidhoni is never going to win a poll for the opening thread. I've been betting heavily to earn more in order to "buy" the rights to another threads :weights:
