Your "firstly" paragraph (too lazy to use quotes):

It's not you're overemphasizing, Albert, you're just way too concerned over the specific topic you're trying to make. For example, let's use High Rise. Sure, it's a move with credits not given in the trailer, and that is completely wrong. Rick selling the move like his own also does not seem right. You pointed these out. You also pointed out the origins of the move: BtS and BS. You're also very strong on the subject because High Rise was "taken" from someone you know, ideally Cris. It's not overemphasis, you're just caring and really need to make your point. Also, you only figured what Rick's move was from the trailer (I hope), in that case, there was no way you could tell the differences. You are just concerned about giving credit when it is due. It is not a crime, Albert, and there is nothing against any of it. If anything, you spoke out before anyone I know, and that is not a crime, but rather trying to give justice.

Second Paragraph:

I believe that happens because people do not realize how big a deal the alerts are to the starters of the thread. We end up going offtrack because if it is a big topic (like JK, Theory11, etc) we tend to actually keep off topic sometimes because of the length of the whole discussion. That, and the fact that there are new people to the forums (mostly defenders for that specific thread) that try to defend and end up going off topic as well. There is an easy fix for that; we require someone to simply tell them to stay on topic.

Third Paragraph:

There is absolutely nothing that I wish to debate with you about that. That is correct, but we, as the moderators, should not be too harsh as to tell the "offenders" that their big mouth is starting to go... even bigger.

The Classic Pass Contest:

Well, the Classic Pass in essence is a great idea. People do have a problem with other people like Mark and you not participating. They feel bad because of the fact that the more renowned people of the forums are not taking part in a contest that was meant for everybody. This may be a feeling the participants get about "social class". Though this is not true, they may feel that the higher ups do not need to participate because "obviously, they have a better Pass than us already, why do they need to participate?!" I am not trying to say that this in anyway is you, but that may be what people are thinking about.

To conclude, all this was only my opinion. If anyone somehow was offended by this, as usual, be sure to speak up. I do not want anyone to get offended or hurt because of my words. Respond to Albert's thread guys, it is a great chance to voice your opinion, and everyone would love to hear it!
