Just wondering why the Screenshot of the Day hasn't changed for a couple of weeks. Is it because WC is busy working on a major site update?

.... Not as a pack but as faithful and longtime WC members and "shooters" who like the "SSOTD" and feel so honored when we make it i.e. by recent posts from Dale " the Thug Jr. " and 

others - if it could be saved and shown more attention - we would be very gratefull - thank you WC for your on going efforts ..

... I'm still reading the post Cplair mentioned in reply #26 - and I still don't know who the rat pack is, I'm on page 3 so far!!! But I've learned that our posts have the same name and that one simple question raised alot a'ruckus. And so far, no answer yet - at least for 2007. Back to reading...

Comments #67, #76 and #80 is when the Rat Pack came into the fray Ms Karen.

This thing went on for 5 pages.

Ruckus is an understatement.

It's exactly why I implore you to just keep the faith.

 

Smart Bombs and Nukes and worse being unloaded on the pack is still all to Vivid in our memories !never again will we make such a stand for "shooters" rights !

A fact indeed Az.  However, may I also remind you that after the Nuclear Holocaust, it is Insects and Rats who will inherit what remains of the planet?

You know as I look at your article on comment #35 and thinking what the Pack was really about, we really weren't the bad guys here.

Considering that most folks at that time were kinda tredging through a lifeless site like they were visiting a cemetery.

Did the Pack over-do it?  To the guys that manage and run the site, yes we did go over-board with the FUN thing.

What some failed to see was the enormous amount of the World Class Skinners, Artists and Designers who were honorary Rat Pack members.  They ran with us because they wanted to have some FUN for a change too.  I refuse to mention these fantastic people's names, but when the Pack was ultimately insulted, so were they.

We all learned, grew up some and went on.  Unfortunately, quite a few avid long time members / subscribers / supporters walked away from here and never came back because of this too.  

I know this because I was the one who was getting all the F*** this place e-mails from them.

The FUN never stopped here for me or Az though, because of the folks who come together with a common interest, just like this one.

You all are the reason why I have faith here.

Okay, now I know who the Rat Pack was (is?), sounds like all of you had great fun with it!

I started up this post cause I was just wondering why the SSTD wasn't changing, and I was hoping to find out that it was because staff is busy with the upcoming changes and would maybe honour us again with another sneak peak.

But I see now that this subject has been a sore point in the past. Didn't mean to dredge up bad vibes, but with all the positive suggestions that were posted in cplair's post -  https://forums.wincustomize.com/150797/page/5/#2110346, I'm surprised that a year later, nothing's changed.

Featuring skins and screenshots is currently down.  These are things that will most likely not be addressed as resources are now in full swing for the new WC.

Well, I'm glad that you now understand that all of this has transpired for the very same reason MsKaren.

You were warned very early that this topic could possibly stir mixed emotions, don't you agree?

But, you had the right to ask what you did and also the right to see why this is historically touchy in the first place.

I mean to me it was like "hey, can I move in next door to you and sell dope to your kids?"  That's how I was feeling.

And it's also why now I can honestly look you in the eye, as you ask the same thing I asked now a few years ago, and ask for you to please just be patient.

And I hate to throw this at you like this Karen, but if you can't trust anyone else in this entire site, you know you can trust me.

Believe me, these guys do listen to us.  They will indeed get to it, just not as fast as we may want sometimes.

Thanks for the update ID!

Have you guys decided on a target date yet, or is that none of our business?

Thanks for the answer Island Dog, much appreciated.  Can't wait to see what changes you have in store for us!!!

Tooting our own horn again Dale?

Ah Dale, what would we do without you, dear man!

on Mar 23, 2009

Okay, you guys are talking way above my head. Who's the rat pack - staff?

Nah, not staff... just a bunch of lunatic screen shotters with a penchant for fun and the outrageous.

Great bunch of people, of which AzDude and cp were the ringleaders and chief instigators of mishchief.

So guys (cp, Az) is there any talk of a reunion.. and if not, why isn't there?  The house of WC has been quiet of late and could use a fun injection.

You know why Starkers!

The Staff hated us and prefer that we not disrupt the site's harmonious flow with our alleged wild antics.

Period!

As for a reunion, we never disbanded! (hehe)
