Re: subeta staff

Subeta goes down at pretty much random times.
The server goes down alot.
Just keep trying every hour or so.

I'm afraid I don't really know the answer to that question Lis.

Re: subeta staff

The site has been going down often since the first day it opened, it's always got server downtime.
I remember hearing about the staff he started out with all worked for free but I was wondering now that he making so much money, whether he pays some of his staff.

And to Zerza, I also heard about scamming money for himself to buy hair products xD

Re: subeta staff

I've heard a lot of bad things about the site owner, but I've never really confirmed any. :p For all I know, his hair isn't a mohawk. Yet...

As for the staff, I'm pretty sure they work for free. I knew a few artists who used to work for subeta, and I don't remember them saying they were payed... but that might have changed, since I haven't gotten on any popular thick black outline sites (I usually refer to sites by their art... >_>) with subeta artists on them lately. ^^;

Overall, most people just hate subeta -- well, they do if they're willing to rant about it. But there are a lot of people who love it, and since I have a huge love-hate relationship with this site, I'm unable to say much. :p

Re: subeta staff

Keith works slightly for profit it seems... but he's not money hungry in any way. He refuses to put ads on Subeta, only gaining money from donations. The server now costs a great deal it seems...

Alot of the bad rumors on Subeta were started by 4chan, who decided to raid the place after Keith 'stole' longcat. They accused him of harbouring pornographic content on his computers, hacked his GoDaddy account buying 3 playstation 3's (which were £500 pounds each due to not being released yet? Thats a bad amount in english money), spread lots of rumours about him, hacked user accounts using their passes on accs of the same name on other sites meaning not just their subeta accs were hacked but things like myspace and GoDaddy. Its pretty much ruined his reputation.

I've only met very few Subeta haters, Misago, so I'd love to hear your sides on things. I like (used to be love... I'm just growing off playing sites like that.) Subeta personally, and I always like to hear the other sides to things.

Re: subeta staff

Ah, that would definitely account for many rumours.

Actually, it's mostly just the restocking and one incident:

A possibly coincidental occurrence where subeta released a certain feature a few days after another site did.

As for the restocking and items, I am generally unable to keep up with sites where the restocking is sparse, if there is any. ^^

My love-hate relationship actually stemmed from that incident and I was unable to confirm it. c:

Re: subeta staff

*nods* For those who don't know about it... it's pretty hard to find info on. Keith did everything he could to eradicate all info of the incident

Well... I know your feelings on things like that. A while back, they released something which kinda held a bad resemblance to the Kadotery(sp?). The outrage about it was huge, some of the most loyal members showing their fury on the boards. I lost a little respect for Subeta that day... but Keith went on to make it better then the Kadotery XD Changing it so you might win the minion (generated at random) at random times.

The great thing about it was Keith took the complaints HEAD ON. He posted on the board, and reassured alot of the members. It says something about his skills with people, even if the arguers werent quite won over.

Re: subeta staff

All right, I will take that into consideration!

My respect has gone up for the site, mostly because Keith did do something about the complaints. ^^ That is very respectable.

Re: subeta staff

*nods* Same here with that incident. Keith does seem to try his best to please the members which only occationally happens on sites with such a big member base (compared to half of the pet sites out there).

Keith also answers questions asked by members on a Youtube video on things about the site, with more detail and honesty then the Editorial. I think its pretty good really... even now he's kept in regular contact with members (he's now 18 and the site has grown massively).

Re: subeta staff

Ok, I think that if you don't like the sites you could have explained it in a nicer way. Some people may like it and are upset or in my case disturbed by what you said. And if the staff of this site or that site see this I am sure you will be banned. It was not appropriate for some people on this site to see.
