He was an admin

Wow, what a shock. I always have seen Hito as the right hand man of Evilore, well Hito and Jim. But then when Jim was demoded i thought Hitokage became second in command. This is a huge news. BTW Hitokage was an administrator.
Why would you do that?

I might have my NeoGAF history wrong, but I remember reading that Hitokage was an admin of Gaming-Age Forums before the 2004 version of the forums that EviLore started. So that means that he's stepping down from the duties he's had for about 10 years, or maybe more.

While i could see Evilore demodding Mumei, there´s no way in hell that Hitokage would be demodded. It must have been his choice to do it. I know that Hitokage liked that Mumei became a mod, and probably did not like the direction that Evilore has taken gaf into.
No, just the Facebook page.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
There comes a time in every moderator's life when he finally must moderate himself. Hands in the badge, sizeable payout, and thirty years of moderation immunity posting. We all knew this when we signed up. Not exactly long term planners. Have to close the loop.

Seeing SmokyDave in red letters will immediately give off an ominous vibe.
In two months, you'll see threads where someone says something stupid and a smarter person will be all like "don't say that, SmokyDave WILL KILL YOU MAN"

RIP Hito. You were always one of the coolest mods. 
SmokyDave is appeased by big boobs though, so it'll be easy to placate him.

I'm taking your job buddy
It's probably more like a japanese dev stepping down due to 'health reasons'

Hito wasn't a mod in the first place.

I throw my hat into the mod ring. Electing me will get you all the bowls of Fruity Pebbles you can eat, bottomless baskets of bacon, and 1 ticket for a FREE hug from Gabe Newell

Mumei refuses to answer the reason for why he no longer is a mod. And now this. I wonder if the two are related. I can't imagine EviLore to be happy about these changes.

Well they probably get suggestions from the other mods on who to tag and what it should say.
Why would you do that?
Member
Yup. Though back then, Dragona did it, too.

I think Stump should get a promotion to admin. It just makes sense.

GAF is not secretly owned by Viacom, right? D:

Ugh whatever you know what I mean.
"So now we're losing good red-named members?
Is that better?
Until we know the real reason, just blame Wilbury.
Nothing banworthy gets said in there anyway.

You're right, I'd not have said anything if you weren't so down on Mumei.
It's cool though. I can see why many would think he was too harsh.
I can't be arsed to find it but I'm sure EviLore posted something soon after Mumei ceased being a mod in which he said Mumei was "good people" and implied that there wasn't any bad blood or serious dramah going on.

I don't wanna know the ins and outs, but a bit of transparency would be nice though. A (great) mod and a long-serving admin both step down and people are getting the banhammer just for asking the question? This is a forum not North Korea. Information wants to be free, yo.
Wait. What are you talking about?
HEYYYY!!! That's a half truth!
There wass drama with both, that's for sure.
There would be a farewell retirement threads otherwise if all was well and good.
I'm sure the moderation doesn't want to deal with a big thread with people potentially taking sides. They discussed the issues themselves already.
I'm not in the loop, just assumptions.

Godspeed Hito!
