Wow!

Well, this has been an interesting day or two, no? Apparently the "owners" over at Subeta.org feel that if they put their hands over their eyes, things will just go away. They can take away all of the social aspects of the site, and users won't notice that things aren't right.

They're wrong, and don't give users enough credit. The entire time they've been with Subeta, one thing that has been shown over and over is they're lack of understanding in loyalty. They didn't understand how loyal the users would be to me in this situation, and they didn't think that certain staff members would be loyal after all that has happened.

More than anything, they don't understand the trust users have in me, and how long it takes to earn that. I have nothing but your best interests, and that of Subeta, when I think of what to do next. While this is my living, and it's my job, it also means the difference to more than a thousand people daily. They come here before they do other things, they talk to their friends on Subeta, they dress up their avatar, they battle with their pets (sort of o_o). The only way those two over at Subeta.org see users is as giant dollar signs, that can be replaced right when one goes away.

That's why I know, even if it'll be hard to pay the bills this month, or if we have to take out a business loan to pay those bills, you will still be behind me, and the real Subeta. I hope that you don't feel like I treat you like paper bills, that are only here to pad my bank account - because you aren't (or I'd be driving the corvette I want :(!). You are all very, very important and special to me.

Now, right now there are a lot of problems with this situation. While the dictators over at Subeta.org have the domain, that is all they have. We have the staff members, the artists, the writers, the user admins, and the users. We have the community.

They are trying to hold out and create a hostage situation (ie: extortion. Highly illegal :P) in hopes that I'll crumble to all of their (insane) demands.

I hope that you understand that all of this was for the best of Subeta, and for us to more forward.

Haha, we all know Keith is the coolest thing since sliced bread. The original- and only in my eyes- owner of this site that has sprouted into something that people over the internet know about. We all trust you and theres no doubt in that 83

I feel like such a noob. <img src="http://67.225.157.254/images/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" /> I was completely blind to this site all day long and got a bunch of items by a glitch. Hopfully I can be forgiven since I deleted all the items I got like that. <img src="http://67.225.157.254/images/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" /> begs forgiveness

Thank you, Keith. I hope all goes right. And very mature thinking, which always strikes me as much above your age. Thank you and you have all our support! <img src="http://67.225.157.254/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />

i made sure to tell my friend about the change since she kind of gor banned from using the computer for a little bit... i have the fullest faith in you keith (and your amazing staff) that any and all problems will be fixed and may those who stole subeta be eaten by the ravenous bug-bladder beast of tral
To clarify something, this is NOT the work of ANON...

Anon is currently just the mass of users on subeta.org laughing to death and exploiting the glitches til their hearts content. There is no need for them to hack into org atm because it is already so messed up there would be no point.
We should get a new free item: A ";We support keith"; or ";Real Subetians"; T-shirt =D

Way to go keith, I hope everything smooths out

Good luck with all this, Keith. I support you all the way. &lt;3
Good Luck Keith! Go Keith!
Guys please please please for the sake of my sanity pass to your friends the site was not ";hacked"; They already had access to the site and had their own servers. Hackers are soooooo much more intelligent then these idiots. While what they are doing is HIGHLY annoying everything is safe, passwords are safe, accounts are safe, and Keith is taking care of it legally. Hopefully well get the last laugh when they see jail time <img src="http://67.225.157.254/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" /> What they are doing like it mentions in the news is HIGHLY illegal. You notice at the bottom of the page at subeta.org it STILL says copyrighted to Keith Kurson. Well I guess they feel they can take the thousands of art and copyrighted material and claim it as their own and display it as they choose. Well news to them they are gonna end up in a lot of trouble.
I think this might perk my interest in subeta a fare bit more.
Sabotage, kidnapping, thievery, murder... It has all the makings of a absolutely delightful mystery movie.

Keep on rocking keith. We believe in you <img src="http://67.225.157.254/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
This responsibility and maturity is why I will always be a loyal subeta user.
thank you! &lt;3

Yikes! Subeta.org said that these are just rumors, while subeta.ws says that Subeta.org has been seized..or something. What the HELL is going on?! Why are comments blocked from subeta.org? How did they get ahold of the site? Hackage? More importantly, is this the work of Anon?
Go Keith!
I had go out about half an hour ago. I held a piece of paper that said ";Death to Subeta.org! Support the real subeta- www.subeta.ws!"; keheheh.
Just wondering... is this the new <i>permanent</i> subeta site? or is it just temporary till things are worked out? Also, those of who (including me) who was unaware of things and lost money due to the chaos on subeta.org... will we get out money back?

Thanks and Good luck Keith <img src="http://67.225.157.254/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_heart.gif" border="0" />
Evy
We are behind you, Keith. It surely was a difficult decision to make, but highly necessary. I hope you can fix all this very soon, without too many financial troubles. We are here to stay, have no doubt about that! Hang in there.
Keith you are truely awesome We are all behind you. thank you
just one question if i may is it wise to change our passwords whenwe log into here and say we dont log into subeta org for like 2 weeks is that account safe why i ask is my son plays here and he is away for 2 weeks..thank you once again subeta team you are the best and as it was said you care about us the people not money...
";I am here and will fully back up Keith, the staff, and the site. I am here to help anyone who is in need. It will take more than harsh words and the like to drive me away. In other words, my death will be the only thing that keeps me away. My loyalty WILL NOT give way, no matter what the consequences. I am a Subetan, and I shall remain true."; You said it, Azshua! XD
Keith you are truely awesome and do so much for us who are addicted to subeta <img src="http://67.225.157.254/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_wink.gif" border="0" /> Stay strong and good luck with everything. We all love you here and are behind you 1000%.
I think another thing that they have overlooked is the fact that a vast majority of the users still on .org are only staying because of the glitches and exploiting them to the finest. One of my friends was banned after generating 500+mil of fake gold (she was making it just for the fun of it), most likely to try to prove that people are not -causing problems- and that everything is presentable. It is havoc over there...total chaos...

I appreciate what you have done to try to save the users and their belongings. Nothing is being done over on org except for shoving propaganda down their throats or banning them to get them out of the way.
GO Keith!!!
Thank you Keith,I started and I will end with you. Your the BEST.<img src="http://67.225.157.254/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />

Ilu Keith.
Glad to see .ws up and running. <img src="http://67.225.157.254/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
Get some stuff in the cash shop so I can help you out! <img src="http://67.225.157.254/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />
Keith, you have always amazed me because you have been the ONLY site owner that has cared about the users and not the dollar sign. I know you might be sick of me bringing this up, but after a rollback when I lost hundreds of tiles I posted about it on the boards.

YOU contacted ME for details. I gave them to you, and you said you would work on it. An hour or so later, you commented to me that it was fixed.

I was shocked. Literally shocked that you would take the time to fix my tiles. It really meant a lot to me and showed me what was different about subeta.

Those staff members you fired would not have cared if I had lost a million tiles. And would not have worked to bring them back. And definitely would not have taken the time to send me a message that it was fixed.

Your track record speaks for itself. You have always listened to users, taken care of us, given us feedback and given us more details than we probably need. So, I am behind you all the way. Thank you.

Thanks Kieth!
Yes, I`d always know that subeta was a wonderful community! I`d love the wonderful drawn pets and the completely freedom we have to design our spheres here like our Profiles, Forum signatures, shops etc.I`d love that I do not have to fear to loose my account just because I`m talking witch my friends about non-Subeta themes. But know, after you told us, that we are so important for you, I am absolutely sure that this site deserves all the affection I have for it!
I like you all and I hope, everything will come to a good end for you! Good luck!
