Message: <blockquote data-quote="Bad Paper" data-source="post: 3399650" data-attributes="member: 24674">Might I point out that ENWorld is not a popularly governed body or similar organization that owes anything to its users?I ran a BBS for a couple of years, and sysopped a couple others, and I'm all for pointing out that you exist at the whim of the mods.  And I'm OK with that, because the quality of the mods' behavior dictates the quality of the BBS (err...website, OK, this isn't WWIVNet or something...).I thought the fact that Hyp closed <a href="http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=190323" target="_blank">the thread</a> was an unfortunate coincidence, because it implied exactly the motivation that Delta brought up.  Also, because Hyp was the only guy on my side, and yeah, it does smack of elitism -- on the surface.  But Hyp is the most even-handed, short-winded (while wearing the Mod hat), and experienced of the Mods (judging by post-count, anyway), and his previous behavior highlights that what happened in that thread was merely an unfortunate coincidence.Or a happy one, if you're the one who started that thread, and watched in horror as it disintegrated, though not quite as badly as <a href="http://enworld.org/showthread.php?t=145108" target="_blank">this one did</a>.</blockquote>
