Piratecat is a great moderator. So are the rest of you guys!

[Hypersmurf]

Ooo-kay. Since you unbanned hong, I'll just ban all Austrian posters.

... you know, I really can't argue with that. It strikes me as a very even-handed solution to a tricky problem.

The man has class!

[Crothian]

So, this is what goes on in the Moderator Forum!!!!

 

[Hypersmurf]

This is unacceptable. You can't undermine my authority the way I'm undermining Darkness's...

As long as hong's still banned, I can handle being unacceptable.

Crothian's been headed for a banning for a while now, but as long as the payments kept coming in, I was willing to let it slide. But the excuses he's been giving these last few weeks for non-payment have been getting steadily lamer... I reckon I can support the decision to kick him for a while.

Just look at this! There's no better example for the prevalent bias on these boards!

Hong and Crothian get all the "love", but what about us average guys?

Nothing, not even a "Banned one week" or a gnoming!!!


What a shame!

[Morrus]

Well, I'm banning everyone except Hong. So there!

 

[buzzard]

As one would expect any criticisms are quickly brushed away with a bunch of excuses and then it all lapses back into the mutual admiration society and jokes.

Silly of me to even bother bringing it up. Carry on with the jests.

Banning equals love?? That's a new wrinkle on the old banhammer.

Perhaps a different thread would be in order then. If you have problems you should state them, but sometimes doing so on page three of a not so serious thread is not the best way.

I'm sorry, Buzzard what sort of response would you have liked to see?

Something like this, perhaps?

If we were really biased, Buzzard, there would probably be a half dozen or so folks banned who currently aren't. We try to treat everyone fairly. Ultimately, our goal is to make sure that these boards are a fun place to hang out; if someone is ruining that for other people, they'll be treated in a manner which we think is appropriate.

I'd much rather be on a board that takes personalities and histories and intent into account, instead of a laundry list of rules, so we run the boards that way. Does it work? Well, I really like it this way, and it makes Morrus happy, so we'll keep handling things the way we have been. If you can give me actual examples of bias, I welcome you to drop me an email.

If not that, then, frankly, I'm at a loss as to what you want here.

I'd like a job... can you swing that?
