Either give me the option to mute Ninjas, or get your mods in check

And yes, this definitely deserved its own thread. I shouldn't have to be worried about losing sleep every time I come on here, and I especially shouldn't have to worry about harassment from a staff member, of all people. I've reported instances of this many times, but nothing gets done. Shock images and harassment are against the rules, but both are freely propagated by the the worst mod here.

At the very least, let me mute mods who go out of their way to fuck with other users.

While I personally don't have an issue with Kiyo, there really should be a baseline of how a person is supposed to act as a staff member.

Nothing will come of this. I don't know if Kiyo has some sort of dirt on Cheat or something, but he's a little too reluctant to let her go when he was so quick to get rid of Chronic who I think we can agree was a good mod and caused no problems.

Chronic was absent for a while and he got demoted, but he got handed back his rank once his activity picked up.

He's a monitor now.

Nope.

Dear God almighty... What the actual fuck is going on?

Aether · January 16, 2015, 12:37:57 PM

Tbh, I hardly find images like JTK offensive and I don't much understand the irrational fear of them. If it was my board I probably wouldn't even prohibit single instances of them.

But it's true that the staff has decided that shock images are off limits, and that those types of images can considered shock images. I've already brought this issue up to the staff and trying to get them to decide on whether or not we will treat them as shock images.

AngryBrute · January 16, 2015, 12:43:57 PM

Leadership does need to act like leadership. Upholders of the rules do need to act like so, therefore this WILL be taken seriously.

Whilst I'm not going to say anything final over the semantics side as to whether XYZ image should be banned under what rule, Kiyo is to stop posting JTK to get a reaction out of you.

It's inappropriate for a mod to be doing this, regardless of any specific details.

Is it not obvious that SC isn't actually "deathly afraid" of that image and he's just pretending to be to get Kiyo demoted... again?

She's not being demoted, regardless of whether class is pulling one over it's not good conduct for the moderators to be actively trying to wind users up. It's not really setting a good example.

You don't know me very well, then. I nearly had a heart attack when that "Anna" alt invaded B.old. And when did I ever say I wanted Kiyo demoted? I just want her to either stop it, or the ability to mute her. Like I said, I don't want to be scared every time I scroll through my threads.

It's been dealt with and I've promised not to post jtk in your threads or in response to you.

I don't understand how it could be considered not a shock image. It's leagues worse than just pictures of gore. And it's much, much worse than the "harassment" that usually goes on here. If someone calls you a name, you can just ignore it. You can't "ignore" a horror face like that. Unlike other harassment, this actually affects me outside of the site.

But regardless of your interpretation of the shock images section of the rules, thanks for doing something about this specific incident. You're the best.

Yeah, that's the bit I didn't want to specify in my comment/action because it's something of a discussion. For example, gore doesn't bother me in the slightest but that doesn't mean I don't edit it out when it turns up.

I wouldn't say JTK is worse than gore to the average user, but if it affects you badly then yeah that's understandable. Someone using it to get a reaction out of you though, is less of a grey area and more of a problem. Hence the action over that and the discussion over this <.<

If you make yourself a target, people are gonna mess with you.
You should know this, Class.

I don't care. This is beyond hateful words on a screen or some petty shit like that. Every time I see that image, it means a night of paranoia and fear. Usually I just have to stay up until daylight so I can sleep in peace. People get 15% warnings for calling Elegiac or Kinder names. This is beyond names.

Well I think this issue has been resolved.

Adapt.

Ah, well. That's why the mute button is handy, I guess.
