Oh, hey.
I've never seen it, never experienced it, never really been shown anything to act like its there.

Maybe it's because I never break the rues on here, but I really don't get it. I've never seen any mods do anything particularly wrong. Only one time have I genuinely disagreed with a decision, and it was one where we all disagreed about the decision (the picture thread where we were having a good time making fun of each other, gatsby made it).

Other then that I just don't get it, and maybe it has to do with the fact I don't read the majority of threads or really delve deep into it. Also not being heavily involved probably plays a factor. But other then that you guys seem to ignore the fact that this shit is much better then b.net and waypoint. You guys seem to blow up over small decisions when a lot of you have been banned for dumb ass reasons on other sites.

The bans I've seen and heard about on this site all had a reasonable side to it. It wasn't something where you could be like I have no idea how this happened, it's usually something that either had it coming or something that was pretty far in the grey.

For all the shit you guys say about the site and how it's run, it really doesn't add up. We're assholes to each other, some a hell of a lot more then others, but your allowed to do that. You don't get banned for banter or even saying some borderline sketchy shit. If you get banned you probably deserved it, if something gets locked it probably is the best choice.

Just how I see things

That's pretty much all there is to it.

Even then I eventually find out about shit, albeit much later, and I very rarely ever go "well that's kinda strange"

I neither fear, nor despise.
I would ban everyone here if I could. Like seriously, do not give me power.
You will so regret it.

Well yeah it's only rarely that a mod does something that's questionable, but it's happened. People just like to throw tantrums.

Kiyo was the only person I legitametly understood why there was so much outrage

Are we talking instances real mod bias? Cause I've seen/heard about some weird theories and other shit out there.

There have been some cases of bias or inconsistency that I've had to clear up or reverse in the past though. It's less of a problem now than it was earlier on in my opinion.

I mean in general, like shady decisions that are clearly more towards certain users, or even overall. Like a mod banning someone for saying something they personally were offended by. Or a mod screwing over another member.

He was a trail mod. Not all of them were going to keep the status.

He can share details if he wants, but I'll fill in anything that he forgot.

Id rather not make him regurgitate it again just for me, less work for everyone

I'm good. I've given my few cents when the topic came up once before.
Don't really feel like rehashing it.

This is not the greatest sig in the world, no. This is just a tribute.
I got banned for five days for doing nothing wrong.

I don't think anyone has been banned over something that a mod has been personally offended by. The first and third have happened though. Kiyo being the example of someone who screwed over another member. The first happening a few times over the course of this websites history, but calling them shady would be outright false.

Ok by personally offended by I mean for something that wasn't against the rules. No Das, you pming people loli porn doesn't count.

As much as I like you, if your talking about the Loli thing you can't really argue it. It's just weird, and it's understandable (not even talking about laws) why anything like it or remotely similar wouldn't be allowed.

Like, it's sort of common sense at that point. Your entitled to like what you like but that doesn't mean it has to be catered, especially when the owner of the site doesn't want it.

I know Kiyo was crazy, and that's the only person in which I understood why everyone lost their shit. But I always see more claims of outright "wrong decisions" made by mods. I'm incredibly non partial to a lot of people on here, especially those I like, and I've found it really hard to really say there has been anything done wrong outside of Kiyo

Just because our states are free doesn't mean that the rest of the world, or even the rest of the United States are free.

Sending unsolicited unspoilered porn to people in general via pm is something that's always been ban worthy though.

I disagree.


And that was the first case of it happening. I didn't see anything in the rules.

Some issues handled behind closed doors are of interest because only the users involved know what happened and staff. The forum as a whole doesn't.

This is what I'm talking about. I genuinely saw nothing wrong with this decision and don't see how it can be construed as incorrect. Not even for any reason outside of logic

It shouldn't have to be...it's common sense

I will say as a mod for only like... what, a month now?

That I've seen a lot of reports are people acting like babbies rather than actual offenses. Of course there are real ones worthy of actually taking action with (to which I've messed up once or twice), but yeah.

Well I'm in the dark when it comes to 95% of that, and I'm happy for that

But would you say you genuinely messed up or that it could have gone both ways (meaning there was logic behind your decision)

As in I'm still learning my way about a few things.
