Well his suggestion was that my action wasn't valid because of personal bias, hence when he referred the issue over to another moderator it instantly suggests that I'm the moderator he's referring to as incompetent.Belisar wrote:Hmm is it me or is saying that someone may hold a personal grudge not the same as calling them incompetent. We all get blinkered from time to time by all sorts of things and that can make it hard to make an impartial decsision (on purpose or unknowingly).
I also have to agree in that one mod taking the warnings away and another adding them back (plus an extra point) seems inconsistent to me. Perhaps you need to have a chat and make a uniform decision (when I say uniform I do not mean anything to do with any sort of military uniform such as a certain prince once wore btw).
I do not know the details of the warnings and therefore have no ideas about the rights and wrongs but to the independant observer this is not exactly helping dispel any uncertainty over moderation.
Ooh in typing this I ld'd from the game and cannot get back in - hope you mods have not got some super duper new powers
I agree, once a warning is given it should only be taken back by the same mod.Beli wrote:I also have to agree in that one mod taking the warnings away and another adding them back (plus an extra point) seems inconsistent to me.

Stop that, its childish and we both know you are not a child. Cant you see that by typing things like that you really arent making things easier on us?Gitt wrote:Xest feel free to ban me... you are an imbecile
Loth has done nothing but post negative on every thread possible. If there was something bad to be said he said it. So I wasnt wrong in taking it person. It is my right to take it personal and to feel offended by it. Not you not anyone should tell me what to and what not to take offensive.Cryn wrote: It's pretty clear that Xest doesn't intend any massively insulting when he used the term how he did. But that's equally true of Loth using the term Nazi, which is exactly my point. The mods were quite happy to leave Xest to use a potentially offensive term because they viewed him sympathetically and therefore assumed he meant nothing bad. With Loth they assumed the worst possible meaning. Where's the consistency and fairness in that?
It is a witchhunt, cos we have done nothing but trying to defend ourself while we dont even have to.Cryn wrote: It's not a witchhunt against the mods. I realise you feel protective because Satyn is a mod, but don't start hurling accusations at me just because I have some honest criticisms. The moderation style of this forum has changed drastically recently and THAT is what is causing the comments.

Well Peat, dunno how u read things, but i can't find the post back where i was hurling accusations at u. I was just writing down MY OWN opinion, if u say u got the right, why wouldn't i then?? I've always respected u in game m8 and we always been good friends, so i don't know why i would just flame u here. I never did and never will do, so don't try to put words in my mouth i didn't. The fact that Satyn is a mod has nothing to do with me, i still got my own opinion. If she wants to be one, good for her, but for me that doesn't change anything. It's not like i'm immune to warnings now or anything, cause tbh i don't care if i would be warned.Cryn wrote:You walk into my local pub and call someone a homosexual, about 80% of them would hand you your teeth in a glass. And it's not even because people think you really think they are gay, or even because people think being gay is bad, it's the INTENDED insult behind it.
