those aren’t mutually exclusive, although I don’t think either is really correct.
I’d support chads’ initiative and he should be allowed to do it as he sees fit without interference from other mods.
What happened to RiskyFlush?
He’s ok I believe and still lurking and made a post describing his current state, which you should be able to find.
But with Chads’ work commitments it leaves us somewhat short of active mods and maybe we should seek to appoint another who showed interest recently. The more the merrier, as far as I can see, and I don’t believe a limit on number ever won a vote.
@anon10396289 dropped out after getting voted in - is he still interested?
Is @otatop still interested in standing for election as a mod?
Yeah I hope he’s doing well.
10 mins later I copy pasta his post as a response to his, get the banhammer for ‘trolling’ and even though I flagged the above earlier post, my copy pasted post flagged and removed…
Only inappropriate when posted by certain users it seems.
I’ll take your post as if you’re earnestly posting it, although we both know you aren’t.
You implied that dan was spreading covid by driving to a vaccination site far away. That is a shitty thing to say, and also simply not true. You then responded to my post with that same sentence (this might not be true, but I’m pretty sure) at which point you’re clearly trolling. Ignoring the context of those posts is inappropriate.
And let’s point something else out, the only reason you made that post to dan was that you feel inadequate because he corrected you about something, probably something months ago at this point because he doesn’t deal with your toxicity much anymore.
Crying now about someone calling out your bullying attempt is pathetic. You have potential to be a decent poster about covid, you just have to let some of your ego go. It’s ok to be wrong and/or educated about something.
Shaming people about travelling during covid is a churchill thing. I think he said I should bang my family or something for flying to America to see them during Christmas.
Not really. Plenty of people lambasted suzzer for his CR trip, if you remember.
Maybe you don’t want to remember.
My “BRING FORTH THE REIGN OF KED” post should’ve counted as a vote.
Yes but I don’t think an additional mod is needed.
It’s incredibly easy to spot bad faith complaints when so many relevant details are deliberately and obviously omitted.
KNEEL BEFORE KED
What suzzer did was a bad idea. This was not, and being petty little drama queens is not appropriate.
Lol
If people want to revisit the Keeed for mod debate in earnest, we now have an established process for doing so.
Those responsible are relying on enough of the forum being exactly that (blind) to the game because they can’t be bothered to read the relevant posts before jumping to a conclusion, and those responsible have zero interest in balanced moderation because they won’t ever be held to account for their actions.
That’s why the whole question of Jbro leaving after one particularly egregious example of atrocious modding is never brought up. One respected long-term poster took a stand and called it out for what it was, and got gaslit by them and had to leave. And this is supposed to be the brave new American Left lol.
And then people wonder why the forum doesn’t grow when these people behave like Trumpists.
Describing “having to leave” one of the tabs in your Google Chrome like you were frog marched across the Trail of Tears is a bit much, imo. And this goes for all of the folks that have been “run out of here”.
I’m using the same vernacular that the people who forced him out use to describe previous cases.
The difference between those previous cases and Jbro is that he didn’t start flaming anyone - all he did was dare to disagree with some mods behaviours and accounts of events, and soon found himself being gaslit, which is pretty damn hard for anyone to take.
If people aren’t interested or don’t care, fine, that’s their call - but let’s not start calling things FAKE NEWS.
It is not gaslighting to disagree with someone, lol
