About Moderation (old original thread)

Just as a PSA for those here, Keeed banned me because he got pissed that I caught him sharing moderator flags with the new Council of Captains pm thread. My quick ban without a chance to give a “citation” in his “cite or ban” was immediately after I pointed this out to him and @riverman after he Keeed was caught lying about it in a flagged pm thread, and had nothing to do with the post he claimed to ban me before. One of the Captains pm’d me about the flag prior to me commenting or saying anything regarding the flag, to throw some shade about the fact that I had made the flag. Figured it was worth the rest of the community knowing about this. Anywho, peace out.

that’s kind of a big revelation.

I didn’t lie about anything. I banned jman for exactly what I said I banned him for.

sure sure, not even going to deny the accusation?

this is the exchange jman is referring to:

what accusation? jman accused me of sharing a flag with Johnny, I said that I mentioned to Johnny that jman accused me of unhiding Johnny’s post because I thought that was funny.

it’s a fucking mystery keeed.

Right, what’s the accusation exactly? I told Johnny that jman thinks I unhid Johnny’s post? Yes, I did that? I told jman I did that? What am I lying about?

lol that makes sense. But then when jman said I talked to you about the flag, I was like, well, I sort of did because I PMed you saying, lol jman thinks I unhid your post? It was never hidden, right? So yeah, I owned up to talking to you about that, because I did.

OK this is the timeline as far as I can see.

  1. jman reported Johnny’s post
  2. Riverman agreed with the post but didn’t hide it, generating a message to Johnny about his problematic post
  3. Johnny choose the PM the poster option on this and wrote a reply to jman, who then thinks that Johnny knows he reported the post because I told Johnny.
  4. jman replies in the report post PM thread, asking if Riverman hid the post and if Senor Keed unhid it
  5. I see this and laugh, then PM Johnny saying that jman thinks I unhid your post, lol, it was never hidden, right?
  6. Then Jman accuses me of sharing that he reported the post, which I didn’t, but I did PM Johnny telling him that jman accused me of unhiding the post and confirming that it was never hidden.

OK, everyone gather in the parlor room and let’s detective this shit out.

Is there any rule that says that mods shouldn’t reveal who flagged which posts? Should there be? Or should it be fair game for mods to reveal who is being ridiculous about flagging posts?

They probably shouldn’t in general, but I think here it’s not an issue.

After flagging the post, Jman decided to troll Keeed in the PM by claiming that Keeed had unhidden the post. I think once you start trolling mods in PMs, you lose any expectation that the mod has to keep those PMs private.

Accusing Keeed of unhiding a post done by another mod isn’t trolling, it’s literally something he has already done and lied about

Is it better to have boldly predicted and lost, than to never have errrrr

Now that I’m back from my temp ban for trolling, I want to complement the mods for a great job diffusing things yesterday. In particular, I want to thank @anon10396289 for banning me. Well done sir! I’m also giving myself right at this very moment a firm pat on the back for taking it so well! Kudos all around.
