Lol in a thread full of melodrama this one is outstanding.
Because there was an actual RFC (approved by over 90% of the voters) that specifically talks about the process for resolving flags. And an interpretation of the rule in a way that doesnāt allow a mod to resolve the flag but allows that same mod to ban a user for the same report seems wrong, imo.
Anyway, like I said before, Iām probably too invested in this dumb little rule b/c I proposed it, so if yāall just wanna squad up and play Calvinball up in here, carry on
I hope youāll stick around for a bit.

Can I get someone who doesnāt have strong feelings on either side of this to give me a brief summary of wtf youāre all up in arms about?
Itās not just this. Keeds actions since he became a mods had been obvious bad faith. I donāt have the time or commitment to put it all on paper right now. But itās my honest opinion.
Edit: feel free to disagree or think Iām on some stupid fucking side, but Iām not.
I was skeptical about modding Keeed but voted for it anyway, and I have actually thought heās been doing a good job overall. I also think youāve done a good job in your time as a mod on this site. A few notes from what I can see.
-
Keeed was probably a bit out of line with the ban he issued.
-
Iām all for a good mod wars from time to time, as anyone will know from my time being a mod at 2+2. However, I never reversed another modās ban, even if I disagreed with it. And I think itās a mistake to do so without discussion.
-
Keeed probably didnāt react the best to the ban being reversed either.
A lot of the issues on this site, including this circumstance, seem to come from an inability to admit when weāre wrong or may have become overheated in arguing a topic. It is often helpful to step away for a few minutes to cool off.
This is also a part of why I like rotating mods, because it gives a similar cooling off period to having to deal with issues on a forum.
Thatās why you were bragging with the cool kids club (AKA the other side) about all the bans you were going to hand out to me and others (wink, wink) before you were even officially modded. So ya, Iāll disagree.
Jbro - replying to you at all on anything related to moderation is a futile effort. Everyone on this god damn forums understands your stance. Thanks for continuing to contribute.
zara, please donāt quit over Keed being a shitty mod. Letās try to find productive ways to demod him instead.
A sharp and level-headed post from Riverman DAO
Tilted is in the Cool Kids Club now? I didnāt vote to induct him last time we had a Jellicle Ball.
You donāt remember? Here, Iāll quote every post Tilted made in his mod nomination thread to refresh your memory:
Yāall better watch your asses!!
Who wants to tell Trolly?
For me, a person who has issued a total of, lets see here, 0 bans I believe
It was in between when elected but before officially modded.
I just went back through the mod actions thread because I hate myself. LOL to any single one of you that complains about mods and their actions. Iāve made 10 suspensions since October to the following: Jbro/Marty/Jal/Bob/Alex/Formula
Maybe I missed one but itās just comedy at this point.
People are math, just more complicated.
