About Moderation

I don’t really want an invite-only gated Internet community. If you must have such a space, I’d prefer a segregated subforum to a separate one.

So, how would you deal with abusive behavior in an open community that anyone can join?

Maximal bothering of Wookie is not a goal of mine, so why should I think about that? Since you bothered to ask, intellectually deficient. What are your thoughts on my answer?

ok, “read people’s PMs and made them public”.

You should recognise that politics forums are a different beast to other forums.

Passions run high and you have to expect some heated arguments. Mods will have their own political opinions and will find it somewhere between hard and impossible to put their political and personal allegiances aside when moderating posts. They are only human after all. Well, most of them are.

I’ve already posted many times how I think moderation on an open site should be an onerous duty shared by the entire forum, possibly in exchange for voting rights, not a privilege to be abused.

I hate to be the one who once again breaks up this riveting discussion of who wronged who 18 months ago but I’m going to increase the throttle on this thread because I’m trying to ignore this place for a bit.

Please resist the urge to start new threads to argue with one another or move the arguments to other threads on the site.

EDIT: Reduced back to a 1 week ban since this allegedly wasn’t AQ who made the fake jman account.

Is “shot someone” doing a lot of work in “he got a gun and shot someone”?


Snow dick would have caught a ban a month ago. The progress we are making!

Hi everyone, could we all try to give it a break for a couple of days?

Peace

Making Christmas Eve threats could be seen as being a shit in here and not what you were voted in for. Did you not see the post immediately preceding yours? Chill.

Peace

A+. Can we make this the rule for the rest of the year?

Happy holidays, everyone.

Since you can’t read you’re silenced until tomorrow. I prob should have given you the full 2 weeks, but I’m in a good mood

Bless all Unstuckers and their families.

Anyone who wants to post in this thread before Dec 26 should be required to attach a video of themselves doing the Elaine dance.

For more real-world examples: Elaine Dance Contest during Seinfeld Night at the Brooklyn Cyclones Game

I of course am exempt from this requirement for this single post due to supplying the instructions.

Good luck and good night.

I’m an advocate of a Christmas Truce a la World War 1. Play some soccer, share some cigarettes and all that today.

Then go right back to shelling and mustard gas and blind charges into machine gun nests tomorrow?

Boxing day truce and then on the 27th the bloodletting begins, or did the Germans not respect that sacred tradition?!
