@Kerowo, protip going forward, Discourse tried to make it super easy for people such as yourself:
The public time they raised a vote to remove you as mod, or the PM Thread?
If it’s the latter, then I guess yes, considering how you seem to be hitching your wagon to the star of refusing to understand how the PM Thread worked even after it’s been explained to you numerous times.
Wookie is not the problem imo. It’s posters who flip out about not being able to use the c-word and drag the whole forum down to the point where they need to be banned. We’ll obviously never see eye to eye on this.

Ikes and goofy have both been banned so this doesn’t make a lot of sense.
No, before the vote to remove me. And not finding your description of the PM thread as necessarily credible is not the same thing as not understanding or refusing to understand.
everything old is new again
91% no. Funny how another piece of ‘horizontal modding’ is bullshit. Shocker, the same little crew here makes up almost all of the yes votes.

Remember back in Unchaine/pv7/etc wil12345 would think that somebody simply reading for comprehension what he typed and then responding… Constituted a magic mind-reading trick? That was wild.
Suzzer, we now have both a second forum and a dedicated independent subforum, so surely all this Wookie drama is going to stop.

LMAO, you implying I don’t know how the forum works is a great look for a future mod, please condescend to me more.
Maybe you should use your Captains brain and consider that I didn’t think you were responding to me and just used your obtuse post to reiterate my opinion of you being a mod….
I’m not sure that’s accurate. Everyone agreed to stop using it if it was offensive to some people. What was disputed was whether it’s a sexist term or not everywhere in the world as it is in the US, and people didn’t like being told about their own vernacular by people who don’t understand it.
But let’s not go there again.

91% is a pretty good sign that you just need to put up with it or go elsewhere. Or you could just try to burn the place down out of spite.

Stop. Jman was banned yesterday for spreading this disinformation (in conjunction with a personal attack). We don’t need imaginary conflicts on top of the real ones.
I thought Wookie didn’t ban his friends? Continuing to claim that seems like disinformation to me.

Disputed to the point of causing rage. Which is stupid. Just behave like adults and move on.
This proposal doesn’t seem to have community support, as cassette has acknowledged. Maybe it would be best to just leave this thread alone.

Did you not get the link to Sabo’s new Wookie-free forum? I can pm it to you if you’d like.
What? Please quote my constant attacks, nagging, stabbing him in the back or withdraw this comment.

I think both sides would probably agree in hindsight that ideally it would have gone
NAers: That word is deeply offensive because it’s sexist here
Euros: Ok, we’ll stop using it in your presence

Oh, so who was largely vocal about it at the time and actually did coordinate, in the open political sense? I’d say no of course not, don’t forget that, but do assume that things evolve and people who cared more at the time don’t now, and vice versa, and that the people who cared then might have different nuanced concerns now, etc.
Ok, this was my bad, I was unclear. When I said “how the PM Thread worked” I meant understanding that it was more like a rotating group chat. I wasn’t making a statement about the contents. For example, when Sabo started it he thought he was just venting to a half dozen friends about what happened with his banning. I wasn’t even part of that. And he didn’t even want Ked to be added. Then it evolved where Ked wanted people added who would rebut and offer dissent. Point being that it wasn’t a coordinated cabal by any stretch.
