I have been 100% serious ITT. This shit is exhausting and I want it to stop. I’m willing to lobby for a new mod if that settles matters. I don’t know how any of this gets resolved if he won’t even negotiate a replacement mod in good faith. Tell me how this stops.

and? It was in response to the exact conversation that’s been happening here that has been happening elsewhere. I’ve wasted hours of my life on this shit now, I’ve been following the conversation. A few people came in here nitting up the meaning of the word “immediately” saying that no one is asking for this when it’s quite obvious that people are asking for this.
So again, what will it take to stop?
It depends.
If you are asking how I think it could end in a good way is by deciding on a transparent process to mods term limits that isn’t rooted in the notion that the current mods are asked to compromise or have any more say on the matter than the rest of the community.
How I think it will end? Jal will get permabanned, no decision will be made on modding and microbet will leave (and the forum will still be okay, fwiw)

You can keep weaponizing the term bad faith but it’s never going to be true. My posting this was 100% good faith attempt to end the endless arguments about Wookiee modship.
It 100% succeeded. I’m pretty annoyed right now so I am going to not be nice about this but this poll has clearly and finally demonstrated that the community wants wookie as a mod and anyone who disagrees should shut the fuck up about it.
Quit fucking telling me I’m posting in bad faith because you don’t agree with me.

i encourage you to provide input on the selection and approval of associate justices in this thread:
i believe we can craft an independent judiciary which a large majority of the members will support, and input from members at this stage is essential for that.

Just trying to be culturally relevant, not a snipe at anyone or anything.

sorry, the question was more directed at jalfrezi, but I very much agree that’s the way this is going.
It’s a beauty

I know this was your goal. I think it’s a terrible goal and that was the point I succesfully made from post #1. That you are not trying to defuse the situation, you are trying to alienate the sides even more. Combining it with your post on jbro leaving being bad for the community just makes it worse.
It won’t be helpful. Neither will cussing me because I posted exactly what you are going to do.

Just drop it. You’ve made your point repeatedly. You’re not gonna convince anybody else at this point and YOU are just making it worse.
Genius soul read predicting my intention in a thread where I made my intention known from the start.
I’m very impressed.

Me?
I abstained from the poll because it’s poorly worded and liable to incite defensiveness of Wookie’s character even from people who think there shouldn’t be permanent mods.

I’m not trying to ignore anyone. I may have missed one. I was told to stop posting so i’ll attempt to oblige. We can pm if you want, no reason this shouldn’t be civil.

Yuv, Please post as much and as often as you like. My earlier peevish post was a visceral reaction to a post I thought was self-piling-on. But nobody has the right to silence anyone else around here.

This is a fair criticism of the poll and one that confused micro as well. I actually edited it early based on feedback. Perhaps I should have done so again.
For the record
My intention was not to conflate critique of wookie and a desire for mod terms. I’m for mod terms.
I’m also for unlimited discussion of changing the rules in any way the community feels is fair.
My only point in making the poll was to stop the endless sniping at wookie in every single thread that is trying to address rules changes.

OK the most excellent posting being done in the Vegas SB thread has convinced me, I’m putting everyone who voted yes on ignore for 2 weeks and will see if it enhances my forum experience. Will report back!
