Look, when I handed out a ban and someone filed a complaint, I showed up to answer for it. Just because some mods don't bother doing that doesn't mean everyone is like that, I guess. 🙂
Whatever, just more blah blah blah bullshit...
So you gave me a warning because I started a thread that you thought belonged somewhere else—which is just your take, I guess, and might not even be right. Then some guy jumps in to call me an idiot, and I ended up calling him out on his ego. Honestly, if we were in real life, someone like Elon Musk would've kicked him out of the building already. But then you hit me with another warning too... which, fine, fair enough, I can't really complain about that part.
If you actually had any clue how to moderate, you'd be penalizing the guy starting the fire instead of the one throwing gas on it. I guess.
I guess you're just some big-shot moderator. You just drop all this deep philosophy and nonsense just to stroke your own ego and act like you're so perfect, but honestly, it’s all just empty talk.
Honestly, the easiest thing to do is just kill the thread, delete it, and toss the OP 30 points for breaking subforum rules. And I guess the more you do that, the worse of a mod you are.
Once you actually get that last sentence, maybe you could finally step up and act like a real moderator. But I guess for you, any user who just writes a few lines in an intro is basically a criminal that needs to be slapped with a ban. You’re just another one of those washed-up figures here, probably struggling with some self-perception issues and trying to make up for it by throwing power around where it isn't even needed.
My buddy says the easiest way to rat someone out is just to go to the store and buy them a loaf of bread. I guess. Maybe.
Yeah, so I actually went ahead and asked for a permanent ban, but nobody even bothered to reply to that thread. Not one person. Nobody even asked why, either. Honestly, someone could've at least jumped in and called me an idiot for complaining, but nothing. Guess I'm just talking to myself.
Nothing to see here... just nothing.
Whenever someone actually has a legitimate grievance, I guess all the mods just gang up to protect their own. Maybe they're just looking out for their buddies or whatever.
It’s a clear example, like when we all got screwed by those late fines back in the day.
You want links for that? I guess. Maybe.
I guess Late is still moderating LJES, which is honestly such a joke. It's embarrassing that the mods and admins just left her there after everything, and honestly, the owner should take some responsibility for how this place is run, even if he isn't around much.
Maybe there just aren't any decent mods left, I guess. Like, maybe all the good ones who actually knew how to handle things are burnt out, so now they're just pushing whatever works just to keep this place from turning into a total dumpster fire.
A mod who only knows how to delete a post where someone’s being a total jerk to a parent and hand out a ban, but doesn't have a clue about anything else they should actually be doing? That's like, maybe 10% of a real moderator. Just some amateur digging through channels without any idea where things are headed or how the whole system even works.
Look, just my two cents... stop selling everyone a pipe dream. Either shut up and do your job like you always have, or actually change how you handle things and then show us the results. Maybe talk about what you've changed and let the community see if it actually works.
Hey.
