Since you mentioned how those posts were totally out of line—specifically where they called me a slut and labeled WomCat as some low-class hick with shredded underwear—my only real question is whether those posts should have been trashed immediately. And honestly, they really should have been...

Look, I never actually said you were that, dustypilot11, and I certainly wasn't attacking you!
I just truly believe we should let the mods get on with their jobs without interference, because let me tell you, it's a tough gig...
It feels like suddenly everyone is jumping in with random tangents and criticisms that don't even have any basis in reality...

Sandra Martin63 said:I’m really not trying to get dragged into all the little inside jokes and forum drama since I don't spend a ton of time hanging out here, but since I first joined this DiK thread, nobody has ever labeled me as some kind of Offovk or warned me about how I should act, which clearly happens for a reason...

Maybe we could just open up a separate sub-forum specifically for all the bullying and venting so certain people can just blast their frustrations there and let the rest of us users actually chill out in peace?

Maria Johnson said:Here is my take on Wacky.
He's a super discreet moderator, and he always reaches out with a warning before handing out any penalties, trying his best to de-escalate things via private message first.
Personally, I think he's totally fine and a very peaceful moderator, if you know what I mean...

electricnomad3 said:Well, I've got a few thoughts on this. Wacky is actually a fantastic moderator. I haven't had much run-ins with Tyler Vaughn7 yet (and honestly, I'm not looking to!), but Wacky is willing to be flexible sometimes, and then certain people take advantage of that kindness and start crying about him being "mean" the moment he finally has to lay down the law.
And you know those types like swiftgull4 and Bella will probably claim everyone is crazy because they aren't out there instigating fights or insulting people, nor do they even get into arguments themselves... 🙄

I haven't had a single issue with either Wacky or Tyler Vaughn7!
Their moderation style isn't controversial at all in my book. Being a moderator is a tough job, especially when you're actually trying to be a decent human being, and there's always going to be someone who's unhappy with the decisions made.
I just wanted to jump in and show some support for them...
