shadowpilot8 said:About 4 months ago, I handed you a warning, and you didn't say a word. Now you're complaining because you didn't get that same warning the day Klapalo got his, simply because you didn't like what he wrote.

The whole endless back-and-forth is just full of illogical nonsense because of that. Don't you think it's time to drop it?

Well, I stepped up here specifically because I was fascinated by yet another display of your moderation style.
I already gave my full, detailed explanation when the issue actually happened, and I see no reason to repeat myself—especially since you were dodging any real discussion back then.
I have no idea what "illogical nonsense" you're talking about, but I firmly believe there's plenty of sense in discussing how you moderate this board.
Especially if we're sticking to actual arguments and stances rather than trying to be "witty" with cheap little jabs.

...it’s just lovely, isn't it, comparing the work of any moderator
with a thread title like: "Are you illiterate or just slow?"...

I agree that moderators need certain qualities to hold the position in the first place. However, since this is all volunteer work, the owner can't technically force them to act a certain way; they just have to trust that those people have the right traits (which includes being polite enough to answer when asked something). At the end of the day, she answered you (from what I've seen every time you called her out). 🤷
Now you're acting angry because she responded to your question by saying she wasn't obligated to, even though she answered you every single time (not because the owner forced her, but out of basic courtesy to the users)?!
Is it just me, or is that weird? 🤷


I'm not even going to address what you wrote above the bolded sentence, because I've already said more than enough about that topic.
If you get it, you get it. If you don't agree with me, you don't agree with me.

This time, I'll just point you toward reading the questions in my previous posts again, because there are plenty of unanswered questions in there.
They shouldn't be hard to spot, but if they are, that's your problem. I'm not going to list them out here any more than I'm going to list my specific reasons for complaining about the warning, since I've already laid everything out clearly.

with a thread title like: "Are you illiterate or just stupid?"...

Where exactly did I compare the thread title to anyone's moderation style?

Mark Thompson6 said:And when did I ever actually compare the thread title to anyone’s moderation style?

...I even went out of my way to drop a direct link to your own post right underneath mine...
...honestly, if you really want to be oblivious, there's no stopping you at this point...
Mark Thompson6 said:but in my opinion it makes total sense within this specific thread to talk about how you moderate.

Even if you wanted to, there's no way you could miss it.

Look, this whole thing is about how one specific moderator handles things. The title targets her personally, but I never once implied that terms like "illiterate" or "retarded" were being directed at her character.

...give it another read...
...there are actual reasons why we don't just open threads with titles like that,
and there's also a very specific reason why you decided to go after certain moderators right here...

If you had an issue with those reasons, you should have taken it up with The Terminator, who's the one who actually started this thread with that title. Like I already said, that’s why I jumped in.

Besides, even Slackoff already weighed in on her moderation, so I didn't realize my own comments were bothering people as much as they seem to be bothering everyone else.
