I don't think John was deserving of the mod preview restriction. It didn't seem like a personal attack to me, just someone stating the facts. All he did was mention how Jeff Threatened the board, which I feel a mod shouldn't make threats like that.

Here are couple examples of attacks:
QUOTE Longest meet ever! September 30th to the 31st! Of what October? Darn, now I AM upset that I don't get to spend the entire month to chum up with you guys! Ohhhhhhhhhhh I bet you meant October 1st. Since there September 31st has never existed. Ever. WTF is this? are you trying to be a smartass? if so...haha, very funny..now, GTFO of my thread. everyone who is coming knew what i meant. Posted by Pressure2 Posted by Jeff himself to akimbo "you're a homo " So these are from 2 mods... who in all honesty need to watch what they say more than a non-mod. so my point is that if you are going to mod preview someone, make sure you are infallible else its hypocritical... |

I didn't give the option of "NO" because as you can see the Mod's can't really put someone on preview becuase they have to watch what they say first before they can have that power Only one who I beleive should have that power is Coomer, cause I have yet to hear anything mean/ rude from anything he has ever posted. And let me add that I have said mean/ rude things to other people. Maybe it was a bad day or I thought it should have been said, but it was wrong of me to be rude/ disrespectful...

Guess that all comes down to maturity then huh? And john is a big highlight reel of maturity? All things considered, if he got himself into this situation... let's assume coomer had his reasons for keeping it this way. -------------------- "It's ok to be naked girl... I'm an artist!"

I would assume John is on mod preview because of some of the posts he makes. Have you read most of the stuff he posts ? 90% of it is either sarcasm or he is just trying to be a jerk to start a fight.
Ryan posted just to be a jerk in the RI thread, no other reason. Do you see something wrong with that ? think of it like the mods are police officers, if you push or taunt a cop, what do you think will happen ? -------------------- |

Hmm, well if you think of it that way, then why are they above the law? They shouldn't be able to bash people or be rude or disrespectful to others because they should be held at a higher standard b/c of the "MOD" appointment. When they are rude/ disrespectful they are being hypocritical and very rude and not deserving of their postion |

you are missing something. Ryan posted and started the insuing posts. It isn't like the 2 mods were talking trash and he got in the crossfire, he was the one who took the first shot.
here is the answer to "if you push or taunt a cop", they will either beat you down or arrest you. The police (9 times out of 10) don't push first, they are here to do a job. -------------------- |

Replying to them only takes you to their level... and if a mod is going to resort to that, then they shouldn't be a mod... and no matter what, a moderator should not call a member a homo (JEFF) or tell someone to GTFO (Manny). they should not retaliate that's immature, and they are supposed to be the mature ones...

NOTHING AT ALL. if you don't make a huge scene out of it, there is nothing they can do. even the police have to respect that everyone is entitled to their own opinion. only god himself can mute my opinions. do you want to be the one who is charged with blasphemy? |

Sometimes in life you need to step to one's level to get your point across. What Ryan did was very childish, he has acted like this for quite sometime now. Traditional moderating methods did not work with him. I tryed something that he would understand. Was it wrong what I did ? Yes. Do I care ? No. Why ? Because at the point in time he deserved it. I can admit my mistakes, some people can't. Thats why they will continue to be in the hot seat. Because they did nothing worng and its all my fault, I'm the bad guy. They are doing it to themselves. If I see something wrong on these boards, I'm going to lock you up for it. This goes for everyone. -------------------- ![]() I will return one day. |

the topic regarding the moderators has been discussed before and Coomer replied to it
QUOTE(Coomer @ Jul 22, 2006 - 11:51 AM) [snapback]459484[/snapback] I'm completely behind my moderators and we feel that locking topics and keeping the site family-friendly is a good thing. There are plenty of other sites with more relaxed rules, and plenty of sites with much stricter rules. We've chosen our rules carefully and we feel that they're appropriate for the site. -------------------- |

guy if you think they shouldn't be mods, them PM Coomer. It was his decision to make them mods. A post like this is an effort to divide the site instead of unite it
this was covered in this post here -------------------- |
