You are breaking your own rule that you set as a bannable offense for this forum.

You are treating OOT as your own personal little kingdom or island or whatever. Twoplustwo allowed you to be a mod to clean up the forum, and keep things tasteful. Though I don't disagree that the content in some of the banned posters' threads should not be here, as with all other mods, banning should be your last resort. You have other tools at your discretion for cleaning up this place such as the ability to edit, delete, or move unwanted posts. Try using those instead of banning everyone.

Well said. I just want to add one thing: if one or both of the people up for banning have broken rules of OOT for which the punishment is banishment, then they should simply be banned. Why have a vote? It's not like every OOTiot is up to date on the offenses of Jake and ThinMan.

Oh, wait, now I remember: it's just childishness. I can't believe someone gave [censored] power over this forum, and I can't believe he hasn't lost it yet.

Let them both stay.

I agree completely.

This is childish and stupid. [censored], you are a joke. You are one of the worst moderators I've ever seen on any forum I've been a part of. You are the only person that should be leaving OOT, and it isn't close.

[/ QUOTE ]

Many if not most forums I've been on, and I've been on them since the 80s, have had way worse moderators than [censored]. I just quit a forum I liked very much because one was completely out of control, and so were the fawning sycophantic monkeys who had buttkissed their way into his good graces, and another I like has really pretty damn bad moderators too. Enough that it makes me queasy and I figure quitting is inevitable.

Most forums have fairly sickening cliques built up around moderator worship, which the mods reward and are happier than a pig in sh*t in about. To [censored]'s credit, whatever his flaws might be, he doesn't seem to be setting himself up for idolatry. Fearful compliance, maybe. And he isn't throttling discussions that don't suck, as far as I can see.

We'll see what the future brings. I had thought this would be a terrible idea and a total bust, but I think it's turning out better than I would have expected. Suspending my judgment did me good, this time.

Haha this happens often? Spectacular. I wonder if anyone has done a study on the sociology of the internet. We've got a despot with the support of the elite minority, self-serving sycophants, conscientious objectors, outright protestors, and potential martyrs/examples. I don't know if it's more like highschool or Russia. This is getting incredibly funny, I really hope it reaches it's full potential.
