yeah, i totally agree.. no one can complain if everyone is being treated in the same way

Exactly, applying the rules fairly and impartially.

I think you were trying to do that but I think you made a mistake.
Horans post is clearly a joke and he deliberately did not make it look like he was impersonating EI staff he uses amended instead of last edited by and he uses EI stasi which is clearly a joke.

Nicegirls on the other hand copied the format of an edit exactly and even gave a reason.

For me it is 2 completely different things

[carlos marvado]

but you werent fair to alechoran carlos




alec uses the term amended which the eistaff never do, and he said stasi which are the secret police. theres no impersonation here carlos

Grant it......I've seen better attempts at impersonation then Alec's, which leads me to think that he at least was trying to do a funny piss take. Still his alter-ego will have real street cred now.

When you get to be a Community Moderator, you're welcome to do things differently then me...............hold on, you were a Community Moderator once upon a time.

I agree, to me it looks like a pisstake of a rule break on alechoran's part, but the moderators have to make a ruling and stick with it.

Pity though, a lot of fuss for nothing crazy

[blankmannn]

why do they have to stick with it? why, if when they see it was a misreading that prompted the unban can they not reverse it?

I don't know.....I was assuming

They won't change their mind not because they can't but more because they think it is weakness to admit they made a mistake. Carlos has all but admitted that horan should not have been banned. Real strenght is recognizing a mistake and correcting it not standing over a bad decision.

none of the moderators have ever overturned a banning before???

[Karin Kiss]

Come on, bring Alec back guys ... what he did wasn't the worst

In the 6 months or so I have been on EI I think I have seen it happen once.
