Why mods are a bad idea..

[Doozer]

Lads come on now try and keep the slagging to a minimum

[Lucy Chambers]

At the end of the day mods are posters.
We are not employed by E-I we do volunteer work so we still reserve the right to post.
Now back on topic, if a thread goes off topic we move it to teh soap opera, this has been the case for a while now
What is teh problem?

Westside, in particular. Nannying, second.

[bigladdub]

Dont worry, BLD, there were no mods posting. Just Westside, the man of the moment.

I had better go and read the thread so... Will reserve further judgement until then, but on the basis of what you just said, I am not optimistic....

So you're advocating censorship?

Where did i say i'm advocating censorship?

[Doozer]

Lucy if yourself and Westie want to have a slagging match take it in to the soap opera

Problem number one.

Never said that was the problem. The problem is the way you wade in threatening to lock the thread because you don't like the way it's going. The thread was a bit of fun, yes Westie ruined it by having yet another of his "oh everybody hates me" tantrums.

Another problem is you handing out an infraction because I called you a cunt, yet other non mods have been called cunts plenty of times without getting an infraction. Fair enough I pushed it and probably deserved it but it was clearly a joke and you just couldn't take it. It's another golden example of inconsistent and personalised moderation that community mods were always going to cause.

Back on topic enough for you?

[Lucy Chambers]

Really. Actually Doozer, I wanted to go my own merry way, I was insulted by a tadpole. I ate said tadpole. Should have been the end, but the little frog keeps crocking.

Plenty for me baby.

The off topic post should be removed

Censorship is the suppression of speech or other communication which may be considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive, or inconvenient to the general body of people as determined by a government, media outlet, or other controlling body

Clear enough for you?

I told you before you called me a cunt that teh next person who stepped out of line would get one
You just had to have your say. So you got an infraction thats it.
If anyone else did it they would have gotten the same treatment
