Popple certainly had his moments where he was a great mod... but he's in another place completely.

When he doesn't get what he wants, he spams and causes his own brand of drama... this.

Sorry Popple, just making observations.

I'm not sure you really want what you are asking for.

I really wanted to avoid having to quote a rule book everytime I accuse someone of a crime. "section 5, paragraph 8, thou shalt not cross-post". But if you all insist that we have reached that place where this is a requirement, I will formalize the rules and have them strictly enforced.

I AM STRIKE PROOF

I'm a preferred member. And In all reality that isn't a good thing. We need ALL moderators to Punish ALL Equally.

Have you forgotten of the singed eyebrow, how is it that I A well know spammer of old has NEVER been Jailed When I've done more than my fair share. Mind you There are loose links. Hell I spammed yesterday ( out of protest) And All I got was a Move/Delete..... All I ever get are move/deletes and strike less Locks

Now I know I'm on good terms with the moderation team, and I value a few friendships between them, But Certain people need to worry about their job and not their Reputation. Just because I'm An A/B list Personality of the site doesn't mean I'm going to start an uprising against you.... that is unless you aren't doing your job.... oh fancy that.

I don't have a problem with the rules in place. I have a problem with the lack of enforcement, and blatant favoritism. and if any of you moderators have any questions about this, Contact me personally about it. Ill tell you my issues.

The problem with mods...is that yes, they're human. Obviously, if someone intelligent or caring or not a total bastard/bitch breaks the rules (excepting spam), the moderation staff is going to wonder what's wrong, and won't willingly strike. However, that's natural human emotion. Schools, prisions, and sometimes the police do things like that. It's a record, if yours is clean, you're going to get lesser of a punishment.

Also, I think that we have a very thin line between member responsibility and moderation duty. Have you ever thought that, when a flame war is about to happen, you can use WORDS to solve your problems, instead of inb4lock? You can still report to the mods, give them a little heads-up and a "watch this if it goes too far", but sometimes, things can be solved by the members, instead of the mods. You realize that you DO have some power members: you have the power of yourself, and the power to influence others. Use the power...and use it wisely.

We honestly just complain to the first sign of authority we see. Something's wrong in the U.S.? President's fault. Something's wrong on digibutter? Mod's faults. But guess whose faults it really is?

Yours.

Calm down and look at yourselves.

How is it my fault if someone gets jailed for stuff I got away with scores of times?

Why do I have a clean Slate, I don't deserve it. Luck? No its favoritism. The mods need to suck up some of their human Quality's and do their job. Unbiased.

Oh, you're specifically focusing on Spam? Alright then, I thought we were above arguing about spam, since spam is spam. I see a point there. But every other strikable aspect I stand behind my reasoning, sorry. ^^

Agreed 100% about the bias thing. All the mods are biased in some way, heck, even Francis is biased.

You want me to prove it? Two words: Lord Bowser.

He's a ridiculously huge spammer, yet for a very long time the only time he'd been striked/jailed for real is that one time he went overboard and posted the same thread 6-8 times at a party. Recently it's been improved on a bit, but even before we had mods Francis was just moving/deleting his threads and doing nothing else about it. Why? Because he makes quality posts occasionally. Because every bit of spam he's ever made is actually, well, funny.

This is unfortunately the case with other semi-quality members. If somebody doesn't bring much epicness or good to the site, no mercy. If somebody who's a semi-quality member spams or flames rarely, they don't get striked often.

If somebody spams all at once, for example they post 4 spam threads in Feedback, they get severe punishment, regardless of member quality. Jailing for a week or two, perma-banning, etc. However, if somebody slowly spams, such as making a spam thread in Media, then in a week one in Feedback, then in a few days one in General Discussion, waits a month, and then repeats a similar process, they'll likely get jailed for about an hour and that's all.
