I don't get why popple should be de-modded. He only does his job. |

He's basically the only mod who DOES his job. Maybe he's a little more harsh than some are. If you think about it, he flames less people than those who flame him. Nobody's perfect, don't expect a mod to be. |

Ehee hee hee! It isn't up to the public to determine the fate of Popple's position, nor is it your concern whether you believe that he is not liable for moderation. That responsibilty lies with Francis alone. As far as I have seen, Popple, is just a strict moderator with a very authoratitive attitude, which is exactly what we need in Digibutter to stop the spam from completely overflowing and corrupting the entire forum. There always has to be at least one member of the staff that dishes out punishment and retains order among the civillians. Popple is not just some heartless "Power Abusing" moderator, he's just a moderator who believes that the old-fashioned way is better. |

You edited it to "YOU MAMA" and then changed your first post to "MY MAMA?". And it was posted during a giant wave of spam. Popple was too busy locking and striking other, worse spam topics to read every single post in a topic that looks like it deserves a strike. |

Alright, for ONCE, I'm going to write a wall of text. This is definately against my better judgement because I swore not to get involved in arguments, but I want to end this one once and for all.
Popple does not deserve global moderation powers because
1. His demand for the Digibutter population to obey his every whim. People are volatile, and don't like new rules being thrust into their faces, changing their everyday lives.
2. His inability to see the fact that some aspects that he doesn't like could be important to other people. He was adamant in his viewpoint that RPOT was doing nothing for the forum, when he didn't even consider that a lot of posts in RPOT means lots of people actually like it.
3. His tendency to flame. The Seesaws were a group DEDICATED to putting down other people, and if anybody did one thing that even shows opposition in any way, they were automatically dubbed "emo" and ganged up on. He claimed it was "only a joke" for the first time WEEKS after it ended.
4. His hypocrisy. He went on a "STOP SPAM IN RPOT" rampage, and has never done anything about it. He even tried to pin the blame on me for not cleaning it up, when he's the one making it an issue.
5. His willingness to cheat to get his way. He struck 4 innocent posts to get a person back in jail, because I let him out after he served a reasonable amount of time. He also locked and struck a person because he said "You're an idiot", when the preceding sentance was making people aware that he was talking to himself.
6. His IQ equal to a garden hose.

Last time I checked, "Yes" and "No" don't mean the same thing.
So, there it is. He's not "The only mod that does his job", he's the only one that makes a big deal about it when he does. |

I've never been caught in any unreasonable punishments(not from Popple, at least.), so I'm just going to stay out of it. It's not a group decision, it's Francis'. |

You're saying he doesn't deserve to be a mod because he didn't consider that activity = members actually liking RPOT? That's a reason to say he should be taken off of a digibutter debate club for not addressing a single point that wasn't ever pointed out, but he should be demodded because of that? Hardly anybody considered that point, heck, you're the first person to bring it up. So, I guess you're the only member deserving of being a mod?

Plastic...you know how idiotic what you just said is. Why the hell did you press "Submit"? You're the one who posted a topic in Off-Topic asking why he wasn't cleaning up the spam. You're a mod, if you see a spam problem clean it up yourself, don't tell another mod to do it, and then later blatantly lie and say you never did.

The OoC clause, Seesaws and "Delete RPOT". He flamed anybody that disagreed, saying "We're in denial".

He specifically said that "If we delete RPOT, ALL the other forums become more active!" He doesn't care about how others feel about what he thinks, as long as it happens. Not many people would be happy if the most popular forum was deleted because of broken logic.
Let me quote: He wanted it gone because he said "It caused ALL of Digibutter's problems".

Wiki page. At the bottom.
Oh, and it was heavily edited to cover his tracks, so check the history of the page.

You don't seem to have a problem with TSSG and Francine making rules. >.> Making a rule shouldn't be reason for de-modding. And Seesaws and Delete RPOT aren't rules, nor are they demanding everybody to obey him. Plastic, use common sense.

Let me quote: He wanted it gone because he said "It caused ALL of Digibutter's problems". He said himself it was one of the biggest causes of Digibutter problems. Not the only cause. And it really would make all the other forums active. People would stop jamming themselves into 2 seperate "chatrooms", OT and RPOT, and actually get around to doing things like gambling in the Star Carnival or suggest something in Feedback.

He never said "You're an idiot" anywhere in that topic, nor did he direct any sentences toward himself. And I'm really starting to think you're making up this "struck 4 innocent posts" junk. He has Jail Keys, you know.
| Quote: | | 6. His IQ equal to a garden hose. | Flame. Which is quite subtle compared to what he's done.

No. Again Plastic, quit being so sensitive. I suppose next you're going to suggest we ban Bowser Jr. for excessive flaming. |
