Considering though that he was not insulting you, but was taking issue with how you responded, I don't think it was fair. I mean, essentially he was doing the same thing I did, just phrasing it slightly differently. I think it would be disingenuous of you to deny that your personal dislike of/feud with Chula didn't have something to do with that.

You're reasonably voicing your opinions. I wouldn't ban you for that. Chula made things unnecessarily personal. I asked him not to do that. He did not comply. I banned him for that.

I appreciate that, actually. I half-expected to come here and find I was banned, which would have confirmed you had gone total Boo-Boo on us.

Since I'm pretty sure that's not what the Administration would agree to, it's mostly just banter as for now.

Surely that doesn't matter? Mods have been made/unmade before. I don't see what the admins have to do with it?

Stop being so hyperbolic.

I was using you as an example of how silly it would be to ban me, or Chula, or anyone else. I didn't think you said anything untoward, I was just saying well if anyone raising any kind of dissenting opinion or the slightest, um, slight on another member qualifies as banworthy, you're in the firing line too. It was totally not what I would believe myself, and yes, in the context of what I saw happening, hype to the max.

The problem is the way members deal with it not the mod team.
Hi friend.  I'm always eager to read your comments filled with utter disgust of us. |
No, as I said, I have no problem being slagged off. Personal stuff doesn't bother me. Usually. Thanks to Batty I've learned to be more flexible and have had the stick surgically removed from up my arse. BUT sometimes it can go too far, and on those rare occasions it should be time for a mod to throw a bucket of ice water over the offenders and say "Knock it off, you two!"

I actually though, on first glance, it was a picture of sh
it. Which would of course also have worked.
Oh, and Christ yes! Lisna! Why didn't I think of that? A perfect choice, perhaps THE perfect choice. Make it happen (if he wants it). You couldn't ask for a better mod in waiting.
