There is a forum designed specifically for claims of moderator malpractice...I suggest you take your complaint there.

Yeh man... you know what... this is the most unusual "get together" that poeple have seen in a long time, if ever.  And guess what, not all of us are looking to be dicks... jsut maybe waiting for a reply from Civic.  All in good fun, and that's the way shit should be.  Dood,  get over yourself.


EDIT:  I can't believe that poltical correctness has now penetrated the fuckin internet.


Title: Um, where's my poll???
Post by: BTs_GhostSniper on September 13, 2004, 07:13:59 pm
Guys, I just got back from lunch and found that my poll I started before lunch no longer existed.  It was titled "What are Naru and Civic Doing...".  Just out of curiosity, where is it?  Why was it moved?  And who moved it?  I don't think there was anything wrong with it.  Hell, you guys leave people's posts about me being some kind of war-mongering Republican all over this forum but when I call two people out on their sexual indescretions I get censured???  Sounds to me like Adolf Hitler is ruling Germany and Austria again guys.

Peace.

Its in the sewage works (where we put removed topics etc - only viewable by admins)

I guess it was deemed to offensive, not suitable etc... it did go a bit far i guess!

Um, actually Harvey, hate to tell you but I'm an uberadmin on the MGL Forum.  So, basically, you can only censor me if I LET you censor me.  ;D

Yes, I do have total control (along with Eight and Fusion) of the MGL Forum (only the forum).  But the difference is I do not abuse my power.

Maybe you should read the 3rd post down from the top on this thread:

Ghostsniper, thats sort of like saying: "hey everyone! im making a country where you can rape and murder and steal at will and no one will stop you!" Sure, it'd be fun for a little while, but a real community needs rules.

We do have rules.  Our rules simply don't include the following:

1.  Moving and deleting threads just because they offend one of the admin.

2.  Moving and deleting threads just because they offend one of the admin.

3.  Moving and deleting threads just because they offend one of the admin.

also

4.  Moving and deleting threads just because they make Civic look bad.

Peace.

GS, a thread about anyone that is meant in a solely negative and offensive way would be removed regardless of who they are.

I can't believe that an explicitly malicious thread directed towards one of the top posters/battle league admins at MGL would be allowed to stand.

GhostSniper the thread was removed because it offended 2 community members by making fun of them. Why should I support that kind of bashing. Since the Jeb - Bondo issue we know where such threads can lead to. So I made it invisible. Simple. I don't see this as censoring, just moderating the forums.

Bye,

Mauti

It was essentially creative gay bashing

Um it went to far - was ment as a joke etc and moved on to mini's loth and me... there was no harm ment, appologies to civic and Naru if it was (understandably) offensive. As for me and loth - messing about, by no means gay bashing.

Hell, you guys leave people's posts about me being some kind of war-mongering Republican all over this forum

Well, you are a Republican, or at least your views are similar to those of that party, and you do support the war in Iraq.  "War-mongering" might be a little strong, but a post saying so, that actually references some debate in which you've participated, can hardly be considered a flame.

The role of the moderators on this forum is above all to maintain civil discussion.  We've found in the past that unrestricted personal attacks or even jests are detrimental to everyone's enjoyment of the forum.  No one here is a prude, so it's not like we try to be excessively strict, but an entire thread devoted to poking fun at someone's sexual nature is inappropriate on this board.

Anything substantive and/or grounded in fact thing that you have to say about any topic will never be "censored" (unless of course you post it off-topic in the wrong thread or BB).

I ask you, as an "?ber-moderator," surely you have grounds to delete posts/threads on your other bulletin board.  On this one, our grounds include

1.? Moving and deleting threads just because they offend one specific person, admin or otherwise, if they do not consist of otherwise useful or discussion-worthy content.

[digression]
You might notice that that's a fairly nuanced statement.  Nuance allows for flexible in course of action when situations don't meet expectations.  That's something you and hopefully George W. Bush will someday learn to appreciate.
[/digression]

Hello Bondo.  I don't post much anymore but it's good to see you around.

I think Simon and Ashley (can't use netnames for a relationship) are enjoying themselves royally and I wish them both the best of luck... Not that they need it.

Long live love.

I saw the thread and thought to myself it was offensive. The only reason why I didnt move/delete it was because BFG was posting in it and I thought it must be some sort of ongoing joke between you all. I know now I should have moved it immediately. And it would have been moved wether it was anyone from the community (including you GS) or an admin. I can only apologize to Civic and Naru for not moving it before Mauti did.

voods

You can find a grand example of what happens when a forum is un-moderated here (http://www.planetgameranger.com/forum/)  ;D

Just a waste of bandwith.

GS, although your poll is quite funny for us, it might not be for civic and naru. You should understand that.

Post by: Mr. Lothario on September 14, 2004, 07:47:54 pm
     I think something needs to be put into perspective here. This was public knowledge. On GameRanger. PUBLIC on GAMERANGER. I'll give you a moment to let that sink in.

     Now, when I think of GR, I don't think of loving and supporting best buddies. I think of a social environment where trash-talk has been developed into an art form. Lemme put it this way: if I was going to booty-call some girl from GR, the very last thing I'd think of doing was telling people on GR about it, because I know what would happen, probably including threads being made about my sexual performance with said girl.

     Anyway, just my input.

I seriously doubt Civic or Naru even care about a simple funny poll and posts on the forums. They have each other. What more could they want? Naru was told about it and she didn't even seem to care. I don't know about Civic but I do know he has a creative sense of humor, he'd probably be in on it if any of us were to do the same thing he did.
