That was my post and I think you have mis-quoted Gizzmoe. His reply ended in...:-j

I think this indicated that he was joking.

If you are going to use what someone said as an argument, I feel that it's only proper to quote correctly otherwise it might be seen to be editing something to be bias to your point of view.

Moderators don't ban people. They recommend them to the admin (Neal) who actually does the deed.

I see what you are saying, however, without being patronizing a quote is defined as....

To quote is to repeat something from another source without changing it

Looks like Gizzmoe is running a G.W. Bush election here. He's losing in the popular vote but will somehow be able to go on as the Moderator for this forum! :nope:


I honestly don't want Gizzmoe to go. I'd rather Neal just castrate his power away and Barney Fife him.

I didn't change it. I just left something out. Reporters do it all the time! :yep:

Subserpent, you were already suspended thrice. waste gate, you twice. Instead of shutting up and being glad that we havenīt permanently banned you yet you post this nonsense.

I give people the opportunity to publically discuss issues they have with me and you two donīt seem to appreciate that at all! :down:

We are discussing issues about you. Just issues that you don't like to see/hear. :smug:

No, Neal gave me the right to suspend or permanently ban people. I then need to report why I did that. Thatīs the way it works on many boards.

What you are doing canīt be called "discussing", these are just tirades.

Itīs a right, itīs part of the job and not unusual that moderators can do that. And Neal makes sure that I canīt misuse that right.

<thinks we should ban everyone, that will fix it> :D

I will say this though, moderators here are not chosen by their popularity on the forum (this isnt a democracy last i checked). They are chosen by Neal for their demenor, attitude, reliability and behavior.

Gizzmoe is a moderator here because he is all of that, he is also usualy very fair in his decisions (we can all have bad days of course).

He is also moderating one of the toughest parts of subsim frankly, where personality, belief and political views are constantly clashing and then tend to get ugly. Not to mention the high volume of posts here. Also he is a volenteer, he donates his time in an attempt to maintain the high standards here at Subsim and not let things spiral out of countrol.

If you have an issue with how things are done here, you have 2 options, discuss it with Neal, or go somewhere else.

Cant we all play nice?
