Smood Posted April 10, 2003 Share Posted April 10, 2003 Rules are fine, controls are fine. BUT WHEN YOU HAVS MODS WITH SIGS LIKE THESE, IT IS INCREDIBLY IDIOTIC AND STUPID! It just demonstrates the fact that moderators enjoy abusing their power. better watch out, better not cry... i'm gonna ban you, and you wont know why.... THIS IS SPY1's signature. It makes me so mad.

The Truthful Liar Posted April 10, 2003 Share Posted April 10, 2003 Ha. Actions precede words. Spy's sig does NOT demonstrate the 'fact' that mods abuse their power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smood Posted April 10, 2003 Author Share Posted April 10, 2003 See... it is just made into one big joke. You employ rules yet you have individuals who ABUSE the power that comes in enforcing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leXX Posted April 10, 2003 Share Posted April 10, 2003 Do you honestly think someone would get banned without a good reason? This forum is far from a dictatorship. His sig is a joke, you know... JOKE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smood Posted April 10, 2003 Author Share Posted April 10, 2003 Well I apologize then. I did take it as a joke, but I also thought it was a reflection of his power. The fact he enjoys being able to talk to anyone without them being able to talk back. As they say power corrupts, but who am I to say such things?

Smood Posted April 10, 2003 Author Share Posted April 10, 2003 The reason I may not have humor is because MODERATORS ARE STRICT about their rules not flexible, SO IN TURN, I'm strict with what I see, what I think. If you want to do things by the book, then expect order, and no humor. If you are willing to relax and be flexible, then I can laugh at a joke. Simple as that.

Smood Posted April 10, 2003 Author Share Posted April 10, 2003 Keep going, I might eventually laugh. Looks to me like you are a casual fan with a very flimsy respect for STAR WARS with your Yoda smoking avatar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPY_jmr1 Posted April 10, 2003 Share Posted April 10, 2003 look guy... I am a SWAMPIE, first and last, and everywhere inbetween... being a MOD..SUPERMOD...ADMIN doesn't strip one's sence of humor... we're not "STRICT" (well, sometimes) but we've SEEN it before, and know how to deal with people. what exactly do you have to offer for example of STRICTNESS? i'd be glad to explain. one counter example comes to mind, a JEDI_SPY or somesuch jerk came along, and stole my name (SPY) he treated me like a total ass, and if I had given in, he'd have been banned right there. I didn't. I banned him for a worse offence, later that week. abuse? how? *waiting for "witty" reply* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how me having a smoking Yoda avatar has anything to do with how much of a fan I am or how much respect I have for the franchise. Sounds to me like you're just trolling now.

Smood Posted April 10, 2003 Author Share Posted April 10, 2003 Although I admire this act of restraint, you even considering banning him is ludicrous. Unless he flamed you DIRECTLY FOR NO REASON, then I don't see any reason why he would even have been considered for banning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darklighter Posted April 10, 2003 Share Posted April 10, 2003 I think you might have to do a little research into the rules, Smood; members can be banned for many reasons aside from flaming. Moderators and Super Moderators are picked because the admins feel that they will do their job well and carry out the rules of the forum in a suitable manner. Are you telling me this suitable manner involves not being allowed to have a joke? SPY is a good moderator, a very good one, I will tell you that now. I look up to him, as I do with some other members of the staff, as a figure of importance and experience in these forums. I don't think you're in a position to judge how the mods do their job: the admins judged his ability and potential when they modded him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swphreak Posted April 11, 2003 Share Posted April 11, 2003 Originally posted by Smood Looks to me like you are a casual fan with a very flimsy respect for STAR WARS with your Yoda smoking avatar. Ok, I'm probably 1 of the biggest Star Wars fan (EU area ) and I see nothing wrong with his avy. I think it's hilarious! Originally posted by Boba Rhett I'me extremely sorry moderators enforce board rules yet allow people to joke. This shall be rectified immediately. LMAO There are many rules beside not flaming. And I have not yet seen one mod abuse their power yet. In fact, I find SPY pretty funny. It's that thing called "humor." You should try and get to know it sometime.

Spy is trying to lighten up the mood. Lets kill him. So, your saying Rhett does not respect Star Wars because he made an avatar of Yoda smoking? oh no! Kill that guy because he has Luke in his name. Man, what are you, a 50 year old guy who stays on his computer and tells everyone that they are using their sence of humor for evil? It seems like you are, because your calling a website a dictaorship. : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
