terrible moderating, abuse of power

[Raoul Duke]

Before I say what I have to say, keep in mind I'm expressing my opinions on the site. That is what this forum is about. I'm not by any means attacking all mods. Just illuminating some issues.

Moderator abuse of power: to me, this is defined not only by the weilding of moderator abilities not only when they aren't necessary, but where personal feelings come into play.

Take for example, Nelly's recent issuing of a warning to me, for saying this:

Rofl. Fangirl. They "saved" you? LMFAO!

Shouldn't moderators be a little more judicious with their use of such bans? Otherwise they become meaningless. Giving them out willy nilly for poor, personal reasons, or for no reason at all, makes them meaningless.

You can also see the whole sarcastic, "btw, congrats Locke, one bar " comment, obviously trying to get a reaction from me.

What do you think? terrible unfair moderating?

My opinion is 95% of the mods and their actions are good. The other 5% must be addressed.

[Dretlin]

You should not have said anything, after the action, in the topic in question. That descredits you my friend.

Mhhh when people are as passionate about your opinion as you are, other users find it hard to absorb. You can not disagree with that can you Locke?

Well if you have an issue, do not fret it shall be raised with probably all of the mods, as one action is really part of us all.

However I feel Nelly is also a very senseable mod.

I agree there is one Moderator in particular; the every one Locke is talking about. Also the very Moderator who has been acting defectively will lock this tread because Locke has stated the truth.

I agree It is as what you say terrible unfair moderating. It also sounds as if She tryed to get a reaction to warn you. witch is also very unfair.

I Think That Her Temper is 'Way' Too Small.

If I Swear Once it Chat, She Swears At Me For Doing it..Which Isn't Really Setting an Example.
If I Make One Little Joke About Yuri or Something She Goes Absolute Aggro, But Then When She Jokes About Me Saying That I'm Gay or Racist Then By Her Standards is Absolutely 'Fine'!

So Basically We Are Doing Exactly The Same Thing Exept She Has More Power Over Me, Which is Pretty Unfair I think.

Just Saying..

[Commander Sparx]

I was there Amray, it was bad, [-X.

[Hardcore]

What is this, a petition?
Anyways, Locke. I wasn't trying to get a reaction. I didn't even know WHY I typed that, and sorry if it offended you, I doubt it did but still.
You were being way too cruel with Evelyn. And I'm not treating her specially. I'd take that action if you did that to any user. Why would you bash a user for having a different opinion than yours?

It's a little low of you.

Sparx you didn't address any names, but I'm going to "assume" that it is me. And trust me. I wont delete this thread until everything is settled.

And Amray. Jesus Christ drop it already. I didnt even yell at you for swearing, it was Bede that I yelled at. And it's because he keeps going and going and going.
One little joke? HA! That's all you talk about. And you get explicit with it.

Sign up to the adult hideaway, and go to hentai discussions. You're 17, it's legal.



-Anyways. Back to you Locke.
I believe I did not act unfairly, but I did blow it out of proportion. I apologize for the snide remark, about the bar. But you seriously need to stop offending people. It's getting rather hurtful to them. You may think that's stupid but it's the truth.

And thats all I have to say for now.

[Evelyn]

Raoul, Sam did that because you were stepping way out of line, you are randomly insulting me and my choice of music. Opinions are not a bad thing, they are very good things and they state who you are as a person but when you go as far as to start insulting people and their opinions, well, you should just stop there. I don't think Nelly is a bad mod, I am her best friend in real life and she still tells me if I am doing something wrong. I really do think you need to grow up, love. =/

[Commander Sparx]

I misunderstood the point, by means that I didn’t read all sides of the story. I would say what my opinion now, but I would only certainly get flamed.

[The Evil Russell Crowe]

This is gold.

This isnt kindergarten. Were not here to hold your hand while you cross the street.

At the same time, if youre going to enter a thread made for fans of ANYTHING. Realise, its not a debate thread. Don't make fun for their choice of words, or their tastes.

I wouldn't punish ya for saying that Raoul, same time, don't do it where its missapropriate.


Nelly does a fantastic job, some of us are pretty pleased with the work she does here, not speaking for everyone though, but at least me and people that have talked to me.

[Amray]

Thats Not Fair.

[Mik3]

Nelly looks like shes just doing whaty shes supposed to do. Just because they made a lil thread complaining doesn't change the fact they went inside a fan based thread with ill intention. I don't care who you know and don't know, but its stupid to knock someones tastes.

[Amray]

No Not That.
I Ran Out of Doritos.

[Mik3]

What the hell are you doing typing about it. Run fast and get more.

This thread actually doesn't bother me. (: It's opinionated.

Like I said earlier. The only thing I'M sorry for is the taunt. And it'll remain that way.

Yami-Haga Ryuzaki said that Raoul Duke(Locke) only likes people who share the same opinions with him.

And I agree with that statement 100%
He bashed the user:Evelyn for liking a band. It kind of upset me.

Yes. I know her in person. But AGAIN I would've done that for any user.

I didn't bash HER for LIKING the band. I expressed my opinion of their lyrics.

Then I laughed in amazement, by typing, "Lmfao" at how the band had "saved her", interested as to her explanation.


What you're doing is painting a false picture as to what occurred, and then attacking that picture, instead of addressing what actually happened. Read the thread properly. You're being immature.
