Buck Satan - A question

CM · Post by CM » Thu Aug 17, 2006 7:05 pm

When I informed you that i was resigning as a mod, i explicitly stated that I was leaving for the reasons that moderators were abusing their powers. I refered to moderators openly flaming members and moderators locking threads they were participating in and then editting their comments afterwards to make themselves look better. You commented you understood my reasons and frustrations but had many real life concerns. The PM conversation was limited at that.

I would request that when you have the time, explain to us why moderators that have been abusing their powers - all three times you knew of the abuse and commented on it in the mod forums - are allowed to stay but moderators who have not broken any rules or abused their powers are demoted?

I would certainly be interested in the reasons for such a lapse in moral judgement.

From behaviour I witnessed, I'd be interested in this too...

Read the new sticky and Buck's final reply in your 3rd thread.

I think that's about all we're going to get.

I am a little disappointed that it was phrased in such a way that it implies you should expect your thread to be deleted (at a minimum) if you have anything critical to say of management.

I've said everything I'm going to in my latest announcement here in SYM. If you have concerns about any existing moderators, you are more than welcome to send them to me in PM.

Everyone is welcome to express their opinion about these changes, but flames will always get deleted. His post was very inflammatory and was a direct insult toward me and the rest of the staff. As long as a post remains civil, I have no problem with addressing the concerns within.
