I mean... this is simple logic guys... you need 3 mods to agree to overturn something, it makes zero difference whether the original mod votes or not because he isn't going to vote to overturn himself. So whether he votes or not it doesn't change that you need 3 other mods to agree to overturn.

Jesus christ this isn't some logic puzzle.

"Any warning can be appealed and a majority decision on the moderation team will be needed to overturn a warning."

2-1 is a majority decision. I don't see anywhere where it says there must be three positive votes. You are merely interpreting that rule to mean out of total moderators, not total votes.

Of course, we shouldn't even have five mods, but whatever, that's just business as usual for mods.

Tanoomba was thread banned from the rickshaw vote and the amod thread for some period of time, no? And your reasoning for the thread ban on the rickshaw vote was he shouldn't be able to vote on something that affected what he can do. And yet, amod can vote to approve their own actions. Brilliant!

You are making an awful lot of assumptions on who did what.

Maybe someday you will see the logs until then keep flailing.

I think we all interpreted it that way, if you want to an an addendum to clarify it your way I'm sure that can be voted on in the next round.

Ignore the other part of that post where you look like a dumb hypocrite.

But yeah, assumptions, maybe someday you'll actually have the moderator actions be transparent. Until then, keep up the hypocrisy (just kidding, I know that will always be a constant).

Nah, making and clarifying rules is for scrubs, a_skeleton_03 made that clear.

No YOU guys made that clear and I capitulated. Well other than you. You keep concern trolling for new rules.

So we were both doing the same thing and you capitulated, in other words. But now I'm a piece of shit for doing the same thing you were. I guess you think I'm just dicking around given your "concern trolling" comment and that's how you differentiate.

I actually view the foundational aspects of this forum as the most entertaining/interesting I've found the board in a long time, so that is where I have spent much of my time. In time, things will be solidified and normalized and there won't be as much content around mods, rules, etc, so yeah, I am taking an interest now. You play the multiplayer-only game at release, not five years down the line.

Whatever, weirdo.

You and I are different in that I wanted a baseline of rules.

You just keep inventing stuff day after day after endless day.

You follow other people's problems like a soap opera to latch on to them like a lamprey bd create drama. You are a leech, unsatisfied until you make a mark somewhere.

I should just make up a rule to attribute to you so you can be proud of it and stop chipping at the cracks.

What terrible rules have I proposed? I conceded that #4 can encompass shit posting and trolling and even has wide latitude given the moderator discretion line.

If RRP needed rules, why shouldn't thread bans? They can be just as silencing and punitive, especially to people who are only active in a few areas. But nah, let's have no holds barred on one of the most powerful abilities that a mod has available to them.

Having a moderator not vote on his own appeal? Man, what massive concern trolling.

What else? Advocating to have the actual rules enforced, as with RRP process, just like you did? Oh man, fucking apocalyptic tragedy right there.

Not continuous avatar/title changing, even though multiple people have said they dislike it being done repeatedly and you pointed out it chasing Araysar away yesterday? A crime close to murder I did commit.

You wanted a baseline and then repeatedly said other people can suggest new rules or modify or do whatever to the baseline. I go and do that AND OH DEAR GOD WHAT A TERRRRRRIBLE THING HAS HAPPENED!

No you aren't back to acting like. You never have on this forum outside of your retro game threads to be "back" being human.

You didn't expose shit so stop pretending you were running a smoke test. You aren't that smart.

It wasn't some kind of Machiavellian scheme, dude.

(Spoilered for "Didn't read")
I was fine for months on Rerolled keeping the posts I knew would disturb the shit in the Rickshaw. I had had enough experience being RRPed to know what would set the mods off, despite my not actually breaking any rules. I found a happy medium where I could still have my say and not be made an example of by butthurt pussies.

Then we moved here. The community joined their hearts and voices in demanding hands-off moderation. They insisted they were capable of handling trolls and shitposters on their own, that they didn't need the man policing their threads, relying on their personal biases to mete out "justice". Yes, I know they were talking about SJW mods word policing, but their words reflected my sentiments EXACTLY. However, I knew damned well that if I started pushing buttons before we even established any kind of rules that I would be dealt with harshly and I legit didn't want any of the discussion to be about me.

So I played nice, stayed out of the threads I'm known for, and didn't even make antagonizing posts in the Rickshaw. I allowed the process to play itself out without taking an active role in it. When I ran for mod I did so sincerely, with the strong expectation that despite the "more freedom" rhetoric and the voted-on rules, that it would just end up a case of "freedom for all, except those I disagree with". Preventing that was the foundation of my campaign. I promised to cooperate with anybody who would be co-mod, and to remain detached from the topics I felt strongly about by abstaining from participating in heated discussions.

In the end I didn't get elected, but since we had rules and moderators I was now free to see if we would stand by the ideals we espoused so proudly. If being punished according to the whims of mods was something people hated about RR, then I should have been able to make rule-abiding posts here and not have been touched by mods, right? Lithose gave me a great opening with his oblivious dopamine post. It was yet another example of hypocrisy and lack of self-awareness that was guaranteed to lead to a dogpile. So I put both the mods and the community to the test.

Best case scenario: The community meant what they said and there wouldn't be any more bullshit mod power abuse. I expected (at worst) an infraction/warning. If that happened, I would have reverted to keeping my controversial posts in the Rickshaw, taking the opportunity to point out how we didn't really have any more "freedom" than we used to (yes, I can be a prick too sometimes). Instead, Cowboy Khal decided to wave his dick around and go against the rules, the will of the community, and his own campaign promises.

I don't think it was a particularly genius plan, but that was my thought process and, fortunately, it's brought some things to the surface that are worth discussing and will hopefully lead to better moderation in the future.

You are completely out of touch with reality if you believe what you typed.

If you think what you are doing is well thought out and for a purpose and that you exposed anything new or things will change ...

Well if you do then I think you need a long sit down with the DSM to figure out what meds to start you on because you are having delusions of grandeur.

Regular Joan of Arc we have here or maybe V for Vendetta.

Never said any of it was "well thought out", I'm just describing what happened. You're not the first person to suggest that I was lying because I supposedly couldn't come up with a plan as simple as checking to see if everyone was talking out of their asses about this new "freedom". The whole point is that I didn't expose anything "new", I exposed the "same old" we were trying to get away from.

I'm more optimistic than you, though, in that I think things will change. I sincerely believe this will become a site that pays more than lip service to "freedom". We're on the right track!
