    I wish I had the quote. Someone once said that demands community know whats going, hides stuff from community. Yeah, he's a mod or something equal to that.


    FOUND IT

    I removed the name and post number.


    ONE MORE THING: I'm gonna go to the homesuck thread and complain. You know cause I don't like.

    If they can complain to close a thread, can we complain about a thread being closed to have it reopened?

    I dunno, I'll ask grey.

    I don't see the issue. If you don't like the discussion of clop then why did you enter the thread. Some people are just so dumb.

    Like, why even.......................Urgh

    I don't think I ever even posted in it. I'll stand up for the principle of the thing then!

    That is an example of closing a thread because you dont like it.Not because it breaks the rules.

    A trait of a bad mod.

    This was his quote for when he closed it

    Says he closed it because of complainants, which still makes no sense. I hate that, better enter to make sure.

    Okay guys, time to clear things up.


    It wasn't my decision to close the clop thread, it was a combined collaborative based on multiple complaints. We do not allow clop, and discussion of it, especially when it becomes borderline NSFW, is highly suspect.

    If you guys don't like the fact that it got locked, contact an administrator and we will review your complaints and possibly re-open it. No promises.


    Also, unfortunately I am unable to disclose any staff information, otherwise I'd be fired. So my dream of telling you all what goes on won't be realized. I am sorry.


    Also, if you have a problem with me, go ahead and tell me or someone else. It's not like I'm going to ban you for saying that I'm a bad mod. Sure, I do make some stupid mistakes, but we all do.

    Now, who wants cookies?!

    I think he was talking about the report button. Not sure what there was to report though. Maybe that one Twi picture, but that was just a "saucy" pic if anything.



    So even talking about is bad now? Well what about the drug talk a few pages back. I hate drugs, did I complain? No.

    I find this part funny "Also, unfortunately I am unable to disclose any staff information, otherwise I'd be fired. So my dream of telling you all what goes on won't be realized. I am sorry." Especially with that quote I found earlier.

    I don't have a problem with you. I have a problem with all authority. It's all the same to me.

    Also, Sparky: I love you too my man. <3
    And for the record: I actually liked the Clop Thread. I didn't like Sexy Librarian Twilight, sure. But it was a great discussion topic. But I was told to lock it by my superiors.


    So do not make assumptions of which you have no proof to back up. <3


    Your logic is simply... exquisite, by the way.

    It wasn't ANYONE'S Idea, really.


    It borderlined NSFW in content, and therefore, everyone on staff unanimously agreed to lock it to prevent anything more from spouting from it, not to mention the complaints (Via PM and other means) that were sent to all moderators of the forum.

    Research, my boy. It can save your logic.

    It was just words, are they no longer safe. Can we not discuss things anymore when it offends someone. That if it truly offended them, why enter the thread. I seriously wanted to know what people thought. Guess I better stop trying to see other peoples points of view.

    I'll be reporting the Homesuck thread shortly. I find it rude and offensive to me.

    So, instead of deleting the "offensive" post and warning the poster, the thread was closed? Who's idea it was is irrelevant. IMHO it seems like killing a fly with a flamethrower.

    Because it wasn't 'offensive' to some people. Again.
    Borderline NSFW.

    The same reason that people complain when R34 art is along side normal art on other websites. They don't want to see it. R34 art doesn't bug me, but clearly that isn't the case for everyone. It's the same thing here. They see a thread about clop, (there isn't a problem with that in itself), but it did kinda go NSFW a few times.

    How? it was words.

    What made it not safe. Was it that Twi pic? That was just one pic. Was it the discussion? The fact that I was curious what others thought. Is trying to discuss and see others points of view not safe now?


    When?

    if you didn't like it, then don't go in it.
