    Argeed Sja.

    I think There Stubborn people, liek the Mods, who refuse to back down, when they warn someone for something dumb. and we got people who refuse to back down from the mods, rather they get warn for something they deserve or not. To Me, I don't like those people, the normal .org AND the Mods who are to defensive and BS.

    I think Mods are like that, because My God, if they hae to back down and say "Sorry", it's the whole end of the world!! the Camels in Mith's Stable will all Die Because One of his own comrades (or even him) has to say sorry to a member he just banned for 3 days. Come on. I got Warnings I derserved and I never fought them, But I got these Stupid Warnings Lately, Most Noteably from Ser and them,that I didn't even derseve, and if I did Derseve something, mabye a Alert or 0 point warning. I think both sides needs to start backing down, .orgah members AND Mods. If the Mods can't,well, it time for New Mods. If >orgah members can't,well,we got a ploblem.

    I sure never felt divine Sjak. And I always worried I was making mistakes when I felt I had to get out the moderator "stick".

    My grievance, if you wish to call it that, is how some patrons handle their disputes with moderators, namely, by airing it in public. Now, there is nothing wrong with a public discussion about forum practices. However, it usually turns into a personal axe to grind to a particular moderator. It is at this point in these discussions that patron after patron goes down the same exact path almost as if they were lemmings marching to the sea. It gets repetitive and frustrating to see the same patterns repeating themselves. Fortunately, it doesn't happen very often here at the Org. And I'll doft my hat to Aenlic in that he stopped himself from that seemingly inevitable march to the sea.

    Lastly, moderators don't make "mistakes". They "go on power trips directed against innocent patrons with whom they have a personal vendetta"...or so it often seems. It would be nice to have a possible moderator "mistake" treated as if it might be a mistake" and nothing more.

    I agree with that and I think everyone is doing a great job.
