Because he's a moderator now, duhhh

I don't see what the big deal is. If people who were to use that account were held equally accountable, it would be doing things at their own risk and if they f**ked up then everyone who used the account would receive equal punishment.

I'd say get rid of the rule that says you can't, but at the same time don't officially support it so that it's not like people can turn it around and shove it in your face that you supported it.

jusun saw the potential in it, but then i'm sure james cried to him about how it would cause the downfall of cB.

sorry james, but if you're the one that is the cause for the rule, you CAN'T ARGUE AGAINST IT! hypocrite.

regardless, i think rebecca seemed ok with it and we'll move on with that.

I actually was considering it, until your cohort decided to jump all over me when I started talking about responsibility. Not a good way to convince someone to allow you to have a group account, I must say.

That and the fact that I learned that that account already has a verbal warning.

I'm not shutting the door on it yet, to be fair and it is still being discussed. I just think you both need to know that we are going to have to start seeing more respect. Not just towards staff members but towards community members as well. We'd like to trust you and yes, this isn't that big of a deal (group account). It's that track record that I think is holding some folks back. You both have a record for bashing, name-calling, spamming, etc. And you want a group account? Surely you can see why we'd be a little cautious about it.

(anyone makes a "and don't call me Shirley" comment, ala Airplane and I'm going to start the rum early. It's been a rough day)

Also - I just snuck on for a few minutes. I can't guarantee that I will have to time to read through the forum threads (including this one) over the next couple of weeks. If there is something that you think I missed, or some point you want to make sure I read, just PM me so I can go right to the quote.

which was unjustified. we get a warning for calling someone fat and pudgy, but he just kindly reminds someone that they can't use 'daft' when describing someone. we hadn't even done anything wrong on the account up to that point yet, either.

Spencer, the rule already existed before I used Nicki's account, it just hadn't been written down. If there had been no rule prior to that, I could not have been punished for it. And, once again, being as Nicki didn't know I was using her account, the situations aren't totally parallel.

As for why I'm so against loosening up on the rule, that would be because of the reasons which I have mentioned here. The ones you chose to ignore and call me a killjoy and try to get uppity about my 'past' or whatever instead of actually rebutting or trying to prove my concerns unfounded. Which you have failed to do.

I know this is covered, but it changed, and I think originally she was referring to if someone was suspended on their personal account, the shared one would have to be suspended as well.
