Sorry, but that's hardly a warnable offense.

Warned and muted for trying to ruin Harry Potter?

I wasnt aware that there was a rule against that. You can't just make up rules as you guys go along.

I do give you a minus one for trying to ruin Harry Potter, Kyro. Never thought you would have sunk that low.

Kryo was warned for posting 'spoilers'. I posted 'spoilers' and didn't get warned. Why's that? Nobody has answered that yet.

You guys are wrong.

Just because people were angry because they ASSUMED he was posting real spoilers is NOT a warnable offense. People being angry is not a reason to warn anyone. The approach here needs to be totally objective, and not based on the emotions of a bunch of 14 year olds because their favorite series might be ruined. That's the most retarded thing I have heard in a really long time.

He should not have even received a verbal warning, or requests for him to stop doing what he was doing. He was speculating. That's not a rule. Just because you make it a rule to validate your own selfish need to subjecate him to OVERLY harsh treatment does not make it okay to warn him whenever you feel he's pissed off another member.

I honestly think you guys are taking the things he's doing a lot more seriously than you would if someone else did the same thing, just because of his history with the community.

Some people just dont rub others the right way. Are you going to warn everyone in the forum that has "incompatable" personalities as everyone else? I wasn't aware that there was a cB aryan race defining people that get along with EVERYONE else, because all they do all day is kiss everyones asses.

I didnt agree when people were calling you guys a bunch of nazis earlier, but now I see what's been happening here.

Well, Sandra, link me to them, and I'll see what I can do. Being as we can't in fact go back in time and undo his warning, that sems to be the only way to even that particular grievance out.

QUOTE
LOL no. The mods were wrong. I'd like them to admit they were wrong now and apologize. Why should I stop if I didn't do anything wrong?

The mods are keeping an eye on the people, but who's keeping an eye on the mods. What I am doing is keeping them honest. I am doing nothing wrong but it seems the problem the mods have is me bringing their abuses to light. Too bad they can't close this topic.

The thing is, James, is that there are people who do feel that you were doing something wrong. In the same way that you feel that they were. Which is why we should just call 'water under the bridge.' Unfortunately, there isn't a right or wrong here to cling to, however much we would all like to 'win.'

As far as 'keeping them honest' goes, given that you keep finding new offenses, you don't seem to be having much success; perhaps it would be more accurate to say that you are 'keeping them mildly irritated.' And that's not because no one has listened to you, or because we're too stupid to understand, or whatever, but rather because some just don't agree with you. No one has a problem with mod 'abuses' being brought to light. Just look at Robbi and Diana's recent escapade. It is merely a question of what constitutes abuse.

Oh, and Suzzette could have closed this topic whenever she wanted, so I'm not sure where that comes from.

So, you don't think we ought to ask someone to stop if they are visbly causing upset to other members? That's the broader issue, whether or not it's related to spoilers specifically, or to somethig else. Look, we can't undo what was done, and if the mod in question was acting in what they saw to be the best interest of the community, then they shouldn't be forced to apologize for that. Unless, of course, James is willing to apologize for causing upset. But both of those are personal decisions.

Well, yeah, but I was joking around. What I really meant was that you could link me to them, and I could try and provide an explanation as to the difference.

Oh, I realize what he meant. I thought he was refering to the power to actually physically close the topic, my bad. Although I would point out that Jusun's topics don't have 'untouchable' status.

Sorry, but I'm still not convinced.

If I told everyone I had a penis, and it visibly upset any group of males on this forum that took an interest in my vagina, because now they might be gay, do you think you should warn me for that?

That's like warning someone for telling all the 14 yr old believers in this joint that Santa and the Easter bunny really doesnt exist.

Upsetting people is not something that should be warned for. If you upset someone but you arent breaking an actual rule in the process, i dont understand why you should be warned for it.

honestly, i think it's a personal vendetta. rebecca was getting upset because she is actually a harry potter fan, and on top of that, a staff member. therefore, she was able to make up a rule to not have the book ruined for her.

agreed. in reality, people get upset over very small things. if someone told me that my name was cori, and i got upset with them, would you do the same as you did to james?

Well, one has to evaluate each situation individually, depending on the level of upset.

And frankly, other that forcing whoever it was who warned James to apologize, which is completely meaninless if they don't mean it, and there is no reason why they should if they think they were in the right, or possibly building a time machine, what exactly would you (or anyone, really) like us to do about the matter? Because honestly, this isn't particulalrly constructive. We realize that some people feel that situation was mishandled. So now what?

Sandra: The first one was clearly discernable as a joke, and as far as the second one goes, Podo was warned for that (well, not that one specifically, I don't think, but as part of his whole spree), so there isn't a discrepency there.

^ Oh, I've just seen what you meant, and Elba's spoilers were in tags (I think Rebecca added the ones to Podo's post, just to be clear), so she was fine, although somewhat tiresome, and Steven's were again clearly in jest.

first off, maybe you should read the objective of this thread. it's in the first post made by micron.

second off, we're discussing this now,

A: because james (as he's said many times) would like an apology.
B: to stop things like this from happening in the future.


I thought that was obvious.


This Is the feedback forum isnt it? I'm not just tripping here?

So how do you know James' posts werent just in jest? Seriously, you guys have been discriminating against James like you've red flagged all his posts and then you all sit down and decide which ones can be the very LEAST considered offensive by ANY standards.

Yes, Trish. Not being illterate, I do in fact understand the purpose of the thread. I just don't consider it particularly constructive.

As far as a and b go.

A: Yes, again, not being completely stupid, I think we're aware that James wants n apology. However, that doesn't oblige anyone to give him one if they don't feel they were in the wrong. Discussion about that is pointless unless either party actually means the apology, rather than being pressured into it for the sake of things, as I have already said.

B: Unless one finds a magic potion to make everyone's personal judgement identical, which seems unlikely to occur in the immediate future, then things like this happening is inevitable. Sorry.

---

Oh, and I was just offering my speculation (see, individuals here) as to the difference. The key word in my post was 'discernably.' And I don't think James is being discriminated against. Although I would like to point out that if someone sees what they perceive to be rule breaking, and act on it, that doesn't constitute discrimination, even if it happens to be one member repeatedly. If the rules leave too much room for such discrepency, then that is a seperate issue, but shoudln't be confused with bias. Again, however, what is past is past, and what would be more constructive would be to reevaluate the system, rather than retredding old ground.
