I try to let things go. I truly do, but then you have to be an ass about things.
ChiroVette I don't know if you read my initial post in this forum where I called a former Super a Nazi, but if you did read that post it explains why there became such an issue in the Sports forum and with many members on the site with this one mod in particular. The key to that issue was a lack of respect. Questions would not be answered, he would act like everything is a joke to him when you are asking serious things, and would come off like a complete ass in the way he acted. Just like banning someone for 7 days turns off new members from neo, a super mod acting like that turns off old members (from a membership perspective who you want to keep because they are the guaranteed viewership unlike new members who might be gone in a month). How you are acting now is so similar to every reason I and many others hated that person. None of this is based off on stuff from the past cause I never had any issues with you or thought anything different, it is all observations from how you randomly started acting just the other day.
Enigma was right on with what he said and instead of just explaining to him that either he was wrong with his point of view you insulted him and were an ass him to him. Now, did Enigma give you a little attitude in his post. Certainly, but you aren't in the same position as Enigma. You took on a greater responsibility when you decided to accept being a Super and with that responsibility you are going to take some criticism. Take it like a man and be respectful when you defend yourself. High up politicians are kind of like the Supers of real life and I see people asking for them to be shot and all of this. Never have I seen Barack Obama respond by calling them an idiot. George Bush never talked down to the people who hated him like they were below him and he was better. Chiro you seriously look like you are getting offensive over legitimate complains and are acting like an ass about it.
About the Nazi thing. First, there is no reason for you not to have answered me. Why is my question so stupid to you? I write a post (yes, mine was written in a harsher tone and you werent the one who edited it) where I called someone a Nazi. When my post was edited I had no problem with that and thought that was fine. I was being a dick and went too far with it and
Lone Warrior editing my post was fair. Now Chrio, you might have had a more joking tone to your post, but your post was JUST as offensive as mine.
windowlicker, did you appreciate that your policies were being called Nazi policies? Did it make you feel like he was basically saying you were a Nazi with your views? (Hmmmm sounds familiar... I wonder who wrote something like that before) You could even argue mine was less offensive because odds are the people I was talking about werent going to read my post, while the people inferred in Chiro's post were definitely going to read it.
Lone, you touched up on your view on the whole situation, but as I see differences between Chiro and my posts, I think the same concept holds true. In my opinion, if you edited my post then at the very least you should have done the same to Chiro. Think about it from this perspective, if I wrote that post instead would you not have edited it this time? I think it would have warranted being edited and I wouldn't have complained about it like the first time.
As for the whole G&A situation, I can agree that the idea of banning someone is an issue and it should have just been like a list of people not being allowed to ask for a new request for a week instead of actually being banned. Look how I just said that (my actual view) and in a way that didn't piss everyone off. If you just said it like that instead of blowing it up there wouldn't have been such a huge issue. Instead you went on an anger rage and called people Nazi's and blew up over it. You could have easily explained that the idea behind the concept isn't bad, but the way it is being done is a turn off to new members and we do not want to do that.
Last, to Chrio's response to Windowlicker saying he lost respect for you... Come on. Not everyone is going to like you and think your way of doing things is fine, but having respect is important. When members on this site (and I can tell you I'm sure there are a lot of members reading this stuff and losing respect for you because you are looking like an ass in how you have been responding) you should care about that. Instead of brushing off with a joke you should have said, "I'm sorry to hear that" and being respectful so maybe he can one day regain some respect for you instead of making a joke at his face and basically assuring that he will never respect you and a lot of people reading that post wouldn't either.
I hope you can read everything I said and instead of getting personal from me putting some shots, you can be the leader you are supposed to be and take my points and really think about them. You wouldn't like to be treated the way we are being treated if the roles were reversed and I was the one in power. I also hope if you respond to this that you won't just get upset over me going after you (which I don't think I did in a mean way or too far) and can actually talk about the content of my post.
