Exactly. And that's why posting PMs is NOT allowed.

Please explain why we were told by ythan that posting PM's is acceptable then?\

You forget who owns this website when you come stomping in with your knee jerk reactions.

A mod made death threats against a member and your crying about harassment and posting of PM's.

Your reactions are pathetic and stink of face saving and damage control.

Frankly, I don't know. What I know is that it is called a Private Message for a reason.

Donno... maybe Ythan made a mistake?  Regardless, the posted rules clearly state:

Quote:

On Posting Private Messages:

Private Messages are meant to be kept private. We will not tolerate users posting discussions held in private correpondance, onto the public boards. Any private messages that are sent to a moderator or admin may be reviewed by the collective staff, but will never be posted in the public forum.




You can read it yourself at: http://www.shroomery.org/6284/Administrative-Rules-Guidelines

So tell me, who does own this website?  It isn't you... I know that much.

Quote:

Then the admin will deal with the situtation as appropriate, just as we are dealing with the issue of harassment and posting of PMs.

Quote:

This is not OTD.  If you cannot maintain yourself in a mature and dignified manner, then do not post, or you will be banned permanenty.  This is a touchy enough subject without you tossing fuel on the fire.  This is your one and only warning.  If you do not have something productive to offer, then shut up or loose your right to post.  :mad2:

Edit: misreply... supposed to go to Hanky, not Anno...

Thankfully Ythan owns this forum, a guy with more common sense than you'll ever hope to have.

At times I try and tell myself that you're an ok human being but your not. You're biased and have no concept of justice.

Actually, he does not. I won't go into specifics, but you are incorrect with your assertion.

While we speaking of  personal journals,
I wish we had a way of keeping them private, and
had a way of completely deleting them, instead of just editing.
Thats my wish for Christmas.


Continue the bickering please. :laugh:

Sorry, I cant take anyone with a christmas tree comming out of his ass seriously..

What Angryshroom did was uncalled for. Giving out a geographical location of a member is probably pretty serious to the admin.

Will you admin guys take away Angryshroom's mod priviledges??

This thread has been closed.

Reason:
I guess an official statement is necessary. I'm thinking back as far as my pot-addled brain can manage, and I'm pretty sure I never gave permission to post PMs in journals. If I did, it was before we arrived at a cohesive policy which was codified in the official guidelines. I did argue against censoring the Anything Goes forum, but that was because of a promise I made and looking back my arguments don't even seem that compelling.

More importantly, please stop invoking my name to argue with other admins. We do not have an adversarial or subordinate relationship; we make decisions based on consensus and we back each others' actions. If I make a blanket statement like "you can post PMs", it means either 1) the admins have discussed it and that's the policy, or 2) I'm wrong. Either way, there's no need to lash out at staff who are doing their job, unless you want to kill any sympathy we might have had for your cause. As the popular saying goes, "we don't get paid enough to deal with this shit" and you may just find yourself banned with extreme prejudice.
