Phred made a post that claimed that three users were banned.  Only two of those users were banned, and the user who wasn't has a similar political outlook as Phred.

He is biased as fuck, and more people need to be brought in to fix the current bullshit, especially when someone who bans you refuses to message you back.  It is unprofessional, and overall a scumbag move.

Phred allows people to call people known pejoratives, but does nothing about it because the people lean in the same political direction as himself.

My problem with the guy is that he has certain people who for whom he looks for reasons to discipline and other people who he will let get away with murder.  I've never had a problem with him as a user, but as a mod he is horrible and incredibly biased.

You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

Phred and I have gotten into plenty of heated debates.  We clearly do not share the same political philosophies.  I have yet to be warned, banned, or even wet willied by the guy.

There are multiple people in this thread that agree with my general sentiment.  More moderators on the other end of the political spectrum as Pris#1 and Phred are needed.  The rules that are posted need to be enforced equally even if someone aligns with the mod's political beliefs. 


1)  NO FLAMING ...if you can't state your case or refute another poster's case without calling them "stupid" or an "idiot", etc. then don't bother posting here.  This forum is for intelligent debate, not to try to belittle another member posting in the forum who doesn't think like you.  THIS WILL BE STRICTLY ENFORCED.  If you have been warned already, you will receive a temporary ban, if you continue to flame you will be banned permanently. Choose your words wisely or suffer the consequences.

This should apply to everyone, including zappaisgod who calls people names 24/7.  It's fucking bullshit that specific members get away with something just because they have name recognition.  They bait and troll without repercussion.

While I'm not addressing any specific persons or pointing any fingers I find it hard to fathom the ruling that veterans (of which I am one) should be able to break rules that others can't.  That is beyond dumb and ugly imo.  The rules should apply to everyone equally.

However I don't make the rules of this game and imo it's nothing but a game and if the owners want to make dumb/ugly rules for play then then that's how I'll play the game as long as I want to play here. :shrug:  Actually it's not surprising. I've been seeing this shit at play my whole life in the work and social world.  Humans aren't capable, on the whole, of much more.  I know I've done it. My hands aren't clean.

Well the admin sets the tone.  If they wanted something else there would be something else. 

I know this from being a manager myself.  I set the tone and almost everyone got with the program. I got rid of those that didn't.  It was very simple and effective.  But maybe a wrinkle here is that these are not paid positions.  There is no incentive to do well other than quality personal ethics and those are hard to come by.

SO which moderator gave the FBI the IP address of DPR? His arrest was 100% a Shroomery moderator snitch. These people are shameful.

I think he said "including" you.  That means other people are involved.  I know you want to be a very impotent person but I don't think this is all about you. :lol:

Even you yourself named other people you think this is about besides you.  But you are a major player on the flame train I guess. :haha:
