I'll create a thread for users that want to know how many points they have.

This is for the discussion of the four topics presented in my original post. So far we have some discussion on point four, but one, two, and three are lacking.
As far as I'm concerned this thread should be closed...if you want to know how many points you have just ask and we will tell you.

Great, but could it be coded into a page users can just access on their own at some point?
Will there be a thread to dispute points? I remember the whole incident meatspace was talking about and I agree that she should not have recieved any points.
(All she did was invite people to view a thread and leave a rating. She didn't even say what rating to leave, just provided a ratings link. Some mod read her mind and gave her points based on thoughtcrime.)
She deserves a thread, or some other review process. Is there one in place that she should use?

If that was the sole purpose of my thread, I would agree. However it is not, and I do not.
Also, that is not the only request regarding points. It would also be dandy to know what the points are for, what the scale is, and where/how/if they can be contested.

That is untrue...Meatspace was given an unofficial warning by the mod and no points were given to her.
There is 1 forum that a banned user has access to...the forum of the banned, that is unviewable to most users. They can plead their case there in 1 thread...if a user uses that forum to create a disturbance or to try and make it into another OTD, they will be permabanned...no appeals.

yeah, I've heard about stuff there.
You know what you could do then right? Users with 0-3 points could be allowed access to the banned forum in addition to all the usual forums. This would be both a symbolic reward for maintaining good behavior, and a chance for the well behaved members to try and talk some sense into those misbehaving members.

"1. No reason for it. 2. LOL 3+4: behave, and you are never going to come close to a ban. "

3+4: Don't do drugs, and you don't have to worry about what they really do to your body. DARE logic.

You always welcome to start your own website and post pics of naked she males to your hearts content.

Daimyo, I understand your concerns and I sympathize with them. However, it's important for me to stay the course. I think it would be a mistake for me to cut and run. I think it would send the wrong message.
We should be friends now.

I just personally think that I've been doing a heck of a job and that we all shouldn't be playing the "blame game", here.
Either way, let's all put this behind us and be friends now. Let's do it for The Shroomery.

I wouldn't want to see you de-modded. For the most part, I really don't think you've done a bad job. I just think you've made a couple questionable decisions and I would like you to acknowledge that. We are of differing opinions on the matter, though, so I don't expect you to.

Thanks Redstorm. Would you say that I've done a "heck uva job" other than the whole smiley situation?? 
Listen, I don't think that we're going to ever completely see eye to eye on that situation as you've said, but let me try and explain in more detail. Was your post the most hateful thing I've seen in The Pub? Of course it wasn't. However, even though all you did was post a smiley, your intent was to be demeaning and inflammatory at that particular time. That sort of thing shouldn't be allowed in The Pub.
All this comes down to is a misunderstanding of the purpose of The Pub. The Pub is the one place on The Shroomery where Shroomerites can post and not have to worry about being flamed, trolled or anything negative like that. Shroomerites who are tripping should feel comfortable posting in The Pub. Shroomerites who want to talk about personal or embarrassing situations should feel comfortable talking about that in The Pub. Without enforcement of the Pub rules, the line between OTD and The Pub is completely blurred, which makes having both forums pointless.
We all value your presence here at The Shroomery, Redstorm. I hope you can understand that I do see it from your point of view, but that it's important for The Pub to continue to be a safe haven for Shroomerites to chill out in.

I understand exactly where you're coming from. I just want you to know that I wasn't intentionally being malicious with that smiley. I understand it was probably posted at the wrong place at the wrong time, but I was not intending for it to be mean-spirited.
