When is Rooks going to run for Moderator of the United States?

I'd totally vote for him
The Canadian Flag icon here looks suspiciously like a [+], why is that?
It's a desperate attempt at somebody giving a [+] to a Canadian, that's why.

Because clearly it's an indication that men from the moon -- that we didn't go to! -- shot JFK from the grassy knoll with a tranquilizer gun loaded with a vaccine for cancer that the government is withholding from us.

Because telling people to cool it, stay on topic, or to stop with the personal attacks without having to directly target someone, is such a power trip.

My god, the horrors of actually having to moderate a forum!

It's gotten people back on track more often than I can realistically count.

People have apologized, and moved on

Why cant we block Mods?

Because in ages past, there were cases where things in a thread got out of control, and a moderator would attempt to defuse it/warn people; only the mod was blocked, so said warning was ignored, and people involved ended up suspended/topicbanned when it might have just ended with a talking to.

So anyone with an opinion, or reasoning to your question you don't like, is somehow not a real source?

Lovely. You were given an answer why it isn't done, and no longer continues to be done.

But in all seriousness, if you are really that offended by "reading the BS", that somehow, mysteriously and magically equates into a mod or admin going into a "power trip" for performing their duties, instead of the BS that is general politics and religion thread discussions, the internet, is not a safe place to be.

Edit: So far, the count on things getting worse via public viewing, is 3-4 people, tops. one of which has been banned repeatedly for continued infractions.

As soon as your name turns green, you learn that there will be people who hate you simply because your name is green. I can't name names but there were people I got along with who turned to resent me as soon as my bar and name turned green.

(Well, bar. Our names weren't green back then.)

No, I've never had to declare bankruptcy.

I've used both methods, as the circumstances require. If it's a whole thread turning into a riot, it's public. If it's one or two people, PM. Like everything moderation related, it's a judgment call.

Anyway, you can't block mods because public messages are a useful tool. If someone abuses that tool or privilege, that's a different discussion, but "tossing around a green bar in a thread" is the least of the concerns to be had with a mod gone rogue (which is why everything is logged quite heavily now!).

Does that answer your question?
