Something something nazi, something something communist. Mods suck. Sounds par for the course.

If you want my unsolicited opinion, one thing that might help with this kind of situation is implementing a mod-review system. If a member doesn’t agree with the mod’s decision, then the member can ask for another mod to review the situation. The second mod might uphold the previous mod’s decision, or overturn it. This can help prevent ideological or personality conflicts from skewing moderation. If the decision is upheld, then the member knows that it isn’t personal. If the decision is overturned, then the mod may need to rethink how they are making decisions. Sometimes we humans simply can’t see how we might not be as right as we think we are, and that outside perspective can help ground us a bit better.

awesome, a professional system, sounds great.

My suggestion was to have all moderators vote yes or no in a poll, to ensure fairness.

@VBMcGB are you sure you don’t want to join us? We really need your advice to learn. I would literally beg the admin if you wanted to join us.

@frugalfreak poking my nose in… I’ve been on several private boards that spun off from SD. In each case personality clashes came up and people got banned. It seemed so arbitrary to me (not a mod) as to who got banned and I was sad to see a banning here so early on. It really ruined those boards and some of them folded as a result. Hope you “powers that be” can come up with an equitable system of arbitration.

you are correct, forgot about the 24 hour temp ban. one permanent ban and one 24 hour one. The rest were spammers

@frugalfreak didn’t know about spammers
