[ElvisLover]

If the man's apologised why the fuck isnt his moderation/suspension lifted?

[Rat Faced]

His suspension has been lifted...

He's on Moderation now

[ElvisLover]

Ah right okay then

Still seems very steep

[bujub22]

His suspension has been lifted...

He's on Moderation now
no it has'nt!

[manker]

The issue was let drop recently because a 2 day suspension was given as the punishment for Bujub linking to innappropriate content. That seemed fair given the circumstances of Bujub having a warn level of above 10%

It was not made clear that he would serve out this two day suspension and then get put on moderation. As far as I can see it is exactly the same thing since the mods have worked out how to avoid a ban in cases like this. Therefore the initial statement that he would serve a 2 day suspension is incorrect as it neglected to state that it would include a subsequent indefinite moderation period. I doubt the people who that initial statement addressed would have let the matter drop so quickly if that was made clear, I know I certainly wouldn't have.

This sort of indecision and misinformation is making this board tiresome and irritating to be a part of.

Incidently, demanding Bujub apologise in this section to the whole board is demeaning and smacks of power-hungryness. Wtf purpose did that serve, only about 5 people even seen the link since it was buried in a deluge of spam. Bujub is a grown man, ffs, not a 3 year old.

A rather unpleasant precident has been set.

[bujub22]

i wana know y im on moderation still when i did the days he ask i said im sorry but still on moderation??


anyone goin to tell me this!!!?

[BawA]

dude welcome back, i missed ya
btw why u were bannded :?:

[ElvisLover]

:lol: did you read his apology?

[BawA]

yehh :unsure:

[Gripper]

Missed ya buj,hope this can be let drop,but seems to me that there needs to be a specific set of rules posted and pinned,I love posting on this board and have been aided lots by the mods and other members,lets get back on track and have some fun :D

[bujub22]

2 half days later still on moderation ??and a formal appology??

[lynx]

Let's be quite clear about this.

The link bujub22 posted contained obscene material. There's no other word to describe it accurately. Such material and links to it never have been and never will be allowable on this forum. Speaking for myself, had I considered that he realised the full implication of the site I would probably have voted for a permanent ban, and I think most, maybe all, of the other members of the mod team feel roughly the same.

The initial 2 day ban was in order to give the mod team time to work out what to do about it. I know it is crazy, but the mod team can give a temporary ban but can't put someone on moderation, that needs an admin. We are trying to find ways round this restriction, but until we do temporary bans are the only option available if there's no admin online.

[bujub22]

ok here we go if ike left the post were i clearly appolgies for it in team chat and saw how ya felt about this with a trully sorry explaintion ya could have read that
1- at that point when i posted it ,it was a funand games cuz the thread it was in (oddpics)

2- no pm or warning was ever givin in any of my moderations and all were by ike

3- i applogized for what i did and see now that ya it was a mistake on my part and clearly served my moderation /ban and formal appolgy to the board


and the fact that i dont see how dog porn and male orgy's were jus clearly let by last night while mine as seen as a so harsh to the members!

??????????

[bujub22]

it looks to me like your tryin to use me as a example to others or clearly hav it out for me ;)

[DanB]

I didnt consider the pic to be obscene

btw where's those rules again? :unsure:

That's fine. I understand the predicament. However that doesn't address the issues here.

1) Two days ago it was intimated by Admin and Mods alike that Bujub would serve a two day ban and then he would be back. To me that means he will serve a two day ban and be back. Not that he would serve a two day ban and be placed under indefinite moderation. This was not conveyed in the conversations that day, either deliberately or because subsequent decisions to the contrary were made.

2) It has been indicated to Bujub that if he apologised to the entire board he would be allowed back. This is ridiculous for a number of reasons.

a) Anyone can write an insincere apology.

b) Only around 5 members seen what he is apologising for.

c) Kids are made to do this in school, do you want him to get someone to take a photo of him standing in the corner and have him post that too? It is demeaning and totally unnecessary.

d) It is blatently sent whoever instructed him to do so on a power trip. This person should be ashamed, as should the people who advocated it. If bujub felt it necessary to apologise of his own back, then fair enough but being ordered to do so reeks of narcissism.

e) Even though he complied with these instructions he is still under indefinite moderation. Would Bujub have apologised like that if he was made aware of what would - or in this case, wouldn't - happen.

Practically everyone I talk to is laughing at the ineptitude of the moderation team here. Is member management really this difficult?

[sArA]

There is no power trip.

Its hard to know what to do for the best.

Decisions have to be made and will not always be agreed with.

I have bujub22's homemade sig ffs! I don't want to see this all end in tears.

But, no-one can say that those pics weren't disturbing and with horrific implications... they were REAL not cartoons....not Itchy and Scratchy for prime time telly. This was R rated (18) stuff and is not acceptable on a board with young people on it.

I can't help but feel that the petulant defence of these pictures is nothing more than an excuse for a bitching session.

[ElvisLover]

The people that have seen them have all said they didn't find them offensive though. Link taken away, warning given - jobs a good 'un

Sara, I am not defending the pictures. Where did I say that.

I've a problem with the power trip - yes it was - and the misleading of Bujub and members alike with the fobbing off that's occurred since.

Would you have ordered Bujub to apologise to the whole board knowing 99% of members wouldn't have a clue what he was on about, knowing that he would still be on indefinite moderation subsequently and knowing that you were misleading him into doing such a thing by intimating that by him posting an apology it would be an end to the matter?

I sincerely hope the answer to that is no. There is no rhyme nor reason to this demanding of a public apology save to service one's ego. Such tactics belong in kindergarden.

[100%]

give them a reason to focus
and they will focus

Would that it were so simple....

Bujub has not had an unblemished career here, as I am sure we are all aware. It all adds up.

If there hadn't been such a fuss made on the board...bujub would just be working through his moderation and that would have been it.

But...I can't help feel a mountain is being made out of a molehill. The appology was to avoid a ban..simple as that. No ulterior motive.

@ manker...you are being deliberately provocative. I have stated once, and I will make it clear......There was no intent to belittle or humilliate anyone. No one was 'misled' intentionally or otherwise. You have been told many times that the mod tools are fucked but will not accept it. I can see that no matter what any of the mods or admin says, you will choose to believe in your demonisation of our motives.

Now please, how about we move on to something else?
