I report everything I see that needs it. That doesn't change the fact that some people deliberately say things to people to get them in a frenzy.

i never said i was perfect and i never report or rep people over shit like that.
ever.
Becoming a mod shouldnt mean the complete absence of an opinion.
as long as i never use the mod powers to act on my opinion there isnt a problem.
Hey guys it would also help if wehad a debate section thathad a simple math check before they post to be sure the person posting isn't drunk.
this needs to be coupled with action. people make posts like this because;
A) rep
B) lulz
if your going to infract/detain/ban some members, you'd better be prepared to do it to the "cool kids" too.
^ with a little counter that tells us how many people have failed the test, just for luls.
seriously though, im in full agreement with lag's post. i actually avoided posting in that wikileaks thread because i just couldnt tell who was trying to piss people off and who was being serious, and i didnt feel like dealing with a bunch of people telling me im wrong because my perception of the situation. its been like this with quite a few other debate threads too, to the point where i just dont click on them anymore because theyre all filled with the same shit: people belittling other people because their opinion is different.
E: with icee on this one. seems like older members get away with sarcasm and troll posts alot more than other members do. you know who you are.
Good think I lock my own debate threads before they get out of hand. :downs:
Higher standard !=noyour opinion
So you don't think that mods should be model users? And if a mod/admin is acting genuinely bad, its ok for other follow in their foot steps? Sure its my opinion, but generally speaking, people of authority are held to higher standards and scrutiny than the gen pop.
Conversely, opinion != bad
