Don't question the mods! They will hear you! They are watching; always watching...


But more seriously, no. They seem fine enough, just don't give them a reason to come after you.

I asked for 1000 Cats to be deleted, so you should be complaining about corrupt admins, not mods. The mods just did what I requested. Anyway, the relevant thread is here.

Wow the God of this forum has descended.
It is an honor.

Is it really worth using a proxy just to come here and complain about getting da boot.


There might be something in that but given Cats was deleted three-ish days ago I think not.

Most people who end up DoS do so because they get carried away. FST is the classic example.


FST was banned?

I always believe that the moderators know what they're doing. Yep, just stay passive and don't do anything stupid.

[violet] posts in General?

I do not like that thread, mainly because of this.

Mods, admins, they're close enough. Especially when people use [violet]'s warning for flaming as being evidence of their non-corrupt nature.

Truly. A personal request for deletion from [violet] him/herself is an honour, and very frightening. I had to step back just to remember that he only has this power on the forum, and not in real life!

That's pretty much the end of it.


From what I heard the first time the link he posted had confidential info on it so it was deleted, but he said he edited it to post again and thought it would be OK.

Holy shit, the thread summoned [violet]...how do you genuflect in a post?
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

I have never found the mods unreasonable. There are rules on the forum. These rules are common sense, widely advertised and are pretty damned lenient to begin with. There are always a few people who just can't seem to get their heads around them though. Breaking the rules doesn't make you edgey, alternative or 'an individual', nor is it your intrinsic right to be 'free'. The NS game/forums have been provided free of charge for your entertainment. The least you can do as a user is respect the people who run it. Being 'popular' on the forums does not give you a free pass to disrespect the good folks who give up their time to police the content of these boards.
