Not "on" here much lately, so was unaware of the CALL for new mods.

I am happy for Setanta to fill that role as I have always found him to be a reasonable person. As for Big Vic, that is OK too, as I don't have much to do with this forum anymore.
I get sick of being the target of men who hate women who have their own lives and opinions. Very tiresome, but I didn't complain and NO MOD did anything about it.

So Setanta and Big Vic.. a question for you both.

IF a person is being trolled and abused re their views and gender and age, does that person HAVE TO COMPLAIN.?

Do the Mods only pay attention to the "squeaky wheels"?"

Personally I really don't get bothered by the abuse, it means nothing except to expose the abusers for the turds they are ...... I just find it difficult to continue posting when all I get is ridiculous comments from some posters in reply. It gets boring and takes away any credibility the topic may have had at the start. It degrades the forum into an opportunity to abuse people, sadly.

So?? Must I complain about this before the Mods notice?.

I have asked FD to respond to me on one topic, on the record, but was ignored. Should I have PM 'd him about his failure to respond.? When I wanted it on the record for all who bothered , to see.?

Wouldn't mind a reply from someone.

Good post, Emma.

And may I also add my congratulations to Setanta and BigVic for their elevation to the Pantheon of the Gods?

Worthy choices in my opinion.

Thanks for your reply Setanta. I can understand that there are many many posts, and it would be impossible to cover them all.

As I said, I am not really bothered by these posters, who shall remain nameless , for now.

I do wonder tho, whether my penchant for renaming some of them to amuse myself, and maybe have a dig, is considered abuse.
I'll give you an example

A goodie IMHO, Aquascoot .. I call him Cootie, now, after much to-ing and fro-ing.

Or
Panther.. whom I have just started calling pussy.

I think its amusing ... what do you think?

Sorry, but these contravene 18c of the Sh!t-stirring Act.

I think it's the least a mod should do if they are going to ban someone. It's ridiculous this shroud of secrecy that fd imposes on why people have been banned. Sometimes 'viewing your last 10 posts' just doesn't cut it.

Quite so.

And PLEASE stop using the term 'banned' for 'suspended'.

Well, I am an honest person, so I'll say what I think. Setanta, while being a good Poster most times, has let himself down on others, and posting male genitalia was one of those times which was a deal breaker (GMod wise) for me. He is now vulnerable to those I need not name posting similar, and if, as he ought, he acts, they will rightly call hypocrisy. I have other reasons I'll keep private because I ought, so, Setanta while I'd love to give you the kiss of death with my endorsement, I can't, and you know why.

I also should add that Setanta has helped me out big time on matters only he knows about, and he knows I am grateful for, and hugely appreciative of that. Without the assistance he willingly gave me, I would have struggled on a project.

I just cannot support this decision, however. Sorry.

Hypocrisy much? You never fail to deliver.

Anyway, I discovered this morning some time around 2am I was a gmod. No I did not put my hat in the ring beyond saying if you get stuck for one I'll consider it. Y'all have to live with it now as do I, I've become a cat herder. Grin

Setanta will be ok IMO (even though I think he's a tad weird).

As for Aussie's comments .. □ <------ here's a small tissue Roll Eyes

one of which I said go ahead and use it in the forum.

Nah. Check back and read your PMs.

I must have killed it but I'll post my own parts of my PMs to you so all can see it's been fully explained.

Quote:

It's not up to me who is worthy Aussie. I had no hand in the decision. Sure I could quit, that does not mean it will be given to those who nominated themselves. I am now privy to the discussion thread but was not before today. You want me to breach that confidentiality? I won't.

Would you like me not to be GMod? Perhaps X or X that I put forward when they approached me. FD for reasons I can read now, chose for some reason to make me a mod. I didn't nominate myself and I'd be happy not to be and getting these PMs asking me to justify myself and others decisions and I have only excercised my powers in a mistake modification of one of Sprints posts. You have the truth, I've told you how it went down, live with it.

Quote:

If you think I put my name forward when they asked, I assure you I did not. They contacted me at the beginning of last month and asked, I said nah, not really, but I suppose if you get really stuck I'll consider it. I had heard no more until I was not a mod one sec and a mod the next with extra buttons that I have to be extremely careful about.

Either way you want to take it, that's about how it happened.

Is that out in the open enough for you?

Christ...what's this nonsense all about?

If I were you Setanta, I would have just told him to bugger off.

It's what I always do if/when Aussie crosses the line.

And it works quite well too.

Oh and Aussie...here's another small tissue for you ----> □

Could be worse cods!

Could be BigOl

haha not for me....bigvic thinks I am the curse of ozpol.. he hates me says I am the worst abuser on the forum...he has said it more than once so I know he means it..

couldnt be plainer than that could he???>>.

I am hoping you dont agree with him..

I do not hate you at all - I don't hate anyone. Volunteers were called for as GMs - I volunteered. I figure if there are things about something that you do not like or agree with, then make your position known and if people agree with what you have put forward then so be it..

Having said that, I agree that I have posted that you are one, if not the worst, abuser of people on this board - frankly, it was your constant abuse and denigrating of people that led me to put my name forward. as a GM. You also would have had an opportunity to nominate as well - I hope you did.

I have been a victim of your abuse and frankly I am not going to take it anymore. Your constant abuse of people, telling all and sundry that people - because of political persuasion - enjoy people dying in roofs or being smashed against rocks at Christmas Island is not in keeping with normal community values or thinking.

I have declared to the GMs as part of my submission that I have had issues with you in the past regarding abusive behaviour - you yourself know that because you have been banned because of it.

Therefore, I request you do not try and bait me, nor abuse me further - it won't work. Should I find you have been abusing me or going outside what is acceptable behaviour on this board towards me

, in order to keep impartial- I will take whatever evidence I have with my recommendations to another GM for consideration.

I can't believe how you used this post to target and threaten Cods.

All it has achieved is expose just how unhinged you are.

Being a GM is not about getting power/control to threaten those you don't like/don't get on with. But you don't get that.

And next time you read your posts, proof read them against the standard of IRONY AND HYPOCRISY before pressing that enter key.

Got that?

Just so you know, your own targeted trolling and abuse of certain members will also be monitored and reported to FD.

At all times.

PS I have reported your disgusting post to FD!
