Shiney and Meister, you went about all this in a self-confessedly underhanded way and it would've been a lot better to hash your disagreements with Fifth out in the mod forum like we've always tried to do prior to this. For being so concerned with fairness this kinda feels like you guys making personal dislike into policy. On the other hand, Fifth, you do have a tendency to get really hostile right off the bat that makes discussing differences in moderation with you an unpleasant prospect, and anyone who can laugh at himself over Going Nuklear is self-aware enough to try to get a grip on this. Brian, I don't think you handled this super-well but it's kind of a lot to have dumped on you in the middle of everything else that's going on and I'm sorry I haven't been able to help out like I should. I could see how maybe Bells was being a bit of a backseat mod, but a long-term member in good standing like he is didn't deserve banning for it. Nightwhatever wasn't being more than usually misogynist for this place, but he did deserve an infraction for it and if I'd been the one to catch it, that's what I'd have done.

Basically all of this is right.

Holy fucking shit, seriously, this whole goddamn ugly mess. Thanks for dragging my name into a clusterfuck I had no idea was going down, by the way, plus super thanks to everyone who's implied I haven't said anything due to, I dunno, queenly indifference instead of A. working a job with a two hour commute B. almost a thousand miles away from Brian and C. having been less and less involved with the forums for a long while now, partially to avoid messes like this.

Queenly what?

I will say again and again, the forums own, they're pretty much the best now that they've ever been, (the fact that this much

isn't true and hasn't been in a while now is the best proof of that I can think of), it would amazingly suck if the people running it now want to cut it loose because they don't see that.

?

I'm just saying here but in the times I went through the thread pages just now and Control-Fed "Mash" it came up, like, three times, and I'm pretty sure each instance was referring to "Mashirosen" as a mod, or "Brian or Mashirosen as the highest appellate court."

I referred to her as Lydia somewhere in there.

Cause it just seems kind of weird all the time to write "Brian and [retarded internet name]".

I also mentioned her in a PM to Brian, and some of what she was saying seemed to have to do with the mod forum specifically, so maybe there was more calls for her to take sides there, but seriously, it's time to just move on for at least awhile.

Assuming Shiney follows through with a full reply/discussion like he said he would, we can go back to arguing with him then. Or not. Depending on what he says. And if he doesn't, though I think he will because well, why wouldn't he after saying he would? We can raise some hell in a few days or something. Rar rar blow shit up blah blah blah.

At this point, however, I don't think splitting hairs or whatever is really the best thing to be doing.

EDIT: Eh Krylo's right again, deleting this one. It isn't anything bad but it's really really unnecessary talky-talky. Just gonna go back to what I was doing, IE, keeping quiet.

Also also:

Just repeating information, but I was told he was banned for numerous infractions with warn-inducing backseat modding being the last straw.

And, see, if everybody showed this kind of wisdom, we'd all be better off.

Indifference!

That's when you did not.

If by "better off" you meant, "Dead in a crater" then yes.
