|
|
As an objective observer of this forum I am asking myself why it's tolerated that majkinetor's postings are deleted/censored while Kosovo(a)'s postings are allowed to stay much longer. Moderators should do their job: moderating, not provoking anonymously.
Also I wonder why people who have enjoyed and profited from majkinetor's work don't raise their voice against that.
You are about to lose one of your most valuable members.

You have no proof that any moderator has been posting anonymously. I would find it insulting if I was held responsible for racist remarks made by somebody else in a debate even if they appeared to be siding with my judgement.
Certain behaviour will not be tolerated on this forum due to AutoHotkey's appeal to people of all ages and backgrounds. Chris would not like the website to receive negative attention or be blacklisted as political or offensive. We must also have the moral sense of duty to respect the privacy of other individuals by refraining from hate speech and false accusations. For these reasons certain posts are removed and the authors will certainly know why.
I understand you are upset that particular messages were removed quicker than others. This is not due to favouritism - at the moment there are very few moderators and vetting all posts can take quite some time. Not every spammer glamorises their post like others do - and when the message becomes hidden under numerous replies it can slip past our watch. Rest assured they will be removed eventually; in the particular instance today they were all removed within the hour.
Without naming names I personally feel the entire recent commotion has been due to one or two people and in an ideal world we would just ignore it. Sadly threads like this complicates things and puts an otherwise terrific and mature community in bad light. _________________

But, instead of to talk about someone - I favour to talk with someone. Well, that's only possible with those who don't leave ...  |

Actually, I was hasty with my reply.
I care and I'm sure others do, too. But, I am not going to try to convince him to stay.....he needs to make that decision himself. Now there has been alot of remarks being thrown around AT EVERYONE involved. It all just needs to let be. Let by-gones be by-gones and leave it at that. If Maj would like to continue being a contributor to this community, then great! If not, well, there is nothing anyone can do about it.
It is pretty pointless though for ALL OF US to act like children here. We need to get this situation under control and it WILL benefit all of us. _________________
