Yes, because you practically get to redefine what's 'antagonistic' based on your own preferences and tastes. Never mind, I'll simply make it such that you'll have less chance to abuse your power.
How are we redefining what's antagonistic? There is such a thing as a dictionary. My own preferences and tastes? I think deciding what's antagonistic and what isn't is pretty cut and dry...flame/bash/troll, these things are all obvious to the staff and even the majority of the members here.
I am not targeting you specifically. Nor am I targeting MJ3 - he was a fair moderator.
There are taken from the Naruto forum. Apparently, there are people who constantly accused me of writing 'nonsense' and 'ridiculous claims' using a mocking tone, but obviously these are not antagonistic, right?
Yes, usually something would not be considered as 'antagonistic' unless you personally insult someone.
And yes, I am aware that they'll simply back each other up. That's why I would rather write here than using private messages in which there is zero transparency.
In a heated argument usually it's inevitable that the tones get aggressive. That's part of a heated argument.
thats not a reason my friend , unless you actually tend to post agressive comments .
there is no way you can know that , such statments are not gonna make people think differently of what said before .
Rules are twisted, why would you think I am complaining?
You are basically telling me to shut up about possible abuses or get off the forum? Why thank you. How about no? Private messaging is simply an excuse to get people to shut up in public - who knows what you'll be doing behind closed doors?
That's one view on it. I'd say they aren't set in stone. We always see the whole picture which results in different decisions at times.
Your welcome. If there is abuse, how about pointing it concrete out? All you do at the moment is gossip instead of actually reporting the abuse in question, so we can handle it.
That's your problem. We're not a goverment you need to conspirate against. If you can't trust the voluntary staff of a mere manga fan forum to the point that you need to bring up complot theories, I can't help you.
Timezones? Different mods?
Again, I can't do *anything* without concrete complains on concrete moderators and concrete situations. This is so far just a ungrouded complain without any backup.
I'll send you the name just so you wouldn't say my accusations are baseless. I can also point out a lot of posts in the forums that has aggressive tones on it but was ignored. Finally, I can point out at least one instance where someone was bashing, in which I reported it and it was ignored.
