The post that was quoted here has been removedDude. Whether you find it offensive, does not effect my opinion, or the opinion of others. I find it quite offensive that you seem to think it's ok to dictate what we are allowed to think, and whether or not we should voice this opinion in open forum.
"Basically, you're all accusing the site owners of not considering seriously who they chose as a Forum Moderator"
Pretty close to the mark, what about it ?

Here's what I want. 1) I want all the names of forum moderators listed somewhere. 2) Any time a post is moderated, I want that moderator responsible for it to send a message to the person who posted it and tell them why it was moderated. 3) I want the moderator to post why it was moderated in the forum.
Let's have a little transparency and openness in this process.

Originally posted by kirksey957So there can be a pointless and immature debate over why it was modded? Come on Kirk, if a post is modded it's because it broke guidelines set out in the ToS. If someone is modded and disagrees with the moderation they should take it up either by sending feedback, or PM to one of the mod team.

Making this place more of a kangaroo court than it already is does nobody any favours.

The post that was quoted here has been removed[/b]I think you'll see, if you actually look, that most people here are not being disrespectful, we're voicing our opinion in a fair and level headed fashion, and not breaching the TOS in any way.....unless you take into consideration the poster that is throwing accusations, and making false allegations of "Disrespectfulness to the Moderation team".
Originally posted by kirksey957I don't see how what you propose would be the solution. I'm not even sure what the problem really is. People talk about unfair moderation like it's a commonplace occurrence, but I'll wager that the majority of those cries of outrage are either made by TSM and associates (and thereby pertains to their dislike of 3 mods in the PFC and not to the issue of fair moderation), or by people who's posts are actually modded properly and just don't get it. Either way the problem is neither any worse than it used to be and certainly won't be solved by a public sharing of the mods' decisions.
