Lately ive noticed some over eager moderation on the site.

Grand Old Team has always been a site that has had some degree of self moderation, kopites and WUMs were always dealt with by the established members, the people whos foundation this great forum was built on. Recently certain established members have been treated like dirt and banned, whilst WUMs and kopites are allowed to wander free and wind up people without any sanctions given.

When a forum loses sight of its core values, it loses everything that made it what it is, im not sure whats going on, but it leaves a nasty taste in my mouth personally.

I just think certain people should have a think on about what they are doing and whether their actions help the forum as a community or whether they are just on a mad crazy power trip.

Thanks for reading.

Can't have it both ways...you posted this in the locked thread:

But ive reported about 10 people in this thread and they are all still here.

now you're saying:

It's only "over-eager" when the moderation doesn't go your way? If the mods just ban everyone you want banned, wouldn't that also be over-eager?

Bit of perspective, mate.

This thread could stir up some very meaningful debate. It's closure would possibly represent a descent into Nazism.

First of all.

Im not your mate, stop replying to me.

Second of all, maybe you dont understand humour, I dont report people, im not a grass, I deal with people my way.

Dont bother replying, I wont be clicking show ignored posts.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Agreed. Clamp down on the RS.

 

[terry nodder]

I propose all moderators change their job title to "Noderators" and do my bidding.

Personally I'd ban anyone who's never bought me a beer.

Thinking about it, I'd ban a few of those as well.
