Staff moderation of Mafia games

[Ayaan]

Give me a few minutes to digest your post, sparklecat. This may call for a beer or two.

Ok, just ignore me when I say "Take a hike" then.

hey look that's neither friendly nor welcoming, oh man the modz are gonna burrrrrn ur ass

Hey Gawdzilla, since I imagine you're not going to read my WoT (which I really don't blame you for), I wanted to highlight this for you:

And for god's sake, can we try to avoid the 'if you don't like it, fuck off' sort of comments? I've only posted like, 10 times, sure, but I'm a member here too and I have a right to have my concerns heard and addressed fairly. Oblivion deserves that even more, with what she's put into this.

[Uselesstwit]

Just to make it clear, it's the style of moderation you guys have engaged in that has led me to decide ratz isn't the place for me. I'm saddened by all the us/them behavior between members, but it's the staff role in how this has played out that is really off the charts imo.

OK, bye.

Really? Oblivion has worked her butt off making the mafia game over her what it is. Her opinion is absolutely valid and her leaving is a big loss for us.

When this mess first started I was absolutely on ratz's side. Green tentacle should have been banned and bart needed a wake up call. Now it's looking like both sides are at fault. It really does seem like the mods are being overzealous. Maybe they feel they're protecting the community but it's definitely feeling heavy handed from where I sit.

I'm utter disinterested in the mafia games. If they're so important to you and you want to play uninterrupted, there's an obvious solution. Start your own forum.

Then go back to being disinterested and let the people this concerns try to work things out. I have never done anything on this forum that warrants being told to leave, but you're making my departure more likely with every one of your posts.

To be fair, I'm being equally dismissive of him. I'm just doing it more passive-aggressively, because that appears to be the acceptable way at Ratz to tell people to fuck off.
