Sounds like a dumb question doesn't it?
Yet at /v/videos we find our selves under attack from some PV users because we refused to throw out the community chosen rules and replace them with stricter rules chosen by one guy.
Have I taken crazy pills?
They have even threatened that Atko would get involved. Are they on drugs? Atko was the one that told us to not be power-mongers.
We're doing what he asked; what the community wants.
I have long supported PV. But if this community has decided to abandon it's anti-power mod stance, then I'll have to reconsider.
I will not be a power-mod. I will not force arbitrary rules on a community that doesn't want them.
There is no team of mods on this site that is more open, transparent, and approachable than we are. What more do you expect?
If anyone is not happy with the current ruleset, all they need to do is start a community dialogue, and we will do as the community wishes.
If someone thinks they can force us to change rules, without consent from the community, by harassing or threatening us, they are wrong.
If PV is going to start supporting trolls who want arbitrary anti-community rules chosen by them alone, then we no longer value the PV communitys opinion.
I suggest you all review the sidebar here.
@kevdude - You've been silent on this. Enjoying the popcorn and show? How about weighing in.

smail is a part of the sub. spamming it does affect the sub, and users, since it takes one of the very useful tools out of service. Users can talk back all they want, that doesn't break a rule.
That's right. So why tell us to change the rules?
We've stated many times our willingness to do as the community wishes. And told ya how to do it.
