Used a @system subverse as a personal platform

I did do that and in hindsight was the wrong approach, I should have made a video and then stickied it.

Thank you. It's so rare nowadays for people to own up to their mistakes.

In view of this, I think it would be appropriate for you to at least temporarily lose moderatorship, if only to set a precedent of concrete consequences for misbehavior.

Put isn't our fucking baby sitter. He doesn't need to put mods in timeout for showing dissent. Thats exactly what reddit does. He called this 'malicious' editing of the CSS, which it clearly was not.

The admins have had an issue with users like THC for a while. I think they're making an example of him.

Should have been handled better, but admins needed to brush this one under the rug. Sticky was up for how long? Its already gone.

It's not for showing dissent, it's for using mod powers to push their message. Regardless of whether you agree with the content of the message, the method by which the message was propagated was -- by THC's own admission -- inappropriate.

Enforcing site policy is exactly what admins are for. Mods who abuse their power get demodded.

Do you notice, that while I'm getting two upvoats and you're getting two upvoats, I'm the only one getting two down votes?

That's because your ideals are weak, and you need to hide what I'm saying. We're not down voating you, because we want you to be heard. You have the freedom to share information.

I haven't downvoated anyone in this thread.

Well good on you.

Most on your side apparently don't agree with you on that.
