Ha, I said others, probably most, but not all.

I think the better answer is better for business and it would stop threads like this and others in the like.

If everyone remembered this is a family forum, that would be best.
I think the worst thing a kid should see/read here would be a feeding post and nothing more. But that's just me.

Did I say you were? I was speaking to you. You'll notice this is how your conversation with KMG started. I realize it was just a dodge on the IP addressing thing though :gj:

You all really should drop this.
You'll notice I have an infraction myself. And, admittedly I earned that. A case of hitting "submit post" before thinking it thoroughly through. I will say though, the person I had a go at did not receive any infraction/warning despite having on several prior occasions being very hostile and harassing, neither did the person that threatened physical violence and openly admitted doing so in a thread obviously monitored as Mods stated they were monitoring it and later locked and removed. Without excuse I was wrong and deserving of my reprimand. It does seem fishy that identical instances by others do not result in comparable consequences.
Clearly, either rules are not being applied consistently or, certain individuals have some form of diplomatic immunity. Perhaps, you could try buying more shirts.

No amount of discussion is likely to change how things either are or appear to be. It will just become more adversarial as it continues.
What does exist is an opportunity for improvement.
In suggestions of things like a moderator feedback thread that allows user to post but, mods to read. This would allow a user to present why they believe a judgement was in error and then allow the mods to discuss it amongst themselves without adding unpleasant threads and clutter to the site.
And, a link to that thread and the ToS in official mod related mails to users.
It could be used for positive feedback as well. For instance DrDel has given me a warning and was wonderfully professional. There is a prime candidate for mentoring new Mods.

If such a thread is created just a word of advice. Your Mods are just people like yourselves and capable of having an off day just like anyone else. It can be a thankless job and, mixing that with an off day can lead to a heavy-handed call. So, take a day or two giving both yourself and the person in question time to cool jets and then make your case.

This is ridiculous..

There needs to be a rule about being a complete d-bag.

That is all I want.

We do have the Reputation Thread but its not exactly what you suggested but its a start.

My only problem is I feel it was a bit of an over reaction to what was said. However, I get that a leadership decision was made and it's poor form to contradict your staff. That's management science 101.

Its five points and I now have a different definition of the QT room. That's what I take from this. Blaming the next one up on the totem pole is only satisfying until the next time you need to blame them.

Infraction! Infraction over here!

See? No one cares.

I love Jurassic Park.

Well you all have fun, I'm off to spend time with my wife and kid.
We all need to realize there is a thing you can do before you hit "Submit Reply" and that is to think about what you are posting. I delete and edit a lot before you all get to see it.
Good night everyone.

I didn't dodge, I informed you of the rules. How you choose to handle them and the actions you take are yours and yours alone. You can change your IP and create another account but IF I remember right, its a permanent ban. That is your choice.
