Denise, here's your warning... - Page 17

We have a longstanding policy here that if you're not contributing to the football board at all, you're not a productive member.

I just ran a cross-section of your posts, and you've talked less football in the last few months than ClearVision.

You yourself said you're just not passionate about football anymore. A quick glance at your posts suggest that if you're that narrowly focused on human interest stories and politics, there's better bulletin boards for you to frequent.

And before anyone comes running in screaming about how unfair this is, it's happened before. We've banned multiple people under this very same premise.

Perhaps he can change your user name to "hehislogical" as well. I as recall, you rather enjoyed that.

That comment didnt mean you personally, just everyone else in Raytown.

You may be the smartest individual in Raytown though, I dont know you personally, just from your posts...just like I know everyone else on here.

We can say anything we want about each other but when you get right down to it, everyone is different from their persona that they display here. MemyselfI is someones mom or grandma, much like hootie may be Huards bitch, and GoChiefs is someones son (I dont know who would be desperate enough to make that claim though) and Iowanian is someones friend (prolly the same person who claims GoChiefs as their kid)

Anyways...lets just all be friends and stop being hateful to one another

This is it in a nutshell. Duh-nese normally doesn't bother me in the least, because I stay out of the DC Forum. It's when she brings politics into an otherwise non-political thread on the Main Forum that I have a problem with. And it's not even the political theme that is a problem. It's the style she uses to post her views, which are to incite others into a flame war....the very definition of a troll.

I'm surprised so few people get that.

My goodness!

After reading this thread, I've decided that being a mod isn't all that great.

For what it's worth, I must say I believe today, and always have, that Mr. htismaqe is an excellent mod. Although I understand how some people can view this decision as "singling out" a poster, she was already "singled out". In fact, it's my opinion that she frequently "singles out" herself for her own reasons.

As Fred "Fried" Harris always said, If you don't want to attract lightning, don't carry a lightning rod.

htismaqe, I'm not hammering you about the job you've done as a moderator. I really have no reason to care one way or the other. My point is that we just went through three days of debating this whole thing. And I think that it would have been more fair to remind all posters of that standard and not just her. And it would have been better, IMO, to remind everyone that we will all be held to that standard and not just her.

By calling her out the way you did, I believe it only contributed to the personal acrimony and it enables those who are campaigning to get rid of her for reasons other than the one you warned her about.

Recxjake received this EXACT WARNING, from ME, not 6 months ago. And yes, he does talk about football.

Yes, yes he does, not on the level of a hardcore fan but he has made an effort.

I understand the want to address it in a non-specific way. It was my feeling that doing so wouldn't have accomplished what I felt needed to be accomplished. Unfortunately, gut feeling is the only thing I have to go on.

If that's the case, it's indeed unfortunate. However, I still strongly believe that I've helped her, not hurt her.

You've sent threatening PM's? You should stop that, because I don't think that's right. You should keep your poop stirring public.

Step up and I'll make you one. Otherwise, shut up.

Parker as a former mod I know you do an excellent job, don't sweat the turkeys.

Penchief is a regular, constantly posting his love of LJ.

You need a half-way point to sleep? I've got a basement.

You'll need to leave my mother alone though.

Wow. Excellent advice, FAX...er, eh....Mr. Harris.

Kotter, I've changed jobs again and I'm once again covering Sucks Falls. I may be up there first week of May. Want a beer?
