It's an interesting study in sociology though to watch exactly how a myth is formed through the telling of one lie and the propogation of that lie through the use of others.
Another interesting study in sociology, is to observe how serious people can take an internet messageboard.
It will make you want to laugh, cry, shake you head in disbelief and leave you with a nice feeling that to you it is just a messageboard, but to others it is a serious business.

Dont worry MadUnit you werent included in the suspected Mods.
It was not thought for a second that you youd be a gutless fugg & leave the blame for the 3 other mods to take.
Only a low life, piece of scum would not own up to it.
Like I said, everybody knows that frenzy & the admins have issues. Nobody is going about defending or criticising the banning.
But the way in which it was done could only be performed by a pea hearted nobody.

I'll make it easy for Mod.

My alias is___________. I am a mod.
I asked willow to ban the duck(frenzy) because______________________________.

Just fill in the blanks.

blacktip-reefy, Is there a reason why you think you can call moderators gutless scum? That is, without having all the facts in your possession.
To say you're treading a fine line is an understatement.

Now I'll make it easy for you....

The ultimate repsonsibility for all actions falls back on the site owners. The buck stops here.

We welcome input from others and listen to any suggestions, complaints etc. We also encourage members to use the discussion forums for their enjoyment.

But at the end of the day, we make the decisions as to what happens with our site.

Anything else beyond that is pure speculation.

I dont think I did.
I call a person who leaves others out to dry, just that. Mod or not.

As my post says, I have no issue with ithe banning, other than the way it was handled.
It has implicated about 3 mods & 5 members.
Until the person admits to it & for their reasons, it will look exactly as it sits.

I say it, everybody thinks it.

ban me if you want, I'm just trying to clear the air so I get back to hating people & bagging braindead posts.

FTR i was sick to death of the duck. I am glad its gone. I just hope we dont have to put up with a pig now.

How do you know that? Because you saw them online?

Just because you see moderators visiting the forum doesnt mean that they are involved in some conspiracy. It doesnt even mean they are here in the forums.
Unless you have CCTV set up in every household, you have no idea what they are doing. Throw in the ability for people to hide their online presence and all of a sudden, you really are in the dark.

At best, looking at people's online presence is an unreliable source of information.

People seem to imagine that by seeing a user name pop up or go away they are literally tracking someone's movements.
I know that there's a better than even chance that you have a computer turned on somewhere - but even this is not conclusive.
I see names on the forum here today but for all I know, you all might be having bath.

If you don't mind me saying, this is one of the problems. There's far too much guess work and finger pointing going on.

Action was taken because of what was happening in the forums (not on msn... I do not take action because of things being said on msn).
I never mentioned who the mod was and I didnt even say if it was a Sharks moderator.
And I'm not going to divulge that information.
I'm a little surprised that someone decided to make an issue of that minor detail.
I'm the one who flicked the switch following what was deemed to be a valid complaint. As I said, the buck stops here and everything after that is pure speculation.

I only thought it appropriate to clear Fizman because you quite obviously had the wrong end of the stick.

Personally, I can't see what the fuss is all about. My friendly advice is that you stick with talking about things you know about. Try sport.

Cheers.

No.
There are a lot of annoyed people right now.
& dont worry, I wont be divulging either. That buck stops with me.

The opportunity was there, to clear the air.
& I feel sorry for Fizman because in the end, he is the one, holding the stick when the lights came on.

FTR I dont think that Fiz was responsible.

LOL.. that's allright mate, I'm not interested about you divulging names. Trust me, I'm a million miles away from getting involved in that little hoo har.
Why are they annoyed? Because they want all the gossip or because they have convinced themselves of certain 'truths'. :lol:
Sorry, I shouldn't laugh but surely there's more enjoyable things to get hyped up about.

Look mate, I'm do my best to help you out if this dilemma and bring about peace in our time.

I already mentioned that fizman wasn't involved. I only said this because someone clearly had the wrong end of the stick.... victims of their own gabs.

Jemima Puddleduck was known to admin as being Frenzy from very early on. This is common knowlege amongst many moderators.
It seemed like such a desperate move from Frenzy to make posts, that we let it slide.

I was alerted to an issue with the Duck turning into a Goose... and as an admin, I moved in to sort it out.
Suffice to say, Frenzy has broken enough rules on these forums to get banned a hundred times over. Most of this has been lost in the dark reaches of the forums and quite a bit has been deleted for various reasons.

Now, I'm pretty sure that most forum administrators don't give this much of an explanation when dealing with troublemakers. I like to think that we're a little more open that most... but I hope you appreciate that I'd rather not go into any more detail.

So lets move on eh?

Cheers.
