1. Don't throw fits of drama over petty corner cases
2. Mods can focus on actually moderating and making the website better instead of dealing with drama
3. ???
4. Profit!/Better MTGSalvation
It is just that simple. This conversation is not productive.
Poor guys just can't hold the fort and at the same time handle any criticism at all, just stop guys. post some ponies or some yomako hug smileys instead, don't you guys have any respect for the staff?

I do have information that its very tame these days because they are self-censoring themselves after being pointed out the hypocrisy of shitting on people behind closed doors after nuking a subforum for those same accusations, but that didn't seem to improve the thread, instead turning it into a cesspool of mediocrity just for mindless spamming.

Sorry Onar, but I can I have no respect for the morally corrupt people who banned a bunch of decent people just to cover their lies and are still patently incapable of reversing their illegitimate decisions almost one year after the ordeal.
Specially since they seem to have not learned anything with that debacle, and insist on making the same mistakes over and over again.

HAHAHAHA oh wowSene:
We infract and suspend people who can't engage in civilized discussion, which is why Belgareth, for example, though having always been a vocal opposer of stuff staff has done, has never been suspended or even infracted for it. Nor has Azrael. It's just when you decide to actually act up that you get sent away for a bit - because you're actively ruining **** when you do. Fueling drama with sarcastic, unpleasant bull****, backhand accusation and trolling, that's what'll get you a very deserved vacation.
As for the FoS clan, essentially they want to be the Gutter. They can't. So they need to conform to clan rules or find somewhere else, like you guys did.
When in doubt: blame gutter
When in doubt after gutters demise: Blame another group
and label them as gutter

(I personally would love to delete RLA first and then WCT shortly thereafter. But I think that might be a bit drastic since the problems don't seem to stem from the forum - it's how that forum is moderated. It just feels incongruent with what it's supposed to be about right now. Any change we could get back to that?)

I can answer that (since I was staff once upon a time too).
We used to share funny PM's from people raging over some infractions and (mostly) warnings, but it was just over the top stuff.
As for making fun of specific people, I can attest this did not occur at that time at all (like one year ago), even more "special" people like LogicX weren't made fun of at all.
my guess is that all this culture of making fun of users in hidden threads is something that is posterior to my resignation, and a byproduct of this "its not that we suck at managing the site, its that we are being constantly hounded and harassed by the evil userbase" mentality that took grip on the staff.

I find this at the very least offensive, if not outright insulting.
You were infracted for telling a joke in RLA. The rules are quite clear easy to understand in relation to that: Don't Do It.
You relationship with rivaltuna is more than enough to see that you hold nothing but contempt for him, to claim otherwise would be the height of insincerity.
For example:
"even his posts about Magic read like arrogant bragging" clearly demonstrates that you think his non-Magic related posts are at the very least 'like arrogant bragging', if not outright so.
To claim that someone you believe to be a braggart is an appropriate source of information, when your only supporting reason is a source you openly think is him bragging. Well, it's clear that you're either being factious, malicious, or both.
Now my piece is said, I shall take my leave. Any more of this
conversation would infect my brain.
PS: I looked into this just to see how valid your concerns were. During my investigation I stumbled on your clan's thread and might I say that I am absolutely disgusted by the things your clanmates were saying about rivaltuna and the attitude many of them seem to share (yourself included).
For shame! I'd certainly prefer the company of a 'braggart' over people who brew such bile and cowardice as to slander people behind their backs.

They are the first ones to disrespect the position of moderator by insisting in their corrupt behavior instead of reforming themselves or at least having the token decency of resigning given that most of them are so patently incapable."The position of moderator deserves respect" - moderators on votan's helpdesk
Since they seem to keep leading by "example", users accordingly don't treat them with the respect the position would in principle deserve. A Shocking concept I know.
