Why don't you step away for a while longer, so we can all look into the matter some more? Your contributions to the study would be greatly appreciated. Don't be so passive aggressive old timer.

I feel that there are a lot of smart people, but also a lot of dumb people. If you ban the dumb people, then we would have an awesome site here. lol, if we ban the dumb people the smart ones will all just sit here puzzled about what to do dumb people are the life blood of a forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxman Posted January 5, 2019 Author Share Posted January 5, 2019 1 hour ago, Spoot-Face said: @Maxman Are we allowed to privately inquire about how many reported posts we've received. I'm curious. Not really, about 60% of the reported posts are bad. At least half are bad. The system is in place, and we appreciate when people use it the right way. So if you don't have a note from a mod asking you privately to knock it off, chances are you are in good standing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxman Posted January 5, 2019 Author Share Posted January 5, 2019 42 minutes ago, Warfish said: I want to be clear, my original post was in reaction to a very specific post today, and was probably too harsh. More than most, I damn well know how hard it is to Mod a large community. I STILL get abused over it now, years later by people who have no idea what trying to do so and do so fairly is like, especially as (like here) a voluntary Mod. It's hard and thankless, end of story. And let me be clear, Max and Co. do a damned good job, they do, period. My post was because a single, specific, post I found way over the top seemingly had gone unnoticed, but as Max says, they don't make everything public, and I trust him, so be it. I honestly was trying to help, I have full faith in Max to run this site as he's always done. And if I screwed up that effort with my well-intentioned feedback, all I can say is I'm sorry to him. Beyond that, all I can say is I agree, they're has been way too much racism lately, and I too hope it stops. Let's talk Jets. Nothing more from me. Thanks man. Like I said in my earlier post, I regretted my post the second I made it. I deleted it but I shouldn't have posted it. We do welcome feedback it is just that a few things I felt I was being called out on weren't accurate. I should have responded better. Yesterday really set me off here, the week in general. So many racist posts. But a lot of people were rightfully banned. So hopefully things are headed in a better direction. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realize that this is not a federal court, but all should be showed some measure of grace.... IMHO Where was the measure of grace when I paid the hosting bills the months we had no ads? This is a free site, we aren't selling anything here lol. There is plenty of due process. 99.99% of the time, we ask people to not break a simple rule right after they have broken a simple rule. When someone gets banned, we don't generally IP ban them. When someone gets banned, we spend NO time at all trying to figure out their new alias. Why? Because we believe in second chances. Seems like a pretty due process to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which not coincidentally is what makes for good content in the first place. Here's the thing, though; if you have a joke or a point that might get you in trouble with your boss, dragged in front of HR, or sent to sensitivity training, we also don't want to hear those jokes or points here. It may not be in the official rules, but that's only because it should be common sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
