Flouncing

There are other explanations of this apparent phenomenom. Once a poster has been infracted, they're more visible, so more likely to get scrutinised. If they repeat the same behaviour, (as some for strange reasons feel they have to) then it can't be let go.

You've had 6 infractions between 2010 and 2016. Five from cojak (one on request), one from me. And one warning from me. I don't find that entirely convincing evidence that cojak is out to get you.

SY01 was convinced for a while I was out to get him (I wasn't), but I was happy to pander to his paranoia.

At the time, Admin decided that the overuse of norks was getting abusive - see this post for an example: https://forums.contractoruk.com/gene...hello-cuk.html

6 Infractions!!! Bloody amateur. 42 here.

SLEDGES!

Quantifiable across the entire board. It always been obvious that specific mods and specific posters get into disagreements that linger to the point the poster leaves. That clearly is what this thread is about.

You even admit that you use your position to gaslight suity ( which isn't hard and we all do it) but that is exactly what I am talking about. When a mod does it resentment builds in the poster against the board.

I'm guessing Suity and zeity must have had something like 100k posts between them now and they are gone.

What I always asked and was never told was why did this change happen. I never got an answer if it was an editorial top down business led decision. Or what was more likely that you migrated the server about 8 years ago and just fancies using the new functionality with a new team of moderators.

And on the subject of norks, Churchill and I complained about the bouncing ball advert for over a year causing problems in the office. Completely ignored.

Admin is a wimp. I usually pay extra for overuse of norks to abuse level.

Would you actually want to be a mod? Seriously.

Absolutely not but I believe they bring most of the problems on themselves and it's the board that eventually suffers.

Was there a page you can view posters sorted by post count?

How can you tell how many you've had?

About 50% of posters think they are too harsh. 50% of posters think they are too lenient.

If the board suffers then if that really an issue except for admin? It is not as if we pay money for it.

I miss Zeity, EO, eek, FG, Xeno, SallyAnne, CM, Churchill among many others.
