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.
In suity's early days, I teased him as he seemed obsessed with me having a vendetta against him, and couldn't figure out I was taking the piss by, e.g. changing my avatar to V for Vendetta. Eventually we sorted it out (not long after this post from 2010), and he is still here. https://forums.contractoruk.com/gene...oing-perm.html
I know that Zeity left because he took umbrage at me. I implied I thought he was a bigot. He called me a twat. I did not hound him, and in fact quite liked him as a poster. He got one infraction from me back in 2012, and has never been banned. He did not leave due my moderation activities. He left, ostensibly, because my thread postings he found personally too offensive to cope with any longer.
Sorry ministrone, the narrative you are trying to create does not fit the facts.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment

Originally posted by NotAllThere View PostI've just checked all Churchill's posts for which he was banned over the years. Only in 3 out of 15 have the posts been removed. The rest of the time, they were edited. Here's his first ban: https://forums.contractoruk.com/gene...tml#post372015Comment

Originally posted by WTFH View PostNo, but it was partly as a result of that, which caused Admin to ask me to become one.

If it helps - my opinion of you has not changed from before you were a moderator to nowComment
