Subject: RE: What did you guys do to muppet?

"If you think I lord things over people, you've been viewing my site with some sort of huge chip on your shoulder. I think from your perspective, nearly any deletion is lording things over people."

maybe worded badly. more simply: you like moderating. you like deleting stuff, and you like not having to explain it. you cant say that isnt true, you coudlnt live without it when you said you were dropping the forum.

"But to each their own. Compared to the sites everybody CAME from in the first place, the moderation on MBM is practically nonexistent."

not compared to the old Blood Forum, but i get your point :)

"But you can keep painting me as a bad person all you like. I'm quite secure enough to not be bothered by it in the least. :)"

good. you make my internet life 3000% less boring

"The only reason this incarnation of the blood forum isn't full of shock photos and flame wars is that you're all in your 20s now, not because of some zen philosophy of moderation. "

could be, i'll go 50/50 on it. all that aside you DO antagonize people with your mod powers. be it by arbitrary deletions (yes some are justified by your set of rules, some are not), or making fun of people who dont take it well, purging, the little ticks you set up (helping dumb animals, pan handling, etc...), stragecically approving posts, keeping your dumb approval system so you control everything thats posted like a nazi.
