If for some reason, a mod and a poster disagree with each other, a moderator does have to remain impartial to personal opinions, if there is heated debates on specific topics that the mod might feel "attached" to?
Technically we are supposed to stay out of debates but sometimes we might get in a discussion but we won't cross the lines and take it personal to go off and maybe topicban cause we didn't like their response.
I understand that, and it sound normal, I just meant that how would anyone know a mod, might be frusterated with Rl stuff, and then get on the Computer, with a Hot-headed trigger finger like impression, and go on a ban spree...
I've never seen it happen.
And I'm pretty sure the mod who did it would be banned/demoted Lickety-split.
I'm with Flion on this. The mods have guidelines they themselves must follow and I'd imagine if one of them stepped out of line Jaerik or Scragg would intervene. Personally, if I were to receive some sort of serious reprimand for my actions from either of them, I would feel extremely shamed. I respect them way, way too much.

Yea, I'd rather not have the "talk" from either of them. Imagine what they would do to us publicly! You guys can already see the threads for PM's people write them.
I'd like to have my head and not have it stuck on a spike

I'm not even a mod but if I got a warning I'd probably feel the same way. With the old forum rules I oculd get away with a lot. But since things change I don't even test it anymore because I respect those two as well as the mods. IDK maybe just because I've been posting so long. I remember you guys before y'all worked for the man!

Hmmm...This addition has a lot of serious questions, so I'll throw a fun one out for all the mods.
For those of you who have traveled abroad, what countries have you visited, which is your favorite, and why? For those who haven't, which would you like to visit?

I was just curious, when there is a potential banning or any serious issues, do the mods get together and discuss the issues and then take action? Or is it in the hands of whoever is presented with the situation and they decide what to do?

If it's a clear breaking of the rules, we'll discuss it after initial action has been taken. Then we decide if the temp/perma ban is enough or too much.

B*tches don't know about my forum spammage on the forums when they first began hosting on the FFXIAH servers. :| Now look at my post count. Pff. :/ I still remember Megabyte's signature when these forums were hosted elsewhere. XD That would *not* have lasted long with the way things are, now....

Lies! You're right; I'm lying. Here's the deal:
Every month, Jaerik sends us a pixel of a picture, supposedly, of him.
We've been piecing it together obsessively each subsequent month.
That's the only motivation for our thankless job. :>
-edit- inb4 rush of people wanting to be mods
You mean to say you're not aware of his very easy to find facebook o_O

Edit: Don't be too jealous. They were all work trips.

You mean to say you're not aware of his very easy to find facebook o_O He has, what, 3 pictures? and for a VERY long while, it was only of a GROUP picture, in which you could barely make out his face or see his pixelated abs. The current headshot is nice but... he ain't smilin'. :<
He's very modest, and that makes us all very, very sad.

ACK! Now I'm super jealous! The only traveling I've done for work is to Denver, Boulder, San Fran, (possibly this July) San Diego, and of course, Dallas and Houston (but that's a given).

It seems to me that people feel like they're not getting all the answers they want when it comes to our moderation. In keeping with the new rule about more transparency, I'm giving you all a chance to ask your questions.
So ask your questions, and I'll answer them to the best of my ability. If it's not something from the last 24 hours, try to provide a link or at least a thread title.
This is not a free shot for you to attack me, and I don't recommend trying it.
