At some point, Johnso29's heavyhanded moderating will result in less participation, which the forum owner won't appreciate.

Free Carl!

I propose a prisoner taking program.

Slowplay and clamp have had numerous pugilistic encounters. Let's ban Slow until Carl gets released. After all, this forum is soooooo important. Otoh, if Carl is banned for the reason above, let's just leave it alone for the lameness that it is.

My understanding is it's for exactly what Index said it was. Ludicrous reason. I also have it from a good source, that the ban is supposedly only for a few days. I guess they put Carl in time out! :eek: Sounds like somebody (not Carl) needs a nap... :D

So if it's a ludicrous reason then it sounds like he was banned for a reason other than the stated reason, eh?

Probably not. My guess is some words were exchanged via PM. I know for myself I complied with johnso's request but he still gave me a timeout. I called him a hypocrite for disallowing my tag line but allowing others like T-squares. No offense T!!! I then posted that I was about to be banned and to not anger the moderators. He used that post as his reason to ban me for being disrespectful. I really do think he may need a time out too!! Lol. I know moderating is not fun but showing bias is inappropriate.

When you go back in time, try looking for any posts that discredit Johnso. None exist. He erases them. At least with all the posts and participation on this current ban, it may be more difficult to erase the content this time.

I imagine the groundskeeper is having a chuckle today.

I didn't think Carl's comment was offensive. He's been calling johnso a union cheerleader for a long time.
johnso is a big boy. Surely he wouldn't ban Carl just for that. There must be more to the story.

If any of you have a problem with MY moderating, then start sending PMs to those in charge. For all of you that want to know, I issued Carl an ONE point infraction for flamebait. His past infractions added up to a ban. So his history, combined with this infraction is what resulted in a ban.

I'm not here to make friends. If any of you think you can moderate this forum better than I, then go ahead and volunteer. You can see how easy it is then.

I don't want Slow banned either and there isn't a reason to do so.

I don't want Tsquare banned either even after our incident the other day.

You sound like a kindergarten teacher. Where's the demerit schedule posted?

I'm sure you're scoring points with the ALPA overlords. Keep up the good work Komrad!

No one is forcing you to be a moderator. If you can't be fair you should resign. But you enjoy controlling the message too much, don't ya?

Then don't moderate if it's stressful, why bother. Take a break and come to this side of the fence.

johsno,

Bucking Bar in post 167996 "quoted" my post and inserted a picture of a kitten (he obviously has some weird cat fetish) as though I posted that picture. I called him out on it and he refused to correct what I thought originally was a mistake. Apparently it was intentional since he refuses to correct it.

This time it was a picture. Next time it may be adding words I never said. Is this acceptable Mr. Moderator?

What kind of action are you going to take johnso? Seeing how Bar is on of your "buds"?
