why I wouldn't abuse mod "power"


Posts: 2504

 I wouldn't abuse power, mods don't have real power

only the owner has power, the mod only has volunteer work

all power is an illusion, the only thing mods do is play a role given by the owner.

a mod has Less power than the regular member because more is expected of them, and so they cannot do the same things a regular member can.

the only thing mods have, is a responsibility and the ability to help.

mods don't even have respect around here 

therefore the only thing a mod has is the ability to help.

I wouldn't abuse power, mods don't have real power

The 'power' of a mod is more through example as a matter of consistency. It's what they do over so much time that forms what's expected of them, what they can and can't get away with, as we saw for instance once Ed was modded. 

What makes them have power isn't what they can do, but rather what they could do and won't. Once they act on that power it stops being power at all, as we'd see with Luna's banhammer sprees. If the audience here finds even one weakness in their staff they'll prey on it, as you've already seen bored users try to do, and based on your past reactions here I'm not so sure if it'd be a good fit for you. 

Mods could probably get away with a lot more than what they're doing, but as a matter of self-discipline it appears otherwise, as it should

all power is an illusion, the only thing mods do is play a role given by the owner.

If it pushes someone then even the illusions have tangibility.

that wasn't real modship. is the mod can't moderate themselves they cannot moderate the site and are no longer a moderator as they cannot be moderate.

i can deal with it. I am willing to take the bullshit. I already know what would happen. I thought a long time about it. it's worth it.

It is power when it could stand to destroy the website that others count on being here for one reason or another. 

Destruction is easy but risks cannibalism, Harmony is difficult but is the path towards longevity, and this place is trying to strike a balance between them.

You've gone off the handle on this website multiple times though, trying to target multiple users while threatening to dox them if not working with others who could. 

You've even tried to enlist me in this multiple times. 

Mods could probably get away with a lot more than what they're doing, but as a matter of self-discipline it appears otherwise, as it should

i wouldn't do anything

Then why would you be mod if you plan on doing nothing? Are you even needed then?

So this is you wanting attention then, an excuse to be poked and bitched about? 

My guess is that you're looking for a distraction over your husband's suddenly newfound freedom.

even Blanc didn't destroy the website, even Luna.

They left holes in the data we still can't fix now, especially Luna. 

Also judging your idea of who is and isn't mod, I'm not sure if you pay enough attention to the goings on here to not accidently make mistakes from the wordplay of others aiming to push you. 

as we'd see with Luna's banhammer sprees. If the audience here finds even one weakness in their staff they'll prey on it, as you've already seen bored users try to do, and based on your past reactions here I'm not so sure if it'd be a good fit for you.

i never doxed anyone, more encouraged doing, ever, Because I had the self control not to.

You aren't innocent's my point, and I wouldn't even be going on about this degree of it if you weren't using it to boast. 

You at many points would have likely doxed if you had the information in your hands, and the sheer number of threats I've seen you do towards multiple people has me thinking you're not as pure as you want to see yourself. 

Considering the nature of the website that's not unexpected, but it does make your idea of being the 'one who has never done anything' suspect when you've threatened to do so multiple times, enough so to rub people the wrong way and demand their own retaliation, something you've used to try to play the victim. 

Mods could probably get away with a lot more than what they're doing, but as a matter of self-discipline it appears otherwise, as it should

Then why would you be mod if you plan on doing nothing? Are you even needed then? 

by not doing anything I meant not doi anything bad and you know that

Which things would be bad again? 

It's so easy to do a bad thing while thinking it's good, like the crusade vs Jim on SC4. 

all power is an illusion, the only thing mods do is play a role given by the owner.

If it pushes someone then even the illusions have tangibility. 

 not really. people here see mods as nothing but things to poke at and bitch about

So this is you wanting attention then, an excuse to be poked and bitched about? 

no, so this is me understanding mod is not glamorous

Then why do you even want it? You haven't made your reasons for desiring it clear if it's not for 'the attention'. 

When your being in a mod position changes nothing positively and opens up weaknesses towards the website and the rest of the staff itself, what reason is there to bring you in? 

My guess is that you're looking for a distraction over your husband's suddenly newfound freedom. 

 ??????? this is a random attack????????? he's always been free and this i. completely unrelated, are you just trying to get my goat? how professional

Lets just say that Spatial saying you wouldn't become mod, while being 'polite' enough to not explain to you why, isn't him being nice so much as avoiding conflict. 

These sorts of social dynamics need to be understood as a mod, otherwise you'll end up gullible and pushed by other people while not understanding the entire story. This is how someone could for instance think Sugar is a mod when even she has not said as much.

damn that's actually interesting



Also judging your idea of who is and isn't mod, I'm not sure if you pay enough attention to the goings on here to not accidently make mistakes from the wordplay of others aiming to push you. 

i would ask before doing anything like that other than basic stuff like removing a dox

as we'd see with Luna's banhammer sprees. If the audience here finds even one weakness in their staff they'll prey on it, as you've already seen bored users try to do, and based on your past reactions here I'm not so sure if it'd be a good fit for you.

i am innocent, of doxing and cp.



You at many points would have likely doxed if you had the information in your hands,

i actually do........ I have Emily's info for example, and you know I know who you are an I never.doxed you or your town nor worked with anyone to, in fact I tried to keep you from being doxed. I have YOUR information and I argue with you here more than anyone and I never leaked it, and there are times I want to, so so fucking bad.

and the sheer number of threats I've seen you do towards multiple people has me thinking you're not as pure as you want to see yourself. 

 

words are nothing, actions are what actually matter.

no he also said I would be a good mod he thought, if I were given the chance. Tomy speaks his mind.

 I don't need to understand social shit to see CP and remove it. it's modship not therapy, social dynamics should be left out to avoid bias.

How would you know who is and isn't being honest, and even if they were being honest how would you know if any of them were correct rather than mistaken? 

Mods have to explore the origin of situations rather than just responding to people's demands. The point of the job is to ideally do nothing. 

as we'd see with Luna's banhammer sprees. If the audience here finds even one weakness in their staff they'll prey on it, as you've already seen bored users try to do, and based on your past reactions here I'm not so sure if it'd be a good fit for you.

You are trying to play on technicalities, my point here's that you aren't innocent at all, that rather than that you're highly reactive and prone to episodes where you act further than you might otherwise allow yourself for. All it'd take is one overreach and the place could get topsy-turvy. 

You at many points would have likely doxed if you had the information in your hands,

i actually do........ I have Emily's info for example, and you know I know who you are an I never.doxed you or your town nor worked with anyone to, in fact I tried to keep you from being doxed. I have YOUR information and I argue with you here more than anyone and I never leaked it, and there are times I want to, so so fucking bad.

How'd you get my information by the way? Based on our past interactions all you should know is my town. 

Little spooky. 

and the sheer number of threats I've seen you do towards multiple people has me thinking you're not as pure as you want to see yourself. 

words are nothing, actions are what actually matter. 

It still shows how you'd respond to people who make you feel threatened. 

It's not promising.

suuuuure. but again, all you can grasp at are words I've said, not any real action. 

Words matter wtf? 

This entire forum is made of words.

no he also said I would be a good mod he thought, if I were given the chance. Tomy speaks his mind.

He didn't tell you why you wouldn't be picked. 

Why do you figure he did that?

There's been no CP here for a good long while though, I don't understand your point. 

What would you be accomplishing here if you don't even understand the sociological dynamics?
