Hi, as already said in the #reactos-dev IRC Chat yesterday I, too, think Z98 is right (http://reactos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=7634&start=75#p67090), this is not how a real mod has to behave. But this criticism counts for him, me and all others in the privileged teams IMO! I know that some of my behavior is more childish than anything else you could call useful and professional, but I ask you, what ways to tidy the forums up, do I have, except gallows humor and sarcasm? Lets explain what evilness I did this time again. Every day on my way to university I sit in the train, start Opera Mini on my Mobile and run through the forums to do my job and in recent times more an more posts with harmful and destructive meaning occur. Most are from our well known troll-friend nute, but there are other flaws right now, too. For example the newly registered members, who write one post with SPAM in their signature and hope that noone of the Mods recognizes it, but this is another story. OK, back to the main story. I looked trough his "When will Version 0.3.blablubb finally be done you lame, useless dumbasses of so called Devs"-post, which I already moved to Off Topic because his unintentional negative influence does not belong to the General Forums IMO. Well, I know the very last warning spoken by Z98 against me in the very same Thread and realized that the same behavior he accused from both sides reoccurs after just two days. Flaming and Bashing from both sides again... Well, I lock topics and get bashed, I warn ppl and get bashed, I rename a thread which has nothing to do with any Version 0.4.11 talk and more is meant as a battleaxe against the forum and the project and get bashed too, so I decided to do nothing except a good amount of sarcasm and properly renamed the Thread to "nute's private playground" which it was anyway at that time. Well, I had nothing to loose. All my steps would have resulted in bashing anyway, so I chose the funniest path. Some subjects in the forums play with us and noone cares. They spread crap about us, which could even harm our image and noone cares! And if I dare to try to sentence disciplinary actions, I get kicked from above. Well, why should I behave like a real mod pretending to be one? I have lost all power over the forums, because our own hierarchy fights against me. I have as much power in there like all others users, because most of my steps and actions are being reverted or openly criticised anyway. God its fucking frustrating to have no ways to moderate the forum at all, but being called mod! If we do not finally start to spread some authority in the forums and stop to always see the good person in such harmful subjects without the minimum of aggression needed to be a Mod IMO or giving mods like me ways to do their job without anyone always falling in their back, we can close down the forums immediately anyway. Psychotic trolls like nute and more than enough others need limits, otherwise they dance on our nose as they do right now and a hierarchical system which fights itself is no way to get this done. It did not work in the Weimarer Republik and won't work for us, too.
OK this had to be said, now kick me, degrade me, whatever you think is best, but please finally do it once and for all, please. Only the best for Project counts! I don't care what happens to me as long as we get this problem solved. With or without me as mod. Have fun.
