I know you're not. And in a way you're right, but once again, we're growing. Sure it's controlled now, but who knows what'll happen over the next few months. especially since it's summer and people are glued to their computers... and besides, we don't want any digi-challenge incidents. Well you are a mod and as such you can pull rank on me now, but let it be known that I personally feel that a staff forum is not needed right now. And as the discipline I feel that, to take the above-mentioned example, was taken to be out of order somewhat, yeah? Whereas I woulod consider it to be well within bounds. Nice? Maybe not, but allowed? Certainly. Anyway, I guess I'm just playing up because of the new mods and all but this is my opinion. In point of fact I'm worried that if you consider what this forum is is badly disciplined and attempt to rectify this.... I've seen forums rip themselves apart when that happens.

true you could be right but disciplinary action does not need to be actioned until the members themselves become incensed

I've seen forums rip themselves apart when that happens. i kind of feel like you're thinking just because we're appointing mods that we're taking over or something, but we're not. sure we might address a few things but it won't be hostile take over or ripping things apart. i mean, most things won't change(about us) and magna's right. we won't probably won't punish you unless you're just being an absolute jerk

He did nothing but refuse to ''treat others with respect'' now that's all well and good and I normally agree however, in this inmstance I agree one hundred percent with everything Shroud said. And what's more, I would have said so if the thread had not been locked. I am aware people want this thread to die, so that's the last quote I pull from it. The point is that while Shroud did not prhaise is in the best way, he was right. Now, Amna is friends with the girl so I know where she is coming from as well... but the fact that someone has the power to '' discuss something and we'll do something about it'' just because I said somthing they might not approve of fills me with distaste.

And thank you Magna.

And thank you Magna. It wasn't truly the topic that got to me, it was that she was able to do it. If I say somthing a mod doesn;t approve of, what to stop them banning me? This is a theoretical of course as I wouldn't do that and anyway I'm a sure I would get a warning first anyhow. But lets say the forum grows giant, members don;t know each other too well anymore etc, etc. Whats to stop a mod banning me because I said somthing they don't like?

Correct but that's not what I'm getting at. I know if it did happen I would quickly be unbanned and the mod would be stripped of power but what I'm getting at is that on a lesser scale, it can very easily happen. I've seen it on many forums.

Try taking the point of view of a person who's new on the forums (iow. hasn't met Nightshroud) and who's seen gotten involved in the DC incident, Talos. Amna, at that point, doesn't know much about Shroud's regular demeanor and I guess she's a bit paranoid of having a similar incident start here.
And yes, if she did suspend Shroud for that I would've thrown a tantrum.
