In memory of those we lost in the past years... this dedication is to you, the eccentrics, the free thinkers, people who made a difference in our lives both in the real world and on the net.Thank you for the memories.

Why did she get unbanned? I'm curious.
Quote from: midlifeaspie on February 27, 2011, 12:12:44 AMThe entire moderation staff at Wrong Planet is less than 4 weeks into the job, and learning as we go. Hopefully you find a hell of a lot more professionalism than previous staffs.QuoteThought police?Yes, that's what Alex and previous mods have been.QuoteThink what you will, but not every thought that crosses your mind must be expressed.And who determines what thoughts "must" be expressed?? you do??QuoteI have no interest in stifling debate or being a preschool teacher,This statement is incompatible with your previous one.Quoteonly in allowing people with social disabilities the space to interact with others without being bullied for entertainment.You mean like the way that Quatermass, Sinsboldly and Mr.Mark bullied people when they were mods??QuoteMost of you have accounts over there.More like multiple sock-puppets from being capriciously banned so many times.QuoteDo you really see us doing anything other than this?Previous moderation staffs were nasty pieces of work. They kept order and control of the site by bullying the members. Those who couldn't tollerate it left, those that remained behind were the cowards who didn't know how to stand up to bullies.QuoteDo you think any action taken so far has been petty or personal?The long history of WP moderation has been largely petty and personal, especially Alex Plank.

Thought police?
Think what you will, but not every thought that crosses your mind must be expressed.

I think you quite missed my point
I was asked to request to be unbanned actually, instead of making new accounts to get around the ban. I don't think my Volodja account should have been banned in the first place tbh as I still don't know why it was, but thanks for unbanning it btw, I am a he

Leejosepho isn't a moderator anymore. The entire moderation staff at Wrong Planet is less than 4 weeks into the job, and learning as we go. I have a couple of years under my belt moderating a larger site than WP, but certainly not with the unique challenges that this site presents.Thought police?

If you wonder how active I am going to be, the answer would probably be "not very". Moderating WP takes up most of my online time. I am curious to get to know some of you and something about this site, but doubt I have a lot to contribute that is different from what I contribute at WP.
Quote from: parts on February 26, 2011, 07:36:59 PMSo what were the results of your search Negative.You all seem very interested in my every move here. If you aren't comfortable with my being here just say so, and I will respectfully withdraw. I don't want to make anyone uncomfortable.
So what were the results of your search

If you want to know us and us to know you, post here. As you know, what you say is moderated at WP. You can't tell anyone to fuck off or say that Alex is a vindictive little cunt there because someone will warn you and then ban you.You can, here.

I'm constantly calling people vindictive little cunts here, they tell me to fuck off, and everybody's happy!
Jesus died on the cross to show us that BDSM is a legitimate form of love.
There is only one truth and it is that people do have penises of different sizes and one of them is the longest.

(Leejosepho handled the iamnotaprettybirdie situation single handedly, leading to the current staffing)If you have no interest in stifling debate, then why are you locking so many threads?It seems to me that every time a debate becomes interesting over there, you lock it saying that the debate has run its course.Are there some personal attacks that have been deleted from these locked threads?

I for one am interested in what you have to say. Admittedly it's because of the hype but nevertheless...
