I have a feeling there are a lot of Kafka-esque bans at WP. Too many personal interests at stake and nowhere near enough leadership from the plank.
The main problem as one of the other mods told me is that: "it doesn't help that WP is basically a kingdom, and with the king absent so much of the time i think it is tough to know how he wants things one. he's had so many run-ins with the past moderators that i am certain i already know what my future is going to look like!!!"
We are trying to avoid getting too involved in a discussion with someone but every now and then it happens and a mod starts focusing on one members actions and banning them. Havent seen any of those lately but I know that you have to keep an eye on avoiding getting too involved discussing things with someone
