Alex, you're next...

[Calandale]

SG, you've been fine.
Unless you go out of
your way, I doubt that
you'd cause any such
reaction.

[Mr Smith]

well i just spen the last 15 minutes reading wp and i gotta say all the good people got bann3d, that place sucked before but it even sucks worse now

Most of the good people just left. Some cool people got banned, and some people fucking deserved to be banned. I don't mind WP actually, but it's more fun here.

[Natalia Evans]

I like both places.

[Calandale]

I like both places.

Me too. I'm just worried about WP.
Hell, it ain't going to kill the place, but
it might dampen it significantly.

It won't. People move on, other people fill the gaps.

[Calandale]

Uhm, I'm NOT talking about the loss of
a couple of members. I'm talking about
the change in moderating standards.

And there was me thinking you loved me and you'd all miss me dearly... 

[Mr Smith]

Uhm, I'm NOT talking about the loss of

the change in moderating standards.

What change? It's been going on for years.

and this is why he dumps the strong posters.
it breaks up cliques and new members can gain their footing.  and, it drives away any cult of personality, other than his own.

Yes, Alex is more of a student of George Orwell than.... George_Orwell!!!

I haven't seen the prior situation.
There is a possibility that the site
is returning more towards it's roots
then, with an attempt to limit free
speech (especially against the administration
of the site). At least, this is how I see it.

"That site sucks"


 

I think that he was seeing that allowing moderators
to make decisions was making them act with favoritism.
But, how the fuck should I know? Ask him.

[Mr Smith]

Alex just uses people until he finds someone "better" or more manipulatable imho.
