When an Admin Moderator lies to a member of the site, should that Mod get booted?

An Admin Mod decided to lie to this Freeper, and say that Responsibility2nd didn't make the post he did...

It cost this Freeper $50. Should that Mod be banned?

Hello? Admin Moderator doesn’t exist. It’s just a figment of your vivid imagination.

Hope that helps.

If someone posted a thread accusing a fellow freeper of lying, without providing any details or background, would you take that claim seriously?

It takes a special kind of slime to do get a FReeper to kick over money under false pretenses. The Admin Mod said that R2nd hadn’t made a post that was deleted, but it turns out he had. This post backs it up http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/gop/2553442/posts?page=34#34

I cannot accept an Admin Mod who lies. Too many good people donate to this site. This Admin Mod just urinated all over them.

I kicked over the cash because this is the one place where we can expect conservatism.

But the Admin Mod might as well be Mitt Romney or Barney Frank.

Admin Mod, do you deny it?

You ask that question as if WE decide who goes and stays on this board.

Since we don't, isn't your question being directed to the wrong 'place'?

You’ve been here five years longer than I have, yet this is the first time I can recall seeing your handle.

Probably the last time, too.

It’s all a plot to get the rest of us to make $50 bets on whether you’ll still be here in the morning, with FR being the beneficiary of all the wagers.

They do it all the time.

$50????... I have never heard of FR “fines” before. Have you been scammed?

Whatever you do, don’t post a vanity about it. The mods hate that.

This crap isn't hard to figure out.

1. The post was by 2ndDivisionVet.

2. That poster says here in that thread it was supposed to be a picture of: "Star Trek's Mr. Spock with a beard."

3. In all likely; 2ndDivisionVet linked to a picture that doesn't allow others to take their bandwidth. You see it all the time. Little messages on pictures that were removed. Some though, change the image to a disgusting picture to counter remote linking.

It’s true. The MOD lied to protect me. I have carried this secret all my life.

And when you are completely f’ing wrong because you saw a 2nd and read what you thought was right, what do you do?

I got banned once because somebody was either mistaken, or lied. It didn’t take long to correct the situation, because I contacted the proper people.

I didn’t plead my case to the public (hard to do anyway while you are banned), as you are doing. I don’t know what you think we should do.

When posts are deleted, I look at them as never having existed. Off limits. I don’t need to know what they said, or why they were removed, or who did it. If I do know, then I avoid even discussing it with others.

Using an ADMIN MOD to back up a bet in a wager seems like a poor decision to begin with. You are putting the ADMIN MOD in the position of REVEALING the POSTER who was censured.

The whole point of removing a post is to remove discussion about it, and remove it from public display.

When that happens, the wisest thing is to ‘drop it’.

IMHO.

(free play period)

NO. Next time offer the ADMIN MOD 50% of the take, and you won't have this problem.
