A Certain Issue Needs to be Addressed (Admin Moderator)

Friday 22nd March 2002

Posted on 3/23/02 12:53 AM Central by Texaggie79

This is an issue that is becoming more and more of a concern to FReepers. Many FReepers have received suspensions, and some more unlucky ones have been banned permanently. The common complaint is that there is no reason given by the Admin Moderator, and no explanation is ever received.

There seems to be a certain AM that is a bit trigger happy and refuses to give cause of his/her actions to anyone, leaving the issue unsolved.

If the purpose of Suspension is rehabilitation, then I believe it would be helpful to receive an explanation as to what exactly was done wrong.

This is basically a petition thread for FReepers that are fed up with some of the actions of the Admin Moderator. Please ping over anyone you know that has received punishment and was not informed why, and please let it be known if you think the Admin Moderator position needs to be re-thought.

This thread was the idea of several FReepers that share these feelings, so if you guys don't get on here and make your feelings known, I will become angry........ :-)

I don't know TA, you care to elaborate. I've never even been suspended..hard to believe I know. I see Callahan is even back now.

It wouldn't surprise me who has never been suspended. They come VERY sporadically.

Yep, I've managed to survive Libertarian battles and Southron threads that get slimed as racist with nary a scratch. LOL, I'll probably get canned soon. I do think an explanantion would be appropriate particularly in light of permanent banning....but it's not my forum. I have noticed that certain FReepers seem to have a less degree of separation from the bosses than I do. I don't know...managing ...what 80k loudmouths like you and me can be tiresome I would think.
