They just made up the position to get you to stop throwing tantrums.
It didn't work.
I'm surprised it took Thork this long to realize that.
I was bemused at the time, but thought someone had just not finished organising the group. Rather than moan I just sat back and waited to see how things would turn out. There is no point in a group if it doesn't have any privileges. That's the point of a group. Wiki editors can see the wiki form. FEBs can post in the FEB forum.
It doesn't help when the first thing Thork does upon seeing that someone is being 'watched' is shout about it.
I suppose this was an absolute disaster and makes Tausami's mod-boner and bam-rampage look insignificant? Listen Your Majesty, I'm someone who doesn't create alts, doesn't bring down the site, doesn't set up facebook or youtube accounts slagging the place off, doesn't chase off noobs as soon as they post, doesn't post porn, doesn't disrespect Tom Bishop, doesn't spam the place up with "he is" posts, doesn't necro posts that should be left alone, bothers participating in the upper fora repeating the same things for the hundredth time and makes on the whole "high-content" posts. I'm a f*cking model forum member!
As for me calling the mods out on it when they are being ineffective, that was a good thing. I am no longer able to see and note when they do dumb things with the warning system but answer me this Wilmore, Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
Now if you don't mind, I have important messages to disseminate to the rest of the forum. Good day.
