Date: March 3rd, 2007 10:57 PM Author: Aphrodisiac digit ratio meetinghouse I'm still puzzled by the reaction. All we wanted to do was delegate my grunt work to other people so I could focus on more important things. No policies were going to change. If someone screwed up, whatever they did wrong could be reversed at the click of a button. There was absolutely no downside to this for anyone except spammers and outers, who would have their posts go away much faster than in the past. And yet people think it's the end of the world. I truly don't get it. (https://xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=589638&forum_id=2#7704622) |

|
Date: March 3rd, 2007 11:05 PM Author: Rebellious wonderful sweet tailpipe Anyone could have deleted posts with sugarywitch's name in it. The fact that you picked posters who people disliked, and to an extent hated, and gave them authority really bothered people, and rightly so. You should have found mods that nobody would have a problem with, but were still knowledgable in the daily musings of XOXO to know what was going on.

If someone overstepped their bounds they can easily be tracked demodded. You should have picked non-controversial people to be mods, not people almost EVERY poster hates. |
|
Date: March 3rd, 2007 11:40 PM Author: Aphrodisiac digit ratio meetinghouse Almost every poster hates MindTheGap, chancemeeting, Joe Caltech, Rowan, Earl, Hazelrah, jane hoya? The fact remains that those people were the best qualified for the job -- I know them, they know me, and I know they wouldn't have made things difficult for me by making bad decisions.
I've already explained NYCFan. I don't know why people here keep insisting that I should have publicly humiliated one of the best posters on the college board, especially after the mod interface was changed to allow wrongfully deleted threads and posts to be recovered at the click of a button and to keep track of who made those deletions.
Once again, I think people are making a mountain out of a molehill and creating drama for the sake of drama. |

Date: March 4th, 2007 12:00 AM Author: Ruddy abusive patrolman "Who cares if he promotes his school?"
Me, and lots of others. You asked why I don't like him; that's your answer.
And anyway, he does much more than "promote"- he trolls constantly and in an exceedinly annoying manner. Please don't pretend to be blind to this- even he has conceded that he sounds like an asshole online.
"The fact is it would have no impact on whether he deletes a thread or not."
Probably true, but part of the animosity here is that people don't want unliked posters given power. Seems pretty reasonable, really- try putting yourself in our shoes. You're free to disagree, of course, but I think I'm accurately relaying the feelings of many. |
|
Date: March 4th, 2007 12:06 AM Author: Aphrodisiac digit ratio meetinghouse I was in your shoes. I was on PR along with everyone else. And I've seen how bad having an elite mod class can be from what happened early on with LSP.
I guess I don't understand why people just don't trust us to do what's right in these situations. What could we possibly get from turning this into another PR? |
|
Date: March 4th, 2007 12:10 AM Author: Scarlet chad "I guess I don't understand why people just don't trust us to do what's right in these situations. "
You secretly moded NYCFan after creating a board that escaped tyrant mods. You reinstated NYCFan to spite posters. You won't remove NYCFan when he's proven a poor mod because of your pride. You delete NYCFan's personal information in spite your own outing policy.
Yeah I'm sure people have no reason to distrust you two faggots. |
|
Date: March 4th, 2007 12:14 AM Author: Aphrodisiac digit ratio meetinghouse NYCFan was outed against his will, so his name gets removed, just like everyone else.
As I said earlier, the new mod interface was created to deal with NYCFan. There was no downside to keeping him on -- if he's kept on and he does a great job, then we have an effective moderator. If he starts to abuse his power again, then all the threads get restored and he gets the boot. In both cases, no harm is done by giving him another chance. I'm sorry that being loyal to people who have done a lot for this community upsets you so much. |
|
Date: March 4th, 2007 12:16 AM Author: Scarlet chad Loyalty at the expense of integrity. Spoken like true idiot.
You wonder why people have no faith or trust in the mods. It's because YOU DON"T HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS. |
|
Date: March 4th, 2007 12:20 AM Author: Aphrodisiac digit ratio meetinghouse So if NYCFan had been demodded everything would have been okay? I somehow doubt that. (https://xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=589638&forum_id=2#7705194) |
|
Date: March 4th, 2007 12:25 AM Author: Scarlet chad If NYCFan had been moded publically, at the consent of the majority of posters, or had stayed demoded the first fucking time instead of remoded to spite posters, or was demoded the second time...then maybe people would trust the mods. You kept making one retarded mistake after another. At the moment, people have no reason to trust the mods because you appoint and defend mods who have proven to do wrong.
But explaining integrity to someone like you is completely futile. Enjoy law because it seem like a great fit for you. |

I don't want sugarywitch or Jane Hoya knowing my identity, after I start threads on their sexual practices. I don't want Rowan to know who I am after I make a threat saying how much I hate Rowan.

Do you really think doing something stupid like letting peple see IPs (which I can't even do without jumping through many hoops) would further that purpose in any way?

Date: March 4th, 2007 12:11 AM Author: Rebellious wonderful sweet tailpipe i don't know how the mod interface works or how you get IPs. Most people don't. Most people are skeptical of what you tell us, because there is controversy over just how much information you have on us (BCB outing for instance). I'm not saying your decision to go to Mods is a bad idea, but you should have picked better people to do it. Furthermore, you need to just relax over this whole thing. I can understand being stressed out because of deans e-mailing you and threatening you. But does it really matter if "I lick assholes for fun" sends you e-mails calling you a faggot jewbag?

Date: March 3rd, 2007 11:53 PM Author: Aphrodisiac digit ratio meetinghouse And measures were taken so that if he did inappropriately delete a thread the thread could be instantly recovered at the click of a button and we'd know that he was responsible for it.
If he kept deleting threads that shouldn't be deleted even after getting a stern talking to from me, then he would obviously have been demodded. But what harm could possibly come from giving him another chance? There was literally no downside -- if he does a great job, we have an effective moderator. If he does a bad job, all his damage can be immediately undone and we can get rid of him then. Insisting that he be removed despite the new mod interface served no purpose except to put me and rachmiel in a very awkward situation that could have resulted in no benefit to anyone. |
|
Date: March 3rd, 2007 11:58 PM Author: galvanic wrinkle locus That's not how it works. He acted multiple times in bad faith and never even apologized for it.

You're basically saying I should give control over the site to people I know nothing about and in some cases may not even trust just because they're "popular."
And enough with NYCFan. It should already be crystal clear to everyone that I didn't approve of his actions and, one way or another, he was going to stop deleting inappropriate threads. |

Date: March 3rd, 2007 11:09 PM Author: Bistre cerebral fat ankles Why are bad things always happening to you IRL? Everytime someone attacks you online you say 'its the last thing I need right now.' Are you being repeatedly raped or something? (https://xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=589638&forum_id=2#7704731) |

Date: March 3rd, 2007 11:20 PM Author: Aphrodisiac digit ratio meetinghouse I don't think you realize just how much I have to deal with IRL because of things people do on this board. Let's look at what happened just this week:
1) Several law school deans think I'm behind T14 Talent and begin to contact Penn's dean trying to get me suspended / screwed for character and fitness / threatening to contact my firm / etc., causing me to spend several hours explaining to everyone that it was not run by me but by some other guy.
2) Some girls from the T14 Talent contest hired ReputationDefender, who also contacted law school deans, media, etc. about the whole thing, and is now demanding that many threads referencing these people be deleted.
3) Speaking of the media, I'm told there's going to be a hit piece in a major newspaper sometime next week attacking both this site and me personally.
4) I discovered that a certain professor contacted faculty at a school where I had an LRev article accepted trying to... well, you can figure out the rest.
Given all that, can you understand why I might not have enjoyed being attacked by the board over something like this? |

Date: March 3rd, 2007 11:08 PM Author: ruinous phenotype (in Chinatown, hung over) "no threats were made." Let's review:
BCB said:
Late last night rachmiel contacted me, asking if I would work with this board to improve it. I agreed that I would.
I shut my site down at the risk of being outed. Rachmiel knows my name, which probably wasn't difficult to figure out if he is able to look at all the posts from my IP under various monikers.
At the creation of BCB, I vowed to shut it down if I were ever outed or risked being outed. That's what has happened here.
The real story behind BigChangesBoard [BCB] |

Date: March 3rd, 2007 11:09 PM Author: Topaz glittery azn doesnt sound like threats were made. sounds like BCB was a pansy once rach found out who he was. (https://xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=589638&forum_id=2#7704730) |

|
Date: March 3rd, 2007 11:13 PM Author: Topaz glittery azn people make things to be implicit threats if they are pussies like BCB.
BCB freaked out simply because rach figured out his real identity, that was it. |

Date: March 3rd, 2007 11:15 PM Author: ruinous phenotype (in Chinatown, hung over) I don't dispute that BCB is a giant sissy. I called him that in another thread. However, Rachmiel's tactics were fucking underhanded. (https://xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=589638&forum_id=2#7704774) |
|
Date: March 3rd, 2007 11:18 PM Author: Topaz glittery azn you dont think consolidating the potential competition is legitimate?
if so then I just see it as a business move. I dont think BCB was every actually at risk. |
|
Date: March 3rd, 2007 11:20 PM Author: ruinous phenotype (in Chinatown, hung over) It'd be legitimate if there wasn't the veiled threat of an outing. Rachmiel made it obvious the fact that he knew who BCB was determined the outcome. They didn't just offer the guy a wad of cash, that'd be a legitimate business move.

|
Date: March 3rd, 2007 11:22 PM Author: Topaz glittery azn well to be fair, you dont know exactly what were the terms of the outcome.
If you know someones real identity contacting them might be a way of getting their attention. sure its some leverage, but do you honestly believe rach or GTO would post the name of BCB? That would really fuck them more than having the competition would. |
|
Date: March 3rd, 2007 11:24 PM Author: ruinous phenotype (in Chinatown, hung over) They never had to post it. That's the point. Being able to threaten to post it means you'll never have to pull the trigger. It doesn't make it a legitimate tactic. (https://xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=589638&forum_id=2#7704820) |

Do you really think thats not legit? |

obviously I trust the admin here - and because I trust them I see things in a different light. I dont believe they would ever out someone for competition reasons, but I do see how some people see their behavior as incosistent. |

Date: March 4th, 2007 12:06 AM Author: Scarlet chad Just days before new mods were put in, GTO made a colossal error by not removing a mod who abused his power for the nth time.

And you think people are overreacting? |
