Rooster 

Post#1 » by tracey_nice » Thu Dec 10, 2009 2:18 am

Dear Rooster,

Why did you make my warning public? That was completely unnecessary, unless you weren't going to PM me but you did, was it to show off or take charge of "your" board?
And, unless you gave Canomad more courtesy than myself and FSN, why wasn't he warned, you warned me for personal insults but insulting everyone who is Muslim on this board isn't a personal insult? I myself am Muslim and found nearly everything he said personally insulting. I think we would both agree you would feel hostile towards someone who completely and uninformatively degrades your entire religion but unlike you I am not simply able to lock such threads with a click of a button, I assume by now you have gotten good at this. And, if I am mistaken and you have warned him than you are still a hypocrite for not warning him publicly. So what is it? Are you a hypocrite or are you a hypocrite?
I think my warning should be rescinded and Canomad should be suspended or banned for complete disregards and adherence to someones beliefs. A public apology would be greatly appreciated.

Yours truly, tracey_nice.

Tracey,

Thank you for voicing your concern on the F&S board.

While I will let Rooster answer this question himself, I think you will get a better response with a different avatar.

We on the F&S board encourage our posters to approach mods with the same respect that they would like to receive.

Thank you again for your concerns,

Deer Rooster,

Why did you mod me about seriousness when Manocad told me to "GTFO, dude. Seriously."

And what did you mod in that asterisk about my bully story exactly? I thought I said Iron Curtain bitch. Can you still call someone a bitch, yet not say where they are from?

Dear Spartan,

If you look lower down the page, a poster is voicing his displeasure with some of the misogyny that occurs on this board. In addition, the term "Iron curtain" is frown upon by some people, I am told.

Thank you for voicing your concerns!

Spartan13, the way you worded it made it sound like the two were intertwined. Also, I hope you realize that behind the former Iron Curtain, there are at least four different ethncities and six different countries. It's a shaky and not particularly tasteful generalization to make. I didn't even give you an official warning, so you know.

tracey_nice, we're currently reviewing some things involving that thread and others like it. All I can say for now is that if you see a post you consider offensive, instead of accusing its poster of having the approximate IQ of a gourd, to just report it or to state its unfairness in a civil way. We actually do deal with things here.

There are tons of public warnings on RealGM. This is not an isolated instance.

What about the blatant hypocrisy?

Your response appears to be one large deflection. I do expect things to be dealt with accordingly, including my public apology.

It'd be a show of good faith if you changed your avatar and signature.


Yeah, seriously.

Frankly, you aren't really helping your case here as the victim.

Deflection? I'm kindly telling you to report posts and to refute posts nicely instead of to personally attack other posters. Is that clear enough?

Are you for real? Mods don't apologize in PM's let alone in public!

I just apologized to Canomad for misreading his statement. I apologized quite often when I was a mod, even if I didn't do anything.

I do not see how the context of my avatar or sig are relevant to this particular incident. My sig and avatar were the same prior to this incident and will be the same long after.

Rooster should do the right thing and step down as a Mod.
