Well technically I can do whatever I want because it is in fact my site, however, I believe that this site maintains its integrity through a system which endows our Moderators with the ability to check & balance. An example would be, that (according to the undisclosed Moderator Rule List), a unanimous vote of (at least) 4 active Moderators can overturn my ban.
But I want to reiterate that the cordial & soft spoken reminders we\'ve issued about lazy forum use hasn\'t had any effect. Perhaps it\'s harsh, but I felt that Benjaminflocka\'s post was the straw that broke the camels back. Within the past 48 hours, I\'ve seen posts like on the last page of Miracle\'s PR where twice he was asked questions whose answers were found in the same thread!!!
Some say this forum is large and it\'s hard to find everything, but don\'t you see that by repeating questions that have been answered multiple times only perpetuates the muddying of this forum?
What I\'ll do in the near future is some forum maintenance, cleaning up repeat threads, and maybe merging others. But I am in no way shape or form regretting my actions as it pertains to Benjamin\'s ban. And those who have been here long enough know I\'m not some asshole on a power-trip, I just needed to make a point loud & clear. And it seems as if the point is resonating.
