I see you exaggerated as well with "warnings" when it was only a SINGLE warning for a direct insult. Amazing that you hold such grudges and come to these conclusions over 1 warning
My suggestion for you is to get a life, seriously. If you think the moderation is unfair you can find another site. We are volunteers, and the 3 of us do our best and try to bounce big decisions off each other. The fact that you feel so oppressed, wronged, and made these decisions over this small warning makes it very hard for me to take you seriously.

I also don't think you recall Joe and I having a feud for a few years, one exchange resulted in a warning from BC when I stepped over the line. Yes we buried the hatchet, but to think us being on friendly terms equates him to pulling my/other moderators strings is laughable. I agreed with Tom's decision for Joe's vacation.

Why do you care so much anyway? There's some great soap operas that my mother likes to watch to get her drama fix.

I also might remind you of this in our Cardinal rules.

13. Subversion or disruption of the normal flow and/or display of the Shop Forum is forbidden. This includes, but is not limited to, wholesale deletion of prior posts and posting a new thread for the express purpose of criticism of a moderator's decision.

Early on I took stuff like this much more to heart, and spent alot of time defending posts and trying to explain my reasoning to people who felt wronged. I spent entirely too much time with it, to the point that I believed it actually contributed to pushing away someone I cared deeply about. I've concluded that some people never feel they can be wrong in an action and will vilify any authority excreted against them no matter how benign. Most take the warnings/infractions to heart, some outright ignore them, some enjoy dancing around the rules, and others react in this way.
