It is clear that some violations of the TOU are permitted and some are not, how that comes to be is completely unknown based on the apparent history of selective enforcement. Maybe it's only enforced when people with favorite moderators report it, maybe it's enforced only when confidential informants report it, maybe it's only enforced when confidential informants and favorite moderators disagree with certain forum members?

It's clear that there are numerous times where moderators participate in a thread wherein the TOU violations occur, maybe the mere fact the violation occurs and is known is insufficient to compel enforcement. Maybe it's only when someone elects to be offended by something they chose to read and communicates such offence to the moderator it rises to a violation.

I do find it very amusing that some of the most virulent and demanding of “forum law and order” characters not only regularly violate this ENHANCED ENFORCEMENT TOU provision but they also seem to enjoy immunity from doing so! That in the process it exposes some hypocrisy is priceless.

It’s also just another example of the unintended consequences of piss poor rule making.
Specifically, which moderator is the most guilty of this subjectivity/dereliction of duty? Would you mind citing specific examples?

Unlike you I have no favorite moderator nor am I privileged to the machinations of the moderator troika or the decisions of individual moderators; so I can't offer an informed opinion as to anyone’s degree of guilt or lack thereof.

As to the overall subject of disparity I would simply compare the alleged violation by sjh an few days ago and any of the alleged violation of the same terms and conditions I have publicly noted with respect to postings you have made as well as others. Certainly I have no objection to you doing a search and finding the specific examples if you'd like.

And hey you ducked my challenge to waive any privacy claim and allow moderators to reveal the identity of the confidential informant who complained to the moderators the he was offended by the posting of copy righted material in violation of the TOU when sjh did it, was that you?

Ducking? Is that as strenuous an action as your sideslip by my request to name names in regard to your claim of bad moderation?

Oh, and who is my favorite moderator? Name a name.

It was you, wasn't it? Come on, you've admitted in the past you tell on others.

I've explained I don't know deliberative participation of each moderator so how could I answer your specific original request:

I don't know who your favorite moderator is, why don't you tell me, you where the one to bring up the "favorite moderator" concept to which I earlier responded it "is a concept unknown and foreign to me"

Quite frankly, sjh's posts were so tedious to read that I usually just didn't bother to do so.

That wasn't an explanation - It was an evasion.

Are you, or are you not indicating the proximity of specific moderators to posts/threads containing TOU violations in which the offending member was not cited? Are you, or are you not implying that those moderators were derelict in their duty, or exhibiting some form of favoritism or other bias when the offender was not cited?

Yes.

You are infereing an implication that has not been made, I've noted the disparity and questioned it's origins.

It's more than just an implication; it's a flat-out assertion of moderator bias! Surely you can come up with just one example over the past few weeks of the behavior you're referring to above!

Im really not sure what all the whining is about. This is a privately owned web site. The owners can enforce what ever rules they want how ever fairly or unfairly they want. If they do not want anyone named David to post here that is their prerogative. If they want to ban you yet again for being you that is also their prerogative. They do not need to be consistent nor do they owe anyone an explanation. If you do not like the way the game is played then dont play.

You sound lime sh but with a more pretentious writing style. Either deal with it and stop whining or leave. I dont think anyone here cares which.

Thanks sweetheart! If I ever need a bag of peanuts or a pillow I'll be sure to let you know, otherwise I'll continue to make fun of you or ignore you as the spirit moves me!

I own the moderators. I pay them well so that they will do exactly as I say.
