Wowz. I sure am inflammatory! Anyways, I think he was just mad that we were talking about his dad and stuff... Kinda a touchy subject, don't you agree. Many seem intent on getting him out. He is usually pretty good. Still, I agree now, that a minor probation or something would be nice. He really is overworked. Everyone should have mandatory vacation!

Fuck that shit, demote him!
Do you not see all his banhappy faults. He is "nearly" banning for giving an opinion on a government party.

...He was trying to ban me?
Everyone knows that wouldn't happen. I mean, that would be obvious power abuse.
This is still power abuse-y, but I think he should just get a probation. A small amount of time.
And the "I would have found some way to justify it" part is kinda... Well, you are supposed to ban people for obvious stuff against the rules. Not make the rules bend around what you don't like.
I still think a probation would be good.

We can stick him on watch like we did Fox, for awhile. At the very least.
Oh, and thanks to that "I would find justification" line, I'll have to ask that he presents a screenshot for any of his future bans to be valid. For that matter, we ALL should. Most of us have zscreen, it isn't that hard.

What is zscreen? I just press the [Prt Sc] key on the keyboard, save the image to my hard drive, upload the image to the Web, and link to the hosted image.
Anyhow, that is an excellent idea and should be implemented, although it seems some of the staff are already in the habit of doing that. The policy shouldn't be hard to implement...

It provides cropped and webhosted images in seconds. It's really awesome. Check the ban board.

I love out of context screen shots. Look, stop shoveling shit on the pile. I already made it clear that I would ban nobody because of their political views, and I apologized for using the term "right wing wacko". Tea party is crap though. You watch, the Republican party will be torn in two by it. If the Tea party movement is strong enough, Obama may be able to get re-elected, providing there are two republican candidates, one for, one against the Tea party.
They left out the part where I said that I counted the member's comments as flaming, and gave them a warning as such. And I specifically said that it would have taken at least three more significant breaches of the rules for me to ban them. At that point in time I was just a little inflamed over the fact that people were bashing the Democrat's party. I resolved this matter long ago with Veers.
You guys are getting me to be VERY close to leaving the forums for a while. I'm not going to rage quit, but this is becoming more stressful.
I would honestly rather lose my modship than continue on this way. I seriously can't take the excessive trolling. Now, I can let the trolls run rampant, but then I'm not doing my job. I can ban trolls, but then they find screenshots of me talking about my opinions and threatening to ban them, which was not cool, I admit and apologize, though I have made it crystal clear to everyone involved that I would NOT have followed through.
PZ, when did I not help you with Priok? Perhaps I was busy at the time. If so, I'm sorry, but I hope you understand that I have things to do.

...so the screenshots ARE out of context, hence the lack of timestamps?
I hate bias so much, and yet trace amounts are inevitable; however, is this merely "sparing"? Now that I have seen both sides to the story, I will make a decision. MicroFarad will be put on watch by the administration, just as FoxtrotZero, and Qwerty333 will be given a 50% warning for blatant manipulation of evidence. If either of the affected parties find this unfair, please follow the appeals process as listed on the forum rules thread and send the appeal to any or all of the administrators for review.
So that the posts as listed here can remain unaffected for other staff members to review and properly judge the appropriateness of my action, I will lock the thread.

I was wondering why it was all cut up into different images.
