Guys, its not āus against themā unless āthemā is the forces that wanna keep cannabis in the dark agesā¦ Seriously, I know the mods / staff also wanna grow and foster a fun environment, and really, sometimes people donāt make their jobs easyā¦ And this is NOT my house, or your house, we really are guests hereā¦ So lets be grateful for what we DO have, not be antagonistic, and force mods to do things they donāt like. I never liked having to ban someone on the other forum, but I can assure you most times thereās a lot of discussion among staff before bans are doled out, even here. Thats just simple forum management.
Sure we can disagree with mods decisions, or how they handle things, thats the beauty of the internet, we have so many different perspectivesā¦ But if you think being antagonistic, or pushing buttons will solve issues and reverse things that have happened, chances are you are on that same path to ban-nationā¦
I appreciated both SCST and DirtRonās postsā¦ But remember, they chose their paths as wellā¦ I will miss those guys, but I would miss this place more if lots more people go down that pathā¦
Please, lets just have an open mind and understand that the requests of mods are generally being done for the better of the site, whether we know the reason or not, iām sure thereās more in play than we know.
That being said, I REALLY would love the mods to be more activeā¦ AND more identifieableā¦ When Loki posted is reopening of the FSFC thread, he put a link to Team OG and the Moderation staffā¦ Thats the FIRST time Iāve seen those lists and I have looked for those lists MULTIPLE times (aint a forum newbie, but the organization in the forum software can be a little wierd). Those links should be on the bottom of every page, and mods should be active and visible enough that I donāt need a list to figure out who is whoā¦ And to me that causes most problems, mods who arent visible, some users feeling entitled, shit goes down behind the scenes and conspiracy theories that flowingā¦
Againā¦ Canāt we all just get along? I just wanna learn new things, teach a few tricks of my own, and socialize with like minded folksā¦ And seriously, I always though cannabis calmed people down, from what I see, a lotta folks need to smoke more and fight less!!
/off my soap box nowā¦
