Thats odd....... In the thread entitled "fucking pervert" Irons Right posted that the only reason you made Synikul a mod was to cause controversy and when I go to search for that post so I could quote it and put on here.... Its fucking missing... I read it though... I read it when it was first posted and now I can't fucking find it... I wonder if Denny will say something on that..... Its valid... I would like Denny's opinon and view on that thank you very fucking much....

That was my personal opinion on why I'm okay with him being a mod and posting there and I thought I made it clear that Dyshade's reasons and mine were seperate in the same thread:

My point was never intended to be that I'm glad we have a racist mod but the politics board needs someone like Synikul around with radically different views to spark discussion. Otherwise, the politics board would grow stagnant. We need someone like him around to help spark healthy debate and since he's the only person we've had on here who can debate in a mature manner while holding extreme viewpoints. I say why not establish his presence by letting him moderate the board?
Either way he's still going to be out-numbered and if he tries to dominate discussion on the board in an innapropriate manner there is no way that I and the other serious discussion moderators will let him get away with it.

um, it just seems like more and more peeps are given modship these days.....i remember when half the mods weren't mods......and now, they're mods!!!!!!!!! why? do they all deserve to be? i mean, i figure if they can be mods then i can be a mod.....but that doesn't necessarily mean i should be a mod.....

but, sumtin' else that bothers me is half the mods for certain forums don't always post in that forum, OR they almost always post in that forum......as was the case with White Lily....she never left the poetry section, which is why we had such problems with her......

but i think lately, DF has gone kinda Mod-crazy......there's a shit-ton of 'em.....why?

there doesn't need to be mods for every lil' section.....i mean, what do they ever do....really?

for the most part, the peeps at DF mod one another....if someone gets outta-line, someone will slap 'em down.......but sumtimes, some peeps go overboard......and, the mods don't all mod the same way.....

for example, Jordyn gave me a warnin' for callin' someone a total-fuckin'-retard in one of the adult-discussion threads.....now, my harassment was just playful, albeit with some spite, but said person never retaliated, hence seemed to have no problem, and just went about their day......so, why did Jordyn feel the need to give me a warning.....her reason was that she wants the forum to be friendly and open....but if said person wasn't detered by my posts anyway, then what was the problem really?.....but i ain't questionin' Jordyn's mod ability here....i luv Jordyn and will obey....

what i am sayin' is, is that you hop on over to the photography section and go into Tijuana Bandit's thread.....now, a lot of peeps here have some kinda problem with her, and it does upset her and is one of the reasons she is sometimes detered from posting here as often as she normaly does.....now, has any mod given these peeps a warnin', or told them to knock it off? i dunno, but i doubt it, since those peeps just constantly slam Tijuana post after post after post.....

so, here you got me gettin' a warnin' because i called one person (not a regular) a fuckin' retard (a long time ago, mind you) and said person wasn't even offended....

and then you got a montage of peeps bashin' a loyal regular and no one does shit about it.....

i would find "flaming" more appropriate in the adult-section than the picture section anyway.....

so whatz up with that shit?! thatz the problem with these mods.....we don't always know who's gonna bitch about what half the time....i mean, isn't Darktiggr a mod for the adult-section as well? why didn't he give me a warning? so.....i mean, whatz the deal with all these mods?

especially like all the new ones, or peeps who just seemed to becomes mods overnight.....like Iron's Rite, or SYBS......why? and, just fyi, SYBS has been one of the ones bashin' (somewhat) Tijuana......now, i like Sybs, i do....she's a kool kat....but, i just don't get why it is mods seem to get away with much more than regulars.....i mean, hell, some of us regulars have been here more than mods anyway....or more frequently....

and then, isn't Sik Simon a mod too? i think he is.....should he be?

who are all the mods anyway?

but....in the end, i agree with most people here that half of these mods aren't needed......i trust some of the mods, others i don't......some i have confidence in their mod ability, others shouldn't be granted with it.......and plus, i think that if there is gonna be a new mod, shouldn't the regulars have some say in it? should it be left entirely up to the other mods and what have you to decide who gets modship ability?

and like, what about this....take those who do flame a lot, like Anti or Lenina....i luv 'em both, they're kool kats, and they will give peeps shit quite a bit.....how often do they get warnings? i mean, itz expected of them.....right? so.....they can get away with shit more so than others can get away with shit....

so, all in all, i just don't understand the mods really at all.....i mean, what is it they really do?

but again, who are all the mods?

you answered this one yourself...

"but sumtimes, some peeps go overboard......and, the mods don't all mod the same way"

i don't moderate photography, and that's why we added jobe as a moderator there, it is now up to him to decide how to enforce the rules, and by spending time there, he can get a feel for the general atmosphere and then know how and when to be hard core with the rules, and when to let them slide.

i warned you because i was not aware you were joking, i did not think someone should be attacked for posting a discussion thread in the images part of the board, and as there aren't many posters there, i do not want to let anyone who is contributing to be deterred. tiggr is there because i requested help with the images, as i don't go there too often...my interests are mainly with stories and the adult discussion...and i've always been the moderator of advice, i'm happy there, and for the most part...people are good on my watch, so i don't have to be mean, or call out the big guns.

Synikul, he is a good guy....so he's racist, big fuckin' woop....and maybe because i'm slightly racist myself....well, i ain't racist, i just don't like black people.....i agree with him....and he is mature....he does present himself in a mature fashion.....

but i'd just like to point this out:

the philosophy section, mods are -

errantrogue, Iron's Rite, thefinalw0rd, RedMeat, Dyshade

and i answered this one in another thread...

i don't know if they can remove their names or not...but it seems it was explained to me like that at one point...

i understand what you're saying...and agree to a point; but i believe we have a good number of moderators, some are just inadvertently doubled up on certain forums...a technical glitch.

I used to doubt that you were an English major. Now, I doubt that you even went to college. That is the single funniest intentionally unfunny thing I've ever read on Darkforum.

surreal · 02-22-05

i've heard him give this speech before. it's like this:

he doesn't like black culture (african american gangsta/rap culture, in summary) because he doesn't prefer any of it. like someone who just can't get into industrial music.
but the doesn't think himself any better than people from that culture (and if he does it's not based on the culture itself but the person) nor does he pass baseless judgements on anyone that is black or even on anyone that is of the urban-black culture.
see what i'm sayin? i don't like nine inch nails, but i'm not gonna slam you for it. that sorta bit.
although i am better than you.

but that doesn't work. "black people" does not equal "gangsta/rap culture." perhaps he is unaware than whites and latinos (for instance) not only listen to rap, but are also gangstas. it's not like there aren't white gangs and white ghettos and white thug violence and all that. so, by that token, he should also not like white people. being from Cleveland, i've known a veritable shit-ton of black people in my life, and out of all of them, i'd say about five of them had thug potential.

It's like the Chris Rock 'black people vs. niggas' routine. sixxx hates the 'nigga' part of the equation, which pretty much everyone does. but that isn't the same as hating 'black people.'

You made yourself quite clear in telling me that I am as bad as a racist and you were targeting me upon saying that. You feel that because I hate racism, their ideals and the type of people they are, I am just as bad.... It is a shitty and warped way of thinking. I hate racism, it destroys peoples lives, I have seen what does to people first hand and I don't like like it. Because of that, because I dislike Synikul for being a racist and because I have voiced a concern for him becoming a mod, I am no better than him.... Thats some fucked up logic you have there Dy.... It was not meant to insult or demean me?? Well it fucking did and I think you knew what it was going to do because any fucking fool on here would know that upon saying that about or to me, it would piss me off. Its a retarded thing to say and it is a retarded thing to post.

Way to defend a racist fuckhead.... You would tell me that I am just like a racist to defend an actual racist....

Oh and just to knock you down off of your high horse, I never called you cunt for making Synikul a mod... I called you a cunt for insulting me in the lowest form there is.... The reason you say that I hate you for making Synikul a mods is because you want people to think that I have no valid reason for calling you a cunt... Well it IS NOT because you made synikul a mod and that is an insult too because if you honestly think I would call you cunt for making someone a mod who I have an issue with then you really are a fucking moron.

Dyshade · 02-22-05

Blah blah blah.... get over it.... I did not insult you... I was making a comparison.... it really is to bad you cannot understand that and i am sick and tired of attempting to make you understand it.... so have at it and whatever.....

Wow, way to talk yourself out of that one... You really are a cunt and a moron....

Cunt.

Oh yeah, people, thanks for helping me out, I mean you guys have no problem defneding a bullshit decision made by a cunt head supermod and yet when a poster is defending their character over something she believes and is slagged down for it, you take a back seat and cover it it up with more bullshit....

And you really are sad... very sad.... to dispose of a nice friendly atmosphere that we had just because you feel slighted for not getting your way and for me making a small comparison so as to explain why i think the way I do... well that teaches me.. from now I i will not explain my stance... i will just do what I do and when someone asks i will just say.... because that is the way it is like it or hate it....

oh.... by the way.. since you so easily disposed of whatveer friendly atmosphere... fuck you too cuntrag.... maybe one day you will see your irrationality for what it is and we can once again be nice to each other.. until than have fun.... from now on I am just going to ignore your whining....

Sybs · 02-22-05

For fucks sake Leanne!
I have plenty of respect for you, but this is not a dispute between 'Dyshade & his mod arse-lickers' and 'Neen and the righteous gang'!
It was something he said to you, not a slur against everyone, and as you've already branded him a cunt several times I would imagine his opinion is worthless to you anyway?

I can't even begin to try to interpret Dy, because I don't know what he meant, but what I would say is you're being just as judgemental about Synikul as he is about non-whites.

However, he's a mod now until he fucks up. There's not really much to be gained by campaigning against something after the event. Why didn't this come up a few weeks ago when he was first made a moderator?

Your a fucking loser too.... Trying to make people think that I hate you for making someone a mod... I don't Dy... I really don't... What I do hate is that you made a piece of shit gesture towards me in bad taste and that makes you pathetic because now you are saying that it wasn't directed at me and your going to ignore it??? Your a fucking loser, the reason you are going to ignore me is because you are wrong and you know you are... Fucking moron... All I wasnted was an apology and you couldn't bring yourself to even do that because your so spineless...

You know what... Your the one thats pathetic...

So your reading what Dy wrote and not getting the jist of why I am pissed at him at all.... Thanks Sybs... go licking up Dy's asshole... HE INSULTED ME.... How many times to I have to say that the reason I am pissed at him is because he insulted me with something I am against and if you really can't see that then don't bother telling me all of this again... I don't care if Synikul is a mod anymore.... I have stated this time and time again over the course of last night and today and you people still think I am pissed at DY because of that... I DON'T CARE ABOUT THAT ANYMORE!!! You people have saw to it that I was tired of debating it... Well done, I give, you win.... I am Pissed because he insulted me... And now you have... You respect me? Well you know what....
