CinnamonStar Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 Oooooh I'm surprised my name hasn't been mentioned yet. (Reason: I wasn't really well-liked in General lol.:/) Nah, I'd have to say Bloodrun. He wasn't able to keep his temper in check many times and got his powers stripped by the admins (back when they were kind of active), that already tells a lot. Other than that, there are regularly mods being promoted who think they're all that and try to rotate everything around their super special snowflake personality, but it doesn't happen too often anymore and it's not as bad as Bloodrun. So Bloodbunz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 I'd have to say Tyrantking10. Although I don't have anything personal, I haven't seen him moderate Questions & Help during the times I see him online Everyone else is pretty good, including Opal.

fenrir Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 Eh... Probably Sushi for me. Nothing personal but he just kind of did nothing. .__. At least, that's what I remember. God knows he hasn't been active. Otherwise I don't really hate other mods. I have few personal dislikes but it's personal and not about their modship or whatever.

Sushi did more for Graphics than anyone else (no Harm Yin you're still wonderful with what you do and Graphics is glad to have you). He was actually quite amazing too (if a monotonous but brilliant graphical style). His arrogance when you disagreed with him was troublesome, and often caused some annoyances between me, him and Yin. But I can't fault a man for a personality trait that didn't have negative consequences. He did so well with Graphics, it's remain virtually unchanged since he was instated. And he personally spent a week sifting through all of Shops moving the requests into the requests forum, being very detailed about how he did everything. Inspiring really.

Mehmani Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 Bloodrun was one of the only moderators I recall that actually challenged the rules and the governing of this site. Predictably, they banned him forever to shut him up. He also had a penchant for getting into arguments with members that often didn't end well, but he was a very eloquent fellow who actually tried to do something right. I'll miss him. I recall Tea Leaf a little but not much. I remember her getting banned for arguing with the staff or something like that. Worst Moderators? JesusofChaos for being a disgustingly immoral person and Yankeefan for being an authoritarian nutter with latent psychopathic tendencies (like banning people for months at a time for negging him, of which I was on the receiving end of once). I had the democracy idea a long time ago, but I doubt it will work for a variety of reasons. First of all, if there were no moderators and/or admins then who would promote them? Secondly, many of the current staff would not be willing to give up their powers so easily. EDIT: Bloodrun "being an evil meanie" is all a big propaganda thing. Many of us who actually remember him know that he was not at all like what the new members are told to think he was like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
