We (the satff) are going to be trying to resolve this privately, I won't say more than that.

Or how about you stop pretending to be sekrit backroom club faggots and explain your faggotry publicly?

This is why staff names should be enabled in the moderation log.

They probably have someone getting pissy about Russians and shit. Probably some faggot from Ukraine.

They want to handle it privately because if this went public there'd be hotpockets spilling onto the floor.

There are some things you just don't speak about publicly anon, this is one. Sorry.

I'm going to assume that you're just roleplaying as a vol because otherwise that would imply extreme autism-level hotpocketeering

Actual mod responses pls

It won't happen again, and we are very sorry that this happened in the first place.

I'm pretty pissed about the thread too, I had been posting in it before I went to work.

I'd prefer not to have to post proof I'm not RPing, as its a waste of my time, but if you REALLY don't believe me I will.

Anonymous 03/02/15 (Mon) 09:43:54 1e2241 No.5032

that seems like a fine /pol/ thread to me. not sure why something like this would be removed…

If you are an actual vol, explain:
1. What the fuck is up with the "muh secrecy" bullshit?
2. Why the fuck has the retarded volunteer who deleted that thread not posted here? Your post implies that a) it wasn't you and b) you've had some sort of contact with the retard who did.it.
3. How new is the volunteer who did it? Did he have similar fuckups already? What is his usefulness/fuckup ratio?
4. Why aren't volunteer names enabled in the moderation logs so I don't have to ask question 3 every time someone fucks up?

1. Have you ever worked in a professional setting? In those settings, there are things you can discuss publicly, and things you must discuss privately. Its a basic part of ethics.
2. I won't answer.
3. Same as above.
4. This should not be necessary, as we SHOULD be jointly responsible for moderating, as we do it as a team, in general, and team members should not point fingers for fuck ups publicly. We see who makes bans, and that is enough.

That said, I am personally disavowing this ban because I can not condone it. I hope that you will trust me to have this issue rectified in a timely manner, as there is nothing more I want to say about it.

Again, I apologize for the inconvenience caused by all this.

In response to #3, that would allow the users to call for someone's head when they fuck up. Can't have that, no siree.

Anonymous 03/02/15 (Mon) 10:15:32 b59849 No.5038

Okay, post proof that you're an actual volunteer. Now.

03/02/15 (Mon) 10:15:50 7f281b No.5039

Fuck, god damn it I meant in response to #4.

I need to go work on other shit. polite sage.

Make a post anywhere in /pol/ (not a thread) that says "for the volunteer", and Ill delete it within 5 minutes, along with sending a 5 minute ban that says "proof". You won't see the ban message until after trying to make a post, though. Will that suffice for proof?

>>5037
You're not putting much thought into this. Public drama is not a good thing when you have the option to resolve it privately. The biggest reason, though, is that most of our mod names have some sort of personal connection and we would prefer not having to waste time to recreate accounts for everyone.

Sorry have to add, report your post after you post it.

Make sure you attempt to make a post to see the ban message.

Anonymous 03/02/15 (Mon) 10:48:21 41298a No.5049

Well since your ban expired without you having read its message, just look at https://8ch.net/log.php?page=1&board=pol for your ban, it shows the reason.

The ban message is still shown even if the banned hadn't posted before it expired, anon.

Made a separate thread to discuss your redditfaggotry here: >>5050

Yeah I don't know why OP's thread was deleted, either. It seems like a perfectly fine thread to me.

Also: I used to think having mod names be private was better, but after reading this thread (and its sequel) I'm wondering whether we'd be better off having them be public. What do you guys think?

>>5014

nope, he's a vol m8.

They should definitely be public, doorways is a fucking retard

If we're doing the democracy thing, I also vote for public mod names.

I don't mind, I set my name initially so that it couldn't be used as a personal identifier, I just had no idea if you guys had done so already.

Anonymous 03/02/15 (Mon) 21:20:02 f4efcb No.5100

Yes. We should definitely make them public after this little drama involving the shitmod happened. The more transparency for this to not happen again, the better.

heh

its sad that the owner of this site who pretends to be a cripple has to pretend that some "never there" mod is in charge of pol instead of just admitting his narcissism and control of the board
