why do both sides look bad?
People who voted "no" are either stupid or misrepresented by the proponents that have posted in this thread.People who voted "yes" aren't posting here.
Were not 'stupid'. You are. You think sarcastic comments on his own thread don't have the right to be removed. He can remove whatever the hell he wants on his own topic. As he said its a simple 'perk' of being a Global Moderator. Maybe if you didn't post complete stuff and sarcasm he wouldn't delete anything. Only things they have posted on your topic lately is graphs showing evidence of how bad your provider sucks.
I haven't seen anyone respond to or mention all the abuses he made.
This isn't the first time he's deleted posts. If there had been anything he didn't like in the RTB thread, he'd delete it. I've complained for ages about the lack of an auto-updater for servers running RTB, but he normally deleted my complaints as well as any other thing I complained about.
posting about lag issues in the RTB thread
RTB is dedicated for the people. RTB hosting service is dedicated for the people. RTB is a dedicated service for the people and it is not strange that people that is dedicated to stuff on the thread are dedicatedly removed. Simple as pie, gents.
When all you're doing is "posting about lag issues in the RTB thread" you are equal in use to the people screaming "Laaag" on the everyday server.
Even the half the Yes voters don't want it revoked, You might ask, why would they vote yes? Because it wont happen just because one guy with some stuffty service wants to revoke someones admin ship because he actually made a decent service and removed your posts when you tried to flame it and act handicapped.
Not trying to take any sides here... but...If it's been going on for 2 years wouldn't you have figured out just to like... stop?
Yes, I'll gladly give up fighting with an abusive moderator!
