Kalphiter is very bitter and jealous, it's kinda cute.

Lub+Kalphiter = Lubphiter. Imagine the genetic leavings.

*no edit
Meant to say:
Imagine the heredity.

Requoting because it was ignored.

Alright I'm done with this circus, I've entertained your collective bullstuff for long enough. You guys don't get to decide who moderates these forums.

The fact of the matter is I am the most active moderator on these forums by far, I've spent hours and hours of my time as a moderator cleaning up all kinds of messes on these forums. I don't think any of you have any idea how many pictures of dead people, mutilated animals, gore and all kinds of other stuff I've had to put up with while removing posts when one of you starfishs decides to go off the rails and Self Delete spam all over the place. I'm the one who sits here for hours deleting those posts until the guy posting them tires himself out or Badspot comes on to ban them. It's a thankless task and then I have to put up with threads like this.

There's only one guy who's opinion matters when it comes to my ability to moderate these forums, and it's none of you.

You guys literally have no idea how much this guy does for this forum. In comparison, deleting a few superfluous posts that are attacking his service is easily forgivable, but that's not even what he does. He deletes irrelevant posts, you guys only get upset about the irrelevant ones that he deletes that are attacking his service though. I've had posts deleted in his thread and I've never attacked his service once, he just goes and cleans up the chitchat so that the topic stays on topic. Sometimes that includes deleting posts that are a direct attack to his service because if he doesn't the topic will fly off into a tangent. He leaves negative reviews and comments, he's not purging his topic of all hate. Furthermore, even if he was some corrupt Blockland politician, he's the dictator's adviser and you guys don't get stuff to say about it.


You guys aren't going to get anywhere if all of your arguments consist of calling anybody who disagrees a mean word.

I have moderated for two different online communities, and, just as Ephialtes says, it's a thankless job. You get these people who make stupid posts and then act totally surprised when they get removed.

With all my experience, I can safely say Ephi's actions are entirely justified.
If there's a megathread for something, keep discussion to that thread. That includes downtime. You don't make a new topic saying "ogm fav musician is ded" if there's a megathread for that musician.

It didn't work the first time, and it won't work the second time. If anything, this will just get Badspot to make an official statement on these threads.
Kalphiter's posts are being automatically deleted (within 10 seconds) by Ephialtes, so I'm posting this topic for Kalphiter.
I don't believe it's a rule here, but where I come from, posting stuff for somebody else would get you a ban.

It's pretty clear the community wants Ephialtes removed from his power.
Poll says otherwise.


Despite the things I dislike about Ephialtes and the ban I earned on RTB purely on the fact I disagree with the way he moderates the forums, no I don't believe he should have his moderator privileges revoked nor do I believe they ever will be.

Despite the things he does do wrong, he does a lot of good on the forums that you don't see for a reason.

weren't you one of the dumbasses that was reposting kalphiters threads the first time this happened?

Yeah, your point?

well then the ban on rtb wasn't purely for disagreeing with the way he moderates

I posted 2 threads based on his bad administration, one was removed, that's why I posted the second.
That is not considered spam as they were both focused on two different events, but the first was deleted so I couldn't just add the next even in.

So therefore, yes it was purely for disagreeing.

i.e., a moderator made a decision and you violated it by continuing

not "purely disagreeing"

Continue reading my very un-intelligent friend, I could not post in the first to describe the event that happened after it was originally posted, so I posted the second.

..which means you continued after a mod made a decision to end the discussion

And then went and did something completely different, so therefore it is a new discussion
