Miss_Mod, thank you for your input. In the future, please do not discourage people from debating their feelings regarding Mods on this board.

If you have a problem with a specific mod, bring it up to YNLissa. She knows all of our identities and she can make sure that any concerns are taken care of.

It would be much better for everyone involved if complaints were brought through a third party (Lisa seems the logical choice), so as to avoid a complete mess of accusations and unrelated arguments ruining the flow of otherwise very interesting threads.

Witch hunt, anyone?

I'm sensing a pattern.

YNmod1 is another mod who targets Bushsupporter and myself. YNmod1 reprimands us for "violation" that are blatant on almost all boards while no one else is reprimanded.

That's exactly what is happening here.

No seriously, the mods on YN are probably the most tolerant and reasonable I've encountered anywhere on the web

Real talk. On CS (the other website I spend all my time on), the mods delete peoples' profiles just because they don't like them...

Stop complaining.

No one got insulted to the point where they decided to no longer participate on the thread.

I think the reason the thread was closed was because people were getting insulted? If it's a slow time for YN, start a debate thread, yeah?

I once went to a white supremacist forum that claimed to allow alternative views, but every post I made was censored because I actually held an alternative view.

You guys don't have it that bad.

I doubt YN staff would agree with you. This is billed as a place where debate is allowed and alternative views can be spoken and heard. Maybe YNLissa could clarify this for you.

They're very tolerant; maybe the reason you're targeted so much is because you mistreat people, the same way you've dealt with me, for example?

I think I should be given mod rights so I could be supreme dictator of teh interwebz.

No seriously, the mods on YN are probably the most tolerant and reasonable I've encountered anywhere on the web, they do a very good job in my opinion.

If you feel you're being targeted by a mod maybe you should ask yourself what it is you're doing to deserve it(posting provocations in every single active thread comes to mind...)

No, it was a thread that people we posting on. Seeing as how this is a slow time for people posting on youthNOISE, I don't know why you would be so adverse to keeping open a thread that people posted on.

Probably not a big deal to someone who never gets hasseled by Mods for their viewpoints.

So Capricorn thinks Mods should be able to intimidate NOISEmakers into providing proof under penalty of deleting posts.

Insane and irrelevant logic.

By your standards, maybe. I think it's completely sane and relevant, though.

It was just a stupid thread to talk about posts.

Risika2004 is correct, please view her post in Post Deleted under youthNOISE feedback.

Sorry guys, but I agree with Joey for ONCE.
