I've dealt with a lot of people that are pretty devious and all you can do is roll with the punches and learn from it.It's too bad so many people think that they have to lie for fear of not being accepted,or whatever their motivation,but that's the way it is and it's like a chain reaction. Val-I also hope this thread gets closed.I'm not the first or last person to go off topic. |

Why do I have to go into a defensive mode on this board everytime I carry out a moderating decision? When I did the spring cleaning and placed the few new rules for the forum at the top of the main page, I was determined to carry them out and try to change some things so that GMs would be a bit more inviting. I am not picking on anyone, or playing favorites, and I am frankly sick of all the criticism. Damned if I do, damned if I don't. You can hate me, or like me, but since it is up to me to carry out the more unpleasent aspects of administrating, then I expect the unpleasent feelings from members. I will not justfy my decisions to any of you and you don't have to agree with me. All I'm getting from you is if I don't enforce the rules, I'm wrong. If I do enforce the rules and deal out a little punishment, I'm wrong and I'm showing favoritism. When I carry out a ban on a member, creating multiple accounts to get around it is a blatant defiance and shows a total lack of respect for this board, its rules, and its staff. I you don't see it that way, then OH WELL! Thanks for all the support.

Hey guys, I guess I missed most of the drama (I couldn't get on this weekend) but I have to say I agree, Entmoot is becoming less friendly, too much politics, not enough Tolkien! I spend most of my Entoot time right now in RPGs, (but then, I've got three major ones coming to an end.)
I have nothing to say on Ruinel's ban. I really like Ruinel (my wife, ) but I don't know enough about the situation to say anything. SGH, well, I have to be honest, please don't tske offense, but it seems to me that you've lost some of your sense of fun in the board. That is not completely your fault, people are not always cool to you. (And the whole "unfriendly Entmoot" aspect). But I think EVERYONE needs to remeber that this is aboard for the purpose of people who love Tolkien, to come togethr and discuss Tolkien and other things (GM, Entertainment etc.) What we need to do is intersperse mor "fun" threads in with the srious and political threads. Anyways I'll post more later, I have to go to History class (which I am brutally failing, due to lack of effort.) Finrod Aaron

That's probably one of the reasons why I will never become a mod/admin.

As for feedback, I have no problem with it as long as it is presented in a decent way.

ANYWAY... since we're off topic (I don't like the topic anyway - it can lead to trouble - plus it's a duplicate of the one I bumped a couple hours ago - which was started, ironically, by Blackboar!)... anyway, since we ARE off topic... I've started THREE COOL THREADS in the Tolkien forums these past couple hours. Everyone scoot on up there, see what you think and have your say!
