For your information omega, apj101 issued you with the infraction. I edited your post and closed the thread.
I can't quite see how you can say anythign at this point. Some of the threads and posts on CLW are far from complementary to cf.com. Not only do you openly link to the site in your signature, but you then publically advertise the site that you were baltantly trashing cf.com on.
So don't try and get all high and mighty for "the way mods/admins do thigs round here" when people like you are constantly ripping the site to pieces through actions such as that.
Ranked 2nd on the entire board, over 12,000 posts... Does that not command at least a tiny bit of respect or dignity to belong to cf.com? It obviously doesnt.
I can tell you straight off that this whole CLW issue has not been taken lightly by any of the moderation team. It is being discussed constantly and has been for the past 5 days. When Ian returns and finally gives some input there will be consequences, such that you are currently provoking following actions such as these recent incidents.

And yes, all communication through PM is being shown to the mod/admin team.

To address your points, Geoff, PM's are only discussed and acted upon when the person receiving the PM has had cause to bring it to the mod team's attention. Only in those circumstances, when an appeal has been made by someone, will we as a mod team ever know what goes on between PM conversations.
To address your second point, what you are saying is true in one respect, but it is also analagous to the rule that you can do whatever you like, legal or not legal, off the forum, but discussions of an illegal nature are closed down. A police officer may have his own personal beliefs, but when serving the public they are supposed to be impartial. The mod team are human, and find many of the same things funny as I'm sure the rest of you do. The difference is, the private forum sections are there to provide a freer and lighter atmosphere to ensure a balance when dealing with the public posting.
Just a reminder, I'm happy to debate this with anyone, but lets keep it civil. Despite what some of you may think, there are good intentions at work by all the moderators and administrators.
No it wasn't sarcastic, I was seriously wonderingbobo, is that last comment sarcastic? cause if not i might know.
I can understand if I was posting it everywhere, but I made one simply post linking to it. And it was in a thread which was talking about other forums that members are involved in.And Geoff, that subject was discussed at length, was fairly unique, and was within the guidelines that it's not the fact that you had a link in your signature, it was what that link referred to. You're free to disagree with the decision all you want, but a moderator concensus was involved.
WHY does everybody think I'm either a clown or a robot????? grrrr(aside from bobo cuz hes a clown lol.)
I'm in total agreement here. Fortunately this thread isn't in his section.The one i had and still have the biggest problem with is Dragon2309 or whatever. I believe that he really misused his mod powers beyond what any mod should closing threads just becuz he felt like it and what not. Why he is still a mod we may never know.

Yes I know, I was being sarcastic too.lol, i picked you out for fun man, i knew youd love it lol. Your cool though so its all good.
There was a lot more than that involved in Clutch's ban. I hope you can all realize that discussions occur behind the scenes, and that some members are reprimanded or banned on the basis of actions that are not publicly viewable.Now, back to the problem. You banned Clutch becuz of the forum he made. That, is what pissed me, and alot of other people off as well. There was absolutely NO reason to ban him for that. He did nothing wrong and i believe you all know it. What he did was nothing more then what you mods do. He created a place where we could "make fun of" the forum in some aspects. Not the entire forum itself. And I, ME, OTACON, was the one who did most of the bashing in that forum anyway. So why you banned him we still do not know.
