General discussion of moderation procedures - Part οκτώ

Source = EvC Forum: Suspensions and Bannings Part II Trash messages, disruptive and absolutely irrelevant to the topic. I consider both of them far too intelligent to requires warnings about doing such. See the above quoted Adminnemooseus. See reply to message 94. I commend your observation abilities. You message, however, contributes nothing to this discussion.All that said, I had no intention that those suspensions were actually going to last 24 hours. They will be soon lifted.Yes, I was making examples of Archer and Subbie. They and others should know better than to insert such stuff into such a topic. The "mini=suspensions" are intended as warnings to them and others. Warnings that will actually get paid some attention.Adminnemooseus

Well, maybe, but if so, it's subtle and difficult for my limited analytical abilities. Now, AdminPD could probably properly analyze the situation. Discussion of what is the nature of the big bang ("the position") sure does seem to be pretty scarce. Therefore, it would seem to be at least some basis for your complaint. But is the rule violation going both directions?(The feeble minded) AdminnemooseusAdminnemooseusEdited by Adminnemooseus, : Change ID to admin mode.

I strongly suspect you are correct. Percy is putting on a show of bad debate form. I wonder how much of it was pre-orchestrated with NWR?Anyhow, I'll wrap of the afair by giving Percy a 24 hour suspension.Adminnemooseus

When I saw NWR's review request, I skimmed the series of messages he cited. Not a careful, in depth analysis by any means.At the time I posted the above quoted (and I was soon going to be off-line for many hours), there seemed to be an admin consensus that Percy was indeed in serious violation of guidelines. Thus I decided to do the suspension deed. Basically, I was presuming that Percy was shooting for a demonstration that not even the site owner was immune to suspensions.Upon further reflection (but not after re-reading the messages), my recollection is that there was a lot of smoke with little substance. In such a mess, it can require (at least for me) a lot of work to determine who is at fault for the blather. In the past, I have sometimes just declared such a topic to be terminal mess and then close it.In summary, it was a strange thing to have two members (of admin status no less) who I have such high regard for to be involved in such a mess.Adminnemooseus
