Quote:Then I'm wondering why you feel entitled to make suggestions to the moderator of this forum who probably knew all the details when he made his decision.
If I were in Ben's shoes I'd be surprised why some people think it has to be democratically brought into agreement with all users on how he should do his job. It's not as if the moderator is obligated to make the most popular decisions.
In fact, if a moderator was basing his decisions on popularity he would be a crappy one. There would be no need for such a forum moderator as that's the way people would handle themselves anyway.
Usually he is basing his decisions on the rules he is there to enforce, rules that people wouldn't adhere to by themselves. That is bound to make you get disliked by some people. If rules weren't enforced they would be taken only as seriously as a mere suggestion.
Thanks man, that is correct I haven't made these decisions lightly. In fact this is the only forum i've ever known of that would even allow this discussion we're having right now. I understand it may have upset some people but in the end i'm here for a reason and to make the forum more smooth without people getting abused and such.
