YOUR LEADER IS A CLOWN

I appreciate your love.

I am just working like a freak to master survival. My time is very limited to be around, sorry 

I will keep an eye on you, humans.

I am not a human

I would also vote for Emerald as a mod.

Yes, and you too.

I try to select the most mature and wise people that I see here. But over years their behavior can also change, as was the case with NoSelfSelf. His behavior seemed to devolve over the years, or maybe I just didn't know him well enough from the start. Frankly his case is so rare I've barely had to deal with something like this before. I almost never feel a need to demote a Mod. Usually Mods leave on their own because they have other stuff going on outside the forum that is more important.

I am not sure if you already vet this way - perhaps a video call with potential mods?

Text is quite deceiving: it gives one time to formulate & craft an answer.

It can be a false projection of someone's true nature. A nice little virtual avatar to hide behind.

Tone, facial expression, eye contact, body language. 

On the fly expression conveys so much when you can read it 

Good way to vet others.

But you don't seem to have a chronic issue with mods behaving poorly so this method may not be needed

@Natasha Tori Maru Good points but a mod for a forum can be based on how they interact on the forum.

This is not a dig or an exaggeration, but I never understand a single thing he said, not one sentence, I think Gödel was easier to understand.

I partially agree, I am addressing behaviors that appear to go unnoticed that manifest later.

Behaviors that aren't conveyed through this medium

You can detect far more regarding someone's integrity through face to face / video interaction

Leo is easy to understand. I sense the source of your confusion (or anybody's confusion experiencing this) could be as a result of an overly ideological style of learning. The appropriate way to learn from anybody is to break down every single thing they say and rebuild it as your own, testing everything against reality in case the person you got it from is inaccurate in any respect. Of course you then need to be mindful that you might be the person who is inaccurate too.

He’s talking about the mod who got demoted, not Leo.

Ah, so I am the one who is inaccurate

It's so lame to have this type of attidude and act like somehow you're not being pussy. It's totally acceptable to just not like the way things are on this forum and have whatever type of attitude he has, but obviously if its not welcome here I would just leave and go somewhere else. Not make a big ass scene under the guise of somehow being "Manlier" or whatever. Thats soft as hell to be honest lol.

Just relieve yourself of your duties and move on to somewhere else that fits your worldview or make your own forum. To me its more weak to just waste any time or energy crashing out in any capacity. If I don't fuck with the energy in a situation I address it head on and try to find solutions or understanding, and if we cant come to an understanding then I just move on as fast as possible. I don't have the time or energy to sit and just argue with people for not seeing the world how I want it to be seen. It's not even personal either its just more about what type of space do you wan't for your life. Obviously there is other people who resonate with your ideas why just make a ass of yourself when its other places that will accept you despite your beliefs. 

 

Not saying people shouldn't feel welcomed here but the whole power aspect of this thing is kinda sending me. I'm not even saying I can't relate with bro either but I would just have more respect for myself in this situation and I'm trying to put that as lightly as possible.

Feel like theres more power in just being humble and assertive.

Sounds like this guy had the bad case of the cookoo's 😂

It's okay. You've done it now, and that's what matters. I trusted the issue would eventually get resolved.

I would like to finally come out and say that I have also been harassed by him in PM. (it took a long time for me to say it out loud due to trauma and this bad habit of keeping uncomfortable things to myself and pretending it’s OK).

I just want to make a few words so you know whos your leader.

I thought the thread is about Trump "obviously", was surprised though that why it's not in politics section.

That's the only reason i opened it to see.

This issue has long been settled.
