Plus if your threads are being deleted again and again, at what point do you stop creating them and perhaps realize that it's not worth the hassle?

Do real MODs owe us an explanation? Maybe...or maybe not...it all depends on the angle that you look at when you're thinking about this particular resource...
I agree here Rocket and I can say that before I wrote my last post I strongly considered that there is more than I thought to the OP and if that’s the case the behavior in the thread makes sense to me. The mods, if there were any in this thread, were just chasing him down.

In fact, I even anticipated the post above coming as a defense to mods, though I figured a mod would post it. I accept that defense and I suppose it’s no surprise you had to step up here.

I have no problem when mods sniff out bullshit and react abruptly. I admire Shari for the bold way she handles some posters once she knows they deserve it. She might be the best at it.

And you’re also right about one poster re-creating threads that are being deleted. Posters should get a clue. I can’t remember exactly who posted some of the deleted threads but I think it was multiple posters, I think.

I also don’t think mods really owe any explanation, we know what the deal is and those who can’t accept that in light of the many SBR benefits that are here can leave if they want.

I personally feel that Costa Rica is not really a big threat to 5D or the industry and if that’s the case it’s ok to acknowledge it and tell everyone not to panic. Again, the relationship between 5D and SBR isn’t a concern to me.

I still don’t know if any mods actually came into this thread but if so I can say the kid mods playing on my kids’ Minecraft servers are more professional.

The below post summarizes the behavior which pissed me off and has me basically off of SBRForum.

Instead they try to derail the thread by changing the subject and mocking those that participate.
I still don’t know if a mod came in or not, honestly.

But unless it can be demonstrated that the treatment is warranted (like Shari), when the mods troll I roll.



Just caught Kraken's post and everything in there makes perfect sense. I can see why it's best that mods stay out, but I still have to wonder whether that happened here.
