It said their win was against one of the teams that beat us.

I was thinking they only won one game & we didn't play the cowgirls.

You're right, I shouldn't have edited it. My bad.
Why didn't you just quote it and tell me I was wrong or did a FIFY if you thought I was wrong? This editing of posts is BS and unacceptable. If you're trying to force me to leave you're doing a good job.

I honestly couldn't tell you. That's what I normally do. Don't know what happened last night.

I'm sorry.

Still waiting for a answer as to whether or not if we’re allowed to block mods.
I am pretty sure you can’t.

A long time ago in a galaxy far far away (actually within the past 18 months and on this board) another poster was having an issue with a mod and it was brought up about having the ability to block a mod. It was a no at that time.

I think it was an honest mistake that won’t happen again.

Was it though? Inquiring minds want to...

Oh for christs sakes, how can a mod be a mod if you can put them on ignore? :lol:
Pshhhhhh… don’t tell me you’re buying the “honest mistake” argument too.

Lol.

He shouldn’t be moderating anymore. I mean it’s already bad enough that the man talks in circles constantly… yet… is like a -stickler- for knowing facts. I ain’t buying it. The man knew -exactly- what he was doing. He just slipped up last night and got caught. Plus it’s -flatly- outlined in Corrosion’s post of the rules… mods won’t edit. I think I should be allowed to block him since he doesn’t follow the rules that he’s been assigned to moderate.

*shrugs*

Either way… I’ll just silently ignore him and hope that he doesn’t edit posts in the future but damn. I have missed this place and have enjoyed being back the last year or so. Oh well. Back to FB I go and sporadic TT posting.

:)

Before you go can you help me resuscitate Liberty, Freedom and the First Amendment? It seems like you think they died over this.

What do you do when a mod is neither impartial or honest?
Ask for accountability, apology, and not to do it again. Which you asked for without any faux outrage.

And TK did all three.

I personally think he was drunk mod’ing and made an error.

I don’t see him as a mod abusing his powers. Is there human error from time to time? Sure. But no one is perfect.

Being a mod is a thankless job and they help keep the place going. We also see in this situation we can call a mod out and get things corrected. Which is great. I would be more concerned if nothing happened.

If we have been here for several years we know what a bad mod can look like. TK isn’t even close.

You’re right. It’s a thankless job. Not sure what that has to do with this? I’m comfortable with my reaction towards folks editing other people’s content to fit their own narratives. Drunk or not (it’s not the first time… scroll upthread)… I’m uncomfortable with the fact that it happened. This group has never really needed moderation in that context. I know I’m overreacting with all this but no I don’t think he did all three. I think he insulted everyone’s intelligence then retreated.

Hopefully it doesn’t happen again and the other mods also ensure that it hasn’t happened before by searching the admin panel. Now I’ll be taking the pacifier out of my mouth and pulling up my own diapers and moving on.

:)
Narrative? He thought he was correcting who beat who on a given Sunday. And was mistaken and apologized.

I thought you were leaving.
Never said I was leaving. I’ve been here for 25 years.

*eyeroll right backatcha*
