Moderators editing posts

[:....:mike:....:]

On purpose? That's a pretty serious accusation, and one that holds no ground at all. He's even said that he might have been a bit too strict, what grounds do you accuse him of abusing powers on?

All I am saying is that you make a decision when you see the edit button on a post you do not see is appropriate. If he or whoever thought twice, he or whoever wouldn't have had to put that edit text and then say I was wrong just to cover it up. He or whoever knew very well they did it on purpose because like any other person knows that they benefit from it. Btw, your methods of trying to make us look below you is pathetic and doesn't work on me or anyone else. So, I noticed you find yourself pretty high on top there with those questions and statements you continuously use against people to make them look stupid.

I think certain mods need a listen on what rules are...

lol i was thinking that. its ironic that we're trying to explain to a moderator what the rules are.

basically, imagine that i started a thread about carrots, then someone said how they hate carrots, but like parsnips. then someone said they liked parsnips to, and it sparked a conversation about parsnips, this is alright.

however, if i started a thread about ipods, and someone said about parsnips, this is off-topic, unless of course they somehow found a way to link an ipod with a parsnip.

Well, I sometimes notice that about Alex, saying that I am being patronizing, but it is kind've true because I may have put it a little bit nicer, but thats just how it goes.

Of course.

Any thread like

iPods > Apple > New iPod Advertisment > Features of "new iPod" > "Discussion on what iPod is best

Thats fine as its still relating to the orginal post.
So was the 4chan thread. :rolleyes:

Moderators always say we want to be treated the same way as users because we don't want to seem so high in power. So, I chose to speak to him as a user
as someone I prefer to exploit vs. someone I rather look up to for anything.

No, I can 100% see where you are coming from.

I just thought that I'd explain my actions. I am not a moderator because I enjoy having a go at people. I'm not perfect, I may make mistakes but I feel it is unfair for people to attack moderators simply because they have a position of power on Habboxforum.

I would never, ever abuse my powers or edit for the sake of editing. I simply over-edited that thread, a misjudgment that was not done purposely. I think any suggestion otherwise is unjust and unfair.

I 110% believe that. You would never - you have only done what you thought to be right. That's all.

Yes, maybe someone should re-announce the definition of off-topic.

Last direction by Sierk as I posted before but I think it got losts

i find this simple,
If Mods continue to edit when there not suposed to

Perm ban.

just like the new rules on the feedback forum !!

fair is fair.

Also, I find that only one edit per person is needed, rather than going down the whole list of "poinless, off-topic" posts, the last post should be edited with a message involving no more of "x".

I would like if this to was a casual forum, I don't want the management to be gung ho on moderators because they make a mistake.

Well, if that moderator would be fired if there was no explanation.

However, I believe I had good reason to edit the posts I did BUT I over-edited the thread and I believe Callum is right in only editing one or two of the posts.

edit: I think the people who are going on about the irony of telling a forum moderator the "rules". I think the irony is that members say moderators get above their station when members to the same thing.

I think respect works both ways.
