We should sticky this thread instead of that one.

Cereally.

Well played COR, well played.



Oh SNAP!

Let's play the how many mods posted in that thread and how many times game!

l�cid 333

narcism 86

Lira 95

Allied Nations 44

Floorfiller 20


Plus a few more... Maybe having mods take part in the thread is what makes a thread that serves no purpose not only stay open but get stickied!

can't forget:

UWM 214


Edit: I might as well add that I have nothing against the thread, as I have taken apart in it at one point too. Two way moderating is BS and everyone knows that. This is a BLATANT case of two way moderating, where one side is ok and the other is wrong even though the "general" purpose is the exact same thing.

And you're just a pessimistic person who still hangs out in a place he can't stop making fun of. You have no room to be talking there either by the standard you just laid upon me.

You feeling okay? I don't think I've ever seen you pissed.

I'm sure it's difficult for someone like you to understand, but for those with high standards it's quite natural to find a place both worthy of ridicule and worth visiting.

On the other hand, you suffer from an entirely unrelated pathology:

You are apparently incapable of distinguishing between a thread in which "15 or so" friends discuss entirely personal matters which are of no interest to anyone outside of their "group" and a thread in which vastly more than 15 people discuss a much broader variety of "random" topics.

After having overlooked this exceedingly obvious distinction, you apparently decided that the best way to proceed would be to complain about the moderators making the decisions that you disagree with, and how they must be playing favorites. Even if that were true, which we have no reason to believe is the case, so what? This is a private forum, and you are not entitled to equal treatment. You don't have to like it, but this childish pouting as if you were somehow "wronged" is in fact the very embodiment of crying.

Don't let me stop you, though. In fact, your unjustified angst towards the moderators qualifies as just the type of amusing content which justifies my spending time visiting this forum.

Just take a break from your mission of "I have to make my E-Penis HUGE," and read this page: http://www.tranceaddict.com/forums/...&pagenumber=763

Not once did I say that I was wronged, but I did point towards the moderators and accuse them of having limited sight. They see what they enjoy taking part in as being good and worthy of a sticky, but they see others the preceeded this as unacceptable.
You're right, this is a private forum, but the moderators still have to play the role of impartiality. This appears to be a clear breach of that part of the job description.

Just because the scale is larger, what makes the lack of quality discussion worthy of this? Please reference back to the page I linked. That was just today, the broader topic consisted of, "nfl can eat my ass... fag... puto... ahah Jake owned you all... (football or foozball)... OMG BUTTERS!... anal probes... someone talking about being behind someone... and a repeating 'This thread rockx' "

It appears that I am wrong, the mods made the right move in stickying and supporting that thread. I apologize for wasting everybody's time.

the idea was that silly/random thoughts went in there, but to fulfill that purpose, we'd need less stupid threads, such as this one, so it ultimately fails in that respect.

This thread should be consolidated into the random talking thread. That thread needs some old timey mutiny.

I don't think a simple apology will fix the steaming pile of elephant feces you just smeared all across this thread.

TranceAddict.com/forums is not a democracy.

Therefore, its mods do not, for any reason, need to display impartiality.



I'm just sorry it seems to be such a hard concept for so many people to grasp.

Internet's not fair folks
