woah, seriously? I can assume they had their reasons but mosh certainly wasn't a serial instigator/hater by any stretch and was an enjoyable poster imo.

Read what I wrote in this thread, you will see why they banned her for even just discussing the possibility of disseminating the info. You will see why they targeted her PM's to rifle through.

Also, you will see why I'm probably going to be banned. Speaking out against the decisions of our overlords is not highly regarded :awe:

We can only wish that you had...then the mods could have banned you along with GA.

its really obvious that certain mods have large sticks up their ass, and TBH speaking out about that blatantly obvious fact should not be an issue

QFT. never seen a group of mods so overly sensitive about things that are not forum matters, but personal issues.

Our moderators are very nice, hardworking people who try to keep the forums running smoothly. I value their efforts.

for some mods, i get the impressions that the forums is the only existence they have... thus if it's personal... it's forum related.

I'm ok with the mods here, but then I don't take this shit too seriously. It's just the internet. If it gets to the point I don't like it here, I'll simply leave. No need for drama.

PMs haven't been private here for years. Expecting them to be ignored is just silly, especially if you think you're a target.

Being vacationed for talking about doing something is no different than being punished for a thought crime.

OTOH, being vacationed for telling someone that you have your screenprints all ready to be shared, or where to find them, is another animal entirely.

Not having seen the PMs in question, there's no way to know which applies.

Yeah, I don't care either. GA being gone is probably a good thing in the long run (and given his allowed attendance is probably around 50% or less of the time since he registered it won't be all that different). GA and Mosh have been around long enough to know about Loke. We all know better than to mess with the mod forums.

Two different things.

Loke broke into the mod forums.

Here, the mod forums were open to the public. Not sure what GA did, but all Mosh did was talk, via PM, about passing the info along to a member that she found to be targeted in the mod forums.

What's sad is how many will exploit something here...I don't think anyone was ignorant to the fact the mod area being visible was a mistake.

People suck

Don't care. Sounds like she was passing along information she found in the mod forums. She knew better than to play with fire.

Agree to disagree I guess.

And again, she was THINKING about passing along information.

Thought crime.

i think everyone has a natural curiosity to read something they technically aren't supposed to.

some will just read it and leave it at that, others who do suck will try to use that info for something
