If you had moderator elections, then people could elect their moderators based on what the residents of various forums would like. The OT would elect lenient moderators, and maybe Civ4 would elect more strict moderators.Originally posted by Ming
It's a lose lose situation for us...
Plus, then the responsibility is squarely with the people, not with you, and thus Winston-like whining would cease.Comment

Um, yeah. That wouldn't ever happen. It's not our site. Thus it is not a democracy. See:Originally posted by Tacc

We were a bit reluctant to say it in this past, but this a privately owned forum, not a public square. It is our right to accept or not accept certain kind of discussion or certain kind of users. We will be seting the rules and enforce them as we see fit. We believe in freedom of speech, but again, this is not a public square(there are laws that apply to public squares too, but that's another issue ). We hope that you understand our position.The Apolytoner formerly known as Alexander01

... And as with any democracy, the people would never be quite happy with those in charge and on the one hand long for the next elections so they can vote for someone better, yet on the other hand not really care because they're all the same anyway.

I deny it my seal of approvalOriginally posted by Alexander I
In light of recent behavior on the Forums, I recommend that the co-owners/mods follow Hammurabi's example and establish a visible and viable Code of Laws/Conduct for standardization's sake. While it is a sad thing that such actions should have to be taken, IMHO I feel it (or something similar) is currently necessary.
Violations Could Include:
Trolling outside the OT
Spamming
Purposefully trying to get on the Mods' Nerves
Other inappropriate behavior
Punishments Could Include:
Warnings
Restrictions
Bans
Perma-bans
