Imagine being angry and defensive all the time about everything. Seems pretty faggy, imo.

Speaking of which, any chance we can get John Romero to mod with Smart? I think they would make a good power couple.
 
SWBM, think of it like this: even though everyone (seriously!) appreciates your input on how moderators go from good to bad, the mods are still bad. Because lowtax doesn't want to deal with the outcry, the only reasonable ways to get a bad mod to go away are to either humiliate them into quitting or get them on the bad side of some of the admins.

When the administration is backing these awful mods (Koala March is incredibly bad, for instance), and they're embedded in a culture that completely absolves them of guilt and shame for anything they do in pursuit of enforcing right-think, there's not much to be done to get rid of them bar doxxing or blackmail.
The mods and admins hate when you 'double down' in posts but they will always double down when the community rightfully points out shit mods or admins. Lowtax should be re-evaluating FAU as admin for recommending KM.

They're incredibly juvenile in that they never admit they are wrong about nominating terrible people to become mods. KM is just another shining example in a 16 year history of Lowtax making poor choices when it come to mods/admins. The latest bad choices were outsourcing ownership/admin of the forums FAU.

Before that, allowing Ice Queen to become a mod of gbs, Abe, Ralp, eggplant wizard, aatrek (convicted pedophile) etc. I think the only somewhat good, level headed admins were elpintogrande and fistgrrl.

Edit: forgot hogzma, who really ducked over the forums during her reign of girl power terror.
