Sachy please tell me how you know dez knew he cheated, I'm not saying that you're wrong, I just want to know how you know


do you really think admins selecting moderators don't do a background check?? if they don't that sucks and i think they should start.




I believe that they should yes, I don't know how they did it here.

"He said the right things to her questions and seemed to exhibit the behaviors that would make for a good mod"

Good to see you think a cheater showed the right behavior to make a good mod. This is why good mods don't exist.

Im going to talk to some people tonight and figure this all out. I do think this is being blown a little out of proportion nevertheless.

There will be a resolution soon, I just ask that everyone please be patient since I'm running on little sleep and am swamped right now

It's probable the admins had no idea Gaf was banned for cheating. :^)


I still stand by this assumption ^^

Also what do you mean "fix this " <


take away the precedent that cheaters can't become mods, since somehow gafgarion is mod material

I'm at work now but I'll fix this when I get home. I think this is just a misunderstanding and we can sort it out. There's no need for everyone to step down.



You can't help but feel bad for bronto whenever stuff like this happens tbh

All he wants is to make everything ok

Well this is news to me. I didn't know that gaf cheated. I wasn't there when dez interviewed him. I skimmed through the chat and didn't read closely last night. I saw that he said the right things to her questions and seemed to exhibit the behaviors that would make for a good mod, so I said okay. I genuinely never knew he cheated. He was recommended to me by another mod and I believe he was discussed briefly in mod chat one day sometime a week or so ago. Cheating was never mentioned.

I'm at work now but I'll fix this when I get home. I think this is just a misunderstanding and we can sort it out. There's no need for everyone to step down.

I am however largely at fault here if he did cheat. I am embarrassed that I was so negligent during the hiring process and I feel pretty awful about it. I am sorry to my mods who I admittedly have left out of the mod selection process quite a bit. I'm always open to suggestions for new mods and meeting with them. I started moving away from having open conversations as on earlier iterations of this team, it was very difficult to mod people as mods felt they could veto people they simply didn't like, and it made my job more difficult. The team has changed for the better largely in the past month and I should be involving them more in the process.

This is really my fault, I simply don't have enough time right now to do as good of a job as I need to. Please be patient and allow me to sort this out. I found out both of my jobs will be ending in about two months today and now this - I'm a bit flustered but please just bear with me and we can talk it over.


i didn't read but the first line, you took your laptop with you to the bathroom?


probably his phone
