Question RE: Ethereal

Giga13about 10 years ago

The question posed in this thread is not necessarily one of the moderation team, the site owner lucidrains/Phillip Wang, or other moderators/admins on the moderation team of this website.

People are calling for Ethereal's head because they were recently promoted from role moderator to moderator. The people calling for Ethereal to be demodded are generally viewing and accusing Ethereal as a predator.

My question is, if you guys care so much about Ethereal being a potential predator, should you not be arguing that Ethereal should be site banned? (Personally, I don't think Ethereal should be site banned. She has done her time for being banned and is currently a very big help for the moderators and cheating investigation team, in my opinion.) Your argument seems to not want to rid the website of possible predators, but to just make sure they don't become moderators. It doesn't really make much sense to me.

And even if Ethereal is demodded, guess what? She's still going to help with Cheating cases and finding banned users... nothing is going to change (except that she won't be able to do reports). Is that really going to be a sigh of relief for all of you?

So if Ethereal is demodded, what difference is it to you people if she's still allowed to be on the website...?

EDIT:

I am in favour of demodding Ethereal to please the community fwiw (I was before I even made this thread), but if we do that I don't really get why they are even allowed to be on the site anyways. I'm seeing these arguments I just don't agree with them; potential is potential at the end of the day, and I believe Ethereal should be allowed to stay on the site

hey tay pls explain why u name dropped us despite the fact that neither of us defended her. who are you parroting your information from?
can u answer my question lol
Giga13about 10 years ago
denial
giga, i don't think anyone has accused her of being a predator btw.
many people have in the past day alone actually

denial
they just do not want to have to deal with the possibility that she could given her history

lets just say they were at one point a confirmed pedo and are no longer one: do you believe they should continue to be a moderator? if your answer is yes and can't see why people have a problem with it then that is the main issue

they don't have to be perma banned off the site unless they're actively 'hunting' for people to harass so please stop bringing this up as an argument for keeping them as a moderator because 'its the same thing if shes still on the site anyways'. you in fact have expressed that moderators should be held to a higher 'standard' and to some people that standard is never have been a pedo before
A mod-pedophile can PM a user.
A pedophile can PM a user.

Both of these things are true!

The potential is still there!!!!

Can we get someone into bestiality as a mod next? If we're going to make ourselves a disgraceful website, might as well go all the way

This pitchforking obviously won't end when Petri is de-modded, so can she just be banned (again)

No one who has been on the website for less than 5 years is allowed to administrate it. Despicable.

Sammie should be banned.

Her being modded brought to light the disgusting history that she had, which raises massive alarms to our fair community.
