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
if it's true that petri is a pedophile then she/he shouldn't be on mod EM team because i genuinely feel uncomfortable knowing that we have a pedophile on EM
what are the admins and mod team going to do about it?
Empire and Togepi insist they're a pedophile, and I believe them. Logs also show they liked hentai and watched lolicon.
Apparently, nothing. Empire told Cody beforehand, Cody didn't believe her, and no one in the mod group knew what Preti was.

I'm so confused, I thought this was about Ethereal and now suddenly it's about ArcBell. Where has time gone?

Hey guys, I know none of you asked, but I just had to say, I put together something yesterday, it prints "Hello World!" I'm really proud of it. Too bad you can't do something like that, haha. Did I mention that I've got national medals in math and science?
Wait Ethernet was a role model for 2 weeks and now that he upgraded to report handler y'all are up in flames?
Lmao
People complained about her when she was unbanned.
actually.... pretty much only i did and others were just like lol it's ok, arcbell knows what he's doing
When did anyone say that with a straight face back then...
the tides only turned when arcbell tried to introduce trial mods :(

Man, you guys EXPECT your accounts to not be compromised on a website you frequent? Don't you know this is a business? Don't you know how businesses work? Are you stupid?
Anyway, I also have a custom built tool that will construct unguessable passwords. I'll send you all the .exe. I charge a fee of $1 for maintenance so if you just put your card details into the tool where requested, and then set up some general security questions like your mother's maiden name, social security number, first pet, first school etc, then I can help solve all your hacking worries.
