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

You realize he's been a role mod for more than 2 weeks, right? And the only difference between actual mods and role mods are doing reports and keys, none of which make it easier to obtain passwords.
I do realize. After three direct dodges I guess you're not taking the bet you spineless wimp. Condescending as hell but can't back anything up when you're called on it.

Also, unlike some of the fools who use the same password for every website, I know a thing or two about account security. I utilize a custom-built tool that constructs an unguessable password which can't be obtained via a script, and change it regularly.
1. I never questioned this.
2. I've done the same for all of my internet accounts that matter.
3. Constructing a script to do so should not be a prerequisite for continued use of the site, nor should taking security measures regularly not taken for websites containing much more sensitive information.

Randomly generating a 20 char password every week for use on Epicmafia.com alone (even using combinations of LastPass & scripts & similar) should not be a prerequisite for an epicmafia.com account.

Ah yes, because all that matters is money.
so you going to take that bet that arcbell's going to be demodded within 2 weeks or no?

or respond to the numerous other points showing that either you're an idiot or arcbell got a hold of your password (more willing to be the former)

let's not blame the users who were targeted lmao
Sure glad I've got to use a custom-built too to construct unguessable passwords and change it constantly

This is some weird victim blaming thing going on here

Your epicmafia password is not your e-social security number y'all

U can press like 3 buttons and make a new one lol
Pm's are meant to be safe, old users who i havent seen in a while have pm-ed me thier address/phone numbers to catchup

thats totally okay for arcbell to see and put down in his microsoft word document where he catalogs all user information
Anyone r who sends their address via the pm of a historically unsecure site such as this deserves all the XL pizzas they have coming to them
Yea, people who havent been here for 3 years and just want to message an old friend should feel unsafe via sending thier phone numbers through a 'private message function'

this site wasnt like this before but im glad you're okay with this new behaviour
