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

Point is : WHEN LUCID DOES SOMETHING,DO THE OPPOSITE.

If lucid unbans someone? Ban him on the spot.

If Lucid Bans someone:? Unban him,

HELL, I WOULD GO UP AGAINST LUCID IF I HAVE THE CHANCE. LUCID ALMOST NEVER MAKES THE RIGHT DECISION IN EM POLITICS.

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

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)
I doubt it unless luci intervenes.
Aaand Lucid was the one to unban him in the first place, right?
Of course. It's why I stepped down.
