I know i’m going to regret asking, but why are they green?

Different mods are different people. Hitony took the action he did. There is a long tradition of mods not commenting on the decisions of other mods. A tradition I intend to stick to.

Why have you commented then? inconsistent again?

I got banned once for calling zaha a diving cheating ****, can you believe it!?

To be honest, I don't think the length of membership should have any bearing on a moderating decision. If someone does something that is deemed to be worthy of a ban, it shouldn't matter whether it is that poster's first post or whether they've got tens of thousands.

As it happens, I don't think what the OP did was worthy of a ban. Particularly given that a long-standing poster did EXACTLY the same thing in last year's thread, but didn't get a ban. It's decisions and inconsistencies like that which can undermine the moderating system on here, IMHO.

Really? You don't think that PPF's use of 6 wanker signs in this thread is different to a new poster using them? We know PPF - he's built an online persona; we know he's one of us. Whereas Wints was using them within 30 posts and is widely suspected of being Palace. They're the same?? Sorry - I disagree.

Some level of inconsistency is inevitable if you have more than one mod. Hell, some level of inconsistency is inevitable if you have only one mod - sometimes they'll be in a better mood than other times. I can assure you that discussions do take place in mod towers from time to time about how to deal with situations or posters; precisely with the aim of being consistent. The only thing we can be certain of is that we don't please everyone. If that's the metric we're to be measured by, we're doomed, I tell you. Doomed.

I haven't commented on whether I agree or disagree with his action. I attempted to help you understand what might have been his reasoning. I also pointed you to PM him.

Last warning: stop trolling please.

You are talking sh1t now. How can you just assume I'm Palace? Have you checked my previous posts from 2013 to present?
I also went to every home game at the Preistfield ffs!!

I agree that some level of inconsistency is inevitable, but the same 'crime' should be dealt with in the same manner, IMHO. So, I put it to you again, why does a long-standing poster who put an NSC member's name in last year's death thread not get a ban, yet the OP does for doing exactly the same thing? In a case like that, I don't think a posting history or length should have anything to do with it. Either it is an acceptable thing to post or it isn't, but banning one user and not another is not the way forward.

I am not trolling. What are you warning me about?

Depends on what you mean by stop?
Moaning or working

Now, I didn't think you were P*lace for one second, but now? Every home game at 'The' Priestfield? Yeah, right. Not sure anybody did that. I personally managed 85% I reckon and I only ever called it 'Priestfield', not 'The Priestfield'. Where did you stand?

I can't comment on what happened last year - I wasn't the mod who made that decision; or indeed the one this year. However - I have already reported that the explanation given to the ex-user this year was that his 3 day ban was for a combination of nominating BG and abuse. If the infringement last year was "merely" nominating someone, there's a difference.

Note the extensive caveating...
