Who may that be exactly? not you for shure That is because people are lazy and unmotivated. this is the interwebz after all Thats being a mod for ya also, you wont gain support by calling the users a bunch of retards (paraphrasing) But it's so much fun, and that is what this thread is for amiright? dont post up a thread for people to bitch about you the tell them don't bitch about you. You make yourself look stupid. (which, i'll give you one free compliment and say that you aren't, next ones gonna cost ya <.<)

I tell you what, I feel the need to agree.
I'll tell you why:
I rarely see any helpful posts, ever. Using the mass PM system for basically just spamming is annoying. Just a general lack of respect for others ideas.
This is just my view, but I am joining the "Official Hate Club".

I don't care how much he wants to change this forum and how much "we don't". What I care about is the reputation of this place, and he makes it seem like a terrible place. He is just a big bully, and when people call him out on his bad personality, he tries to insult them by making fun of their looks.
I don't care that he is Jewish or a New Yorker or anything. I care that he is a bully.

Alex, you're missing the point. I'll go off your analogy. What's the one thing they fought you about bullies in 1st grade. Ignore them and they'll go away.
This is for all of you. Stop bitching about Asher. You're making this worse and much more fun for him (and me)

Based on the mass PM - I'm one of the few that's allowed to hate on him because I'm the one that started the Wiki Cleanup Project.
And no - helping out does NOT count towards being allowed to be a hater - it doesn't take effort to mark and delete spam - it DOES take effort to set it all in motion.
So - I'm allowed to hate on Asher, and I'm not going to, because he's RIGHT

I get to hate on Asher because he gets to hate on me for being a Frenchie. As for the rest of you, Get involved in projects, i will help if there is help needed, but there are very few projects that involve my skillsets.

Your logic in your mass PM is faulty - so I find I have ample right to complain about it Asher. People are allowed to complain about your insults as a troll without having set in motion a project. However, your logic does support that nobody who has not set in motion a project, etc. etc. is allowed to complain about the fact that you're trolling.
Asher's a troll - he's always been a troll. Lately his trolling has gone to far in terms of how he trolls (the insults ore more derogatory then before, the trolling is more upfront and forward, the trolling is non-discriminatory and scares away new people, the list goes on). But really, Asher was elected mod because he trolled. Everyone who voted for Asher, and you do know who you are, knew him because he trolled. He also had good ideas, and everyone liked his ideas. But really - he's always had good ideas. Until he started trolling though - his ideas weren't taken for much heed. He had to hack Dan's account to get his last idea rolling for goodness' sake.
So - yes, complain about specific insults, or how bad a person Asher might be, or at least how bad you think he might be. But know that you elected him. And that you're the reason he trolls. Just about every single one of you who is currently complaining about him, brought him to this level of trolling. So while you might blame Asher for the moon's problems, you have no one to blame but yourself for Asher.
On a side note: If you have problems with posts that he writes - report them. If you want the other mods you elected to "deal with him" then you have to go through the right process. If everyone thinks Asher's a bad mod, then he'll get demoted. But, as far as anything official? Nothing has happened, only a few of his posts have been reported. There's been no suggestions about removing him from mod. Really - the only complaining that has been done, has just been posted in threads where Asher trolls. And while yes - most of the Admin/Mod staff reads those threads, we have no responsibility about them until things are reported or suggested.

And while yes - most of the Admin/Mod staff reads those threads, we have no responsibility about them until things are reported or suggested. So you're not responsible for an acceptable level of decency in the threads (in the case of the worst posts)? I see, interesting. So apparently a mod at SPOTM is different from a mod at every other forum. I thought that maybe some things didn't have to be reported or suggested, that some things are implied when it comes to what is appropriate on a forum and what is not. Apparently not. It is now obvious that this forum seriously suffers from lack of forum rules. Common decency obviously isn't enough. And do I have to suggest that too for you to actually do something about it? Also, I didn't vote for Asher, so you can't say I have myself to blame for him being in charge. EDIT: I know there are "guidelines", but they don't explicitly deal with types of inappropriate behaviour

Gah, I hate when people say "You were responsible". The only way I could ever be responsible for this was because I didn't vote enough...? I didn't vote for him, so it is not my fault.

theres nothing in the guidelines about "trolling" per se if you see something offensive feel free to report it but once again weve come full circle. you should note that i dont troll the project section.,..because the project section is what im here for. if SPOTM were in "project mode" as i said i would probably stop trolling...not holding myself at bay...i just wouldnt want to troll. as of now SPOTM has absolutely nothing going for it...so i see no reason not to troll
