(Anonymous) 2007-11-25 01:31 pm (UTC)(link)First of all If I have a problem with the Catfight forums, no I don't need to come over and say so. You guys enjoy your little hate fest. I do not need to register at the forum and then post that fact that I don't like it.....for that opinion to be valid. I don't have anything specific against the forum. It's not my thing but WTF, if it's yours, go to town. I'm not knocking the Catfight forum outright.
BUT the fact that moderators of the Arena publicly make "hate lists" on the catfight boards is the most ignorant thing ever. Not to the individual members, because no one is perfect and almost all of the rants I saw there are valid. It only reflects badly on the Arena that they tote the sugar coated environment then allow someone like her to mod it. You'd think cross-member-mods would have enough class to keep hate lists and specific shit like that to themselves.
I've seen threads where people inquire as to who complained about whom, and other specific information that comes from PM's that perhaps Arena mods playing on the catfight forums should be keeping semi-private between Arena mods. Having the catfight forum to rant is one thing. Having it air the Arena's dirty laundry when Arena members think they can trust the Arena mods with their Arena-related problems, who in turn post the nitty gritty is a breach of Arena member trust. If you can't go to ANY moderator and trust them to keep their mouths shut about what exactly you sent them in a PM.......then they're really fucking piss poor moderators and it DOES affect how the Arena runs.
Well for one thing, you can not be a good or ethical moderator of one forum then participate in a "who do you hate the most" thread in another forum when you're naming off people who you supposedly "mod fairly" in the other forum. You can't tell me Loa rattles off her list of "most hated people on the Arena" she would then approach any problems or situations involving those people on the Arnea fairly. She is a human being with opinions, and you can't fault her for that. However if she wanted people to think she was a good mod, and not add to the pony drama, she would AT LEAST keep up appearances by not participating in outright hate-fest like that. Nor would she make comments to members in the catfight community like "oh well, if you see her do that again, PM me the link on the Arena and I'll deal with it". Wow. Sorry. That's not proper moderation. Not by any stretch of the imagination. So, you're either an Arena moderator or you're not, but you can't have your cake and eat it too. At the very least PRETEND to be a decent moderator.
And sorry.......this isn't a ridiculous accusation, would you like to see my sources? She claimed to hate, or agreed to comments made stating specific people were an "Inbred Mafia", in the "who pisses you off the most" thread. I'm not going to go through the 166 pages of comments but I'm on page 5 and she's already mentioned 2 or 3 very specific members of the Arena she hates and why.
She also goes on to say "whos been talked too" on the Arena, what for, and often posts the contents of her PM's. That is one piss poor moderator. Sorry, but true. Even though she asks the CF members to be civil she's basically okaying a hot button debate on the Arena THROUGH the Catfight forums when she mods BOTH. That isn't quite kosher.
Hate thread HERE (http://www.ponylandscatfight.com/viewtopic.php?t=1146&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0)
Specific mentioning of who she hates HERE (http://www.ponylandscatfight.com/viewtopic.php?p=19659#19659)
Okay then. That just makes her a VERY POOR MODERATOR. Of anything. In any fandom.
