I would never complain about my boss online. Too risky. Only journal I'd complain in about that particular topic would be one with pen and paper.

I know you're talking about ag>18. And since that whole clique of members came in and started defending the member who's been banned, I've been expecting to be banned from there as retaliation. Kudos to them for not doing so, I guess.

I only participate in drama when I think people are being dumb to my friends. Which isn't often, thankfully, but as you can see, this isn't the first time.

Do you hear yourself? You're commending another community for not sinking to your level. Does this not give you any kind of pause?

[identity profile] rhapsodyinpink.livejournal.com 2011-05-06 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
Nope. Because this is fandom. Why so serious?

the mods of AG > 18 have class and maturity and know how to not get all asshurt about shit outside of a comm. might not hurt you to get some.

or, you know, keep moving the goalposts and no true scotsmanning everywhere.

The mods of ag>18 (at least one of them) were the ones that started this in the first place? So yeah no, try again.

(Anonymous) 2011-05-06 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
you have no idea what the mods of ag > 18 are like if that's what you think of them

[identity profile] allicapri.livejournal.com 2011-05-06 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
I know exactly what the mods of AG>18 are like. I have felt nothing but accepted, safe, encouraged, and respected in the last three years there. The atmosphere allows for adult discourse, disagreements, and even arguments with the attitude that we are adults who can handle ourselves and generally self-correct, and when stepping in is required it's done only to the level necessary to return the comm to an even keel.

Were I of the idea to run a community of my own, I couldn't have asked for a better model in how to do it.

(Anonymous) 2011-05-06 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
I am honestly glad that you feel that way. Not everyone else in the comm does and plenty of them feel that coming to the the mods to discuss those issues they have with them would end in much the same way that you/Tanz did above. But, you know, with less pathetic nyeh i don't care and more mocking and "eat a dick and die in a fire" first.

[identity profile] allicapri.livejournal.com 2011-05-06 06:08 am (UTC)(link)
And I honestly don't know what to tell you, much as I wish I did. There have been personal issues with mods before, as can happen, but to the best of my knowledge the members in question are not forcibly removed unless they've broken rules. Even if personal animosity remains, it doesn't leak into moderating.

People do leave, have chosen to leave because they haven't been comfortable. Sometimes they do so because of the snarky slant of the community. It's not how everyone rolls, which is fine.

I wish I could talk to you privately, but such is the way of anon posting. If you would like to contact me I'm good for confidentiality, others can tell you that, and I can try to advise. Otherwise all I can say is that I've seen how several issues have shaken out, and approaching a moderator as an adult will go a long way toward keeping communication smooth. You definitely won't get flat ass banned the way Tanz did to me. As long as you follow the rules you're fine.

I do have to go to bed, so I'm not ignoring you. But if you wanna talk, s'cool with me.

Oh please, Nethilia can be just as bitchy as Lori and you know it.

[identity profile] allicapri.livejournal.com 2011-05-06 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, she likes her rants and she has a hell of a way with words, I won't deny that.

But I have never, ever, EVER, seen her act that way as a moderator in the community, or treat a member the way tanz has, or let her personal feelings of people or anything that happens outside the confines of >18 get in the way of her mod duties or doing right by the community.

You're still there. You'll still be there after all this unless you yourself leave (or break a rule--which are specifically written out). That's the difference.

Don't even try to tell me it's the same thing. It's not.
