    "no, I don't contribute to the forum. I try to keep it a little neat and tidy, I don't give a **** what you wear or how you look. I don't care about you "

    As said by Mordeth, mod of Fashion / Appearance.
    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=2954578&postcount=18


    If the moderators aren't chosen by their areas of interest on Boards may I ask how they are chosen? On other forums I have frequented mods are chosen by what they know about. That way they can actually help people out and correct any mistakes. It's like having people who don't go to Trinity modding the Trinity forums. A mod with no knowledge or interest in the subject of the forum they are meant to be moderating will not be able to contribute to the forum in any way.

    No, having people who don't wear clothes mod Fashion/Appearance would be like that.

    And what are people like me then?

    People who try help others out when they can? How many people have I assisted in finding items of clothing they want, for example? I contribute to the forum and if you want people like me out then what exactly do you wish the forum to become?

    i have avatars disabled.

    No you don't.

    ladylotts, I was kidding. I don't dislike you, but I did ban you. I'm trying as best I can to live with it, I suggest you do the same.

    Lol, how the hell can mordeth mod that forum ?

    The guy who ladylotts was replying to was far more offensive........

    Mordeth seems to be one of the least useful mods i've ever seen. Even now he's trying to be a smart ass and making sarcastic comments. Just another case of give some randommer who has a lot of posts mod power by the looks of it

    In the "Irish Fashion" thread in Fashion / Appearance the following post:

    "I know those A&F types. I went to school with those types. It is not about the clothes, it's about the attitude. You're one of those poser types who is so insecure he feels like he has to use his social class to put others down. You have money, you have a posh accent. Big deal! There are so many people like that around these days. If someone dresses in a full tracksuit and wears hooped earrings that does not make them a bad person. Not everyone wants to pay $40 shipping for a pair of tracksuit bottoms.

    Do yourself a favour and get your head out of your a$s."

    Has been replaced by:
    "blah blah blah

    poser blah blah blah

    banned for a week

    blah"

    Very civilised.

    you know if you'd pm'd me and explained/apologised I might have unbanned you but after this whole affair, if I unban you.. alot of people I (or indeed any mod) ban from now on will just look to this as an example of what to do.

    Boards doesn't negotiate with terrorists :)

    Do you realise what an arrogant jerk youre making yourself sound like Mordeth?

    Her vendetta here is obviously to point out what an awful mod you are, rather than just to get un-banned by whining.

    You didn't PM me to let me know I was banned. I didn't know who the mod was or why I'd been banned.

    "What Are Moderators?

    Moderators oversee specific forums. They generally have the ability to edit and delete posts, move threads, and perform other manipulations. Becoming a moderator for a specific forum is usually rewarded to users who are particularly helpful and knowledgeable in the subject of the forum they are moderating."

    From the FAQ.

    So how did you expect me to apologise to anyone when I didn't know what had happened or who had done it?

    a user has a complaint about a mod.
    an unidentified mod at the time.

    they should have a right to recourse/explanation of they felt the ban was unfair.
    since they couldnt identify the mod they have the right to use feedback for answer.

    whats your point?
