Do you guys think the mods have alternate accounts? Non-mod accounts where they don't have to worry about people telling them how unfair their latest moderation was. An account where they can just mingle with the rest of us normal people.

Maybe some mods actually create troll accounts! I mean, they must know how to violate the ToU without getting perma-banned, right?

It's a conspiracy... :cry:

It's a vast conspiracy. FYI , there is only one real mod. The rest are just alt mod accounts.

Why not? When is the last time you saw a moderator create a normal topic? One that wasn't stickied?

They need to be on their mod accounts when they're on the forums. If they're here, it's their job to be a mod.

I make threads all the time, just rarely on the OT. I'm one of the more prolific posters on the GGD board and I rarely moderate over there aside from closing threads that should be in stickies.

Maybe the moderators secretly get payed if they meet a certain number of moderations. And if they're not getting enough to make the quota, they create other accounts to enrage us and make us break the rules!! :o

Or they could create accounts to purposely break the rules then mod the alt. It's diabolical.

Wouldn't that be the day... payment, as in money? Would be nice. :lol: I've never had an alt, but many mods and even admins.... maybe they do? :o & if so, one would imagine that we kinda already know who they are. None would ever hear the end of it if a mod's alt got suspended or banned though. :P

You mean do we have accounts that we post on incognito? I can't answer for them but I have a few. Some for testing Moderations and one I did post with in this very forum as well but not to break the ToU. What kind of precedent would that set?

I often wonder if mods get a mod itchy finger and just create an alt for the sole purpose of moderating and banning - you know, like target practice.
