[QUOTE="Reed_Bowie"]

There is a double standard in life. That is all I will tell you.

Skull-Fire

Oh, ok. So are you saying we should just accept it, then? Like when people say power corrupts, which basically gives an excuse to anyone who abuses their power. Like, yeah, they could do some actual good but hey, it's ok, because power corrupts. There's your standard answer that didn't take any thinking whatsoever and will never solve anything.

I never told you what to do or not to do. I just told you what it is.

GC, I think we are all confused.

Why not just say what you found so offensive.

To be honest, I don't even remember exactly what it was that that incited this thread. I just remember thinking, "This isn't appropriate for a mod." It was probably minor swearing that wouldn't be allowed on OT, but it made me wonder if they were to go further.

But if minor swearing is allowed on the other forum, then what is the problem? He still abides to the rules.

Well I don't, but the public generally does.

I don't really care what the public thinks sometimes.

Not necessarily. If a cop were to unreasonably beat a man, it would reflect negatively on the police department.

No it doesn't. You don't judge an entire organization based on a handful of individuals.

To be honest TC, if you are trying to get a Mod in trouble, you are probably just wasting your time. Even if you screencap something negative the mod wrote, there is no proof that it was not an imposter trying to give him a bad reputation.

[QUOTE="Genetic_Code"]If people want to act like a bigot, they should do that anonymously, that way it wouldn't reflect poorly off of GameSpot.airshocker

It reflects poorly on the individual, not the website.

Like, say he was a secret Klan member or a Nazi, would you report it to the admistration? Whenever I'm on TDH, I see some horrible things (not in that league though) written by GS mods. I don't get why they would post such things. The mods should go through a tougher vetting process. They should be respectable both on OT and off OT. If a mod was a child molestor in real life, he should have his modship revoked. In fact, his account should be banned. We don't need thugs on this board. We have enough here that barely pass.

I would definitely report it.

1. Being a KKK Member or a Nazi is not illegal in the United States, it is allowed in the first ammendment, it is just discourged by many.
2. If a mod was a child molestor IRL, you should contact the police, not the GS administration.

edit: and besides, MODS enforce the ToU, not the State and Federal Law. If they break the State/Federal law it has nothing to do with gamespot, since they are not being role models for following the Law, but for following the ToU.
