Reptster

[Lucille]

There is a very large thread in the BOI detailing issues with some business practices of Reptster. Here is a poll to see how y'all feel about the issues presented.

 

[DJSlurp1200]

Out of about 14 choices on that poll. NINE are either a slap to Reptster in the face or a thumbs up to the BOI. THREE are a positive for Reptster.

I particularly love how they are worded...

Everyone knows or suspects if they do answer positives for Reptster. The mods here will see who voted that way and more than likely spread it and cause attacks on them.


Maybe Ford could start a poll just for their employees on which vehicle they would they buy?

Internal Ford Poll:
I would buy a Toyota - and would risk losing my job?
I would buy a Honda - and would risk losing my job?
I would buy a Chevy - and would risk losing my job?
I AM GOING TO BUY a FORD - I love FORD and would not drive anything else

Wow, your opinion of the mods is that low, that you think they would have to stoop to "tattling" on how people voted to cause attacks people???

I think you gotta be pretty paranoid to come up with a scenario like that.

 

[Shadera]

Not to be an instigator, but I've seen a mod or two attacking someone for religious beliefs so it's not all that farfetched.

 

[Cat_72]

Do tell, which mods?

Before I address the above part of your quote I just have to ask.... is that all you do now is come to this forum to troll and stir crap?

Now unlike you and your master (David) I am a REAL man. I own my words, admit my wrongs, pay my debts, dont slander others and last but not least I call it like I see it regardless of what ANYONE else thinks. Just like with that poll above, where I voted that Reptster has good points. NOW COME ATTACK ME EVERYBODY!!!! You are a joke boy just like your master.

You are not only attacking this site, but the ethics and integrity of the Mods and the users here. You aint nothing but a punk ass kid who is still wet behind the ears that has no clue what the meaning of truth or integrity is.

Come on, back that up with some proof.

Perhaps that is the way you run things on YOUR forum, bud, but that isn't done here. It CAN'T be done here. Unless the creator of the poll sets it up so that the voters are visible to the public, I am the only one who can see who voted. And trust me, I REALLY don't give a crap either way about how someone is voting on this issue. So as for the "everyone" in your comment, I would be truly concerned if I associated with a bunch of people where "everyone" were so completely off base about their assumptions. You may want to consider changing your circle of friends before their cluelessness rubs off on you....

That being said, if your intentions for being on this site is to be a malicious troll, your time here will be VERY short lived. You can be pro-Reptster, and more power to you. But you will NOT use this site to spout off derogatory crap about the mods here, myself, nor this site. If you don't like something about this site, the mods, or myself, then in a civil and professional manner you are welcome to take it to the Feedback forum to be discussed. Anywhere else and you will be signed, sealed and delivered as a TROLL. If things are slow on your own forum, don't bring your CRAP here.

I do hope I have made this perfectly clear to you.

That all being said, I don't believe this thread is really appropriate in this forum. Since it names a particular entity, I believe it is more appropriate to be on the BOI.

When posts are made in hell, Mods are no longer MODs in that forum. Just about anything GOES.

I do believe that is the big issue here. Either he simply cannot grasp the fact that there really are people out there with true integrity, or he simply has no clue what it really is.

Either way, he needs a learnin'.

Just for the record, mods do NOT have to give up their right to personal opinions on this site when they become mods. They are free to act and react just as any other normal registered member here. They just CANNOT use the powers of being a mod in such discussions to control a conversation or otherwise penalize another member with an opposing opinion in that conversation. Yes, I know this runs contrary to how a lot of other sites empower their moderators, but that is not how this site is run. They will either be fair, or be gone. That is why I have taken such great care and consideration in the choosing of the people I want to be site mods here.

I'm not saying I agree with anything else that has been said, and I usually just go with the flow, but I think in this day and age attacks against someone's religion should be off limits no matter who you are. To me that's the same as slewing racist comments. Not everyone is a Christian, and just because someone has different beliefs than you do doesn't mean you should rip them apart over it. Who cares what others believe as long as it doesn't affect you.

And true to the pack nature of this place, I'm getting ripped apart even for bringing it up. Yes, let's run off everyone who doesn't think the same way we do!

Asking you to provide proof to back up your accusations is attacking you?

Point is....this has nothing to do with the mods being able to perform their dutes in a proper manner. They HAVE the ability to separate their personal feelings from what they do as mods.

The people who were chosen as mods here were chosen for those qualities, and because they are ethical people. Slurpie's post was a flat out slap in the face to all of them, especially Rich.

I am assuming you are talking about the crazy psychic, psionic, werewolf vampire parasite lady with the magic stones that have spirits in them?

That's not a religion....it's a mental disorder.

This I completely agree with. What I DO have the problem with is that it's turned into a new-age bashing gleefest which is unfair and a slap in the face to those lurking in this community who believe in that stuff. Hell or not, it shouldn't matter. Is it okay to sling the "N" word back there, then?

And Sam, knock it off. You know exactly what I'm talking about so keep your eye poking stick pointed elsewhere. I'm not biting.

Crystals and Wicca definitely are a religion. I agree that most of that other stuff is...err...out there.

No the %#$# I DONT know what you are talking about. You accused moderators here of bashing people for their religion. Myself and Cat asked for proof. And you responded by saying that you were being attacked. Asking for proof is not being attacked. What part of reality are you not grasping?

I'll give you the Wicca thing. Crystals, maybe but you're pushing the envelope calling that a religion. You will notice that no one has been derisive about either of those. I do not equate crystals to Guardian stones with spirits trapped in them. The rest of the crap she is spewing is fair game as far as i am concerned if she is expecting to be taken seriously.

Of course, Sam. I should expect this sort of reply from you. I don't bite and give you the fight you want, so you question my grasp on reality. Predictable. -yawn-
