Twistedsanity Posted March 8, 2017 Report Share Posted March 8, 2017 That's a bit like Complaining about the way the government run the country, there are processes in place but nobody gives a monkeys about your own personal gripe, it's a case of "close the door on your way out" I'm afraid to say, however you are free to start your own forum anytime.you like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDog Posted March 8, 2017 Report Share Posted March 8, 2017 anyone ever had or felt they they had a reason to report/complain about a moderator on here? and how are the mods chosen and who by Your questions are simply rhetorical and undeserving of an answer until you explain the circumstances behind your post.

jam1e Posted March 8, 2017 Report Share Posted March 8, 2017 (edited) Absolutely not, the Mods on here are all very fair, pragmatic and balanced (unlike another shooting forum I frequent!!). At the end of the day they have a job to do and need to ensure that PW operates with the boundaries of acceptable use. They do a top job in my view. Not sure which other forums you frequent, but a 'mate' of mine had a private conversation on another forum (Not PW) using pm with another member, after that member allegedly put him down publicly regarding his knowledge. But did it in a condescending way. My mate said he used swear words, but not at the other party, just about the disagreement. He said a mod pm'd him several minutes later and told him not to use swear words in a pm. My mate challenged the request asking why, considering it was a pm, and he had not insulted the other party, but used swear words as he was angry about being insulted by the other party publicly . Without warning he was banned for 5 years! He wasn't even warned that he would be banned if he swore again. So i don't think all things or people are equal. But having said that, that's just part of normal life. It's not what you know, it's who you know. But on the whole I think the mods on PW do a great job, especially as it's for free..... EDIT. I would just like to point out that the incident above regarding a friend of mine, and pm's, did NOT happen on Pigeon Watch. Apologies if my explanation implied this.

TIGHTCHOKE Posted March 8, 2017 Report Share Posted March 8, 2017 (edited) As above, a friend of mine was doing a very similar thing on an aviation forum and he was contacted to warn him about his language. He complained that the PMs were not private, we left that forum. Edited March 8, 2017 by TIGHTCHOKE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yod dropper Posted March 8, 2017 Report Share Posted March 8, 2017 (edited) Interesting to hear about pms not being private. That was the rumour (and I was explicitly told the administrator could see and did look at pms) on another forum I frequent but couldn't quite believe it. Still not really sure though.

Zapp Posted March 8, 2017 Report Share Posted March 8, 2017 We can't read PMs on PW other than our own. I can say that categorically as someone with admin rights on the forum. Viking, if there's actually a problem pm Teal or whoever of us you feel happy talking to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The great man trump himself, says he doesn't trust email, he likes it written down on paper, signed, and sent by courier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyska Posted March 8, 2017 Report Share Posted March 8, 2017 I complained once and my sheep flock was dyed pink and my dog was found in a gimp suit in the garage. nothing electronically sent or spoken is private, anybody who thinks it is, is kidding themselves. The great man trump himself, says he doesn't trust email, he likes it written down on paper, signed, and sent by courier. That's still nowhere near private though...

viking Posted March 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2017 i didnt fully explain myself in my first post because i couldnt be bothered explaining what had gone on, and all the ins and outs of it all, but i will just point out that its not me who has the problem, its not even anyone on this site nor obviously any of the mods on here, as said the mods do a thankless task for free, its just a mate whos a member on another forum who has been banned for sort of abusing another member in response to some abuse he got, only he used a lot of swear words in his response even though they were filtered out, he was told that his language and constant use of it was not becoming of the site, he seems to think the lad he abused is a mate of one of the mods and that his ban is not fair or rite, , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
