Here. Throwback Thursday.
I miss Dorfy.
What is the big deal about this provider getting banned on points and why should anyone else care? Surely Nyr did not give her EVERY point she has received, it just so happened that he gave her the points that accumulated the total to ban her for 90 days. If just one mod gave her all the points she received, there MIGHT be a possible agenda there in one way or another.Davefree, you are missing the point. The point is men that volunteer for a position of authority for no cash money do it for altruistic reasons or they do it for a different currency. I do not feel that NYr is altruistic. Rather I feel his currency thrives where women and sex intertwine, and it sickens me. There, I said it. But, really, I've been saying it all along.
On topic...
Did she deserve the points? Maybe, maybe not, but the fact is she got them and no amount of bitching is going to take them away. Have there been posts that have been made which violated the guidelines worse and not a point or warning received by a mod? You betcha. Have there been posts that were milder than what Dorthy did and got points? Affirmative there as well.
We all know that there are more contributing factors of a poster receiving/not receiving points that go beyond just the post he/she was pointed/not pointed for by itself. The guidelines are mod interpreted and/or they get told how to interpret them. Originally Posted by davidfree986

Sure. I don't have to agree with them. Still doesn't mean men that seek power where sex, money and women converge aren't a wee bit suspect. Originally Posted by armature"So which is it?"
Le'me ask you this, why you suppose NYr hasn't hardly posted, like at all, since the Great Matter at Hand began? Originally Posted by armatureAny number of reasons, none being any more plausible than the other. The simplest one being, however: because he doesn't have to.
"So which is it?"Well, if he's doing a lot of posting in Modtardville and not out promoting and policing the site, things may not be going his way...ijs
"Sure"
Are you the OP? lol

This of course is based on the premise that there's no place he can post that you cannot see. Surely, such a place doesn't exist here. Originally Posted by FunInDFW

I'm just saying where the women and sex lines meet is a pretty sweet spot for some men. Men that range anywhere from authoritarian to predatory. And then when you mix in the legality and marginalized nature of so many in the industry - not DM, well, nastiness insures. That is why the thread was started. To suss out the abuses.
Many mods are great - I'm a fan of Torito and Duke of G but others are, well, whatever. Originally Posted by TheEccie214
