You know, after getting a good nights sleep and looking back and reading some of the stuff that's been said here, I've noticed something.
You're telling me that I shouldn't let personal matters get in the way of being a moderator (which they haven't. The one time I banned Messenger was for posting something innapropriate about me, I'll have you know. And from now on, I get permission to ban people.), but then you turn around and place the blame on me because you have something personal against me. Again, I only delete things that need to be deleted.
Now, compromise is needed. I'm starting to sound like a broken record here, but things have got to change so people can stop complaining. Heck, I still haven't figured out what it is you're wanting me to do.
now granted of course it's hard to see what a person is really thinking from my monitor because i'm only seeing the forum from my perspective, but there have been times that you have come across as harsh to certain members when it was not necessary.
the main reason that i'm not a real fan of being harsh in real life is because i was picked on a lot when i was a kid, and i hate seeing people "bully" others. now i'm not saying that you were bullying, but one could interpret it that way.

Messenger said an innappropriate comment about you because of your relationship outside the forum. Therefore, you banned her for an innappropriate comment that was caused by your personal opinions of each other in real life.
That translates into a personal problem.
And no, we didn't place the blame soley on you, it only seemed that way because you were the only one responding. I've told you before, I can understand that alot of it isn't caused by you (ie: the thread in 'Announcements'). However, you do tend to over-react at times.
What type of 'compromise' are you looking for? I don't really see anything to compromise about. We were just sick and tired of you and Messenger bickering with each other, and asked it to stop.

mitch, i've known you for years, and what snake says is true. you do tend to overreact at times. not just on the forum; not to sound critical, but you do blow some things well out of proportion at times, now i suffer from that problem myself so i cannot really give you a solution to that.
all i can say is that in the future just take a deep breath before acting on something; thats what i try to do myself. however, i usually fail in that endevor so yeah

I hardly consider myself a bully, Kaney. And I don't need to stop and take a deep breath. I assure you, I am as calm as can be.
And the compromise I'm looking for can also be traced back to what Kaney said. He thinks I overreact to things. I don't think so. I don't see what I overreacted to. I mean, sure, I banned her for a bit, but that was just to shut her up and keep her from making things worse. What would you have done if you were in a similar situation?
I also wouldn't mind an apology from Messenger, but I won't hold my breath.
i know that you aren't a bully mitch, i was simply stating that one could interpret it as that. now, basically i just wish that you two wouldn't always be at each others throats all the time.
i don't care who starts it; let's all just be happy in our own little way

Ok, it's not so much that you overreact; it's more that you take unnecessary action. Like banning her, you banned her due to a personal problem. It was a biased decision. It personally attacked you and you didn't like it, so you banned her. And are you suggesting that to keep this from getting worse we ban you two? If I made my decisions based on the way you made that one, that's what would have happened, but I'm not willing to do that. The point of all this is is for both you and messenger to stop bickering and fighting on the forum. If you want to do it, do it on AIM or in real life, not on here. No one here wants to waste his or her time reading that. So please, just take care of it elsewhere. That's all we're asking.
