Staff won't edit posts unless they break the rules, you know that. If you believe otherwise then you're clearly mistaken and if you think it was OK for you to do it then that would've been just another thing to teach you about. I hope you just wrote that for dramatic effect and don't actually believe we would edit a post "to [our] liking or whatever".

The "crap" that Peter gets away with is nothing in comparison to what you did. You're comparing apples to oranges... no, to zebras. Please stop harking on that as the reason for doing the things that you did. If that truly is the reason, then quite frankly you were wrong to equate your two's actions.

He even asked to be banned, or removed, and wasn't! Yet continued to run around here stirring up crap.

Peter was punished for the things which broke the rules. If you saw anything at all which didn't align with that, you were on staff to make such errors known to us (even regular members have the "report" button to use!). Not once did I see a "Peter has done this, so I gave him an infraction" come from you—if he's such a naughty little boy as you say, why didn't you? You were on staff to moderate, Peter included. As much as he likes to be annoying, he doesn't often break the rules and seems to know very well where the line is drawn. Unlike yourself. P.S. He called Zee more than a dick in public.

And now we all start to see a little of why you are no longer on staff.

Originally Posted by spencerp Yes, I had my reasons for the being pissed off, and the insubordination. But, I should have gone about sharing my opinions and so forth, in a better way.

Absolutely, not having you around is a loss but one we're prepared to put up with because of the gains in not having you. If there was any chance that you could regain our trust, you'd be back on staff in a heartbeat. But it would be a lot of work to gain that and by recent posts, you don't seem willing.

Originally Posted by spencerp But let's allow Peter to do this, even though he's not on staff at all... But aren't we allowing things to spill into public now though? And no, I shouldn't be silenced by deleting / editing my posts, yet have yours there for all to see. I have right to speak my mind about it, just as much as you do. I had requested for this to be closed off originally, but someone had to open it for something like this to happen. Ah well.

I'm not sure who you think will be deleting your posts? Me? Open, civil, discussion is perfectly fine. You know that. Also, we don't close threads just because someone asks. Again, you know that. There is no harm having this thread open, and if there comes such a time as the posts in here become an issue then perhaps we will reconsider. That's just a part of moderating discussions which I figured you'd already know by now.

Originally Posted by spencerp I know, I know, staff is supposed to hold a level of professionalism... Bottom-line is, I was pissed off about that issue, and should have just spoken it while sober and simmered down... Well, like I'm doing now! LOL!

Absolutely and it's a shame you didn't.
