Posts from Dialogues with Moderators
Auto-translated
As for what we wrote in the private thread – yes, as moderators, we managed to do that. However, I didn't start it. First. Second – everyone had time to express their opinion. You all did. Now, here are the results. You get what you asked for.
If you have any questions, ask, and I'll answer. But if this continues, I'll ask the Creator to delete the thread completely!!!! And after that, you can write a collective petition to remove my moderator powers... That's it.
I wish everyone would use their brains.

I think it's important not only the "type of violation," but also the situation in which this violation occurred. But trolling should be penalized, simply because it is becoming an incredibly common practice. And people feel a sense of impunity.
And, of course, when unable to answer for their words and actions, they start using arguments like "we have a heroic forum here, so take your mafia and go to the forest!!" and "all complaints should be directed to the creator!!"
The ideal of moderation.
Except the ones we've made
No one is obligated to explain anything to the user. Read the rules.

Yes, the situation can be described as "Zubru was told the truth." Everything said about you is trolling, and if it's also well-argued, then it's an insult.
And of course, when unable to answer for your words and actions, you start using arguments like "this is a hero forum, so take your mafia elsewhere!" and "all complaints should be directed to the creator!"
This is the ideal of moderation.
You can find a dozen similar outbursts from you, WisTrit.
That's probably why many receive unjustified points. Sometimes it's just random, sometimes someone doesn't like them. It's not good.
Although, I can provide justification for each of my actions. Whether you agree with it or not is subjective, for the reason I mentioned above.
However, I agree that points should be periodically removed. Perhaps moderators should be given the ability to remove them.
It's true that what's done is done. In the end, everyone is satisfied, so there's no need to argue.
But the coordinators should move all the off-topic discussions to the "Discussions with Moderators" thread.
P.S.
By the way, you could always ask questions there, like "why did I receive points for this post?" At the very least, it would be the right place to ask them.

If you can't tell the difference between trolling and something else, then it just reflects poorly on you.
OH MY GOD, IT’S TROLLING

You apparently don't quite understand the meaning of the word "trolling" on the internet; if someone teases or says that someone is wrong, it doesn't mean that everyone suddenly becomes a TROLL and comes to destroy ХВ and humiliate everyone.
You acted inappropriately, were guided by personal motives, personal dislike, and your own sense of self-importance. You were pointed out about this – you started giving points to everyone for trolling and insults.
You also didn’t take responsibility for your words, constantly referring to the Creator.
Double standards, what can you do? Especially considering that there is no less trolling on your part, and most of your actions as a moderator can be characterized as trolling and insults.
And who among those who received points would agree that they deserved them? Thus, the point of explaining to the user where he violated the rules is lost.

If after this statement someone still considers you a reasonable moderator, then perhaps you should provide links to

So it seems like someone was behind this, and that someone even confirmed that they were involved. Or did they do it together?
I don't know why this was brought up.
And of course, the highlight of the show, a blatant insult:
/topic/at/508522/
As well as reporting on the Naire violation. That’s all; I didn’t flag anyone else.
You probably don't quite understand the meaning of the word "trolling" on the internet.
The opposition is sending out another S.O.S.!
Amko, don't delete this!
I will also support Arandor. This whole thing with deleting threads reeks of personal dislike. Who was so bothered by these polls? Why was the thread deleted without even talking about it with Arandor (who is also a moderator, by the way)? At least that's disrespectful. 2-3 people decided that it wasn't according to the rules (although I haven't seen any rule stating: You can't create polls) and they just deleted the topic because they felt like it. This is arbitrary; you still need to show respect for others.

No. I did not award you any points.
I don't know why this is being cited.
I reported the recording of this violation to the Creator.
As well as the recording of Neira's violation. That's all, I didn't assign the rest.
As for not assigning the rest – well done, seriously.
Here is your trolling. A clear, unambiguous attempt to provoke the "opposition."
All the posts there are reasonable and points were awarded for all of them. There is nothing special in my remark.
Except the ones we've made
What exactly did I say?
I'm not suggesting that you should be penalized for this, I'm just illustrating what I consider to be wrong and explaining exactly why.
Then, you are from the same coalition and you fully support (or supported) the decisions of other moderators who are involved in this matter.

The point is that your words have a distinctly emotional tone. Partly, it's a form of teasing. It provokes responses of the same type.
I'm not suggesting you should be rewarded for this, I'm simply illustrating what I consider to be wrong and explaining exactly why.
I'd suggest you take a look at it first.

Went too far.
