The "Freeola Customer Forum" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
I've just realized that just about everyone that posts here regularly are also moderators. Seems like everyone's a chief and there aren't many injuns..
Maybe I should apply just to be sure Biglime doesn't stick it to me anymore. Moderate the moderators, kind of thing... Who does that anyways?? How would I file a formal complaint??

You are not moderator material in the least and I think it is you and your own immaturity that keeps provoking this matter over the top.
Why can you not just appologize for not consulting with me before changing the title of my thread? Are you truly too self-absorbed and proud in your capacity to say that you were wrong for not discussing the issue with me first? This is after all a discussion forum and it is what mature people do.
It is quite apparent that your communication skills are lacking and that above all, should be one of the general requirements for becoming a moderator.
I don't care to get into the specifics of calculating post counts, I don't come here for that and if I was so concerned, I'd become a moderator. What I do see however is that Kawada's post in the other thread quoting your "brainwashed" personal attack has been deleted.
I know that until you came back around several days ago, things were going just fine around here. No posts were deleted, no thread titles were changed, and no one was going around harrassing the members of these forums.
It was actually becoming a decent community of individuals, now we have to contend with self-righteous small-minded characters like you as moderators that get-off causing nothing but strife.
Back down and find your place Biglime. You should be looking to resolve this, not instigate and perpetuate it. If you can not, you should resign the moderator designation.

aye but why change the name of the thread?
by the way ... I don't wish to be drawn into this 'to do', just wondering that's all ...
EDIT : Scratch that I read your answer in another thread ...
SECOND EDIT : Can I just make a comment though, I realise you've modded other forums and have experience in these matters, but to make such a judgement, that a title is not befitting the subject matter, seems a bit OTT ... when you read books or poems, often the names are only linked to the content in an abstract way, often you read the material and then the title makes sense. I realise Ladybirds thread was neither a story or a poem, but still, can't people have the freedom to entitle their blogs/threads as they choose? ... it's not as though it was offensive in any way, misleading, trolling or vindictive. It was just a fitting title, certainly in Ladybirds mind, and after reading the whole thread, mine too.
You guys may have a problem with each other, talk of lies etc ... I couldn't care less, but still it does seem a tad over the top. And also ... who is to say your title is better than what she came up with ... who moderates the moderators eh?
Not looking to pick a fight .. just making an observation, telling you my opinion, I realise you may not want it, but it's a free country/forum ... or so I hope so.

I just wanted to quote the following as evidence in case it gets edited. Never before have I witnessed playground tactics been used in an online environment, and in such a venomous manner. I guess it's another first...

I would agree with it too.. if it had any merit in the first place.

And now you have started lying. This has elevated out of control, but it makes absolute no sense to start stirring up things in an effort to ruin my reputation.
Just to confirm how silly and low you have become, there is proof of deleted posts. If you check the number of replies on the index page and compare it to the number of posts in the actual thread, you can see if there has been any deleted posts.
Have you done that? Good. Now, if you still wish to complain to the Freeola staff, go ahead whilst we pity your immaturity. May I also suggest you put off your imminent marriage, if this is a true display of your character.

Doubtful.

I would be interested to know why the name of the thread was changed ... I thought the original one was fine ...
You are over the top. Stop deleting the comments that people are making to support me.
What are you so afraid of? Looking like the bully you truly are?? All you're looking like is abusive of your moderating authority! I'm telling you, a lot of the previous users of these forums don't come here because of these tactics you are manuevering today..deleting posts, changing titles of threads, deleting threads all together.. You're sickening.
Why is it only -my- thread that you touched?? You believe that it brought about more interesting replies?? Personally I think you killed it, because it wasn't about being desperate to marry as YOUR title would indicate. The least you could have done was discuss changing the title with me within the thread itself, so that there wasn't confusion and this distention.
It is all you are creating as a moderator. Step down megalomaniac!
The only other that could have banned me from General Chat was you. I find it ironic it was after having that debate with you regarding custody and child support. Just because people don't say what you like or what you want them to say, isn't a reason for you to cut them off, modify what they say, or banning them altogether at your whim.
You ARE abusing your authority and I will be submitting a formal complaint. I'm not the only one questioning your behaviors.

Well this is a bit of an over the top reaction. Maybe we should just cool down for a while, obviously you're taking things the wrong way.
