How did you become a "Super Moderator"?

Because after 100 posts you can change that subtitle from "Member," to whatever you want, and I guess he decided he feels "Super."

Would you like to get banned and see if I'm a mod or not?

First off, you have absolutely no grounds for that.

Second, I was merely pointing out the "Super" part of your name. I know you are a Mod because your name is on the home page next to the thread sections with the rest of the Moderators. I could care less. But the man asked why you are super, not whether or not you are a moderator. You have taken it out of context.

Actually, we were given the name "supermoderator" by the administrator's since we have the ability to BAN, which I see has happen to you.

I actually asked for the ability to BAN years ago, since sometimes it can make things run smoother, especially if there is a spammer.

Yeah well apparently he felt the need to ban me to prove his point even though I did nothing but agree with the fact that he is a moderator.

First off, MikesToy's question does not pertain to you, I can and will respond to his question as I see fit.

Why did you respond? I can draw my own theories why you chose to respond when labudash's question has been fully addressed, but it doesn't need to be revisited.

I was giving you a warning for your remark,
and I guess he decided he feels "Super."

Apparently, you did not have your facts straight AGAIN.

You couldn't be more wrong HB 4X4, aka Josh220.

I did not ban you. If you think or believe it's a personal issue I have with you, I could've banned you without saying a word when I become a mod without giving you the slightest clue who and why you were banned.

Josh220 getting banned is not up for discussion.

As for anyone else who feels that I'm out to ban you, I'm not. I will ban you if you're violating forum rules after being warned.

For the record, all moderators are here to help the forum and keep it running smoothly. If you have any issues, feel free to PM me.

This is from my PM:

So you were willing to take it that far just to prove a point? Exactly what did you take offense to? Me pointing out that you are in fact a moderator?

I was giving you a warning when I asked if you wanted to be banned, if it was personal, I could've banned you right then and there without saying a word. See my response in that same thread.

You chose to call me out and drew your own assumption when the OP's question has been fully addressed. The point of your thread was? You could've just given a response as to "you can change the 'member' to anything you like after 100 posts." End of story.

For the record and get the facts straight, I did NOT ban you. If I wanted to, I could've done so silently and I can ban this account as well.

Which mod chose to ban Josh220 I'm not previleged to provide.

As I said in that thread, I do NOT have anything personal against you. If anything, it's you that have issues with me. From a man to man standpoint, think about your post calling me out and for what reason you have to make that post.

Heck, I'll post my response to you in the event you're banned again by a mod.

Uneek,
Responded to your PM but your Inbox is full. In short, no I do not have anything against you, but clear your Inbox and I'll send you the full message. But I do not see how sarcastically answering a question makes me susceptible to termination haha.

Oh well, no worries. Life goes on.

Well, because it's text, no one can tell the tone it's spoken in or the expression, and it can be easily be misconstrued. Your original and subsequent posts gave me nor other moderators any indication of it being sarcasm. Whether it was intended as sarcasm from the getgo or not, we can debate that to no end. What's said has been said, and what's done is done.

If anything, hopefully anyone new to Internet communication be it on a forum, instant messaging, email, etc. will know that text is just that and it's up to the reader's interpretation. Emoticons can help guide the type of expression, but it's no guarantee.

As you've said, time to move on.
 
Josh / HB, IIRC I had sent you a couple of warnings myself - so I can't say I'm surprised to see that one of the mods finally got fed up :D Normally I'd immediately delete/ban any new aliases but I will not do so in this case because you have contributed some useful posts and I'm hoping you will turn over a new leaf as "HB". I'm closing this thread since the OP's questions have been answered and I'd like us to put this matter to rest.
