Moderating the Mods 
(Senior Gorilla, 790

on 11/3/11 at 11:48am
I've had numerous instances where I have had my signature and my post edited by moderators and not in an attempt to censor, but actually changing what I said and making incredibly stupid statements (ie 'I have a small penis' 'I like dudes' 'etc'). If the site intends to have a forum, it would be nice to know that the person posting is in fact the person who is writing it, versus a mod trying to do whatever.
By the way: I have a small penis.

You could of just emailed Patrick, but this should be fun either way.

I did e-mail him and I received no response, so I posted here as well. It would be appropriate for other people on the forum to see as well that their posts can be edited if they disagree with a moderator.

I could care less if someone was 'mean' on a forum. Considering I know plenty of people from this forum in real life, including some in the workplace, I would prefer to not have my words altered from what I have said. I think that is a pretty reasonable request, even for an online forum.

I'm sure Patrick and the other mods can go looking at the history to see that this is not the case. There would be no incentive to do so anyway.

I can't imagine our mods doing this at all, whats up with your monkey shit to sb ratio?
I edit posts when I promote to homepage, but all I do is clean up grammar a bit, add a bold tag if necessary, maybe change the title, and maybe add in an extra question based on how convo is going. Never touch anything else.

Obviously the lesson here is to stop having shitty opinions.
As far as your signature is concerned, can you prove that ANT did it or are you casting blame because you disagree with his points of view?

Listen bro, I check it out and I don't see how to track it. With that said, maybe there is something in the code of the site or something, but this isn't CSI.
If you want me to break a sweat helping you how about you remove your little tag line. I could do it for you, but I don't do shit like that.

I can attest that his monkey shit to SB ratio comes from disagreeing with the neocon circle jerk on here and arguing vehemently against it.
My advice: it's just not worth it. Post what you want to say, know that there are people who will read it and appreciate a break from the typical neocon crap, and move on. Don't take this shit as seriously as the neocon club.

Look, I'm not saying it's a good idea to make a thread like this, but the site gets pretty shitty when it's nothing but far right crap over and over. And if people's accounts get hacked or whatever because they strongly disagree, that's pretty much bullshit.

I basically ignore everything Jerome writes bc I find it completely useless. However, if a mod is going in and changing the content of his posts that's not right.
I actually think it's pretty funny if someone changed his post to say "i like dudes" but unless a mod is just editing to remove inappropriate content I think they should be left alone.

lol this is actually pretty funny. The trolling via editing my posts could have actually been humorous by being slightly more subtle and believable. Instead, you showed a weaker sense of humor than a middle schooler yelling penis in the classroom. Now the other virgins are hopping in to give high 5s to their WoW guildmates. Then again, no one ever said finance folks were the funniest or most creative guys on the planet.
If you had some nuts, you'd at least own up to doing it and move on. I'm all for fucking around, but editing my words is a bit far when there is no disclaimer on it.
