The last few months I've seen Finn go, Pram go, Moose go, Zalgo go and now we want Chao gone? A decent, no bullshit moderator? In my honest opinion, at the moment anyway, Chao is one of the more better mods. Plus one of the last old mods that were around before me, simply because everyone is going crazy with demotions lately. Soon we'll have no mods or admins left.

It seems as if the chat shutdown hasn't helped much, since we're still focusing on bullshit that doesn't matter. The forums are still littered with demotion threads....do we really want to go down the permanent shut down route? Just because you guys are too sensitive about everything lately, leading to unneeded drama.

In short, I oppose. Doesn't seem sensible to get rid of one of our best moderators. Did you look at the screencaps that I have sent? Did you look at the screencaps that the user proposing this demotion has against? Moose didn't do shit on the site. The inactivity rules weren't enacted when Zalgo lapsed into inactivity.

We do need more admins (admins who volunteer and help out with the wiki, rather than users like Moose who does nothing, and Zalgo who randomly lapses into inactivity) and we don't need anymore mods. What we do need is more moderators that have sense. Chaoz, or any of the moderators that I have suggested in my first reply, have no sense.

They have contributed to flamebaits, shitstorms, and have incited drama in the main. Their job, THEIR ROLES, are supposed to stop that stuff from entering in the main chat. He's not a decent moderator, most of the chat moderators aren't good moderators. I say the best ones on this wiki are Cas, Plank, Bitter, Noah, and Lei. That's pretty much it. The rest are inactive, or have started/contributed to drama during their modship.

If it was a different user, your votes would be distributed in a different way. Just because a user has a past of drama with one user/one right, doesn't mean that the user being proposed the demotion should get an instant "Slap of oppose! Because this user proposing has a past!" We're naming best mods now? Seriously? As if we're not under enough scrutiny by users, there's a god damn LEADERBOARD now!? Naw. It's not "naming best mods". It's me naming the mods who do their job like they're supposed to do/obey the rules directly. It's still putting us under more and more scrutiny, Fatal. We all try to do our jobs and people naming who is "best mod" really doesn't help. It also tends to murder self esteem, which is part of the reason mods are reluctant to do their jobs, because of worrying about whether their every action will be taken apart and judged.
