amistre64 · Answer

lol,  mathmale is fine :)  but i can see your own point of view.

anonymous · Answer

is there anyway u have to tell him to stop suspending people for no reason that's why people create fake acoounts because hes always suspending them @amistre64

amistre64 · Answer

all the mods get the notifs for warnings and suspensions and can pervue them.  ive seen no reason to confront him for his choices so far.

anonymous · Answer

how about the one he wrote and suspended @ikatouni @amistre64

amistre64 · Answer

youll have to be more specific:  this is just the tip of the iceberg of what we are dealing with.

anonymous · Answer

@amistre64  @ikatouni  was suspended in the mprning and i bet all of these were suspended because of mathmale

amistre64 · Answer

mathmale isnt the only one that suspends users :)

anonymous · Answer

ok so can we get bak to my question pleeaaaaazzzzz @amistre64

amistre64 · Answer

found it .... and it appears that ikat was becoming a tad beligerent.  a 12 hour break is not all that bad, gives a person room to calm down :)

and yes.   i asked why you think its B

anonymous · Answer

12 hours what if the person needed help during that time @amistre64

amistre64 · Answer

you confuse 'help' with simply giving an answer.  we are not a free answering service and do not appreciate people saying that they will follow the rules and then break them.

amistre64 · Answer

the mods arent power hungry, they are responsible adults that care about the integrity of this site.  afterall, we volunteer our time and efforts to make this site a safe and appropriate place to actually learn something.  The rules are set up just for that purpose, wouldnt you agree?

anonymous · Answer

yes but some stil take advantage of their power @amistre64
