Legion and Coquette are the only Mods on this papers. They are the only ones with the ability to delete or edit posts, as far as I know. The rest of us, are glorified writers. All we can really do is create threads in the sections that have our names under the "Moderator" area, in spots where subscribers cannot.  |

Thank you for the clarification Lestat. I have a feeling that is going to dash the hopes of many a young pyress to be mod spanked by you... *smiles impishly before giving a teasing little curtsy*
I love the picture by the way, it really does complete the statement.

Not to mention that it would defeat the whole point of this paper anyway. Freedom of speech and all. |

*Clarification I can't stop it! Let the record show that I offlined him about correcting the title of this thread before writing this missive. OK, so this thread was my fault. KL came to me upset about my having corrected him on the Scions of the Phoenix advertisement: theravenblackbite.proboards83.com/index.cgi?board=clans&action=display&thread=133. He was "not pleased" that I "'helped [him] to elitism'", and said that "it would have been nice" if I had rather brought the error to his attention "in private,rather than smudge [his] advertisement and bring on a waterwall of insults to [his] clan through such an endeavor". By being "public about it, rather than coming to me personally to let me know I typo'd", he believes I brought on the onslaught of insults. For the record, I did send him an offline message with the correction, which he claimed not to have received. At any rate, I contend that all I did was post "*Led by" and he was the one who replied in a less-than-cordial manner. He called that mere post "a smear". I responded in kind. "A smear? I didn't do anything except point out a grammatical error in an ad for your clan, hon. You gave me 'tude. I gave you 'tude. That's all she wrote." He said he gave me said "'tude" 'cause my post was "rude". I don't see how posting a simple grammatical correction was so "rude". It wasn't an egregious error or anything. This, to me, is an example of the logical fallacy post hoc, ergo prompter hoc (lit.: "after this, therefore because of this") which states, "Since that event followed this one, that event must have been caused by this one." Expressed simply: A occurred, then B occurred; therefore A caused B. I corrected his clan advertisement, then others insulted him. So obviously my oh-so-negative post triggered the resulting critical posts by others. Not. Now, as for how this all relates to his post here. I said that if he felt my post was so problematic, he should've just deleted it. "That is what I figured would happen," I told him. He said he doesn't have post-deletion privileges. How could I have known? After all, he is a moderator, and that is an example of moderation. Still, that doesn't explain why "[he] gave me attitude instead of saying thanks." Granted, I still don't see what was so horrible about my having corrected his advertisement in the first place. As I told him, "Gee, I'm sorry to have wanted to help." --Gallagher |

*checks his Archives*
Yeah, I've got no offline here. I'll even take screen shots of my archives for you.
Basically, to assume that I can delete posts is assuming they gave me, a writer, power over everything. I can't lock threads, I'm not even sure I can edit the title of this thread.
So, for the last time:
STOP CORRECTING ME, I DON'T CARE!
Loud enough for you?

I am not questioning your not having received an offline. We all know that cell-phone reception ((Y!M)) is not infallible. To be frank, I don't even care. ::smiles sweetly::
Yes, I assumed you were a moderator. Oh well. I'm sure I wasn't the only one to have thought so 'til you posted this clarification.
Edited to add: And I see you changed the thread's title. ::winks, grinning::
I couldn't quite hear you. Come again, KL? I honestly think you just like hearing yourself talk.
And you won't tell me what I will and won't do.
