Depends on who you talk to, I think. Plenty of people had negative opinions of me. I probably have a biased view, being me, but I felt that I just tried to keep people honest on NSider. Even people I worked with.

I tried to be fair within the confines of the rules and make the best out of a restricted situation for the majority of people. I dunno if I was always successful, but I'm comfortable knowing that I worked pretty hard trying to be consistent and do the right thing... whatever that was. Either way, when it comes to people who have a negative opinion of me because of anything that might have happened (perceived or real) on the NSider forums, I'm definitely not offended by it. I still like you NSider people.

I've heard that. It's worked sort of inconsistently for me. I tend to forget the numbers at the end of the name, so I think that's what throws me off. I should just bookmark the site, I think...

You were hilarious to watch posting on NSider2 during my time on staff there. People had no idea how to deal with you.

Kayo · April 02, 2011, 06:09:44 PM

Oh, that's cool.
I was neutral towards Bronsen, and/but I doubt he remembers who I am.

Bronsen pops up yet again!

Hey.

Also, I don't recall having any negative feelings toward Bronsen.

Truth be told, they probably have even less of an idea now. I really think that moderating isn't as easy as some of us made it look. For the most part, we had a team of people with the right amount of professionalism that no matter how annoying some users could be, we approached them with level heads. On occasion, some of the people we had to contact were actually right. I distinctly remember a Cappy who retrospectively set me straight when they had a legitimately justifiable reason for doing something they had done.

In many ways, it's not really that they don't know how to deal with me as it is they don't know how to deal with the Serious Discussion board. I feel like they're very conflicted when they go after users for vague things like "flaming" and "trolling" on the Serious Discussion board, similar to how one might feel conflicted going after a user for something as vague as "spamming" on a Power On board. Even if it may not seem like it in the middle of an involved debate, I respect people who at least try to challenge me on what I write. That's something that's definitely lost on the current staff. And I find that unfortunate because they're going to inevitably wind up becoming the overbearing staff that we at NSider were often forced to be, but without the fair reason of having a legal team to answer to.

We've pretty much become the opposite. Partially because of the smaller community, and partially because...well, we don't like being stiff and boring. Sure, we do enjoy having fun, but if need be, we'll crack down on any shenanigans that will cause serious trouble.
