But you said it yourself: "My time as a VS forum mod has passed. This is rather evident in the last month or so from a few high level disagreements I've had with the rest of the administration.Alyeska wrote:A single ban over turned and suddenly there is massive disagreement. So much disagreement they saw fit to fire me on the spot with an anouncement. Oh, wait, they didn't.Nonamer wrote:It had to be a supermod or admin. Either way, someone or some group above had a problem with your moderating. Your statements following the incident clearly suggests that you were no longer welcome as mod, or at the very least there was some serious disagreement with your behavior.
I am not so short sighted that I couldn't see what was comming. My time was comming to and end. Rather then desperately cling to something and hold on to the bitter end, I find it better to bow out."
Explain to me how I'm suppose to take it any other way. If this isn't a firing, then you obviously saw the end coming and quit in advance. Either way, you did not quit because you wanted to.
Like I said, not many mods care about the Vs. board or are even particularly aware of the events in the Vs. board. You had nearly carte blanche ability to write any rules you want and you did.I wrote most of the rules with the input and suggestions from every mod on SB.com. Rules don't get written on a whim. I got the approval of the other staff members. And notice that the rules haven't been withdrawn.
I have in his own words his complaints about your treatment of SW. That tells more than enough about his opinion.You can't make the leap can you. That the same people bitch about his treatment is an indication that the people you are using to judge me are not the best sources.
