Yep, the moderation here _IS_ super biased...  on the side of civility.  That's what's needed to keep the board alive.

I guess we should be on the lookout for Urchin02?  



That retail brouhaha got to him.  Exactly why I don't let retail dictate my shopping habits.  Not only did he not get his laptop or whatever, his emotions got him here to.

Tsk tsk.

Post by: Chairboy on November 24, 2006, 10:19:52 PM
Nothing much, just someone stomping away from the board 'forever!'

Right now, he's a bit confused why there isn't a big crowd of other folks leaving with him.  I imagine he felt that revolution was in the air and he was to be their moses.  Unfortunately, we all got the memo that the 'promised land' was myspace.com, so we decided to stay.

Reynolds,

Urchin was mad, posted the experience that made him mad, the discussion was fairly lively and civil, but nobody seemed to notice that the original post somehow violated rule #7.  Nobody but skuzzy seems to know what it was that triggered rule 7, but apparently it did.

The funny thing is that he didn't lock the thread and it was an active discussion, so there are another bunch of posts made after the original post was deleted, going "wtf?", etc.  You know how some things are funny hilarious and some are funny sad?  Well, this is sorta funny sad because nobody seems to know what triggered rule 7 and Urchin doesn't seem to think it was the sort of deliberate thing that often (usually) triggers rule 7, like posting links to porn or using slightly mis-spelled cuss words to bypass the profanity filter.

We can scratch our heads all day but it's obvious that:
1.  It's HTCs board so love it or leave it.
2.  Posting while mad (or drunk) is a good way to get modded.
3.  Getting mad over an unsatisfying consumer experience on black Friday is silly.
4.  Getting mad over unintentionally triggering moderation of a post about getting mad over an unsatisfying consumer experience is equally silly.

I'll add in my backseat moderation input (suggestion?) that if a moderator deletes the first post in a thread, the whole thread probably ought to be locked, otherwise you're just inviting a dozen "wtf" and "moderators stink" replies that must also be moderated.  Just lock it and get it over with.  In my worthless opinion.

Urchin's a good motivational speaker, the thing is that he's motivated to self destruct and that's not a 'good' contagion.

I attended one of his talks, but all he said was stuff like, "If you begin smoking, you'll end up living in a van down by the river!"
