RKMBs Forums .::Important::. off topic and offensive posts I'd like to discuss a serious topic with all of you...

Mod abuse.

Two out of every three RKMB posters have suffered from abuse at the hands of a moderator at least once.

For instance, bsmas, for no apparent reason, had...numerous...threads deleted and/or moved from the Writer's Block forum. Why? Well, that's unknown. No official reason was given. The poor man spent a good deal of time crafting some very thoughtful "Talk Threads", only to have them vanish.

While on the topic of the Writer's Block Forum, there appears to be an inordinate amount of threads that have been "pinned" to the top of the forum. This is a clear example of moderators giving a select few special privileges. What the select few have to do to earn these privileges, I have no idea.

Most recently, an insightful thread discussing the new lineup of programs that will air on a new network was locked, despite Rob Kamphausen himself unlocking the thread a day earlier. The moderator who committed this crime had the audacity to boast of his decision on a related thread.

The discussion can be seen here: http://www.rkmbs.com/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/410576/an/0/page/0#410576

The locked thread can be seen here: http://www.rkmbs.com/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/410214/an/0/page/0#410214

If these events disturb you, I encourage you to send Rob Kamphausen a private message, stating that you feel MisterJLA should be a moderator.

Or you can start a petition.

Thanks,

MisterJLA
