People selling sand, people evaporating, and other catastrophic events
Evening everyone. In the interests of squashing any conspiracy theorists before they get started (yea yea 9/11 Cheney thermite controlled demolition etc I get it), I have removed CajunFanatico as mod on my own judgement and volition.

--- OMG WE'RE NOW GOING TO PERMABAN ANYBODY THAT CALLS ULM ANYTHING OTHER THAN LOUISIANA AMIRITE?

No.

--- OMG WE'RE NOW GOING TO HAIL OUR LA TECH OVERLORDS AND PRAY TO THE ALMIGHTY MAILMAN, OUR ONE TRUE LORD AND SAVIOR.

No. Also Dooley Jr sucks as coach. 05-stirthepot

--- OMG THIS IS A MISDIRECT SO THAT ALL MODS CAN IN FACT BE REPLACED BY FIRE SPEWING PEPPERS THAT CAUSE YOU TO SET YOUR OWN TOILET BOWL ON FIRE.

Okay, that one you'll get a maybe.



--- Hey -- but I have a serious question which cannot be easily characterized by some all caps dismissal?

Okay shoot... what do you have?



--- So are we going to get a new ULL mod because without that we're all being discriminated against #RaginLivesMatter

We may indeed add a ULL mod in the future. But for now we're going to let things settle and get the mod team acting as a more cohesive unit again.

If Fanatico has to be a fuddy duddy to keep his badge screw that.

I doubt most of us care if we have a member mod in our fan base, also. Won't stop complaints of moderator bias. You will not find many message boards without complaints of moderator double standards.

I agree, and fwiw I think it was totally unwarranted and extremely heavy-handed.

Given the prominence that UL has in the SBC, every day without a moderator repping us is a complete travesty.

Respectfully, just in my opinion, for the life of me I have no idea why you chose to make this move but it'd have been a LOT classier to let CajunFanatico make this announcement himself vs the "I have removed..." statement you chose to announce.

He's a valued member of this online community and remember, it was the majority of members of this community who offered our nominations on his behalf to become an "esteemed mod".

Just my 2ยข... carry on and thanks for letting me voice my opinion.

RE: People selling sand, people evaporating, and other catastrophic events
Here's one more point...

If the OP hadn't have pointed out the public flogging, I doubt more than a few of us would've ever noticed the missing "MOD" on CF's avatar. Of those of us who might have, probably only one or two of us would've been curious enough to ask why anyway. FWIW, I don't know CF at all - I just find this whole thread one of the most unnecessary threads I've ever seen in this forum. And that's saying a LOT.

Sometime in the future. Could be next week, next month, or next year......

We're waiting things out for a few months and discussing different options for the future. It's the slow season on this board anyway.

When the time comes to discuss a new mod, you guys will be the first to know.

Also, was it the constant bickering with LaTech fans that lost him his status? I've been on this board a few years now, but I don't really know or understand all of the rules/roles of moderators, etc.

I know GTS left this open for questions, but since this thread was recently bumped he might not have seen it and I'll address these two posts. CF has not been expelled from the board, and GTS stated his decision wasn't to appease La Tech fans (per the original post).

The job of the moderators is to keep order/civility on the board and enforce the rules found here: http://csnbbs.com/thread-457167.html

I think more than anything else, I think it was the way that it was handled that was so wrong. Was cf given any type of warning, etc. before being removed? I have seen other mods who don't 'keep order/civility' on the boards, but it seems they escaped unscathed.
