Perhaps we need a court case every time a moderator action is taken? You know, complete disclosure of every action taken, every word muttered, every invisible thread deleted. Think about the fun! Welcome ladies and gentlemen to the trolls haven where we discuss all his actions and put the moderator under fire too! I could do a night course in law, do dress ups and then with help of the TW jury we'd really get to the bottom of this difficult case....'the handling of Remard'.
Basically, here is what I did and WHY I did it:
Stage one.....this involved deleting the one letter threads, deleting some of the doubled up pics and banning what I thought was the most offending account then being used. Basically, this was a quick action to prevent further spamming and the outbreak of reactionary arguing. Note, this is largely irrespective of the reprimand of Remard. You could call this stage some kind of disaster recovery, the introduction of preventative measures, terrorist alert, defcon 4, or something.
Now had of I known that Billy did this on a single account, it's hard to say whether I'd have enforced a ban right away. Certainly if it was a new user, I'd put it down to classic trolling and have little hesitation. When it's an older user, I'd rather give them a break, tell them where they've fucked up, etc. And in turn, Billy/Remard responded promptly and in agreeance to a PMed request......and thus giving me no hesitation to restore his access on account of that promise (and on the realisation that I had blocked all his access). As Shelle hinted, the banning of an alter is a more humble way of saying that certain shit isn't tolerated (and demonstrate that action can be enforced) but even then that only partially explains why I made the decision.

There's a bit of difference between that and simply having a few written guidelines as to what is and isn't acceptable.
However, if you can't see that it's the very absence of any such guidelines whatsoever that causes people to question every individual decision, then so be it.
I can imagine it's a tough job being a mod, so I have a certain amount of sympathy for you.
On the other hand, if it's that tough, maybe it should be rotated rather than being an appointment for life, which seems to be the current situation.

Get the thought out of your sick nazi head. You'll never be TW Moderator.
I thought my identity was apparent by my posting style. Who is the Will of God anyway? I suspect an alter
Yea I say until thee. Shelle will not enter the kingdom of heaven. For she so sucketh.

The use of various alter egos clearly points to someone unhappy with their own life and desperate to assume another identity, one which is popular and well respected
Tell me persilot, which of my alters have i created to gain popularity and respect?? It's clear that i've tried to do the opposite with my alters, to piss people off. This thread shows that i have succeeded!

Now your just assuming things(or trying offend me), you know nothing about me or my personal life. In fact, as we speak, i'm travelling again, which is a true passion for me.
In reply to:
Taken as a whole I think the evidence is conclusive. This person is seriously screwed up and it would be callous and wrong of us to discard them in their hour of need.
What ever...

If I wanted to continue with my pychological babble, the fact that you have a deep rooted denial of your problems would probably be my first point of call.
As it is you're lucky that I was just trying to push all your buttons.

But hey, you still didn't answer me, which one of my alter did i create to gain popularity and respect??

Now that makes no sense at all. I don't think that anyone here has the same personality outside this forums than in the forums. My current change of posting-style doesn't reflect in any ways my real personality. So, your not qualified to say that i've got 'deep rooted denial's', you would have to know me personally to say that!

Interesting that you feel that people have to wear masks and hide their true personality. Do you feel that you are hiding your true personality; that no one really understands you? That would explain a lot.
The posting that you do provides you with a sense of relief and catharsis from your mundane existence. I'm hitting near the knuckle aren't I? Your obvious attempts to deflect questions away from yourself only highlights your insecurities.

Wouldn't you have to know people outside of the forum to know that - or to know to what degree that is true?
I think it's quite telling that b_ has admitted that he has tried time and time agian to annoy us. Isn't that something like Dogz admitting the same back before his trial banning.
I say ban the sorry fuck - not so much because he's a blemish on the boards (and he is) but more for his lack of creativity. Hell, he couldn't even come up with a good line of bullshit about how he can't possibly see how his antics are annoying.
