via The East Pacific | The Goin' Silent of Zukchiva | I was born stupid No. Two reasons: Second, been feeling kind of burned out and since I know there's at least one other candidate I'm personally okay with taking the Delegacy, I think it's best not to gun for a second term due to my waning interest right now. |

via The East Pacific | Sicilianzo | Question: what is your opinion on mods suppressing posts that break no official rules? AKA pakitsk suppressing political posts |

via The East Pacific | The Goin' Silent of Zukchiva | I think in general moderator suppression of posts is pretty lenient. Besides political posts, typically the only other kinds of posts that don't break rules yet are suppressed are those who spread the attention of trolls by quoting their messages, or for harmless jokes. For the most part, I'm fine with how Regional Officers utilize their powers to suppress posts as they don't do it in an arbitrary or unreasonable manner. To go into the political posts: While I personally don't really view political debate as bad in on itself, I trust Pakitsk's judgement in enforcing the no-politics rule. You'll have to ask him the reason for suppressing political posts, but from what I can see there's two reasons: a) Politics will always lead to flaming. Always. It's not a matter of if but a matter of when. Which is understandable, because politics is controversial. By being strictly against politics, we prevent that scenario from happening. The RMB used to be a lot more hectic and dramatic in the past- it would never be a good thing to bring that era back but with the added fuel of political drama. b) Politics can make people uncomfortable. Everyone comes to the RMB for their own reasons, but many times people just come to chat. While some people do like political discussion and would prefer it, others simply do not- especially when such discussion gets heated. So it does make sense to bar political discussion, as its not (as far as I can see) a majority of the community who likes such discussion. I hope that answered your question :> |

via The East Pacific | Socialist slin hifenian islands | If you would be able, for how long would you want to be the Delegate of The East Pacific |
via The East Pacific | The Goin' Silent of Zukchiva | Sorry, I didn't notice this! But I would say probably I just wanna finish out my term. Maybe I'll come back, maybe I won't. I'm pretty much content with one term, or four months, though. :p |
