Inks' approvals as a moderator of Forum Community

A moderator getting this much disapproval must be doing something right.

Strongly approve. He seems to be more faithful in his enforcement of the ToS than most everyone else. Perhaps he's a little strict, but stict enforcement is much, much better than selective enforcement.

is this not the very antithesis of the above supposed virtues (?)

It's inappropriate to joke about having sex with a 16-year-old.  Sorry, but that's my rule.  If you don't like it, don't post on the Forum Community board.

The ToS fobids sexually oriented material. While Inks' wording in that post is not very good, joking about having sex with a 16-year old would be a violation. It's not something followed very closely on here, but the ToS does say that so Inks can infract it.

Ultimately, that's what it comes down to.  And Dave's objections to profanity are applicable to this issue too.  It's not good if a school sees a post like that while one of their students is on the forum.

Eh, the ToS is a bit of a joke.

Oh it definitely is, which makes it hilarious when some of the moderators get all uppity about enforcing it very literally as if it is the word of God, and then will, on other issues, just sort of let it slide.

If that's referencing me, I've never advocated that the ToS should always be upheld 100% literally all the time.

No kid who sees a swear word on the internet is going to have a massive moral breakdown. In fact, most of them probably already know the word anyway.

Even setting aside the fact that the "think of the children" argument is some sort of magical fantasy scenario that I highly doubt actually happens in many cases at all, the idea that a kid would get in trouble for reading some random off-color remark about having legal sex with someone, but apparently this entire thread (which includes a more explicit sexual joke by Mikado than the infracted sexual joke by opebo certainly was) is completely in line, is a f**king joke. There is no rational explanation for this and the precedent it sets and every single person on the Mod team knows it.

Nobody had reported the thread...

He reminds me of the Pharisees who were upset by Jesus Christ.

Who's Jesus in this picture?

[Queen Mum Inks.LWC]

Anyone you've ever infracted.

Remember Jesus said "What you have done to the least of these, you have done to me."

That one doesn't really apply...
