when moderators attack
Ahhh WWFDivas_Slash. How I have missed thee.

Since one of the recent LOTR wanks was c/p-ed from a mailing list, I guess I can do the same with the ML I'm on.

For reference, Lita, Trish, Steph, and Nidia are all female personalities in wrestling (hence the name WWFDivas_Slash).



whooohooooo!!! TC's back!! *grins* Long time no see around these here parts. Although that's as much to do with the fact that I've pretty much been lurking as the fact that you've been lurking.

See original OT post stretch for miles with two lined replies.



Hey, do you guys mind talking off the list? It's great that you've got a conversation going, but seeing as it's just you two, it's not fair to clutter up everyone else's mailboxes. Thanks!

G.




FINALLY... I come out to say something. Actually, they do NOT have to take it off the list. Why? Even tho she's been absolutely non-existant for over a year, last I checked Tasha was still a moderator and guess what.. So am I. Also, NOBODY has said a thing here in how long so conversations are nice, esp should others who WANT to get in the conversation show up online later. Thrid, you MUST be new here because we used to have MUCH larger, longer and dirtier conversations here just about a year ago or more. And lastly.... you've got a delete button. Do like I do when most mail comes through my mailbox.. use it.



Wow, what did I do to deserve such a bitchy response? I was nice about it. And yes, people should be allowed to have conversations, but when it's one line each, and only two people having said conversation, what's the point of keeping it on the list?

I'm not new, but I guess I shouldn't argue with mod-almighty.

G.




Mod Almighty??? Ok, Ok - that was not needed - unless of course, Carmie, you've become MOD Almighty since I've been gone. .. Doesn't Jim Carey have a movie with said title?? *Shrugs*

Man, I'm sorry if I offended you by being excited to actually SEe conversation going on in this place, let alone be part of it. You should have seen the conversations that THREE people would get into about a year ago. And then EVERYONE would get in on it. This used to be the happening place to be - naked divas running around everywhere, kegs flying open, Carmie chasing Trish with a bullwhip, Natalie with Lita in the closet or on the counter or whatnot.

Now, I don't know about everyone else, but I jus tthink it's nice to be able to have a conversation with other people on this list. That is what this is for, is it not?? I'm sorry if I offended you by speaking, but I haven't done it in over a year on here and I have a lot to say so I will not take it off of the list unless it's offending other people as well. Not trying ot be bitchy to you, as that is not my intention - but this is a list that I have been with since DAY 1. Jeff and I discussed this list before it existed and so I think I know the rules.

Unless, ModAlmighty, you would care for me to take this off. In which case, I will bow to your power cause that's what Trish says I should do.

TC





It's a good thing that the original post where i was called such a thing was eaten before getting to my mailbox because I am in SUCH the foul mood right now that I'd have been completely bitchy. And I KNOW that no one wants me to REALLY become MOD Almighty, then I might hurt some feelings. As it is, everybody's wondering if they should take sanctuary in the White Room 'cause they know I won't spill blood in there. By now, I've got Trish, Nidia AND Steph all possessed by the White Room's magic.

As for taking it offlist.. HA! Not fuckin' likely. Like I said, she's got a delete key.


HISSBITESCRATCH! Anyone get that on tape?

I'm guessing that this 'Tasha' is the TC that sort of started the OT-two-liners? What, so mods can do this sort of thing and the mere peons can't?

And lastly.... you've got a delete button. Do like I do when most mail comes through my mailbox.. use it.

... you know, some people have limits on their mailboxes, or have to pay for the space being used. ::shaking head::

That mod made some pretty poor arguments about why the conversation can stay onlist--especially in the light that G asked fairly nicely to see it pop offlist. Just because a ML is quiet doesn't mean it should be filled with noise--people are on that ML for Diva slash.

::snrks:: I used to be a big fan of MLs, but after a while, the OT-noise, wiggy moderators, and overexuberant fans of one-liners got to me.

This happened to me on a mailing list for a certain anime. This one guy kept posting screen caps daily. And i don't mean interesting ones..just ones of the chars standing around, day after day after day. He would send like 10 megs of them out every day. People with Yahoo and hotmail accounts were getting their mailboxes stuffed full because of this guy. When someone politely asked him not to post so many, his attitude was 'you don't like it, leave'. The mod had pretty much abandoned the list long ago so there really wasn't anything we could do about it.

This is highly reminiscent of an eruption on StorybookMonkees (a den of hideous fanfic) a while back. Two people were prattling on an on about an OT subject and when the mod politely suggested that they take it offlist for the sake of people's mailboxes, the ijits went apeshit (no pun intended). One left the list and the other sent a hysterical all-caps post to the list raving about . . . well, I was never too sure what.

It was then that I knew exactly why I went on "no mail" . . .

It's another example of a moderator abusing her power -- had it involved anyone else but her, you'd be damned sure she'd ask for it to be taken off-list. Sometimes I wonder if some moderators feel the need to throw around their power once in a while, just to let everyone know they're there. A mod who knows what she's doing will only exert her power when it's absolutely necessary.

I love the Electric Six, by the way. :)

Oh Jeff! Well if Jeff has spoken, then there is no arguement.

Although, it does leave one question; Who is Jeff?

2.This used to be the happening place to be - naked divas running around everywhere, kegs flying open, Carmie chasing Trish with a bullwhip, Natalie with Lita in the closet or on the counter or whatnot.

People drifted away from roleplaying drinking? How could anyone just let that go?

1. Jeff was the moderator once. He wasn't a bright ray of sunshine, either.

2. Because I assume people were too afraid of confrontation since the ones taking part in OT were the ones in power.
