Oh no, I don't understand she was always so nice to me. I liked writing with her. I can hardly believe that there were such problems with her. Thanks buddy for telling me that.
She was nice to you because she was nice to everyone. Except bigots. Some people wanted to spread bigotry on this site and were banned. Then they cried foul and went to Spike and got Lad in trouble. Don't blame her one bit for the hardline stance, but I guess it is unrealistic to have a gaming site without a few hateful folk.
I probably should've stayed quiet but I don't appreciate people misrepresenting my friends as troublemakers when they aren't.

She once said to me that it is always good to be nice and friendly. Alright, I really wouldn't have expected that and it is also a pity but well it's her decision. I liked her, I hope she is well.
The moderators of RTG, the guardians and protectors of this site. I'm not sure how many there are here but I think this is a good question for you RTG Community. Who is your favorite moderator here ??
Ever since I got to know this forum, honestly, I don’t like any of them.
I feel compelled to 'like' their comments purely to please them — and to seriously embarrass them in case I ever decide to post something uncomfortable... the world belongs to the cunning.
When a moderator actually talks to their community and are active in it like fans of said community, then that's a good moderator in my book. With that being said, yeah, every moderator here is a good moderator. It's like being asked which do you like more: your mom or your dad? Not that I liken the moderators here as my mom and dad, but just trying to describe the difficulty of such questions. They are all good. Not much to say other than gl to them all and that I wish nothing but good tidings to them and that they achieve what they want in life.

proper internet-forum moderator behaviour is silence so in that respect i think the moderators here are all good stuffs
typically it is when moderators air their operations or detail their specific dislikes towards specific users that things become immediately passive aggressive and hostile
wait hold on.
first of, crying to me won't get a mod in trouble.
Nobody got ATL in trouble because they stepped down themselves I had nothing to do with it.
Some days this does feel like a full-time job without payment, and it kind of sucks, but I absolutely love it here and we all try very hard to do our best at it.
Since I still want to show up to gab about comic books from time to time, I'd feel better just speaking on this real quick. The main reason I asked to be demoted is because I'm out of work again, and I'm not hopeful that I'll find another position from home that gives me freedom to be on here as much as I was. Sorry for not really saying anything, but with that recent rules change kerfuffle, I didn't want to give the impression that I was leaving in protest of Spike or anything like that.
(I also know Ciro is an excellent replacement!)
Generally, I don't like talking about myself (so OF COURSE I'm job hunting, kill me), and I don't think moderating is any big hardship to do...but, these guys have been my friends for over half a year now on here, and I don't mind praising them.
Thank you, Waffles, for being so exceptionally kind, and honest.
Thank you, JL, for being so thoughtful, and an absolute sweetheart.
Thank you, Rage, for being the *exact* opposite of your name, so even-tempered and considerate.
Thank you, Spike, for making me laugh, and being as cool as I hoped you would be.
Thank you, Yousef, for the infectious energy and being so fun.
Thank you, Ciro, for Actually we didn't overlap much. (Kidding, I'm glad we're friends!)
Thank you, RGT Staff, for- wait who the fuck is that?
Teone, we didn't talk much, but it was enough to see what an insightful person you are, and I'd always value your opinion.
Ninja....damn, he's everything the name implies. I don't even know this guy, this shadow, this legend. Frankly, I assume he's reading this over my shoulder with a smirk, and vanishing the moment I turn around.
(As a brief aside, I can't say I've ever been that interested in what people think of the job I did. All I know is, I signed my moderation actions, left my DM's open, and explained them when asked. Walked back a few after discussing it as well, I wouldn't say I was inflexible. Anyways, now that it's known I'm not a mod anymore, I'd appreciate just being left out of the conversation entirely, please and thank you).

I appreciate you so much, thank you. People *would* go over me (and the other mods) heads to Spike, but I don't want to give the impression that it meant he took that out on us; him and I didn't always agree on what happened at that point, but he never treated it like it was my fault. Sorry if I gave that impression, I've been so busy lately I haven't really explained what was going on to anyone. Thanks for sticking up for me, hon.
For what my word is worth, in the time i have been posting here, the phrase "in the time I have been posting here" is not one i thought I would ever use. I usually don't post on forums at all. I just slide in through an open window, take microfilm of the secret plans then sneak back out. This place has always had a different vibe. So I gambled and starting posting. And aside from the expected annoyances it has been a positive experience for me. I know that is directly because of the moderation team keeping out the hate and ignorance but leaving in enough dumbassery to keep things spicy.
I have chatted with a few of the Mods (or former Mods) in my time here, for different reasons, and I say you are all great, individually, and as a team. Thank you all for making this place actually and honestly welcoming to a (mostly) fly on the wall like me.

I'll come out and say I actually don't take notice to the mods status here, so let me take this opportunity to say thank you to every part of the mods and the ex-mods for keeping things in order.
