If you don't think communication is necessary for being a mod then I honestly don't know what to say anymore.

idk what this "actions speak louder than words" poo poo is but most mods on SA make it clear what they're probating people for, or are at least funny about being obtuse.

For real though, "actions speak louder than words" is a really dumb platitude, at least the way you're using. The joke is that your actions still allow for a wide area of interpretations, so when k.flaps got probated I thought your incredibly clear loud action meant "zero-effort Garfield comics spam and talk about Garfield only is not okay", but that putting effort into Tomo/Garfield edits and not going overboard with them is a-okay. Hell, I would go so far as to say that most people interpreted your very loud please use your indoor voice actions that way, and the fact that they interpreted them that way and someone got probated for it is why so many got mad enough to poo poo up the Tomo thread now.

I think the rushing into the probation zone like a lemming was bad for people to do. But the forum wants someone who they feel they can have a discussion with, which until now had been like pulling teeth. That's just my two cents though.

Endorph posted:Iunno why the idea of communicating clearly with us is so anathema to you. We aren't schoolchildren and you aren't the stern head principal. Just say 'gently caress off with doing this thing' and most people will listen, even if they gripe about it some, you don't need to keep swatting our hands away from the cookie jar until we get the hint or whatever. Also, being willing to do this and give a warning before throwing out probies is a thing most other mods I've seen generally do (outside of obvious cases like that creep in the MaiDragon thread) that usually dissipates whatever problem without requiring anyone get probied. Keeps discussion flowing and spirits higher in general. I also really don't see why this is apparently such a problem .

Incoherent yelling is louder than your normal speaking voice but only one actually lets us know your full position rather than divining it from vague context clues and then loud-speaking-action us for misunderstanding you.

zen death robot posted:Show me the banned posts also, a dude keeps getting probated for doing edits of a japanese webcomic where he replaced all the characters with garfield, because he is comparing the webcomic's banality to garfield. here is a joke. none of these jokes are setting the world on fire but they're swings at humor that don't really hurt anything and were only done once or twice, and clearly had some amount of effort put into them, which i feel should be protected to some extent on a dead gay comedy forum.

You know what I don't get? When people use "Armchair" as a prefix (would that be the correct term? I'm not sure) to deride somebody expressing an opinion who knows nothing/very little of that particular field. Why? Armchairs are comfy and have done nothing wrong. Poser gets the point across much better.

homeless snail posted:The only thing people want is for you to make one post to say like "Okay no more Garfield jokes" around the time you are pressing the probate button, so people can be sure exactly what unwritten rule they are getting cat jailed for Yeah this. Like, I'm not particularly mad about any 6'ers, I'm just a little bemused as to why asking for a one sentence explanation is apparently some big imposition on your time.

According to Owlday's loud actions, it is illegal to make Garfield edits, but it is extremely legal and perhaps even encouraged to keep quoting it and posting "lol". Anything else would be spamming.

zen death robot posted:Ok I think the post of piles of poo poo is actually ok to ban on because it's a terrible loving post and I would have approved it too. And I think all of you pitching a fit over eating six hours because you keep posting garfield comics in the anime forum is loving stupid. Can I defend this post? I'd defend it in the thread but then I'll just get probated. I mean yeah it's loving stupid but so is this whole debacle. I dunno how you can defend rampant tantrums by a middle aged mod in a dead comedy forum and then just wave it away with "y'all whippersnappers getting mad over nothing". Probating because someone posts a funny 'shoop seems like the antithesis of what SA mods should do.
