James: You were a decent moderator. Improvements that come with experience happen gradually but not to this extent. Something inside you, it shifted. What was it?

I think it'd be cool if instead of having nothing but hate and anger towards the user base, the admins instead loved these forums and loved posting.

i really do believe at this point that they only opened that new feedback sub to honeypot the posters they didn't like for further bans and permas for sass

I'm very sympathetic to the anger over Jeff's mass thread probe and I told him as much at the time, because even for those of us with healthy and happy social lives outside the forums, the forums are still one part of our social life where we post with friends and the holidays are a nice time to be with your friends. Like from my perspective I wasn't able to post about the busiest time of the Premier League season with my friends because like 80% of them were on probation and some of them never came back afterwards, which made me very sad, and I know the football forum is hardly the only place on SA with a similar story

Pragmatica and Athanatos at least seem sincere about wanting to make this work, but Vlad the Impaler of YOSPOS definitely invited his enemies over for an apology thread yesterday evening.

Yeah there was a post somewhere in that feedback thread in PYF that listed the posters who never returned after getting caught in that mass probe crossfire. Many of whom had been around for quite some time.

It's a death by a thousand cuts kinda thing, yeah it's hardly the worst thing to happen on these forums but to me it's a bigger bummer to see plenty of good posters leave over an extended period of time due to a consistent stream of smaller dumb things instead of one big inciting incident causing it.

(To say nothing of how it wasn't the holidays for everyone; personally that was the busiest work week of the year for me! I might not have been caught up in those mass probes but the places I frequented definitely felt quieter.)
