I don't think posts should have to do with anything. It's just about how much 'moderator material' you have. AppleXY doesn't post much, but he's got the material :P

That's true =]
Quality over quantity I guess hehe

Enwiabe, stop trying to disguise your actual bad karma by tampering with it and making it -some massive number. It's ridiculous, and you're not fooling anyone. If you don't like it, then get rid of it (edit:by 'it' i mean the karma system).  We all have karma, so why shouldn't you be accountable??

LOL @ goosefraba saying what we we're all thinking ♥
That referring to the manipulation of karma, not the later part of the post.

Just for record : enwiabe karma = -6

Awww, I can do what I want. It's my website and I may do as I please. It wouldn't be in my best interests to edit my karma up to +50,000, but I don't see the problem in giving myself boundless amounts of negative karma. If a number on a website bothers you so much, shouldn't you then rethink your priorities? If you don't like the way I'm running things, I'd be more than happy to see you leave along with a certain couple of other people who share your opinion about my leadership. The bottom line is, like it or lump it, because I'm not changing the way I run things for somebody as stuck-up and conceited as yourself. I take on board the suggestions of well-meaning and nice people. You are no such person. You're welcome to stick around, but seriously, you're just bordering on pathetic, now.

I think people would rather ignore you.

But I am going to stand up for someone whose privacy you have exploited. You used your administrator powers to get the email of melaniedee, and used Facebook to get her full name. Not funny.

^ Agreed.

I do agree also that the admin should be just as accountable with their karma as anyone else. Otherwise things get a little too "Animal Farm" for my liking (although obviously not nearly as sinister). I don't take it that seriously, I actually think it's kind of funny, but it doesn't seem fair that you automatically aren't held under the same scrutiny as the rest of us.

Whilst you're right, I did use my admin powers to satisfy a curiosity, it wasn't an abuse of powers. Melanie.dee surrendered her e-mail when signing up to FSN, and so long as I don't reveal that, or any private details (and I just fended off an attempt by somebody now, for that matter), I am well within the law of my code of conduct. I simply stipulated that you can't reveal it to anybody. If you feel that's a violation of rights, also consider that melanie.dee said that nobody would ever find out her name, effectively laying down the challenge and partially bringing that upon herself. That being said, I don't even see what I did as wrong, because I regularly look at people's e-mails (in the past it was to determine whether they were bots or not), currently it helps me gain a better understanding of the demographic (many people put 1990 or 1989 in their e-mails). In the past I have identified people previously banned who have signed up and has allowed me to take action.

That I entered that one e-mail into a facebook search to identify someone who was playing funny buggars and going under a different alias was something that I have also done in the past, and in fact, if you must know, I found brogan77 trying to sign up in a similar way after I had initially banned him. Call it a background check if you like, I have not broken any part of the code of conduct. You are not sticking up for anything, Collin.

This is a rather strong ending to a post that isn't actually very fierce in nature. I am sticking up for melanie.dee, so I don't see how you can say I am not sticking up for anything.

I have no concerns about you using emails for administrative tasks, but you cannot compare that to using it for curiosity.

This argument is worrying:

An analogy is that some woman who teased a man by saying "you'll never have sex with me" has effectively laid down the challenge and partially brought rape upon herself. The point is, melanie.dee has been clearly defensive of her personal details, and you have violated that without consent.

Also, it is a straw-man when you defend yourself from breaking the Code of Conduct, I never suggested that you broke the Code of Conduct, I just think the nature of what you did was wrong, and my goal was to expose it so everyone could make their own individual decision about you.
