Should Que Step Down as a Moderator on INGO?

[KellyinAvon]

You ALL are heaping WAY more onto this than I am. Some of you obviously have not read Que's quotation. I didn't ask for a "mod to be banned", that's utter CRAP. Que cited "several" instances where decisions he has made led to "trouble" on the board and asked for our opinions. The word "democracy" has been used several times here.. Can you not read? Que and I both acknowledged this is not a democracy but some of you are using this as a reason for the poll to not be valid. The poll is not valid because YOU choose to make it so.

You do realize you've passed the point you should have left well enough alone?

Where do I pick up my 'I Voted" sticker?

You made it about Que when you chose to pose the poll question. You are trying to say that this thread was created to foster a constructive discussion about moderation inconsistencies. Is it about that or is it about Que stepping down? If not then why did'nt you just start a thread entitled " A discussion about moderation inconsistencies" or something like that?

I still stand by my previous post and say it's a personal un-resovled issue.

I haven't been on INGO as long as you have and even I knew this would degrade quickly. These types of threads are rarely "constructive", mostly just hilarious. But hey, keep the conversation going, I love cat memes.

I voted no.

So if a moderator asks members to start a poll because he wants feedback on the job he is doing it's not right to start that poll?

What did I miss here? I've been contributing and behaving for three months on INGO and when another thread prompts me to do the poll you all crucify me for having a "dull axe to grind"? Should I have started the poll right away or cooled off first? Or would either choice have been the wrong one? And should I have read between the lines that the mod in question really didn't want a poll after all?

We ALL get emotionally involved in these topics, moderators included. It goes with the territory of having strong beliefs and values, which is a good thing until it goes too far.

So just when were "you" ask to start this poll?

Oh ya

That's racist.

This isn't a serious poll. Bacons not a choice!

My quote "So if a moderator asks members..." should clearly indicate he asked any of us, not just me... Fear of reprisal keeps a lid on stuff like this. I tried to do this impartially as I could with full disclosure in the OP. I made the poll questions themselves neutral with no leading language.

And of course, I knew how the poll would go. I just didn't know how many of you would descend upon me for starting it (including Que).
