He's at the game, from what I know.
Ok here's a what if:
Ut gets un-banned,
Then after a few weeks of peace, Ut then ( due to god-like levels of irony ) finds some reasons to turn aggressive against pharmakos ( AKA white knight ) making pharm the new target on Ut's angry obsession.
Ending up with pharm leading the calls of "Oh Mods, please ban this faggot!!!"
I don't give a shit about forum drama and didn't even know all this went down until now. I actually have a real life to live.
I do think it is fucked up that you set up your own ultimatum where someone had to Dox themselves or be banned. WTF guys...
Didnt have to dox. Could have blurred out name on check or provide proof in any other way.
Do you think its less fucked up than me forced to go on a caribbean cruise with him just so he could murder me?
No, it is not less fucked up... but he had a manufactured burden of proof and consequences, you did not.
I really find it hard to believe you would have been satisfied with a photoshopped check anyways.

Since this is now the spot for this.
Araysar you want to take another swing at how you didnt instigate this from a position of power?
Tellpharmakos to hit ignore, and we all move on with our lives.
@a_skeleton_03 You said you did a stint as IG? Yes? (answered in other thread)
@a_skeleton_03 Just saw this had a thread in the other forum, just got back etc etc.
So hopping there. The IG question there was along the same vein.
And yes, to answer the question. To be a mod (take authority / power) you should understand you are going to make concessions, and there will be times when you have to do things you dont want to do. Thats the part of being a mod that prevents shit like this. If you are not willing to sacrifice those things, then dont fucking be a mod? Its not a complex thing. If you want to serve the community, the do so, but do not take it under that guise so that you can weild some authority in your own personal shit post fests / IRL BRO moments.
Edit: And no, not end their fun "forever". But there definitely needs to be a point where they have to understand their position and to WALK THE FUCK AWAY.
Dont wanna do that? Dont be a mod? Holy shit, that is hard.

I am living up to my campaign promises.To be fair, in his campaign post, Tuco pretty much said he'd be a shitty, capricious mod who did what he wanted.
People like to keep blame shifting all this to Araysar for some juvenile reason. "Araysar instigated it!" "Araysar shouldn't have done A, B or C!"
Uh. Is UT not responsible for his own actions? If some dude walks up to me and starts insulting my favorite sports team, I am in no way obligated to go full sperglord.
Err, wait...
What?
The dude that walks up to you being Utnayan? Or Araysar?
Anyway. Just because he was mentioned in a thread doesn't mean shit. All he has to do is be a mod, not become personally involved everywhere his name is mentioned.
No dude. I want you to be a fucking adult about it. Realize that with modding will come some shit talking. I haven't read through that entire thing, and I'm not going to.
It's not binary. Stop treating it like it is.
