I Am No Longer A Moderator

242k EternalDarkness  2.7 years ago

Apparently, someone has reported a joke I made on SPBC about the current situation in Afghanistan, which Andrew took as enough to remove my moderator role. I no longer have any mod powers, and the red banner will be removed soon too.
It has been a pleasure serving this community for so many years. I have made many friends, and I intend to keep them. I will not be abandoning the game and the community. I'm waiting for the update to finish some awesome builds.
Unfortunately, you can no longer ping me to fix your successor links. That duty now goes to Vincent, Dorian, and whoever gets selected to replace me. I will also no longer be settling disputes, hunting down underaged users, removing copy builds, or performing any other moderator duties.

Yours sincerely,
EternalDarkness

Edit: I was informed that it's actually about a statement I made on the counterproductive influence of BLM on the general view of the African Americans, where I forgot to translate every word to newspeak, on a private server I'm in.

    Thank you all for support. I wasn't expecting so many of you will be there. I can't possibly hope to reply to each of your comments individually, but I appreciate them all.

    @Mousewithamachinegun122 eh, it's just kids. You can't expect kids to be rational. I'm on pretty good terms now, years later, with the very worst of them.

    Although I never experienced you as a mod, from the comments below I can see you were probably one of the best. But those arguments you are having to deal with. Ridiculous. Every day I am amazed by how illogical people can be.

    I agree. People just can’t handle jokes these days. People love to be miserable and blame others for their problems, or sometimes try to make things their problems just to attack others. So sad. @EternalDarkness

    @WarringMunky on the topic of your enthusiasm for the game, given the average quality of your builds, community is not at much of a loss there. As for the context to the comment, it is a standard practice to permanently ban all accounts whose owners are known to be younger than 13 and who cannot prove parental supervision, due to US laws (Jundroo is based in the US). That's how we prevent pedophilia on the internet, to the best of our abilities and authority.

    @LJh1 I don't know about capturing, my comment references a build I made a long time ago called Papa Ed & also references ED saying "I will also no longer be ... hunting down underaged users ... etc" in this post.

    I had a big problem about somebody making pedophilia references on this website full of children, but the website moderators did not have a problem with it & EternalDarkness was vocal in his support of the User who was making that reference.
    My forum post got removed from the site as a ton of people came down on me for hating chomos & wanting their incognito recruitment tactics axed. Kinda killed my enthusiasm for the game & I haven't built much since. Also since that happened, my builds have constantly been made to fall apart or cease functioning.

    @imprezamk I don't. It's simpler to let others deal with the miscreants. I've had my boost of reputation out of it, and there was nothing left for me in that role anyway.

    I thought hunting down underage users was a hobby, not a job

    @EternalDarkness First off, I don’t support banning words. I support using words in normal conversations that aren’t hateful, and the sad truth of the internet is that it has people from all over the world, not just your country. Even if, as you said, are insensitive to using pejorative terms does not mean that your words carry no harm.

    @DatRoadTrainGuy19
    Okay, so in my case, the responsible thing for me to do would be to realize that I caused a fight on the internet accidentally, cross off an item on the bucket list I didn't know I had, and then move on to avoid getting caught up in this whole debacle.
    But still... well, I wanted to say beforehand that I agree with the sentiment, however I also feel responsible to mention that perhaps the response to someone who willingly used a horrible slur isn't to willingly call them a horrible slur.
    Again!, I'm not trying to call you out or anything, I absolutely know that cursed betrayal (Goodness knows I've seen enough cases where an online artist I like turns out to do NSFW, though perhaps that isn't quite the same level as... this), but...
    Well, I guess I'm just trying to talk this down, (even if you've only had like 2 things said here). And calling someone a MiG-15 is a bit dangerous.
    Idk, I don't do this often. This is one of the first major internet fights I've been around or had any part in (save that one argument about labeling russian vehicles with Soviet symbols I had that one time... moving on).
    Umm... yeah. Sorry. Don't know what I'm doing here, but that's my unwanted input for you, no malintent... Peace? Hopefully?

    @EternalDarkness I mean... Balkans.
    From what I've heard (mostly through memes, tbh lol), that last part isn't particularly surprising...

    @BeastHunter that's strictly a US problem. I come from a nation that has been enslaved throughout most of the history, and that doesn't even have black people. Hence, I am completely insensitive to that word, and it doesn't impact my belief in freedom of speech one bit. Quite the opposite, in fact. If we ban words that offend some people, more people will find new words that offend them. We might as well, at that point, make a list of words approved by the government and not use any others.
    In the culture I come from, nobody is offended by pejoratives. They are just names for certain groups of people.
