My major problem with this board (which i think is well known, at least by HB) is that it pisses me off when people are holed/banned without receiving a reason.
Ok, so I lied I guess. I have more to say now.
Noticed what Toppers gripe was? Does anyone ever recall a particular person (uhh..ME) lobbying for such a thing?
just sayin'.

Yes. Its not like the invader hacked the board and destroyed it or posted purposely anatagonizng things chock full of bitterness or anger. He merely toyed with some of you in the same way Alkey and others endorsed and PROMOTED the actions of people like dig, Galt, Keyser and others when they first came here. They were impervious to holings and mods were never trusted to make ANY decisions. If someone was holed, the decision was REVERSED UNEQUIVICALLY.
Also, they were left out to dry when the mods were attacked by the members. I remember a time when Alkey posted that NO MOD will be attacked and if so, they had every right to handle it as that mod saw fit.
Something must have changed that policy along the way.
Why have mods if you are not going to support their judgement calls? I know for a fact that 2 of the now former mods made such a complaint with me in private and when my holings of a certain person was reversed, I too made the same gripe. However, I knew that to complain about it would be a waste of time.
I always said, it's Alkeys World here, we're all just allowed to post in it.
