At first I thought this was a FFXI quitting thread because it wasn't green.
Either way try to enjoy your break Krizz!

I'm sorry but I find it pretty insulting to the other mods that people insinuate that they are incapable of doing their job. I'm sure they can keep things clean, as far as profanity filtering photos and defusing arguments that have come down to nothing but personal attacks.
Im sure they are already looking for a new mod. Hopefully its someone that wont stifle discussion just because people get passionate about what they are arguing. Heated debates will happen, but it's not really fair to just topic ban one person while the other can keeps spewing what they wish.

Wouldn't that be the same as placing all of the fault on Krizz? Unless there's some kind of database that you use to track all of it, then you're just basing all that on the memory of your personal experiences or other people whining. Not sure that's a good method.
Or is it because he's willing to 1. ask people to settle down, 2. warn people, 3. give them chances to play nice instead of simply banning someone from a thread that he gets all of the negative attention?
Not saying that the decision is "bad," but ***, if people wanna give a guy some love and credit, let them.

I have seen other mods do the same as well. Although I believe they show much better judgement on when they need to get involved when a debate turns into a pissing contest.
Again, its insulting to say that other mods don't do what they need to do and only one of them did.
People can give him credit if they wish, but it shouldn't be at the expense of other mods by making it seem like hes the only one that did his job.

That I disagree.
Me and Anye try our best to be here as much as we can. We didn't post out as much but instead PM the poster. We do our jobs and some of us yes are more judging and can be reasonable if the poster works with us in the rules. We enforce the rules just like he did. If we miss one or a few, another mod can catch it. I am not on here 24/7 and I wish to be in bed right now but I choose to stay up a bit longer to watch.
If you work with me or a mod, the better the outcome. I know many here have had a PM from me and from Anye.

We enforce the rules just like he did. Honest question, is this politics or do you really call what he did simple enforcement? Interception of PMs, deletion of old posts with no questionable content, questionable use of topicbanning, etc.
The sheer volume of crap that has come about as a result of the moderation that has occured in the past few months needs to be properly and openly addressed. I'm still not sure how that thread Krizz posted with Jaerik's criteria for a mod didn't incite a massive shitstorm to follow the one that had just ended (not to say that was/would have been Krizz's fault).

I got banned for three *** weeks for telling the man to grow up. He was on a glorified power trip, while he wasn't always a bad moderator, he was not fit for the job. I don't see a capable moderator of any community as having the need to skew facts, use only evidence that he deems fit, and very clearly harbor certain people above others in his regime of "justice".

All the best Krizz, I know perfectly well the trials and tribulations that come with modship to a popular community forum such as this, you simply can't please everyone.
Enforcing order constantly and raking through post after post to ensure rules are being met, is very time consuming, and I am sure we all in one way shape or form appreciate your work with ffxiAH.

Pretty much what I mean. I've seen you and Anye actually try and work with people, and not just out right delete their posts that have good info in it and other things he did.
Part of it has to do with I'm sure that most posters here have more respect for you and Anye than they did for Krizz.

I wonder how many people think this gives them free license to run completely wild and once again incur the wrath of google ads. <__< This should be interesting. D:

Well...do you see why you were?
That's like telling your teacher to F off and not get a consequence for what you did. Basically undermining an authority can get you in trouble. And yes 3 weeks was too long. (If any know that you got tempbanned, make sure you PM one of us if you know its been a week.)
When I started out as a mod, many thought and some still do think I am on a power trip *stares*.

A moderator being stripped of power (temporarily or not) isn't grounds for anarchy, it's simply a harbinger for a more fair justice system (so to speak).

Yes, telling him to grow up is exactly like telling my professor to f off. His moderation powers should not exempt him from being called out on his ***. Fascism is a very flawed method of Government, and I do hope that you are not implying that that's what we should treat FFXIAH's moderation system as.

I think you should give some of the posters more credit :|
I don't like it when people think we need to be guided and held by our hands or we'll some how end up shitting the whole place up :/
