DNS is under attack.

I'm taking a break from SW. The drama has gotten so bad and it's very personal. I don't know why they feel the need to act like they do, like bullies on the playground, but they do. The "secret order" problem is just too much. I need a cooling down period. I'm headed to Austin in two weeks and really don't want to deal with the com mods right now.

Only on the east coast, I think.

Can someone please remove my account. I'm not on here that much and the Mango vs SW stuff is tiring to me. I don't see any way to remove or deactivate my account, so mods, please either show me how or do it on my behalf. Thanks!

What versus stuff are you talking about?
He means like this post, I guess.

Didn't someone post here that the west was under attach now too?

Oh, well then... weird. Maybe they moved to attacking another region once the east coast was dealing with it a bit better?

Didn't know anything about this... is there a link somewhere?

I'm just asking for my account to be removed or deactivated. That's it. Please let me know if this can be done. Thank you.

Hey, and the community mods continue with another personal attack and deleting the response to it!!
I'll post a screenshot once IMGUR is back.

Okay, the REAL moderator just got into the office and is looking into things. SW themselves will respond soon. I have little expectation that SW has anything to do with this, this is all about community mods out of control.

But really, this is just a post about the community mods, not SW. But the mods themselves are possibly butthurt.

Woot, and SW has stepped in and my posts are being restored. So the OFFICIAL stance is good, it was comm mods acting inappropriately that was the issue. That will happen, can't be helped if you have comm mods. It just goes with the territory. Glad to see that SW is still running on an even keel.

@scottalanmiller Good news indeed.

I like to think of it as being pro-SW that we care enough to try to help and not like the bad community moderators try to undermine the community. I've seen the bevy of threads about ML on SW, do you feel the same way about the posts in the other direction? If not, why does one come across as tiring and one not? And as this was not an ML vs SW post, what are you seeing?

Yes, I'm hoping that an official policy statement gets made so that we have something to point to in the future rather than a more ambiguous "this isn't good moderation practice" soft of thing. I'm not aware of there being any official policy on it, at this time.
Which is a good time to mention that ML should have one of those for mods, as well. Even though there are not comm mods on ML, I think we'd all like to see a comprehensive mod policy here, too. It's a bit of a wild west situation, at the moment. Which isn't all bad, the wild west actually held up pretty well when the population was low. But as the west got bigger, the wild elements don't keep working.
