No, not at all - a general reference.
I refer to Mods justifying their actions where no justification is necessary. I will do whats necessary without explanation.
In my case at least I am not going to get into any kind of debate about it.
In that case I dont know why I should post the next bit but to clarify my own position once and for all as I cant keep repeating myself.
Theres no hidden agenda in a Mods Actions :
Just so everyone understands - There is nothing personal in a mods actions so they should not be taken so. Mods have a job to do - they have been asked to do it and accepted the responsibility. Its a heavy one. I have already lost one good friend here who has taken actions of mine as a Mod as being a personal afront to himself personally, when that was not the case. Thats unfortunate and I very much regret it. However its the penalty for being even handed and having no favourites (as suggested) which one cannot allow oneself to have - thats a pre-requisite of the responsibility.
I once remember Merranvo once saying, and he will remeber this - that as a Mod one may have to take an action against a fellow colleague or user here that might be a good friend on the forum "could you do it? he asked" Well the answer is to be a Mod you have to be able to do it - as hard as it might be. A Mod cannot allow personalities to influence any judgement and they dont.
