    Dude...he plugged the pyramid scheme he 'invested' in on the board...then deleted any posts or threads that expressed disagreement with that...then pinned and locked his initial thread so it would stay at the top.

    Whatever 'it' was, he definitely started it.

    That's not true. At. All.

    He started deleting comments in the initial thread almost immediately. He then locked said thread (and pinned it to the top) so no more comments could be made. So in response to that, posters started new threads discussing the topic. Which he then started deleting as fast as they popped up.

    It boggles my mind why you're so relentlessly defending 34's ability to act that way.

    I agree that plugging the coffee was not wise but this is more about how much authority a mod should have over an owner

    He isn?t banned and the majority of his badgering was a coordinated effort amongst owners of the board. He was just the guinea pig that posted it.
    Yes- that Behr

    It boggles my mind that a mod can undo things that a owner does. That's the bottom line. Was c34 in the wrong? Sure but regardless no mod should be allowed to take it upon himself to try to do whatever he wants.

    the thread was locked after 6 posts. It was there for people to see- if they didn’t want anything to do with it? Ok
    But the Mod kept unlocking to make a big deal out of it. Sorry but owner trumps mod

    Shouldn't you be taking this up with the other owners? They're owners, so the mods have exactly as much power as the owners want them to have.

    I'm extremely curious as to why you care this much about the level of authority a mod has over an owner. What does it matter to you? Said owner did something a huge majority of the board disliked, so I'm not sure why anyone has a real problem with it. Why do you, a non-owner, care about what a mod can or can't do to an owner?

    Or heck, you said if C34 wanted, he'd be back and this mod would be gone. So isn't your beef really with C34?

    Because I'm a part of the board. Do you care if a congressman can outrank the president?

    Lol...terrible analogy, Matt. That is precisely why we have checks and balances, and that also applies to the POTUS...in a big way.

    No one but you, preacher, cares about the administrative hierarchy on a free message board. Everyone else's problem is with the abuse of power to pitch a pyramid scheme and silence detractors.

    This situation is in no way comparable to that...but if the President had the ability to invade my life with his own snake oil interests and then get rid of any opposition to him...then yeah, I would support a congressman being able to counter that.

    Or do you support a President's ability to do whatever the heck he pleases at any point in time?

    A group of congressmen... not a single one. That's what happened here.
