Topic: Q: Should Lauda *really* be a moderator of bitcointalk A: no - page 23. (Read 43417 times)

Where did you find this or is this something that you've concluded based on your own (subjective) perception of how things should be?

Cherry picking is not nice. User-to-user interaction (trust) is not relevant here. If what you say was the case, then whenever a staff member has an argument with somebody they aren't allowed to leave them a trust rating anytime afterwards because that would mean that they can't be impartial? This is one of the reasons why trust is not moderated.

I have never retaliated against anyone. There have been at least 2 threads about me by two different users that were slander at best, I did not touch either one of them. In these cases it is best to report it to others and let them decide, which is what I did and will keep doing.

There are reasons for which I didn't give you a rating at first, and they are reasons for which I left it to you now. If you want to talk, then do so via PM as I will not reveal things here. I don't need drama.

Indeed. The staff consists of various people with various beliefs and opinions. After joining we are allowed to (or encouraged IIRC) to continue our usual posting.

Whenever you post about what the current forum policies/rules are you are posting/acting as a moderator. This is why some threads specifically ask for the assistance of a moderator/administrator so that someone with actual authority can help with a situation.

I called you out on calling someone a retard, making you look bad, and subsequently did something to retaliate against me. Why should you be trusted to be fair and impartial when moderating the forum when you have a history of retaliate against someone who spoke out against you?

Lauda been accused of doing many things, from contradicting, saying things he/she shouldn't, etc.
But why all the hate? He/She's not necessarily speaking as a staff member, in some case she could be a staff member, in other cases, she/he is speaking for herself/himself.



Okay, that's just creepy.

So wherever I post I'm acting as a moderator? That's not how this works.

Trust rating has nothing to do with being a staff member; straw-man argument.

I'm the most active (non global) moderator along with Mitchell (last month stats). You don't understand how those payments work, so you can't use them as an argument. Let's not misuse Lutpin's words though. He said I'm part of the group that handles the most reports.

No. I have no relations with Blockstream.

Let's not involve things that are irrelevant please. I'm not sharing my reasons for certain things and I stand by my decisions.

Lauda is both a he, a she and neither at the same time!

Wow that is a lot of quotes up there. I am not sure why anyone would be interested in reading #10-14....maybe someone who did read those wants to do a tl;dr

Lauda called someone a retard (when acting as a moderator) here, and I called him out on it here (I have since deleted the post, however it should be available in the thread history). When I was made aware of the fact that Lauda edited his post to remove him calling that person a retard, I removed my post calling him out and told Lauda that I was only sticking up for the person that he called a retard. I subsequently received a retaliatory negative trust rating from Lauda over something that happened 6 months ago, and that Lauda reasonably had known about for 6 months. When I asked Lauda about the negative rating, he claimed that it was suppose to be a neutral rating, changed it to neutral and told me that I "know the reasoning".

I am not sure if the above warrants for the calling of Lauda to be removed as a moderator. Lauda does apparently spend a lot of time on here, so he would be able to handle reports as he receives them. According to Lutpin, Lauda handles the most reports out of all the moderators, although his most recent mod payment would suggest otherwise.

Lauda is also a blockstream fanboy, and will back the company line of whatever blockstream says, regardless of logic, reasoning, or facts. This is probably going to work in Lauda's favor so someone with a "staff" tag can blindly back whatever blockstream says/wants.....it should probably be the opposite however. Considering that theymos is now an active supporter of blockstream/LN, I think it will work in Lauda's favor.

Lauda is honestly one of the most fair mods I've encountered here in the btct wilderness.


I think my eyes just started bleeding again, less than half an hour after looking at bitcontalk

Edit - I've never been around to say this, but I've been googling giggling (typo, nuff said.) at your avatar since the day I joined this forum.

^^^ *snorfle*

Eloquently put, Vod.

I know Lauda better than most here.

She pissed me off one time, and I told her off, and he apologized.

And I understood his point of view, and I forgave her completely.

Yes, Lauda is a great mod.

BTW, are you the Mitchell taking Bitcointalk ban requests from the malcontents at Frap.doc's forum?

It was said earlier but worth repeating.

Should Lauda be a Mod, HELL NO!

Global Mod ABSOLUTELY!



I've never had any issues with Lauda and disagreed with this person on several occasions.

I never saw any retribution due to them being a mod.



~BCX~

  so ?

Meow.

I'm still patiently waiting for OP to provide examples that back up those claims.

, I'm not obsessed ...I've only asked it 1 time. For me Lauda is a good mod. and she should not be removed from the staff (that's all).

cool down guys.... here she is:

I guess its not, I just dont understand the obsession with this. Its a thread about their position as moderator. Penis or not should not matter for this.

*cough* http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=lauda&defid=4520051 *cough*

I only wanted to know, is this a problem ?  Is this thread about Lauda or am I wrong ?

Why did this become a penis or not discussion?

Is lauda a girl  ?


I thought all the time that Lauda was a boy  . Nothing against Lauda, only to know.
