What IS good, and how do we determine it?

[Huggy Bear]

What are we? The federal government? We're not required to post in red or green, or to PM you.  We mainly do that to give people who might not otherwise know we are mods an easy way of figuring it out. You had seven or eight pages consisting mostly of staff admonishing to change your signature. Please, with the "official" bullshit.

You gave this answer clearly because there isn't any instance of a "mod post" telling me to change my sig. If it's your position that mods don't have to make themselves clear, and distinguish normal post for green or red ones... then don't act surprised when someone is confused.
*EDIT*
I'll add a quote from Pandæmonium who just posted this.

When the staff post in their relevant colours, we're posting as staff.

When we post any other time, we post as members. If this is difficult to understand, Randy, I'm not sure what else can be done. But to clarify, here I am posting as a normal member.

There is no added value whatsoever in us having two accounts, or remaining 'anonymous' (why would we want to do that?).

Post your suggestion, by all means, however.

*emphasis* mine
So which is it?

Anyway, you said:

I should add, I've had my sig privileges revoked for quoting someone in my sig, while ironically you quote someone in yours... I could point out others doing the same, but who cares about fairness right?

No, you did not have your signature privileges revoked for quoting someone.  That is what you are lying about. The thread you linked contains pages worth of staff explaining to you exactly why your sig privileges were revoked, and quoting someone was certainly not why.  You know this- but you're so intellectually and blatantly dishonest, you're probably not going to admit it.

It'd be nice to get this thread off the Huggy train.

The first time I quoted someone in my sig, I was told to remove it despite NOT naming anyone, I hadn't visited the forum for a few days and came back to find the sig removed... how does that break the rules?

The second time I quoted someone in my sig, I asked permission because of the first case.

Your continued arguments along this thoroughly discredited line of reasoning (one which you helped to discredit) deserves no respect.

Then you won't mind if i quote you in my sig?

Bees, btw...all have 2 parents.  They reproduce sexually.........

Which you so helpfully corrected me upon...thereby destroying your own argument.  Please, quote away.

Esquilax repeatedly requested that I remove that sig, even though Rhythm clearly indicated that he didn't care if I put it in my signature.... How is that against the rules?
So you're saying that even though the sig broke no rules, Esquilax simply asking for it to be removed (though not officially), should always be regarded as an Official mod request?
