Rule Change (New Staff Power)

[Heat]

1. Never said that I had a low opinion of staff

Your entire post belies that. If you think that staff would or does engage in bullying and coercion, that is by definition a low opinion of the staff.

2. Only said there would be a possibility of these things happening, which there is.

There is also a possibility of me hitting the 'Purge Spammer' button on the bottom of every single post from every non staff member. With two clicks, I could wipe out any member and every post they ever posted. Any staff member could do that at any time. Wonder why it hasn't happened yet?

3. Never said this would happen, or even remotely said there was a high probability of it happening. I was simply pointing out that it has some flaws that could allow things like this to happen, not that it will allow things like this to happen.

What flaws does this power have that any other power doesn't? Are the other staff powers less susceptible to coercion or bullying or favor trading?

4. Never said staff was corrupt.

Then what is the problem? If you're not suggesting staff has some corruption, then how could you "see staff getting mad at each other for possibly not voting yes, because of their own personal opinions, or staff possibly trying to coerce each other in to voting to pass it." Who on staff could you see doing something like that?

5. Stop making assumptions and getting up in arms for no reason about what your own imagination conjured up as representing what I said, when in reality it's no where near it.

Those are your words, no? Please tell me how your words mean something different than what they mean.

You know what i'm just not going to respond anymore because I don't feel like getting misrepresented.
