To clarify, I meant those who voted should be public knowledge. The people who actually use the board don't have a problem weighing in on the other people using the board, but twice now I've heard mayo use the 'well, people are pming me qqing' reasoning. If people are whining but not posting I don't feel like they're really the kind of people who should be deciding the content on he board with their complaining.
Can this include people who bitch endlessly but don't offer any sort of legitimate solution shouldn't get their voice too? Because I can just ban you from Meta right now and make reading these threads less of an eyesore.
Joklem approached me and wanted Aestu gone and I told him that he should make a public thread about it so people could express their concerns, considering Aestu is someone that everyone has an opinion on. Everyone has a voice on this board and if they don't want to make a gigantic pissfit out of their personal problems (like posting their problems on a highly heated topic in the public spectrum when an issue can be dealt privately), they have every right to act like adults about it.
Is there anything else you'd like to add, because I honestly feel you're just complaining for the sake of it.
EDIT: Right now, there's a 4-7 against and I don't see any new topics on the mod board about it, so unless there's some sort of a massive turnaround in the votes, I consider this a dead issue.
EDIT2: I don't feel like I have to say this, but just to get it out there, if public ban votes like this happen again, I'd appreciate it if mods don't vote on it, because then you'd be essentially double dipping. I'm not saying any of you are, by the way.
