Default Abuse of power?

It has been brought to my attention that there may be an abuse of power with the new moderators. I have not witnessed this first hand so cannot assume as such. However I can hope that this is not the case as a paying customer of this game. I have posted this in uncivil so I do not "offend" anyone, not that this is intended to do so. Replies may however...

"We don't need no, moderation"

"We don't need no rep control"

"No ghey forum bans, or squelching"

"Hey, new mod, leave us newbs alone"

*insert funky guitar riff*

Way I see it,the forums have been nothing more than a collection of plastic bags,hoarding all the garbage that trolls around these regions.Now,the new moderator is nothing more than the garbage collection man/woman taking out the overdue filth.

Another one of my all time favorites is a room full of cockroaches.

Looks like the exterminator just arived.

I can assure you that no one has been reprimanded unless they have insulted another member or have been uncivil in the civil forums. Mike explained the new infraction system in this thread:
http://forums.nodiatis.com/forums/no...or-nikita.html

Players who are continually needing infractions on here or making extra forum accounts after being infracted to avoid having to wait out their penalty duration will have their Nodiatis accounts squelched too.

It's very easy to not get infracted - just don't be rude to people! =P

The way I see it.If I or a friend gets banned,chances are,someone's screwed up.
I wouldn't get upset about it,because I'd know I'm at fault.
-Humans have a good ability to know when the line is being crossed.Every post players submit,they have a feel for the appropriateness of their comment.
..Insultive?Sucking up?Underlieing feeling of "maybe I shouldn't post this..."?

Everyone knows what they post.If they are reckless,too bad for them.

This thread was posted in response to many complaints seen in chat. I wanted a thread posted about it in more of a professional matter before someone else posted something that would get them... reprimanded lol.

Thank you for your work as a moderator and enjoy the game, if you are playing.

I can only imagine how much whining certain forum-banned players are contributing in the uncivil chat in game right now.So far,I've personally only seen 1,maybe two tops players even comment of power abuse/mods in civil in the last 24 hours.

...Ya really are too polite/mannered for the uncivil section of chat Flip...Come to the light side of civil sometime we got granola!

Everyone sees the line differently.

Personally, I take many things too far and don't realize it at the time.

However, I have the presence of mind to realize if I have crossed the line, to apologize if I am the only one at fault.

Faith, by no disrespect, you are making an assumption that everyone has a clear moral conscience and knows the distinct line between right and wrong.

Once again Faith, I am not flaming you or bashing you. Just pointing out something I noticed.

No Sherman, you are doing what you always do, that is, delight in flaming others when you see any perceived flaw. You need a permaban from the forums. Would make this a much happier place.

Before you ban me, Nikita, check every post Sherman has written.

Bye

Sure, of course I am flaming. That's why that post is filled to the brim with loads of profanity and not one sentence has anything logical in it.

I would appreciate it if you would lose the generalizations, assumptions, and otherwise ignorant thoughts before posting about me again.

By the way, this is the uncivil thread, you can't get banned from insulting another player.

***yy, you seem to think that an oxymoron is an insult.

Next time use a dictionary, I know your English sucks, so don't try to make it look like it doesn't.
