What I hate is the little buggers who lurk around the boards and report every little breach of the ToS.

Yeah, that's one of the reasons why I read the ToS after I got my first moderation. I made sure no one would mod me again.

Still wrong though. A site that I was admin off had that problem, so I respect sites like GS for their work. I know how hard it is trying to stop them.

I wanted to make a new accont and happened to join this mod union on the same day and an admin who lurks there revealed my old account (this one) and accused me of creating an account just so I could infiltrate the union. I dislike him greatly, I think his name was Dracula99 or something.

The moderator collective. Where mods preach they are no different from normal users, then why have a union about them? I couldn't post there for long, I felt under to much scrutiny.

If he does anything like that again to you, then you could report that. The admin is going against the very own ToS.

I wouldn't post either. I did one time discover a hidden moderater board though, that was sooooo spammy and against the rules. Didn't say anything though since I'd probably be the one to get in trouble if I reported it.:P

With mods its not a cse of winning its just they never back down, and then the admins back the mods up.

The mods have a seceret union/board only mods are allowed to see and post in.

They probably do have a secret board. I know that in a site I was admin of, I made a secret board only viewable to mods, so I bet they have one here as well. I know that have a secret union that is pretty well hidden that was off-topic, before that moderater collective union.

The Moderator collective is just a very strict OT union with a bad atmosphere, with nosey admins who check your not ban dodging as soon as you arrive.
