Hi!
i was recently banned by Navyvet while he and I were actively engaged in CM to CM discussion.
Don’t miss the Ivanka Trump bombshell buried in the Times tax story
during this thread the only person who took us off topic appeared to be Navyvet himself.
at no point was I aware he was attempting to moderate, in fact he continually accused me of behavior he alone engaged in.
how can we as CMs know when a mod who is engaging us as a fellow CM, is trying to mod? It would’ve been one thing if another mod came in and clearly told me to move on, but navy and I were actively engaged in numerous back and forth.
Never did he take a step out and stipulate he was moderating, up until that point it was all CM to CM. It seems like he decided it was moderation after I replied and he banned me because he didn’t like me defending myself against a clearly inaccurate claim. I think it’s unfair to expect to be able to glean what is moderation and what is not.
it might set a stage where CMs will need to just ignore all comments made by mods commenting as a CM. How can we tell what will cross the line if no mod voice is invoked?
Asking for my ban to be lifted please, seems like a simple misunderstanding.
