Elections mean electorate is the source of power for elected to repress minority, not majority.

Sorry. That's just the way it is. I personally don't care if baton comes back because I know he'll fuck up again. But i digress... If they (IV) wanted there to be a voting system for moderators and bans/unbans. But there isn't. Hell they even took polls away because they don't want to deal with it. So it is simply no it won't happen. There's 3 active mods for us. If they come to a unanimous decision then go for it. I'm ok with the powers at be doing that if they think it's right.

Does anybody have any reasons why Baton should be unbanned?

I'm willing to hear you out on that. I'm not interested in hearing your heckles, your arguments ad populum, or any insults you may wish to hurl at me.

Reason. That's it.

You're an asshole. Thought we'd get that out of the way for everybody and just build from there.

Now this might have some merit to it. How, exactly, is Baton's behavior distinguishable from CE's or the other dickheads that have been removed? After all, they both launched vicious personal attacks, they both spammed the forums to "fight injustice", and they both broke several promises to behave.

Furthermore, the so-called dickhead group wants to be here just as much as Baton wants to be here. They both change their identity to evade bans, and rally support from other users and petition other mods to have their bans overturned.

I believe we were "the community/majority" clear to say that we wanted Baton to get unbanned. Simply this!

Right, like I said, an argument ad populum isn't gonna cut it. You need reasons.

Please stop saying you're the majority. That's 10 people you listed, most haven't even really said that they want him back, more of they want change by the moderators.

Another reason for this, very simply, is that Vic and Lakia, two moderators are shown supporting the unbanning of Baton.

You're incorrect. Vic is apathetic about the topic, and Laika wishes to see more discussion and information before making up his mind.

Now, please, tell me why do you think that Baton should be unbanned?

Well, I'm not here to defeat dogmatism. That's your problem if you fail to take an easy reading on people’s reactions to your rigid certainty.

As I've mentioned several times before, Baton has been banned for several distinct reasons. Please feel free to scroll through my posts in this thread and read them at your leisure.

In the meantime, since you don't have any reasons for unbanning Baton, he will remain banned.

That might be a good question say if it was coming from another moderator other then you. You made it clear,that you will not un ban baton. You are not a fair broker. And I know this because you have moderated this very thread when you should have been hands off.

So you don't have any reasons either. Ok. As I stated earlier, I'm not interested in any heckles or insults you may wish to hurl at me.

If another moderator will kindly step up to take your place and ask the question and work to resolve the baton ban,get the community past this, we need a fair broker for peace. And you are not it sir.
