can we openly discuss?

I make it a point to not question mod decisions, but i would like to discuss what happened tonight in a calm and fair manner... is that possible in this forum?

they aren't likely to discuss it with you, but here's the quick rundown


Essence went into meltdown. He started posting threads in the wrong forums to stir up trouble, then when people started discussing the issues, he started flaming them. Then, when he wanted to run away from it, he deactivated himself. But due to a bug that lets people still post for awhile after deactivation, he decided to hang around and really go over the edge, posting extremely insulting personal attacks about people, mostly about Ian and I, until he finally faded away. Lots of things snipped/locked/deleted.

i really am not going to discuss it untill i get an okay.

but i will say that essence's behavior has always been... lacking. the 9/11 memorial incidence alone is a perfect example, but that is not what is bothering me.

i have a pretty good idea of what happened, and really am not interested in that, but thank you aaron.

well then why start a thread about it, instead of orgnoting the moderaters about whatever it is that happened? and the 2 things that i mentioned were all that i'm aware of happening (of note, anyway) are what i mentioned above.

i'm not trying to argue with you. i'm asking you a legitimate question. if you don't want to discuss it until a moderator is involved, why don't you just discuss it with a moderator privately?

yes, but if you aren't going to say what it is, then how can anyone discuss it, including the moderators?
