I don't understand the question.
In 2080, Trent the Uncatchable has been away from Earth for over a decade. He has been away from the Wind--away from the "unreal" world that Players call the Inside--the world on the other side of the Interface.
In the experiential world of humans, time is measured not by the passage of seconds, but by the passage of events. Reality is measured by its complexity.
By 2080, cyberspace, the Inside, the Crystal Wind, is over a hundred years removed from the hardware and software on which it was born.
Early in the year 2080, a milestone is passed.
More events are occurring in the Wind than in Realtime:
The Inside has become larger than the Outside.

But then a Shrial Knight, the one named Sarcellus, whose face alone remained pious and devoid of hesitation, answered the Warrior-Prophet in a loud, clear voice.
“‘All things both sacred and vile,’” the Knight-Commander said, quoting the Tusk, “‘speak to the hearts of Men, and they are bewildered, and holding out their hands to darkness, they name it light.’”
The Warrior-Prophet stared at him sharply, and quoted in turn: “‘Hearken Truth, for it strides fiercely among you, and will not be denied.’”
Possessed of a beatific calm, Sarcellus answered: “‘Fear him, for he is the deciever, the Lie made Flesh, come among you to foul the waters of your heart.’”

One should always double-check before taking action, always.
This whole situation personally disgusts me, from both the "mod" and the "user" side. This whole "issue" should have ended on the first post.
"In an act of trying to contain this random, an innocent thread was destroyed.". Honestly?
I really think that as mods we should only act whenever the situation calls for it; trying to "contain the random" is a really stupid concept in itself that goes against forum activity. If this is what we want then the rules should be revised immediately. If I were in his position I would completely understand the feeling of being "targeted", the wording of posts didn't help either.
[T]he moment you start playing their game is the moment you start giving them reasons to continue, changing your avatar and your nick was uncalled for and a really immature move on your part. It was the right cue to take action, let only the action take place and nothing else. Remember that we are nothing but users that have been trusted with the task of keeping the forum healthy and leading by example.

Great topic.
I believe the only way to go in this environment is by example.
- Not by more moderation (if moderation means Work by Moderators)
- not by editing or deleting (please don't)
- not by putting guidelines (or, say, this topic) up in every release section
By example.
I forgot most of the details I read by now, but I think I agreed with what Oz said, and disagree with the approach of Dr. House about tighter moderation.
But with letting people just post "Wow that's awesome" doesn't help anybody except for the creator's ego.
I really think we should do exactly that. Letting people just post. 
It's a principle of this board as I understand it.
Be the good example you want to see more often around here. Encourage people who post well. Provide positive counter-examples of constructive feedback in topics where users post "sucks".
Everybody can help to set moods in a forum. Every time anyone posts.

Then I told some noob, "He would understand when he contributed something." He then gave me links to all of his creations.
That was the moment when I realized that the purple star means nothing. Not that the blue one means anything either.

I have honestly no idea how long it has been, but he was polite and all, so.. im okay with unbanning him, perhaps asking him to post here http://mugenguild.com/forumx/index.php?topic=108164.msg1008350;boardseen#new
about his thoughts on the subject?
(Drunk Ryu has probably been banned several times by now. Or at least he often walked the line. That could explain the ban length. It was probably Titiln or me who set it that long.
Nice to see he's back for now.)

Learned something new. Neat.
And what was it they usually say in (deep) sea documentaries? We know more about the surface of the moon than about what's down below on Earth...

I want to be seduced (into clicking the links of course) - it's a girly thing. And I'm just not feeling it.

There was an additional membergroup like Staff Member in the past.
Every mod / global mod / admin was in it, and it came with staff board access.
I really wanted to drop that membergroup (and then it was made obsolete by the only-Global Mods approach).

Just think how much cleaner the report section would be if he just took care of it all himself.
I think the "what if he messes up" scenario isn't a good enough reason to not give him a shot at it. It's not like he couldn't be kept an eye on for a little bit.
He seems to care enough about the Guild to moderate it.
