You cannot expect to diss Vizzed like this and not get a reply from loyal members who disagree with you based on their experience. Legacy was not personally attacking you until you made it personal, he was simply refuting the points you had made.

I have been an active part of Vizzed for a year now. Despite being extremely liberal, openly not believing in Christianity, and having a religion that is explicitly not Christian - I am a trusted member and have been chosen to serve as a moderator. I can also speak from experience- I have NEVER been attacked for my beliefs or been a victim of "Christian overlording". The bias you speak of is not there.

Tip: If you don't want to see pro-Christian posts or discussion, simply do not go in the pro-Christian part of the forum. If you bash Christianity then you are bringing it upon yourself, not the other way around.

thenumberone : I agree. I wouldn't be able to defend fellow staff members without repeating exactly what has been said above..

I really hope you reconsider. Vizzed has an extremely diverse userbase and, in general, each person can find at least one place on the forum where they can contribute without conflict, and feel like they belong. If you really feel like the Vizzed community is not worth your time, then by all means, good luck in real life and it was nice knowing you while it lasted.

legacyme3 : That answers a lot.


Belegerbs :
Margoth :

Before I start arguments, I do my homework. Belegerbs has never had any of his threads closed. Margoth has had 4 threads closed:

First- A thread was made for his 100th post. Although it's an accomplishment, it's not a milestone that is worthy of a thread. That rule was established and stated in a stickied thread. He also requested that it be closed (though it was done because he thought he would get in trouble).
Second- I closed it after he asked me to. You can't complain about that.
Third- He made an Ask Anything thread. Again, this is against the rule. If he had started by getting the approval of the staff, he may have been allowed to start the thread.
Fourth- He complained about all of his threads always getting closed. Remember that at this time, 9 of his 12 threads were still open. After making a rather rude comment (and then being called out on it) he requested that the thread be closed.

I don't have the time or patience to go through every last post, but I did notice a trend. Belegerbs has made 53 posts. 20 were in Café Corner and 11 were in Debate. Those two forums naturally come with arguments over more mature conversations. You can't make a post/thread in either of those two forums and guarantee you won't get a reply that contradicts you.

Margoth is in a similar situation except that Café and Debate were not his Top 2 forums. Out of 645 posts, Café was in third with 64 posts and Debate was in eighth with 36 posts. Again, you have to expect people to argue with you. Complaining about it after the fact solves nothing.


If either of you has any specific incident where you felt you were treated unfairly that you would like to reference, I'm willing to listen.

BNuge : Why are we bringing this back about me?, i understand i was wrong, i get it im a moron. Can we get over that?. im pretty sure this thread was about a problem my brother was having... so bringing up all the stuff i did really makes no sense. And to be honest i think this thread needs to be closed. My brother will not be returning.

Margoth : The mods are not calling you a moron. They never have been. We're simply trying to get you to understand what rules you're breaking and why you shouldn't break them. Just for future reference.
