| May 17, 2019 at 16:57 | comment | added | Murathan1 | I respect Mr. Suminda's opinions he have great knowledge about Buddhism but I love Ven. Yuttadhammo. This comment is a general suggestion about the subject: The best thing is one morning writing all of the facts about a moderator with details ;) | |
| May 25, 2017 at 9:00 | comment | added | ChrisW Mod | @MettaforBullies Yes I assumed that this question was posted in context (of Suminda's disagreement with yuttadhammo), and my comment was posted in that context. I can see, now you tell me, that my comment could be misunderstood by "other people who know nothing of what inspired the question" ... I wasn't thinking of them/that, when I posted my comment and downvoted. Sorry that I wasn't clearer, when I posted that comment. | |
| May 25, 2017 at 4:01 | comment | added | Suminda Sirinath S. Dharmasena | I posted this so there is awareness about the process how a moderator can be removed. The attitude that moderators should not be removed or the community should not know about this process is unfortunate. This is about how to deal with any moderator who might go bad. 1st Instance that happened was in: buddhism.stackexchange.com/questions/3770 where reference to pali.sirimangalo.org without mentioning affiliation which is considered Spam but the moderator, at that time, is getting away with it. Any other user may get moderated for something like that. Rules should be. | |
| May 24, 2017 at 22:43 | comment | added | Lowbrow | @ChrisW Boy, you respond quick, sorry if I have been confusing. Don't other people who know nothing of what inspired the question just want an answer to the question, not an opinion to the question? The question had nothing to do with Bhante Yuttadhammo the way it is worded. It sounds like your saying something crazy to the user that doesn't know how the whole thing with Bhante Yuttadhammo and Suminda went down. I know your not that bad but others might get confused. | |
| May 24, 2017 at 22:24 | comment | added | ChrisW Mod | @MettaforBullies Voting is different on meta says, "voting indicates agreement or disagreement with the proposed change rather than just the quality or usefulness of the post itself" -- so I was voting to disagree with the proposed change, which I thought was Suminda's proposing to remove yuttadhammo as moderator. I wasn't disagreeing with the question in general or in the abstract; I was disagreeing with Suminda's pursuing yuttadhammo's removal. | |
| May 24, 2017 at 21:15 | comment | added | ChrisW Mod | @MettaforBullies The moderator in question was yuttadhammo, and I was saying I disagreed with removing him and with Suminda's arguing against him. There are ways to remove a moderator, but you can't remove a moderator by yourself: to do it you would need consensus: from the moderator (who could agree to quit); from the community of users; from the other moderators; and/or from the "community moderators" i.e. stack exchange employees. | |
| Dec 9, 2015 at 2:28 | comment | added | Suminda Sirinath S. Dharmasena | This is a very old discussion. I also have to come to believe this is not the solution, but should be based on development of more guidelines what and how to do it. | |
| Dec 8, 2015 at 21:17 | comment | added | Theravada | I think it would be a harder job to find a replacement. Yes things happen and sometimes they hit a nerve. After all there is hardly anything that can't be ended with a discussion. | |
