First of all, thank you for responding, Korby.
While I appreciate the comments, I'm not 100% innocent in this.
for the league chat kick, I could have sworn "[4/24/2013 8:32:03 PM] *** Balrog has changed the conversation picture. ***" was to something pornographic, but I can't really find evidence to show otherwise. In fact, the only evidence I found seems to go against what I think. I just don't think I said "no" to your question[even though it was the correct answer.]
Granted, my memory kind of sucks, so I really won't be able to say much about that, but I'll post what came after it.

It wasn't. I distinctly remember that I changed it to a crop of the image that was linked. Said crop is both my current Steam profile picture and the picture for the CutStuff LoL group I started to try and get everyone on everyone's friends list.
Not going to lie, I did used to tend to plot to kick people on Skype, so Swiss isn't entirely wrong about that.
He is, however, wrong about me kicking everyone I dislike. While I won't name names on the forums to prevent possible problems, I could name quite a few people in many chats who exist despite me not reveling in their presence.
Well, that's nice to know. Thanks for clearing that up.
I do not, however, recall implying that you were an idiot. Would you mind showing me where I did that?
In addition, for a thread that's centered around evaluating my forum moderation, a lot of this seems to be about Skype.
My second post in this thread, second spoiler, me trying to figure out why you kicked me from the main chat. Specifically:
[4/28/2013 4:18:32 PM] Onigiri: growing tired of your shenanigans
[4/28/2013 4:18:48 PM] Balrog: what about the shenanigans of
[4/28/2013 4:18:50 PM] Balrog: everyone else
[4/28/2013 4:18:58 PM] Onigiri: tolerable
[4/28/2013 4:19:14 PM] Balrog: I don't even shenanigan that often
[4/28/2013 4:19:17 PM] Onigiri: everyone else is like one of those stupidly annoying auto-faucets that stays on for a bit then turns offTo me this implied that I was being dumb constantly, while everyone else was only dumb occasionally. (That little "I wanted to do that for a while now" comment you posted also drives me to eyebrow-raising, but I missed out on that until now.) The Skype focus was, well, because Skype logs were all I had knowledge of. The whole point of this thread was to smoke out anyone who felt wronged by you, so they could go public with their experiences and as a community we could figure out what's what. So far you're looking great.
Okay, so...
This topic is asking if we think Korby is doing a good job at moderating the forums. I would say yes. He does a good job at patrolling and keeping things in order, and I can't think of any times offhand that he has acted out of line.
Skype chats are a completely different entity, though, and shouldn't really have any impact on the forum. Korby's mannerisms are a bit different on skype, and sometimes I think he can act a little bit rude or unfriendly possibly due to grudges or something, but I haven't seen any of that affect his forum duties. And as a close friend, I can tell you that, all things considered, Korby means well. He's a good person.
I could speak about his modding behaviors in various skype chats, but I know very little about those chats and their rules/customs, and they have no relevance to his forum modding as far as I can tell.
So, you're saying that Korby has a short fuse in Skype chats but otherwise is quite nice? That lines up well with what's been posted here. It's a bit like how I'm a jokester in forum games, in-game chat, and (yes) Skype chat but quickly straighten up and fly right when it becomes necessary. (For examples, see the last few drama-laden threads I've had a stake in.)
I'd say that this thread is running its course. I'd recommend leaving it open at least until Monday afternoon to make sure everyone sees it, but if a "smoking gun" doesn't appear in that time I don't see the point of continuing. (Don't lock it right now, though.)
