you obviously hate dids. is there an example of "why" that you can give, or is it merely because he is fat?

I don't hate him. I rarely have anything to do with the guy or his forum, and we've never had a run in. He just seems annoying. Read the stickies in his forum for his kind of grating attitude and self-important demeanour. Compare with (say) Mike Haven's attitude, who deals with a similar class of posters with a lot more grace. It's pretty obvious why many people don't like Dids.

I guess I disagree, thus I started this thread.

I read his stickys and don't see any "self-important stuff" or his "grating attitude", but maybe that's because i am self-important and have a grating attitude.

Phil accidentially hits on part of it.

Those stickies are obviously intended as humor. A lot of the humor in my modding is a parody of self-importance.

People who don't get it, or just relish in outrage, tend to take me far more seriously than I intend.

That said, Phil isn't really bringing anything to the table here, as like he's said, we've never really interacted. If this thread has any merit, it will come from some of the people like Bluffthis, who have spoken about me in the past. Phil's basically just trolling and making stupid generalizations about fat people.

Dids is a great moderator. I've never seen him make a decision I consider noteworthy or strange, which is amazing considering his forum and who he has to deal with.

Doubly-amazing because I disagree with a large number of opinions/judgements that he expresses in other forums, and yet he remains appropriately objective with his modding.

I don't think that many people hate him. Like he says, they are just loud.

I suspected this, as most people suck at humor.

A parody of self importance? Many a true word. BTW, humor is funny. There's nothing funny in those stickies, just a lot of trying to be clever. Which annoys people.

You're good at appearing reasonable when put under scrutiny, which is probably how you got a mod spot in the first place and avoided the constant heat from your poor moderation choices. Take off the scrutiny a bit, and you have a pretty bad attitude underneath it all.

I'm done. Cue BluffTHIS.

Phil, can you give and example of a thread/post/mod decision here to help me understand? All you seem to be saying is that "Dids has a bad attitude and sucks", which may indeed be true, but I'd like to have something tangible here.
