And the point still remains why Ush is playing favortism with open-closing threads around the SW EU and VS Forums.
It seems you only replied to one problem and left out the rest.
Left out the rest? I never frequent the Star Wars section. Do you expect me to give account of Ushgarak' s actions when I' m not familiar with the daily state of affairs?

Sorgo was simply pointing out the statistics, the facts. And you're telling him to "feck off" for that?
let me be perfectly clear here.....i never cared much for Ush. he is a chronic know it all who will never admit when he is wrong. he comes off as a bit snooty, like he is better than everyone else here, but....
he is a moderator and there is nothing we can do about it. despite my differences with him, he is, in my opinion, a top notch moderator. for him to close a thread, he must have had a reason. he and i have rarely seen eye to eye on anything, but he has always been cordial to me, very professional.
in my opinion, Ushgarak is one of the best mods here. not my fave, but one of the best.

No, he' s telling him to feck off because of Sorgo' s signature which will, btw do it for him, just as it did with Ianus.
2.) Not unless he's been told to shirk it first, then if he decides to go against and keep it. In that case, yes, it will do it for him. But simply banning him for it with no explanation or warning is obscene, and unfair.

Sorgo is going about this the wrong way. he should pm Raz directly. i have done it before and Raz was always quick to fix the problem.
Holy hell.
In the SW VS forum it's supposed to be SW vs. SW ONLY. NOT SW vs. other stuff.
And how the hell do you expect for the mods to catch things if you don't report them?
For that matter, check the forum rules....

Don't attack others. Personal attacks on others will not be tolerated. Challenge others' points of view and opinions, but do so respectfully and thoughtfully ... without insult and personal attack.
Posting In The Relevant Forums
A forum this size gets a lot of traffic and a lot of threads. It makes life a lot easier for everyone- both for those trying to keep things in order, and those trying to simply find the threads they want to read- if threads are posted in the correct area.
Check to make sure you are posting in the right place. If opening a thread in the Discussion areas- either the General Discussion or Off-topic forums- check first to see if it would be better posted elsewhere. We have seperate art, TV, video games, music, fiction and- of course!- film areas (including threads for actors) where such topics should be posted. If posting about a film, check to see if that film has its own area before posting in the generic Movie Discussion thread.
If you want to start a role-playing game, please go to one of the role-playing areas and read the rules about doing so there.
Threads posted in the wrong area will be moved but a little forethought can make everyone's life a lot happier
The moderators will have final say on what is and what is not allowed.
End of story.

Oh wow!Ushgarak is Adolph Hitler and I'm Joseph Stalin. 🙄
But would it be fair, in your opinion, to at least have offered him the chance to take the signature off before he was banned? And if so, was that the case in this particular scenario?

He wasn't ban just for because of the sig. Ianus had already disobeyed the rules of the forum. And what the hell? All he did was talk about Nazis! Ushgarak told him to knock it off!:
http://www.killermovies.com/forums/f86/t382396.html
Then he went on to call Ush a nazi. WTF? Does that seem fair to you?

Sorgo here may have teetered that line that so divides challenge and personal attack towards Ushgarak regarding his posts. But has he crossed that line yet?
His signature not only crossed it but flew way over it.
And I have seen him frequently attacking and bashing people in the SW forums.
