a moderator posted in a thread something that was rather clearly in violation of tos. several posters saw it and commented on it. speaking only for myself, i pm'ed the moderator and pointed out their posting. the moderator replied rather promptly and apologized for their error. they had simply forgotten. ok, we are all human, we all do that that sort of thing.
however, while they admitted they had made an error that was in violation of tos, they did not go back and fix it. nor did any of the moderators of that thread. true, the poster was a moderator. but they were posting as a general member. actions like that do make one wonder.

Supermods can close and/or move any thread in any forum; however, if it is a forum THAT ALREADY HAS A MODERATOR it is exceptionally rude to do so. The supermods only have superior technical abilities. Their "super" status does not mean they have been found to be people who make better decisions than the other mods, or that they know more about Greek life than the other mods. We (mods we) all have different interpretations of the TOS, as well as know what is and is not OK to have in a particular org's forum (to wit: NPHC recruitment vs NPC recruitment).
If a supermod ever does close or move threads in a modded forum, it's usually because the mod of that forum is offline for a period and has requested that people "look out" for goings on in the forum.
If PenguinTrax cleaned up some threads in the Recruitment forum, it is because she is a Recruitment mod, NOT because she is a supermod.
And irishpipes, I agree with your whole post. I think GC is a happy medium between yukky things like juicy campus and the sanitized version of Greek life on many national or chapter websites. If it wasn't, we wouldn't have as many people visiting here as we do.

Just confirming that this is pretty much the consensus about SuperMod stuff from our recent discussions.
Tippiechick, I think we would all like for John to be around more often to clean stuff up/solve problems. Mods and non-mods alike.

It was more to clear what I thought was your confusion. The supermods have already heard me say all that.

Being banned on GC is like being killed off on a soap opera; it's never really final. (Die again, Stefano... for real this time!)

And we love you for it. I really wanted to see what all the fuss was about, and I see it was completely justified.
I move that OTW be nominated for GC Member of the Year.

Yes, but you do no better than spit out the same old dogma of others!
I do not know know whether you beleive your own post or just follow like a puppy getting treats?
You as an individual suck and try to act so holier than thou!
God I guess loves you as much as He does anyone here. Get the message?
Do you live with me? Not!
Do you know if I am drunk?
Do you know that I have a hard time typing because of pain?
As usual, you spout crap and have no damn clue except what you read and follow like the little lap animal that you are!
Posters are getting so very tired of the crap that those like you want to spread and mess with new people who come on a used to be a fine GLO site.
It is not the site, but some of the people who have ruined it!
Count yourself as one of them.
All I did was explain what some posters asked and you as usual want to besmirch me as usual.
You mean nothing to me, I have wiped things like you off of my boots in the barn yard!
Racist, was one of your words! Yes, I am as I do not like people like you who say things like this and have no damn clue what you are talking about.
I have more friends who are white, black and asian than you may ever even thought about!
I also have dated all of the above. Have you? I doubt it along with the majority on this site!
Your viperous tounge is unbecoming on this site!
Either put up or shut the hell up!

After EE-BO's thread, this is the funniest thing I've read here today.
