[QUOTE]Originally posted by TSN: [QB] And this is why I don't come into the Flameboard... I'll admit, just from what I saw over the past couple weeks, I thought Lee was becoming a bit erratic, too. And I didn't even know about these apparent malicious e-mails and such. However, I think the problem here is this suspension. CC says he did it to help Lee. But, to everyone else, a forced suspension is something that happens as a punishment. Perhaps, if CC had asked Lee to take some time off voluntarily, or something to that effect, everyone wouldn't have gotten the impression that Lee had been kicked out. And I think that's exactly the impression people are getting, and that's why they're so mad about it. I want to assert that I mean no offense by this, but I think CC has a tendency, sometimes, to take action w/o knowing what consequences will come of it. We have a perfect example right in front of us: Daryus. CC's already admitted that he suspended Daryus before he knew exactly what had happened. I'll admit, if he suspected Daryus of malice in corrupting the profile database, it may have been a wise precaution to take away his admin privileges. However, the mistake came in blatantly announcing it to the entire Forums. He didn't forsee that Daryus might be innocent and that these rash actions could make CC look bad (and, I think, help people to second-guess his suspension of Lee). Another example has already been mentioned: the Destroyer of Forums. CC masterminded the destruction of the SFCR, but didn't admit it. At the time, this probably seemed like a good idea, as he would have gotten in trouble if his role was known. However, he didn't know then that, later, when his part in it would be revealed during his fight w/ Adam, the fact that he had lied about it would cause people to distrust him. Basically, what I'm saying is that CC has done things in the past that, through lack of foresight, have backfired on him, despite his intentions. Lee's suspension falls into the same category. The situation was handled poorly, and it angered people. Where there's anger, there are people taking sides. And when people take sides, we end up w/ flame wars, just like this thread. I'd like to suggest that, rather than continuing to fling the proverbial mud at one another, we try to come up w/ a solution to this problem that is as satisfactory as possible to all involved. Can we try to resolve something peacefully for once? [/QB][/QUOTE]
