There was no topic about this in the mod forum until Jester made one a few hours ago. It was our goal to attempt to handle this privately. Obviously it did not go down that way.

i dont see whatever he does outside gw compromises his position here

i mean you guys are treating otomon like he's the best thing ever and he talks (all the time) about how much it turns it him when children are raped by tentacles (or others) himself, but maybe he is more of a joke person (what does this even mean??) so then it's suddenly ok?

idk sounds like hypocrisy to me anyhow

and yeah jester sad to see you go, always figured you had a great sense of humor

i'm not aware of otomon having posted anything other than words. if he did start posting any of the stuff he talks about i'm sure he would get banned very quickly.

oh for fuck's sake Jester was fired because he was an awful mod and I included the pedophilia thing in the PM because it's ridiculous that the best person for the job is a shitty mod who is also a pedo.

I think that it didn't matter much because he had never showed any kind of signs of pedophilia or anything alike on GW, and I think that it's unfortunate to see Jester leave this way. I didn't think it was my, or any of ours business, as long as it didn't affect his behavior on GW. I've heard other arguments of Jester being a bad mod, and I would've been much more satisfied to see that Jester was accused of being a bad mod because of those reasons, and not because he's a pedophile (which he is not, because drawing and doing something are completely different things, although pretty much all of us agree it's a disgusting/sick hobby but whatever it's not my business what Jester draws).

Anyway, bye Jester, I hope you still hang around on IRC because I think you're a cool guy and I'd hate to see you leave GW overall.

EDIT. To clarify, he WAS accused for those reasons too, but the primary reason seemed to be that he's a pedophile, which was a low blow.

big thanx to dragonslayer for sig!

yeah okay, i didn't think that through and this isn't really my argument but whatever.

otomon is just a stupid member, no-one actually likes him and he's been good to laugh at for a couple of weeks. he's inconsequential as far as GW goes because he'll be gone soon enough i expect and he isn't in charge of anything. jester was a bad mod and that's the principle reason he got de-modded, people just understandably react strongly to a pedo being in charge of things - to the extent whether you believe he is or not doesn't matter, the issue has blown out of proportion in relation to the reasons why he is de-modded. jester hasn't been banned and he would be free to continue visiting the forums if he wanted, but things have gotten a bit wild here so there's a chance he won't.

as far as otomon getting treated better than jester goes, it's a pretty oblivious thing to say. nobody likes otomon, he is ridiculous. he is an extremely ridiculous and obscene person who we are laughing at because he is horrendous. the difference is nobody takes him seriously, but when someone is a global moderator you have to take them seriously on the forums and that's why the pedo thing is an issue.

yeah uh no one was arguing to BAN JESTER or whatever, but that he wasn't suited for a position of power. otomon is a disgusting weird guy (even if he is hilarious as shit). lars you don't really know what's going on, let it go.

basically this would have all been quiet but Jester wanted to leave forever and make a topic so. the real reason he was demodded is because he wasn't a very good mod to begin with.

the pedophilia thing did disturb a lot of people, including myself and I've seen some gross shit. a lot of people want to draw a line between ACTUAL PEDOPHILE and DRAWING and if it really bothers you OKAY WE DONT KNOW IF JESTER REALLY WANTS TO MOLEST KIDS EVEN IF HE DRAWS IT OVER AND OVER AND OVER, but the point is that someone like that shouldn't be in an administrative role.

So that blargsnarf thing wasn't just a ridiculously elaborate inside joke? What I saw of it looked pretty silly, like VIDEOGAME PORN for gods sake

Also im curious how anyone ever found out the site then? If it was actually serious, I'd bet Jester didn't just show it off?

yeah this is actually pretty bad

i mean i never heard of the pedo accusations and shit until like just recently and never thought it was true etc "THERE'S NO WAY WE CAN KNOW" or whatever the hell.

but yeah, see you around jester, i didn't really think he seemed that bad but the 'great society/hive-mind of GW' did so whatever.

Man whatever Jester does in his free time is up to him, and iirc he never posted his artwork here (and in fact HATED giving out/people finding out his site) so what the hell does any of it have to do with GW or him being a mod?

I'm not that active on the majority of the forums (am more of an IRC man) so I can't really talk for how well he was doing as a global mod, although I frequently did hear people moaning about it. Personally I didn't have any problems with him (but maybe that's because he was inactive I don't know).

Once again GW handles something which DOESN'T EVEN NEED TO BE HANDLED in a shitty manner, and from 90% of these replies I'm disgusted and fucking disappointed by ALL OF YOU LOT, not Jester. rami saying 'all of us agree it is a sick/disgusting hobby' is a worthless comment and does not need to be said at all, it's just spiteful. None of you are entitled to tell him what he can and can't do, and especially as I've said it's a private hobby so why the fuck do you even care? It's not like he is going HERE IS CARTOON POON LOOK AT THIS LOOK AT THIS LOOK AT THIS ever. I noticed a couple of you mentioning this as well but man I got so pissed off when I heard about this in IRC and even more by reading this topic that I just couldn't take it anymore. Time to grow the fuck up already

edit: I'd recommend locking this up before it becomes a total flame war.
