As all of you who participate in simsecret know, this week was a bit of a clusterfuck. hidden_kitten apparently gets a stick up her ass and decides that she will be the sole judge of what is and isn't a secret.

that's a lot of links! but there was a lot of shit going wrong with this week's post. Some of the mods there DO need to chill a LOT and remember what we were taught in preschool - just because someone hits you, it doesn't mean it's okay to hit back.

I think they should have polled the comm about it first. Mistakes happen, and hindsight is 20/20, but the attitude coming out of some of the mods (and not just from this week) is not acceptable, IMO.

It was, and there could have been a million more, had I been so inclined, LOL. This shit was all over the place. I just don't understand why they want to make so much more work for themselves! It's a control issue.

And given how much some of them complain about how hard it is...you think they'd want to make it easier on themselves.

This may just end up in mock_the_mods at this rate!

It's pretty quiet these days, but mods aren't infallible!

My guess? They won't. They'll ignore this entire post. I could be wrong, but that's what I think.

They responded to me. They may be waiting to see if the furor dies down. The more people who point out that they are overreacting the more they are likely to.

They all seem very young to me.
