Proclaiming that it was a miracle. Seems like you had an impression of what I was like woven into the tapestry that is your perception of me
The opinions others have about us are based on our words and actions, dear.

One can say, "I am really not a quarrelsome kid who feels like he has something to prove, even though I act like that. Deep inside I am a very peace-loving and agreeable prson." all he/she wants, but people are
still gonna judge one based on what he/she does and says.
An event that triggers moral ignorance (which is usually a matter of time, since the more time that elapses, the greater the chance of the event happening). There have been many people in history who have avoided being corrupted by power. I would wager that a good many of these people had the power taken away before the event happened. The point is that given enough time the event can happen to anyone, except those wildly sparse few who have a genetic disposition towards altruism (and they are few and far between).
Wow. That was.. *sniff* so beautiful. *whipes tear* So... phylosophycal and psychology-like. Unfortunately, it does not change the fact that there are decent, responsible people who do not get corrupted by power, no matter how much time elapses or how much power they have. I've known such people. And no, the power has not been taken away from them before the "event" happened. And I did not really observe anything overly "altruistic" about them either.
(I'm assuming you meant to say "for some it may not be" because otherwise that little bit makes no sense)
No, it makes perfect sense.
This was not an issue for me. I took into account the fact that unless I am exceedingly busy, and not on holiday somewhere (as I will be for the first two weeks of September), then I will visit the forums at least once a day, if only as a quick skim-through. This serves two primary functions: it keeps me up-to-date with threads and forum happenings, and it reduces the workload into much smaller chunks. This was not a change for me, since I have several sites that I visit daily for brief amounts of time to check for updates, and it has become part of my routine, so incorporating a little modding duty into that is no biggie.
Fajie, sweetheart, why do you feel the need to justify yourelf? Why is it that when we discuss the types of people who are not fit for the position of a mod and the possible barriors that people may have in being a good mod in a purely hypothetical way, you suddenly jump up and scream, "But
I'm not like that!
I don't have those problems!" Did anyone here in this thread accuse you of being cruel or bossy towards others for the sake of excersising your "power" muscle? Or of not being here often enough to monitor your share of posts? Do you have some sort of insecurity that makes you assume that the remarks made were ment to criticise you?
You know how a lot of peole here like to repeat (in regards to metaphysical arts, magick most often) something to the effect of "You must have power over yourself before you can have power over your surroundings". And although it gets a little annoying to hear the same thing repeated over and over, it does not make it less true. So please consider the following carefully:
Before attempting to psycho-analyse others, try doing the same to yourself. Analyse your own actions and ask yourself, "What does this say about me as a person? Do I have problems and insecurities that I might want to fix, or is everything in the world somebody else's fault?"
Good luck, Faijer.
I'll be praying for you.
