moderating a game is a huge amount of effort which requires someone to give up a ton of their personal time purely for the enjoyment of the rest of the forum.
if someone violates a serious rule that clearly requires strong repercussions then i agree that actions likely have to be taken, but in a circumstance where the violation is boarderline grounds for a ban (which i think an unspoken agreed upon rule of the pub as opposed to a set rule of 2p2 fits that criteria) the fact that that person in modding a giant game should be something taken into account
after all a mods purpose is to make the forums a better place and a more enjoyable place for everyone else, if the modding decision will cause more harm than good than its probably a bad decision
to say that the fact that hes running a giant game shouldnt make a ****ing difference just shows you dont understand pog or appreciate what it takes to run a game like that
in the end it seems elliot allowed him to continue modding the game using a diff account so the point is moot but i 100% feel that someone contribution to the enjoyment of the forum should be taken into account when the commit a minor "violation"
