finally something i can agree with

During the past days MRC and GuyveR800 have mailed about the conflict that recently arose and found its way to the MSX mailinglist, newsgroup and MRC fora. First of all: we are sorry that circumstances and miscommunication have lead to things getting public. It should not have happened.

As stated in the initial post of this thread, GuyveR800 was banned for a week from the MRC, after flaming a moderator who had just moderated one of GuyveR800's reactions to a newspost. However, the reason for that moderation was part of a sudden and temporary policy change, related to an internal discussion between MRC admins about whether or not to apply stricter moderation rules.

Because all the events that had just happened, because of the content of the join our team form and because of reasonable assumptions, the 'join our team'-form sent by GuyveR800 during his ban was treated differently than any other 'join our team'-form, namely as an application for an admin instead as an application for a moderator. The MRC team will try and prevent similar things from happening in the future.

The entire MRC team and GuyveR800 would like to apologize for allowing this situation to arise and not being able to solve this problem in a satisfying way internally. With this post, both GuyveR800 and MRC consider this situation as a 'case closed'. Now, lets all focus on MSX again!

And that's how it should be. I'm glad you solved it this way.

We stay focussed

in the end, it's just like any detective-novel: 'the butler did it'

congratulations guyveR800!!!

A certain American president I won't name could learn a great deal from this kinda conflict solving
