Why do mods are easier on others than some ???
Here is my thing, why are some "mods" easier on others than some other members here??? It should be the same or everyone. Who do we report these mods that shouldn't be mods to ??? One easy example is on the for sale section. I didn't follow one rule and right away my thread was deleted and I received an infraction. I've also seen this.... " oh since you've been a member since 20xx I'll give you a chance to update your thread with pics of username etc etc... I mean that is CRAP. But in my case it's straight delete no warning and infraction. Please respond "Mods",

We don't share history, but allow me to call BS. You personally received a warning prior to any infractions. The rules are at the top of every page in our marketplace. It is standard practice to delete the thread and hand out a friendly warning to document it was addressed. If exceptions are made, it is done on a case by case basis, and longstanding members who may not have noticed a change could easily think they already know how to post so they don't read the rules. 99.9% of the situations are handled exactly how I stated above, though.

You can call BS all you want but the truth is that I never received a friendly warning just a hey you received an infraction and you post has been deleted. I can point you a thread right now that does have a friendly warning like I think it should be to help your call on BS.

I hold everyone to the letter, almost to a fault sometimes but that's what Bob had requested when I volunteered to start moderating here on EvoM.
After some internal dialog, we had decided to let the rules 'bend' for all intents and purposes when someone is selling a car instead of flat out nuking the thread. This is mostly due to the fact that when people are taking pictures of their car, it's quite often for other sites and not just EvoM. Thus it follows that the odds of someone remembering to take a picture of their car with a sign next to it with their username and the date is highly unlikely.
We post a warning in the thread and give them a day or two to get the thread updated before we trash the thread and then issue a warning/infraction depending if it's a first offense or not.

You can't take it personally-cuz they don't give them personally.
I mod a big forum too (not car stuff), and dude, It's not personal. There's like 15-20 mods, we communicate best we can teh basics in our subforum and guidlines, and from there, it's just punching the clock. It's too hectic to even TRY and make it personal against you.
I didn't give points out for a long time cuz I didn't even know how to do it
All the same man, srsly.

I agree with this completely I made a complaint about a mod on here and every time I do my thread gets deleted haha.. You can throw infractions and do whatever you guys feel but I can't even make a thread without it getting deleted.
So call bs whatever you guys want. You guys use your power the wrong ways sometimes and I'm not saying all of you so don't all come attacking me please

You are not being singled out and the concern voicing your opinion will result in some sort of retaliatory action is ludicrous. Simply follow the rules and you'll be fine. Thanks.
