First, I mean this in NO WAY as an attack on any former or current mods here. With that aside..
What is it with some forum moderstors who stop being moderators become total jackasses to forum management?
The forum I am a moderator on has a fairly high turnover rate (being a mod for over a year and a half is a long time there). IN my time we've lost one admin and 3 moderators. The admin and one moderator were cool about it (mutual) but one of the mods became the biggest crybaby when he was no longer a mod. "You closed my thread because you're singling me out!" No, you broke the rules.
Now, we have one who is reporting everything under the sun, even if it isn't breaking the rules and non-stop complaining at how things are run. He's also teaming up with 2 or 3 others (from before my time) to say how they did a much better job and has taken it upon themselves to make the remaining mod's jobs as difficult as possible. Reporting everything and if we don't do something about it within a few minutes they re-report it "Oh, I guess it's Ok to just break the rules then!" and then they start doing what they know is against the rules.
One is even complaining why we won't tell them that a member was temp banned. Um, it's none of your business!!
I've also seen it on another forum that I've been a very long term member of.
I don't think this forum has had this issue but has anyone seen this on others?
