Good. You can extend that courtesy to everyone else while you're at it.

No one should just arbitrarily or unquestioningly accept or trust authority simply because they have authority.


This is some advice for life right here. The world could use so much more of this.

I agree with Deitric. I don't really understand the point of anonymous judges.

You should stand by your decisions. When a participant thinks you make a bad decision, they should be able to explain to you why they thought you made a bad decision.

When you do dumb s**t, you should be held accountable.

A lot of the times, as Vintrict has helped us to illustrate, when people do things that a large group of typically reasonable individuals think is bullshit then they ought to be questioned about it. Then they should engage in civil and reasonable discussion about why they made those decisions.

If the common consensus eventually concludes that the person did something wrong, then they ought to rethink what they have done and stop.

Incorrect analogy, parents have a monopoly of force and control.

For what it's worth, Sok, I think you do a good job as a judge.

I almost wrote "jog", then I realized that was wrong and that I need a beer.

Seriously though. Having your authority questioned incessantly is... horrible.

It's like,
"waaah why can't I walk around in the middle of the road???"
"Because---"
"you don't know anything wheeeeeeeeeeeeee!"

Because, you know, I totally make a habit of declaring myself utterly superior to everyone at every opportunity.

It's very simple.

You give me attitude, I give it right back. Otherwise, we're cool. Knowing about changes in the judge lineup is something that should be announced, not buried somewhere in the OOC thread. I'm not asking to be on the tribunal, just that changes be transparent, along the vein of what Deitric's been on about.

Anything else is just for hyperbole or comedy. I make it clear when I'm being serious.

I never really had an issue where I felt the need to question my mothers authority.

I was a well behaved child in part because my mothers decisions in regards to raising me made perfect sense.

However, not all parents are made equal. They are human and therefore can make mistakes.

Not that every child has the mental capacity to bring these things into question. So I do understand your point KB. You are right. What Deitric said doesn't count for children.

but when it comes to people who have mentally matured, late-teens to adults...I think Dei is right. You shouldn't blindly follow anything.
