1. With all respect tazzy, you've already answered yourself. IF CM can wipe out something for price lists, it could damn well, suspend profiles for suggesting or welcoming any tribute or such. The denominations of compensation are irrelevant. As you have claimed prior in this thread, administrators have boatloads of authority. Its not a question of administrative authority, but a question of administrative will.
And then they make a new one. Your point?

2. Yet there's a deeper, more complex response. If I'm not mistaken, Hill has been knocking himself out trying to get it across. When CM does not police its own written standards, as you have just said --- then SOMETIMES it leads members to shame violators directly. When this happens, Hill says (& I've seen it too) mods take the side of the shamed TOS violator, instead of taking the side of those doing the policing. Mods then go out of their way to curb those doing the shaming, by ratcheting up their perceived concern for Civility. When those doing the shaming are too clever to be uncivil, the mods resort to a charge of Drawing Negative Attention to the recipient. This mod sophistry is completely egregious.
And often such posts go unreported. Many have indicated they dont bother to report, which then brings the Admins in.

3. For mods to accomplish this, not only must they switch away from the side of justice regarding CMs own TOS. They further find it necessary to, as Hill says, make up loose unwritten rules, to trump the higher written ones they are not enforcing. The one I have listed above is a CLASSIC example of a mod-made, gold-delivered, unwritten rule: Thou shalt not Draw Negative Attention to a member. Wow! Holly shit! Hellllo God!
And I posted in TOS exactly where that specific rule is written
quote:
4. Doesn't matter whether there's some vague limitless authority granted to administrators in some myriad text, because it's still incumbent on mods NOT to exercise that authority arbitrarily or capriciously or unjustly or in a spirit actually against the TOS themselves. This is one of the principles we've been handed down from the Magna Carta. Powers are held accountable to their own written rules. (Also believe embodied in the US Federal Code Article 78 CPLR.)
Attacking other members is not a capricious rule. Again, the TOS against this was posted. I have seen it used pretty consistently. Always? no. But usually if an attack is made, the post goes bye bye... IF its reported.
