When did the mods say they don't care what we think. They have stated they don't agree with some of your opinions and they feel this is the best way to do things. Not agreeing =/= Not caring about our opinions.

Or they won't back down and half the community will leave instead of one person. You're all upset that Jizz might leave and then threaten to leave as well, you're not really solving anything by doing this.

Your view of how this website (and for the matter, most internet forums) works is the only thing that's a bit backwards.

This site exists because ioi wanted to create website about global video game sales data. gamrConnect (and therefore the community) is a branch of VGChartz. In no way, shape, or form did this site first come to be because of the "community". I'm not saying that to put down the community here, as it's why I chose to be part of the VGChartz family, and why I am a moderator for it. But those are the facts.

ioi made the site, and we answer to ioi.

A dictatorship is described as the following:

1. government by a dictator.

    
2. a country governed by a dictator.
3. absolute authority in any sphere.

Since ioi created this site, he has absolute authority of this site. A dictator, if you will.

Evilore from NeoGAF has absolute authority of his site. A dictator.

IGN Staff have absolute authority over the IGN boards. Dictators.

I can go on.

For you to say that "Dictatorship in any and all forms are bad" is a bit naive, especially if you're part of an internet community overseen by a parent website. And your never ending tirade is getting tiring too.

The amount of reaching you're making is quite honestly absurd. In some great awkward leap to conclusions, you've made some completely unfounded and deluded (as in, a misleading belief. I'm choosing my words here) judgment call about the entire team and our purpose for being here. We are here because of the community. We are here to support the community. There are many ways to be involved in the community, and being a Moderator is one of them. So stop spouting (as in, expressing one's views or ideas in a lengthy, declamatory, and unreflecting way) your unfounded and plainly wrong words. It's really getting you nowhere.

For some advice, there are multiple sites out there which allow you to create your own forum, free of those dictators that you're worried about. It's a great place to start up a community of your own (Once upon a time I was part of one between NSider [in which Nintendo were the dictators] and here.). Since you say you won't be here soon, I wish you the best.

I believe this was a suggestion from earlier in the thread, and whilst it works in principle I don't think it's the best solution to the problem.

As an aside, I agree with Moreno and green_sky. We might disagree but this doesn't seem to be arriving at a conclusion. 

So, can't somebody just contact ioi and ask his opinion on it? Then it will be settled once and for all.

I think it's best not to since I have a feeling he'll be against Wizz keeping his original name ...

Please Ignore, I had things mixed up

This is already one very very small community. Sometimes going down to only a couple of members online. If halt the community leaves this will be an almost inactive forum and then the mods will have to leave Jizz with his original name.
