Let's get one thing straight. This guy SUCKS as a moderator. From thsi one screenshot alone, you can see a few reasons why. First, he has apparently broken the rules established on his own board. Right away, that tells you that this guy has no real respect for the rules in the first place. (Hint: That's bad, when a moderator doesn't have any respect for the rules.) Second, he's using insulting language (put a sock in it!) and accusing people of being trolls -- all while openly licking his own wounds. This is the epitome of a childish personality lashing out at the world while having ZERO empathy for the damage that they're causing. Guess what? That's bad moderation, too. Don't get me wrong -- I'm not saying that Patakas is a bad person, not by a long shot. Patakas has done a lot of good for the gotmobile forums AS A POSTER. But AS A MOD, he sucks. This isn't an insult, any more than it would be an insult to tell me I'm a crappy blogger. That's a fact, not an attack -- and it's a fact that Patakas is NOT A GOOD MODERATOR.
