Topic: Why do I have an "unapprove" link on approved posts?

Posted under General

Basically, thread title.

E: Confirmed that it does nothing; curious if this is a me curiosity or a glitch in the system. Guess I should have bug reported this.

Me too :/ Isn't that option mods only?

Edit: Not only that, also on other people's approved posts too

With an attitude like that, how the hell did you get Privileged status?

...Oh, wait, same reason people like ippiki are admin.

"Ahhem", you should probably stop goading the others. And that goes for you too, Maria, Steelswarm.

So you mean that e621 is just as bad as FA, where friends of the site owners and mods get admin status no matter how much they abuse their position or how much they grate against other users of the site, and people who actually TRY to improve the site are ignored or banned?

Somehow I doubt that it's THAT bad, but there's a helluva lot e621 could do to improve themselves; there are one or two mods I won't name whom I think aren't doing a very good job, but most of the issues are with site functionality and regular users, which I guess isn't as bad as it could be.

My gripe is mainly the weird, inexplicable hatred the folks on here have for anything muscular or hyper-endowed. Just look at all the HATE Gideon gets...

Sometimes users are given privileged status without earning it, these users are usually quickly found out by the rest of the mod team, and their privileges revoked. This status is earned, not given. Privileged status is given out after a discussion by the entire mod team, and not just handed out by one mod in particular.

It's not so much a true hatred for Gideons work, as people like to make fun of him for his extreme love of mammoth -mammaries and tube-cock.

It's not goading; it's friendly chiding for the sake of conformity!
