You take him way too seriously. As I said, occasional disagreement is a small price to pay for finding new, creative approaches to things. Do you honestly think I would make him a moderator for the purpose of aggravating Zelaron members? I had realized conflict to be a likely consequence of the unconventional methods he employs, but as I previously said, we need someone from the outside who can give us new perspective.

He is taken seriously because it is not obvious that he is joking, and nobody knows him well enough to know he's joking. It doesn't seem like he's joking, and a lot of times I don't think he is.
It would be in his best interest, as a new member and a newly appointed Supreme Moderator, to be a bit friendlier and seem like less of a Nazi. He doesn't seem to agree with considering what other people think. He also seems to have some sort of superiority complex, which I can only attribute to the fact that he knows you. It almost seems like he feels he can boss me around because he knows that you'll support him (in his own world, anyway.)
Look at the poll. 10 to 2. I'm guessing the 2 are you and him, and the 10 is everyone else. Even if you think he could be helpful to Zelaron, he's not making himself liked very much. I explained to him in our conversation on MSN that as a new guy he needed to lay low because he doesn't understand how people will react to him. Unfortunately, he didn't heed my warning, and now nobody wants him here.
Either way, if he keeps up his shit, I'm going to keep up mine. I'm not going to tolerate some new guy trying to take over, even if he knows you. If it has to come down to it, you can demod/ban me if you have to, but I'm not going to submit to him, and I have no problem with openly displaying my dissatisfaction with him if he gives me a reason to do so. He's bringing this all upon himself by acting the way that he is.
