Well, this seems to be a pretty one-sided thread, so I'm going to cut through this largely outrage-based posting. Yeah, I guess I'm being outrageous myself. But seriously, let's all get over ourselves for a second and consider some things.

1. What are you going to do about this? There's been a serious trend concerning ambiguity over posting obscene material here at EoFF, and this isn't the first time something like this has happened. Resigning from being a CK or Admin is a good way to express yourself, but I'm not sure if it really amounts to much more. I've been around over four years and this doesn't feel any different from the usual drama and hocus-pocus surrounding events that happen here. I have some solutions that have come off the top of my head here, and am listing them here for discussion.
a. Porn forum that is locked unless your birthday is valid.
b. Relax the rules to implement a warning system for porn.
c. Continue being in/consistent in implementation of rules.

2. Outrage: The only outrage I really see is from the staff. Which makes a lot of frickin' sense to me, because Kishi was reinstated not only as a member, but as a moderator. Most of the posts from regulars here amount to no more than "Yeah, he broke the no porn rule, but I didn't see it anyways, so whatever," or of course "Where's Peter?" Point is, people are going to see some CKs and Admin's resigning, say "Hey, way to stand up", express some distaste, but aren't going to do anything themselves. Maybe they'll say "I hate this place" and stop posting for a day or two, or maybe that'll be all they post. I'm not a mind reader, but I feel that aside from random "Unban Peter" or "Ban Kishi" statements in sigs, it's not going to amount to much more. There are two options I see here, neither of which seem appetizing:
a. Inflate the outrage until a large majority of the boards vote to ban Kishi.
b. Treat it as similar cases have been treated in the past - it never happened.
Ideally, this issue won't simply be washed over and some announcement will be made in General Chat addressing the issue. Naturally, it's tough to decide on a stance, but not dealing with it, or running away (as I interpret resignation from power), will only ensure the eventuality of another circus happening in the future. If the people in power aren't willing to face the issue, why are they in power? Aren't they the leaders and overall identity of the boards? I feel no qualms in defining the essence of the board to be who is on staff. I would hope the staff confronts this issue, comes clean with what exactly did and did not happen, and resolves this issue or resolves their policies such that there is no further inconsistency.

3. Cut the "I like Kishi" crap. Knowing him, I'm sure he doesn't want to hear how much people adore him and then bitch about what just happened. I'm not condemning expressing feelings about the situation, but I am condemning expression of said feelings interfering with just and clear-minded decision making. Whether that leads the people in power to banning him, removing him from moderation, presenting the situation to the entire board, sweeping the situation under the rug, or whatever else the people in power decide to do, let it be so.

I believe in an oligarchy, but leaders in an oligarchy don't quit.

I appreciate this thread being reopened for discussion.
