    Disabling your inbox protects your safety how?

    Also FindMe was after everyone. Remember as the mod you have the upper hand. So punish those who harass, but do your job.

    Hey, I can't explain how the mind works. I just know I feel safer that way.

    Oh yes and that is how all of the things happened above. Because I did my job and punished those harassing me. Are you claiming I don't do my job just because my inbox isn't open temporarily and I am actually on break with an inactivity notice? Well that isn't nice. I suppose you don't really play all that much to see that even though I am on break I do my job in every way.
    I think you disagreed but you didn't actually read the post.

    Then why are you a mod? If a minecraft forums is messing up your wellbeing, why not resign until you feel you can play again? You can't decide when you'll help players and when you won't. Not how it works.

    He does make a good point, since you have mod past im sure they would reapply you if you feel this way

    Locking profiles is fair enough, but inbox is just absurd.

    I've looked through this thread and seen a continual trend of 'privacy' 'emotions' and 'rights' that kind of stuff.

    Privacy-
    How is not having access to locking your inbox an invasion of privacy in any way? No one but the higher staff and yourself can see them anyway. It's completely pointless. No one can use the excuse of privacy to lock their inbox and expect people to not think, 'tf???'

    Emotions-
    Yeah, sure. Fair enough. Though, most (note I used the word 'most' not 'all') mods have no problem with banning people whom harass them/others in a publicly viewed section. Nor do they have a problem with calling them out about the original person calling them out. It works both ways dudes. Someone harassing you? Ban them, mute them, give them warning points. Don't limit the general community's access to people whom are supposed to serve them (don't mean it in like a servant way, don't take it like that) when they need help just because you have a problem with a small group of people.

    Rights-
    No one is taking away your rights. Even so, like I said before, they're harassing you? Punish them. We, the ones without the ability to do that, have a complete reason to lock our inboxes, for we cannot punish nor are our services towards the community required. Yes, 'tell a mod' if you're being harassed, but answer me this, how is one supposed to do so if their inboxes are locked?

    Point made. I also suggest, Dew, that you take out the fact that they should only be allowed to lock one or the other, and change it with being unable to lock their inboxes solely.

    This is a pointless argument of a suggestion that will never be accepted.

    This is about Krissy. Not the staff team. No one else on the staff team have both their conversations and profiles locked.

    Dew I've stated this but you don't seem to care. If you have an issue with what Krissy is doing, by all means message Cyp about it. I know he gets your messages and that your guys talk. He is fair and listens to everyone weather he agrees or not. Just message him about what Krissy is doing and ask him about his feelings on the matter.

    I mean when was the last suggestion thread on moderator privileges ever accepted by Cyp here? Never.

    Lmao you have no clue. You say you know both sides when quite clearly you don't, if you did, you would have said your piece and gone away.

    This thread is in 'Suggestions' for a reason. It's not about Krissy specifically. Krissy was merely used as an example, which is completely justifiable, though not ideal.

    Dew doesn't have to care, it's her suggestion, not yours. Her point of view is just as justifiable as yours, you need to acknowledge that. If every suggestion went to Cyp, no one would get anywhere. This is just like every other suggestion, whether Dew has contact with Cyp or not has nothing to do with it. If it was specifically about Krissy, it would go to Cyp, or maybe even as far as a report.

    Just because it hasn't happened in the past, doesn't mean it won't. This suggestion is fair. Every argument you make about it not being, can easily be contradicted. Don't be so narrow-minded.

    This thread is something like a fight between Moderators and Normal Players. I am not going to take sides. Being neutral, There is no rule where it shows Moderators aren't allow to lock their profiles whatsoever, they have all the right to do that. On the other side tho, they are staff and have to be open to players and help them not just ignoring them by locking their profiles.

    Dude, you would struggle to pour water out of a boot with the instructions on the heel (yes I know I stole that, sue me.)
    There is no rule, that's why there is a suggestion for it. To make it a rule. Additionally, it's kind of been reiterated that the main subject is locking inboxes, not profiles. Profiles are completely justifiable whereas inboxes are not.

    I ran this past Cyp and he said it was ok for me to lock my inbox and profile temporarily.
    In other words he is ok with staff having this permission.

    He did show concern at players not being able to contact me but I let him know it would be for less than a week and he was fine with it.

    I am not unreachable.

    Unless you ignored me or something, your profile has been locked way longer than a week.
