Title: Petition to remove longweekend as moderator Post by skippy. on Nov 2nd, 2011 at 3:26pm
I put forward a petition which I will forward to freediver to have lonweekend removed as a mod on this forum.
I am over his lies and manipulation and now it is the last staw after he has threatened to ban me and called me a liar after I mentioned in a thread Piers Akerman was a sexual assaulter. Here is my evidence I am not lying. Akerman has had charges of sexual harassment levelled against him by employees. Five former employees, three of whom agreed to be named, said they witnessed Mr Akerman sexually harass female members of his staff.[2][3] A group of female staff at The Sunday Herald met and agreed to protect each other in the office from Akerman's advances.[2][3] [edit] AssaultOne of the most controversial episodes in Akerman's life was his alleged threat to assault the literary editor of The Advertiser, Shirley Stott Despoja.[2][3] The dispute ended before a full bench of the Supreme Court where the newspaper appealed against Stott Despoja's successful worker's compensation claim for stress-related sickleave pay. Stott Despoja alleged: "I was physically threatened by the editor while alone with him in an office in a dispute over my work." The appeal by The Advertiser was dismissed and Stott Despoja won her $4000 claim.[2][3] I vote yes to remove longweekend. |

Why did the advertiser lose its appeal and why did the supreme court award her damages? |
Title: Re: Petition to remove longweekend as moderator Post by skippy. on Nov 2nd, 2011 at 4:06pm
This has less to do with the case and much more to do with longwhine trying to silence left wing opinion,even when the facts are provided, this is all over the net, there is no way Akerman could take action.

I don't, actually... I don't even read his columns.... But making an accusation like that is nearly as bad as Derryn Hinch's thing about naming child molesters before it's been proven in court (which is illegal btw) and on about the same level as what you complain that Friyay does, which I also don't support.... |
Title: Re: Petition to remove longweekend as moderator Post by Annie Anthrax on Nov 2nd, 2011 at 4:44pm
If we're voting, I vote no too (sorry, Skip).
I think the modding position is important to Longy and I wouldn't like to see him lose it, even if he is a crotchety old smelly sock. |

It takes a while for a global moderator to find the middle road and L/W hasn't been doing the job that long, but he certainly needs to stop calling members' names. If he wants the standard of posting in this place to improve - he needs to lead by example. A global moderator should practise what he preaches - or at least try to. |
Title: Re: Petition to remove longweekend as moderator Post by Annie Anthrax on Nov 2nd, 2011 at 5:11pm
Yes, Mantra, I completely agree.
Hopefully he'll pull his head in. |
Title: Re: Petition to remove longweekend as moderator Post by Equitist on Nov 2nd, 2011 at 5:17pm Sorry, Skipp but I also do not seek Longy's removal as a Mod. As you know, I have had cause to request that he back-off and demonstrate more fairness and consistency - sans personal abuse. However, should he not make a better effort to moderate his moderation style, then I might return to change my position. Oh, and I don't want Skipp, or any other genuine political animals, to be driven off here eitherer! |

Longweekend should be banned for giving irresponsible financial advice to people.

I see FD sees fit to bury his mistake of making longwhine a mod in an aussie run forum . ::)
He did the same with the POL animal link, I would have thought that was feedback, I suppose he doesn't like looking at his mistakes. |

But Longweekend pretends to be a successful person in financial terms & offers free financial advice to people on this forum with no disclaimers. He is so irresponsible. He told people to buy houses 18 months ago & continued up till this day while the whole time, property was going down & still is. Longweekend is a loser & he gives losing advice. I say sack him. |
