For better or worse, like it or not, people see you as a Mod first, and member second. You can write whatever you want, but this is how all of your posts are going to be viewed. So, when the members are clamouring for answers, and the only crumbs that you're throwing out to them, are your drippy bits of sarcasm, and mystic codes, yes, it doesn't look good on you. It looks overly defensive, and it looks difficult. Again, as a member, it'd probably go unnoticed, but as a Mod, unfortunately, you're just examined differently. Personally, I just felt that your continuous sarcastic sprinklings, were droplets of gasoline on a fire, that made both you, and the Mods, by association, look bad.
I DO get it. I know that there are tons of things going on behind the scenes. I know that there are times when you want to scream out what ACTUALLY happened, when people are speculating, and drawing their own conclusions. I know that being a Mod is generally thankless. You either have to find a way to deal with it, or quit it, and I'm NOT suggesting either over the other. I do have to say, that while I've given Mods grief, I've also given them praise, and I try to be fair and thoughtful with both, according to the situation, moderate, if you will. On this occasion, I just felt that your comments weren't helping an already volatile situation, on a site that has been in worsening chaos for a while now. In the end, however, you're right. You can write anything you want.
