Oh my god anon you are so dense it's not even funny.
I. Am. Not. Talking. About. Only. Phase.
Phase is a shitty person and I am not defending her. What I care about is if the mods are listening to anon complaints, of if it's players currently in the game who are complaining.
Because it's not always as clear-cut as "she literally said homphobic shit". It's not always a clear-cut as "he molested his siblings." It's not always as clear-cut as "she sympathizes with the Boston bomber and woobified him and made an OC of him." Sometimes, it's not clear if someone is in the wrong or if they have a grudgewanker trying to make them miserable.
And because it's not always clear-cut, we have to have an established set of societal rules that we follow EVERY. TIME. Because that is the only thing that ensures fairness in this hobby, which is turn is why we trust mods to run games in the first place. We understand that they will follow these agreed-upon rules and not do shit for arbitrary reasons, and that is what allows games to thrive. Have you seen all the games where mods don't apply rules evenly across the board and they drop into a wank-flood because of it? That's why we need these rules in the first place.
One of those rules happens to be that the word of a person within the game trumps the word of a person not within a game. This rule is supposed to protect the cases where someone has a grudgewanker who is always stirring up trouble with them, so that they're not unfairly booted because their grudgewanker is using "but I miiiiight app but this person makes me so ~uncomfortable~" to get to them. Sometimes, that means we end up with cases like this, where an actually shitty person would fall under that same rule. But we need to stick to that rule every time it comes up, even in cases like this.
And like I've said fifty-million times, none of this applies if it's actual players in the game who complained and got Phase kicked out. From the start I have said it's a bad idea for ANONS ALONE to be able to get someone kicked out of a game they were already accepted to. Players complaining is an entirely different thing.
