I don't want to sound like 'oh look, a fellow mod teaming up on you,' but seriously... your whole post was in anger that Malatesta didn't credit the author, when it is CRYSTAL CLEAR that he did in the very first sentence of the post YOU QUOTED. No essay you write is going to hide that.

I've never seen a new member act like a 'threat' before, and thinks its pretty sad that you would think that. Not sure what your intentions are but new members always bring new ideas, new outlooks, and eventually new methods of moderating when they earn that spot too. Your attitude, however, isn't really portraying any of these qualities, so I suggest lightening up, enjoying your stay, making sure you post accurate information next time, and just sit back and relax a bit. We're all one big happy family, go look at some threads in the off-topic section to get a better idea of what we do here and where you are. Because your assumptions of this place are certainly wrong.
