User blog comment:Nduke/Ideas to Promote the Wiki/@comment-5915880-20121114014328/@comment-1874924-20121114064433

To make matters worse, I've had chatmods tell me that they're actually afraid to enforce the rules because they're afraid that Reddy or Toad will demote them for doing so. Not surprising, considering that Reddy has been known to promote and demote chatmods for fun.

The people who swear regularly on chat know or should now by now that it tends to drive more refined people away; so if they continue to insist on their "right" to use such language, then it's logical to assume that they're actually TRYING to drive people away. These people don't appear to care if their conduct spoils the wiki experience for the rest of us, as long as they get to do whatever they want.
