Giggle, while your intentions might be good natured when you call Winter, Winnie the Pooh, that doesn't automatically make it okay to call him that. He doesn't like the nickname and even if you think the name is a compliment then you should be respectful of his request to not call him that. Everybody has things they don't want to be called even if nothing is meant by it. The thing is that after you have been asked to stop calling someone something, it's important you respect that. It's not a big deal to stop calling Winter, Winnie the Pooh. In fact calling him a shorter name takes less effort. In the long wrong it's disrespectful to call someone by a name that they don't want to be called, especially when they have to ask you many times to stop calling them by that name. Winter did ask you nicely the whole time if you could not call him that, and it doesn't matter if you didn't mean it in a bad way, he doesn't like it and you shouldn't call him that. Winter wasn't abusing his power, he was asserting his status in a way that was more than appropriate. Winter didn't kick you because you called him by Winnie the Pooh, he kicked you because you were rude and disrespectful. You say you're trying to be his friend but friends don't say "LIES" or attack them because they think the other is abusive.

Winter wouldn't have been made a mod and would not still be a mod if he was abusive of his powers. You said that everybody has to be respectful to everybody's opinion and your right. But that also means you have to be respectful to mods and their decisions, even if you don't like it. If you have a problem with a mod then you should talk to an admin about it and do it nicely. It's useless to keep arguing and stay angry, it will get you nowhere. Keeping grudges doesn't earn you any fans. Before you make judgements you should try and look from another point of view. Don't always assume what you think is best and learn to hear others before you shut them out and follow only what you believe is right.
