Acting on Emotions

[Nebulous]

As an admin do you act /make decisions based on your emotions or do you try to put your emotions aside to handle situations?

 

[Nathan]

I put my emotion aside, there's nothing worse then acting on pure hate, or love.

 

[Bossanova]

No, I don't let my emotions take control when it comes to making Forum-related decisions.

 

[Nebulous]

I put my emotion aside, there's nothing worse then acting on pure hate, or love.

Indeed. Because that can severely cloud your judgment.

 

[Dylan]

I put my emotions aside too.

 

[WasteD]

I do not let my emotions get to me.. I carefully analyze the situation before I make decisions.

 

[Fergal]

I try to act professionally and act without being unduly influenced by my emotions. However, saying that I wouldn't put so much time and effort into my forums, if I wasn't so emotionally attached to them and our members.

 

[Shiny Star]

I put my emotion aside, there's nothing worse then acting on pure hate, or love.

Ditto!

 

[Brack]

If it ever happens then leave these situations aside for a day or two then decide what to do.

 

[DarkRaven]

I try to think things over a few times and analyse why exactly I am making a decision to, for example, warn someone a few times before doing it. It helps.

 

[Acorn]

I ALWAYS put my emotions aside. And just for safety I discuss anything iffy in the staffroom to hear what the others think before I go out on the floor to deliver any kind of ruling or whatnot.
