The question was more, who moderates a moderator that makes himself a subject to moderation.
As Dann pointed out, there is more than one moderator.
You don't have to beat around the bush: just openly state that you think thread hijacking
That's a subjective viewpoint. Exaggerated wildly. And very likely based on both personal animosity and post-facto self justification.
Whatever, it's not worth to argue with you over it.
and publicly quarreling with the moderator in violation of the charter
I politely asked, prefacing my ask with the word 'kindly' and end the request with the word 'thanks', that you altered the appearance of the thread such that it did not misattribute my name to the thread title, which I didn't write, but says I did.
It was a fairly trivial and entirely reasonable request which could have been fairly trivially dealt with the moderator tools. End of. I made zero personal comment about you, nor criticism, it was just a straight factual, formally toned, request to correct a misattribution.
Your response was an immediate sarcastic, personal attack comment coupled with a refusal.
"hijacking" ... "wildly off-topic" ..... "a moderator is something else than your private secretary" .... "your behavior"
is perfectly normal behavior, and that it is indecent to criticize it. Then people know where you stand.
Then you escalate later to:
"Decent people would apologize" .... "anarchistic trouble-maker would attack the moderator for cleaning up his mess"
The person out of control here is you, Mr Muller.
This page is supposed to be for general computer chess (including criticism of Chessmaster brand btw), not for a Moderator to carry out his personal grudges on a member with rude and intemperate language.
I repeat that my original reasoned, polite request simply to correct the original misattribution. Could have been trivially dealt with there and then. All that followed is bad behaviour, and personal abuse, initiated by you, and performed by you.
Again, don't bother to reply.
