Sanfran is right, even Mods get modded. LOL
The best advice is to learn not to take it personally. The Mods try their best to be fair. It's not a easy job, but they do their best. Sometimes it may seem to some that they have their favorites but really they don't, because I know first hand we are all their favorites. They love us all, and can't wait until BB5 so we can do it all over again.

OK, now that everybody is being so honest and revealing, I'd like to ask a question (not making ANY ACCUSATIONS).

Is there ever a time where there has been a thread that didn't show a hg in a particularly good light and posters who like that hg go into that thread with a purpose of causing mayhem and getting the thread pulled????

Not asking for anybody to fess up. Just seems like that's what's been happening.

<And if I get jumped on, I swear I'm going to start posting household tips in this thread> :)

Wendo, don't encourage GAL by praising her slavish ode to model posting. She takes every opportunity she gets to butter up the Mods. Her tongue has been down the back of their trousers so much, it's got underwear tags all over it.

And for the record, I've been modded too. ::imagine that:: hehehe

I didn't like it 2 times and once I deserved it...LOL...for posting a naughty pic. :)

But such is life. I got over it and now understand it better.

Finished with my story.

Steveh, how about posting those absurdities in the 10,001 things to do thread. I'd be interested in reading them. But I will tell you, I think they have more interesting things to do than read the email ads I receive which can add 6 inches to my non-existent member.

Hey, I flirted with getting modded last night, Bastable. They just liked me picking on you more than they wanted to mod me. As it SHOULD be.

ps gotsha, MsSquared.

Monalisahi - As I said, I don't think they ARE doing personal email monitoring or chat room or message board stuff--unless there is a specific tip involved--but they COULD. Any time they wanted. If you (or others) don't believe me, READ The Patriot Act. I'm not saying you (or anyone else) haven't but many people have not yet they talk about it like they have.

You can find absurdities, abuses, atrocities, re. the PA by Googling it. One of my favorites is the guy in Colorado (WHITE guy LOL) who took a picture of the hotel Cheney was staying in (the photographer didn't know it) and was immediately arrested, questioned and detained. This story is one of hundreds if not thousands.

Mona, I've felt like people were doing that sometimes! I hate when a good thread gets pulled because of a few jerks.

(I hope you didn't give more people the idea. )

I keep skimming through this thread and I started wondering what exactly are the rules for posting, so I looked them up. Just in case anyone else wondering what they are too, I'm posting them below.


This is a mature, moderated board and is here for you to enjoy. Use of the board is a privilege, not a right. Messages with EXCESSIVE foul language, vengefulness, hatred and/or slanderous comments will not be tolerated. Occassionally there are exceptions.

Respect and tolerance for each other is our code.

Several types of posts may be deleted. Moderators have the final say regarding what gets deleted, but will use the following guidelines:

* Messages which are offensive, racist, profane or libelous may be deleted or edited.

* Personal attacks against other posters will be deleted. Any post which is insulting, threatening or cruel to other posters will not be tolerated and will be deleted in its entirety.

* Personal attacks against celebrities, their families, etc. may be deleted. This board is not intended as a place to slam or rip apart people. Discuss, debate and share your opinion maturely, but leave the meanness at home.

* Whining / complaining about the moderation on the board may be deleted, and will not be tolerated.

* Small, one-word or no-text messages may be deleted.

* Inactive topics (topics with no new posts) may be deleted after about 1 week of inactivity, sometimes sooner depending on number of posts and traffic to the board.

Well guess this thread has turned serious, ok I'll play. First I'd like to say I'm really happy to see that this years 'bash the mods' thread is a bit more civil. The one last year (or was it the year before...?) had a few pretty nasty posters in it.

There's simply NO way to moderate a board in a way that would please every poster, that's abosultely impossible. While this board is a bit too moderated for my personal tastes - it is by far the best BB / Survivor board on the net in my personal opinion, and that's because of those who choose to hang out here - if this board were moderated too my own personal tastes then some of those who make this board what it is would probably not like it here and not be here. So while there are times I feel a bit frustrated when I see things that too me are just friendly folks disagreeing with each other getting pulled etc - I just remember the above.

I know there's the thought - that we should be able to change the way this board is moderated rather than having to choose from one of the dozens of other boards or starting our own, however - that's really not fair to all those who ARE happy with the way this board is now. Why should they change this board that hundreds (+ a few thousand lurkers) enjoy - just so the few of us who want it less moderated or more moderated would be happy.

I'd love to see a rule implemented "One complaint about moderation allowed per your personal $100 donation to this site" - for all those who have spent (as the initial poster said 4 years here) without having spent a dime... and still think they have the right to complain about this incredible entertaining free service hmmmmm... I think just for kicks I will have to go check and see how many who've complained here in this thread took 2 minutes of their time to thank Bomis for the incredible amount of bandwidth they've donated here - in the Thanks Bomis thread. What I'm trying to say is I don't think the average poster here has spent the equivelant of dinner and a movie for this entertainment... and yet still complain because it's not absolutely perfect? And then they think they have the right to complain about Ali complaining? LOL. A bit hypocritical.

Anyhow - there are dozens of BB / Survivor boards out there - anyone truly unhappy with this one should try one of the many others that are apparently better than this one - and I for one don't care to read a melodramatic 'goodbye cruel TVCH" post, unless said poster has donated tons to TVCH and thus might have a right to whine.

Now personally - I'm more interested in finding out if Lance really did say THAT word... as founder of his former fan club, I just have to get to the bottom of this. After all I thought he was the ultimate gentleman.... :)

Ok, well, this is just weird. Ali and Jun singing the "So Long, Farewell" song (Sound of Music) and I was just getting it via Google to post here. Eeek! I need to get a push up pop...NOW!

"So long, farewell, Auf wiedersehn, good night,
I hate to go and leave this pretty sight.
So long, farewell, Auf wiedersehn, adieu,
Adieu, adieu, to yieu and yieu and yieu."

I always wanted BB to fly in Semisonic to sing "Closing Time" for the last show.........

Closing time - open all the doors and let you out into the world.
Closing time - turn all the lights on over every boy and every girl.
Closing time - one last call for alcohol, so finish your whiskey or beer.
Closing time - you don't have to go home but you can't stay here.

I know who I want to take me home.
I know who I want to take me home.
I know who I want to take me home.
Take me home...

Closing time - time for you to go out to the places you will be from.
Closing time - this room won't be open 'til your brothers or you sisters come.
So gather up your jackets, and move it to the exits - I hope you have found a friend.
Closing time - every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end.
Yeah,

I know who I want to take me home.
I know who I want to take me home.
I know who I want to take me home.
Take me home...

Closing time - time for you to go out to the places you will be from...

I know who I want to take me home.
I know who I want to take me home.
I know who I want to take me home.
Take me home...

I know who I want to take me home.
I know who I want to take me home.
I know who I want to take me home.
Take me home...

Closing time - every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end...
