Dear Mods: Things I want to say.
Catfat | Thursday, February 20, 2003 - 01:55 pm     I for one appreciate the moderators. I can't bear to read posts with foul language, or people flaming each other for differences of opinion, or other bits of bad manners. I have been moderated on more than one occasion, and I have taken it with good graces and have apologized. I especially appreciate it when the moderators correct my misinformation (i.e. mixing up Iran and Iraq) and when I double post. How in gawd's name I keep doing that, I can't figure out, but they keep fixing it for me. Some boards are so peppered with filthy f-words, personal attacks, and name calling, it is impossible to read the messages. I believe the letter writers on this board to be the best educated and expressive of almost any I have read. Thanks you, writers and thank you, moderators. |
Faerygdds | Thursday, February 20, 2003 - 03:54 pm     Dear Mods: What has happened to my fair board as of late??? Every time I go into the hot topics area (which I love) I see 20 posts in a topic and at least 4 of them have been moderated! Now... I'm not complaining mind you... just the opposite. I am glad you are here when people lose their head momentarilly and post really bad things. My concern is this. Why do the posters seem to be losing their cool more now than before??? I think we all need to take a step backwards and take a DEEP breath. Then maybe we won't feel like ripping each other to shreds! In the meantime... if you feel like your blood pressure just went up... or you face flushes in anger or indignation... give yourself a bit of time before you post... Make the mods jobs a little easier eh??? |
Crossfire | Thursday, February 20, 2003 - 05:10 pm     Is there that much? I'm not really seeing it. There's been a couple for sure, but overall, I am quite impressed. Given the subject matter, I personally think we all get a pat on the back for better than expected behaviour. WTG everyone. |

Bastable | Monday, March 10, 2003 - 12:57 pm     I think the Mods are so just about the most conscientious people I've seen on the Web. I've never met any of them, but I imagine them dressed all in white, tall and elegant, with long flowing beards, damask eyes twinkling with wisdom and kindess. Like a meeting of White Wizards deep in an enchanted forest, or a parliament of generous gods. Okay, so that's a little boot-licky. But I still mean the first part. They really give a hoot about this place, and I for one am grateful for their attentions. |
Lancecrossfire | Monday, March 10, 2003 - 01:05 pm     I am a shorts and t-shirt guy. I wear pants when it snows or gets into the teens for temperature. No beard, but only because of work restrictions. lol Bastable, I have to agree about your fisrt sentence concerning those who are fellow moderators. The care an awful lot about this site. I hope everyone can remember that we are members as well--that we love this place. |
Cyn | Monday, March 10, 2003 - 01:33 pm     I think the MODs are the absolute best! What Bastable said too! |
