Although I appreciate the defense, I am now utterly confused Jo. Where/how did my name get dragged into this? 8-[

Btw Jo I don't understand a word you are saying.

Are you a spokesperson for them? You are sharing your opinion which is fine, but a blind and or oblivious person to what this is and has been all about..there is an actual reason and very valid point to it all, sadly I only know of 2 that can actually see that. What sparked the EXTRA aggression was the way a serious discussion thread (and not only that one) degraded RAPIDLY by these very mods and OBTW it is not the 1st time as a pattern of such behavior long before that thread was ever started..had been established. Now I ask you (if I am reading your posting properly) WHO THE **Filtered** ARE YOU to speak on behalf of persons that have an issue with mods or "something" and they get scoffed at and as a result we have what we have and YOU are passing judgment and do not even know your ass from a whole in the ground on this particular subject. Over this past year the mod team HAS NOT been doing a good job ESPECIALLY through the summer months which is a 4 month span..I am sorry pal, it was the worst moderated forum I have ever seen in that time frame, on many areas, and I do happen to see allot of forums.

Edit- and huge barrels of **Filtered** blew up in peoples faces. I kinda knew that would happen :roll:

I'm not trying to be a spokesperson to anyone. I just thought a little respect by the mods would go a long way and I'm actually a bit surprised that mods seem to oppose the idea of basic respect towards their "opponents". And I don't give a **Filtered** about what goes on here I just noticed that and I thought I'd share my thoughts so that the mod team could improve (it seems those that have read this don't want to tho).

This is the point I'm trying to make. If the mods refrained from doing that people like you would still be angry at them etc. but less so.

Moderators take more abuse than most of the people hating each other in wars ever do. No matter what a Moderator does, we will never please anyone because in the end we have to enforce the rules. Nobody enjoys being told to do something, or alter something that they see is right.

If you stand on the outside looking in with a neutral mindset, you can easily observe which posts have merit while others just remain completely useless. Even posts that are flames can be taken positively if you know what to look for, sadly though, most people look at the flame and not where the flaming is coming from.

If an individual comes to me upset, I look at it from all angles before making a reply. Everyone, Moderators included, should at least try this train of thought. It helps. ;)

So basically, your idea of respect is not having an opinion? Mkay

Ah, that clears things up. You had me pretty confused. I must have read JT's post six times, looking for a clue.

Ah well, I now know you have feelings for me Juliette as you can't quite seem to get me out of your head. ;)

You can have an opinion. You just don't have to say it if it's negative. You mods could do first come first serve so that the couple of mods that post first are enough. It can be daunting when half the mods are ridiculing your thoughts. Again it doesn't matter if they are ridiculous.

Then that's quantity not quality. You are assuming that the first couple of mods that post in response to something is enough and nothing else needs to be said. So you assume the first couple of mods will be correct in what they say and cover everything that needs to be said.

Personally that's ridiculous. No Mod speaks on my behalf, therefore if I feel I have something to add to a topic then I can assure you I will add it. However, I am trying to keep that down to a minimum now to where it really only concerns me.

Foreigners always take everything so literally #-o I'm just throwing ideas out there of how it could be handled better.
Btw the posts in those topics atm sure as hell ain't quality.
