“After getting slapped in the face for doing the correct job and slapped again after my departure, they can go pound sand.
My work is done.
I get to sit back and watch a train wreck in slow motion.
The first car already went off the rails tonight”.

“A new team, clueless by definition, attempting to learn to walk, without the benefit of a parent, with the dictum of not using the stick
Watching it from afar is better than a new movie...................”

“He's just a very good troll and is taking full advantage of the new moderators. They don't view him as a troll. Hell two of them are trying to have a rational discussion with him.
Instead of booting the troll, they go after those that attack the troll. Craig sent me an e-mail about it.
The troll wins.”

“Yep, but they seem to be of the new "inclusive" moderation style where any troll is accepted.
I did the best I could to eliminate the trolls...............made for a much better forum.
They've also eliminated the public display of any infractions or warnings, so the forum membership has no idea where the "line" might be. Allows them to move "the line" at will. It's a lousy way to moderate, IMHO, moderating in the shadows.............so nobody knows............”

“There remain quite a few disgruntled folks over here who won't forget the arbitrary nature of the site back in 2004.
I'm afraid the arbitrary part of the moderation will be back in force as I speak.”

BC was the epitome of the little man complex, and I think the webmaster realized it. So he did his best working with unpaid volunteers and ended up with a team that unfortunately included TW.Since his departure I think the moderators have done a pretty damn good job (despite my aversion to any type of authority). There seems to be a lot more common sense, as opposed to rigid adherence to rules. That being said, there will always be mistakes, and people who are unhappy with decisions, but overall I think those who oversee this forum are doing a great job. Freedom of speech is the backbone of our nation, and to shut someone down because you don't see eye to eye with them is just wrong, whether I agree with them or not.

He may be searching for a motive behind all this commentary from you regarding past and current Open Discussion moderators who have sent you to your room without supper in the past.

I'm not so sure he's comfortable with you aswering for him, but we'll see if he has his own response.

I don't withhold my distaste for duplicity and or dishonesty based on whether someone may be or may not be a past or present OD moderator, you should know better than that!

no -you don't. Some of us had to be careful about saying what was on our minds because of rats like you who were waiting with baited breath for someone to say something that you could whine to the moderators about. Now it appears your sniveling is falling on deaf ears, hence the lack of infractions on those you disagree with, (as well as those whom I disagree with for that matter) which is how it should be.

You should explain how so, perhaps other could then take you serious.
