I love how many men here get their panties in a bunch over Lem's posts.

If you do, in all likelihood, you’ll be called sexist. And then you’re a marked man.

Don't mistake respect for fear, gents. Your insecurity is showing.

I was wondering if you are applying here to be a moderator?

If you're made moderator will you give me special privileges?

:P
Truth be told, the only person that, in my experience, has been a just a fair moderator is Shades himself. So, the fact that he is not able to allocate the time which would be necessary to be a fair and just moderator puts this board in somewhat of a dilemma. Without fair and just moderators this board will continue towards a ‘crash and burn’ trajectory.

And by the way, I don’t know what his current life struggles are, but I wish him all the best. I’ve met him in real life, and I have respect for the man.

Hi MG. I hope you and yours are well.

Given that Shades requires his mods to be clones of Shades, I’m interested in your opinion that Shades was the only fair moderator. Having viewed the process from both sides of the fence, so to speak, I’d be interested in why you’ve concluded that Shades was fair but his theoretical clones were not.

we all just have to live through it,

Oh come on. That's just being dumb. You're better than that.

Gee.

I appreciate you sharing your opinion on both counts - The respect you have for Lem and the knowledge you possess about my insecurity.

I can only speak from personal experience. Shades dealt with situations I was involved in with what I believe was a fair and evenhanded way. I can’t say the same for other moderators. They’ve been hit and miss…and often missing in action.

I hope all is well with you also. 🙂

No danger of that. I personally have little fear of Lemming. Also little respect. Although she is pretty good with numbers and stats. I’ll hand that to her.

Her behavior, in my opinion, is as close to troll like as I can imagine.

Get out the muskets team Lemming!

C’mon, problems with ceeboo? Like I said, what gives?

MG
