I feel like changing my vote to no moderations at this point. It seems as if the issue has been dropped.

Oh, Cultellus, I received the king size pillows yesterday. They will certainly aid me in having more comfort and relief in my life. THANKS, pal. And have a great day!

Now that Doc cam, Icarus and Some Schmo understand that picking on posters non stop won't be tolerated in Spirit Paradise, everything seems to be running smoothly. Dr. Shades has done a wonderful job at letting us work this out amongst ourselves. He's a true libertarian. Nemesis, over at MD&D should adopt some of Dr. Shades moderating skills.

I'm certainly a libertarian. I think this board ought to accommodate perverts and rank mysoginists, as well. Even more so, brain-dead Trump supporters and developmentally-challenged writers.

Dr. Shades is never late, nor is he early. He decides precisely when he means to. :mrgreen:

I did receive a response from Shades about the moderator issues. He may want to move forward with something, but only after he returns to the board, which he plans to do "soon" (as of a couple days ago). He wants to make sure any changes are done completely fairly, and oversee them himself.

I think his real struggles right now eclipse the urgency of his Internet project. Hopefully, people don't feel their Internet board crisis Trump's his real life struggles.

I've received no indication of his wishes concerning the interim moderation/insurrection (depending on how you want to look at it) of Terrestrial, so proceeding as usual, except now sometimes I'll split threads or move posts, as I've learned how to do those things.

However, for this thread in particular, since now there is a telestial version, please use that for cursing and sexual innuendo and trash talk. I probably won't take the time to move future posts from here to there and just delete.
