Although he once banned me, I find the Moderation here very light , which is as it should be if you want a Board that breathes new ideas and constantly has threads where a large number of members respond .
Those are the kind of threads that keep a Board interesting even when some acrimony shows its head.
I see absolutely no reason to know who the Moderators are and just hope they rule with a light hand and don't get upset when someone complains to them. (goes with the Job)
Firecat - is that an undertaking that should you personally have a post moderated/edited/deleted in the future you'll just be accepting it and won't be demanding to know WHO did it?
Just asking, so we can all be clear.
What I would say to you Tobi, is ASSHOLE.Quote:

Since the Moderators are an extension of Surfcrest , I doubt I would be bothered enough to care. And besides what gives any poster here the right to determine how the Board is run. They can make suggestions and if they don't like it they can leave.
Until the posters pay the bills , I feel their rights are very limited if any!
Which, because of it's pure and unadulterated speculation and total lack of factual knowledge, driven - for some unknown reason - by your pure, unadulterated and nonsensical intensity of dislike [see below] for Jellybean ... and thus rendered useless as any reasonable semblance of an intelligent observation.Quote:

I can't believe everyone is getting pissy about a couple guys coming in to help Surfcrest out. I think we can all agree, moderation here has been excellent while Surfcrest has been at the helm. Assuming he continues to be at the helm, I don't see the issue.
I'm sure many of you remember what this place was like before. Posts were being modified / deleted left and right, because it was "his playground" as he put it. That doesn't happen anymore, so unsure what everyone is getting worked up about.
I agree, the new mods should probably reveal themselves, but I'm sure they will in time. GIve it a couple months, and we'll know who they are. :)
Place your bets people! Place your bets! I'm going for PeterUK and bobsaigon.
Totally inane argument. First of all Surfcrest has proven himself not to be like the former owner over quite a period of time. Not only that he has taken suggestions and changed some things that members suggested.Quote:

Complaining about nebulous things before anyone has anything to complain about just seems to be a waste of time.
Wait and see something that you don't like with the change before you complain about it.
Missed the point completely! By a country mile too!!
If you can see a criticism of Surfcrest or a complaint about the board in the quote you have highlighted, you're hallucinating.
