    It's called collective responsibility - if you choose to be part of the admin/moderation team, then whatever Moses does you get a share of the blame/credit, and vice versa.

    With power () comes responsibility

    Not so fast!

    There is a well known tenet in law that states that a person cannot be held responsible for am action if he/she had no way of knowing if such action would be taken.

    BTW, Moses was acting under rule 4.8. so I can't see what the problem is.

    Well, talking about "tenants in law" ... Guideline 4.8 seems to me to be new. Perhaps Neal wrote that, but I cannot see Surfcrest doing so. Did Moses add that rather authoritarian guideline?
    Hitler's Enabling Act of 1933 was very like Guideline 4.8.
    Guideline 4.8 The owners of SGT Forum reserve the right to remove, edit, move or close any thread for any reason.
    The Enabling Act 1933: The Enabling Act (German: Ermächtigungsgesetz) was a 1933 Weimar Constitution amendment that gave ... Chancellor Adolf Hitler – the power to enact laws without the involvement of the Reichstag.

    I know I know, a drama queen, right?
    Just another reason why I love living in Thailand

    I'm pretty sure it's "tenets".

    I don't know or care who wrote that rule; all I know is that it is there.

    And that something similar appears in many contracts.

    And if you don't like rule 4.8 because it reminds you of Hitler (!!), then why don't you lobby Moses to change it?

    Oh dear. Can't see A447s statement going down well with Gorbals Jock.
