Election Year or Fear!

Nice to see you sticking up for the boss again

The ***** thing is a bit daft and well past its sell by date, the others however have a reason if I recall my modship elsewhere, and that's that they prevent sickos/perverts/scammers and the like from identifying potential conversations that they can infiltrate and influence. In these strange days it also has the unintended impact of keeping away those from totally the other end of the spectrum who seek to find offence in what (in our case for instance) are such words used innocently and pertinently in general discussion.

I’m not ‘sticking up’ for anyone but it’s noticeable that you use the language of the playground which, frankly, is how your never ending spat with Swale comes across. God knows I’ve had my differences with him but it’s almost become a point of principle with you to seek a fall out whatever he says.

It’d be different if you weren’t a/‘the’ ‘moderator’ and meant to set an example. I’m still a little confused about that, btw, given the disclaimer at the bottom of the title page which suggests ‘these forums are not actively moderated’. Could you possibly clear that up…are you just another contributor or a moderator…because if the forum isn’t ‘actively moderated’ any more it’s difficult to see how you remain a moderator?
