I don't want to be a moderator anymore. Give Fringe to Amadd and leave Gaybriel with Extremism Exposed. I am too much of a nazi, a control freak, unreasonable, repulsive and what ever else you want to say.

I am not actually leaving the website, but I refuse to do this moderator crap anymore. I am too authoritarian.

If you leave me as mod I am going to delete stuff for no reason and change posts for no reason.

Easel - you can't hurt people without expecting a little back sometimes.  

No-one wants you to stop being moderator - just pause a little before you write something that is insulting.

Has Amadd been banned?

More civilisational cofidence, man! Stating your views is not authoritarian. Grup hug is for group-huggers.

Here's a little personal gift for you. I hope you have a laff. :)

I don't want to be moderator anymore. I am not spending a couple of hours each day trawling the internet looking for interesting articles for no satisfaction.

Hopefully things will be better now when members can post in threads and demand they go the way they want or boycott discussion, which is how Amadd wanted it in the first place.

I think you are one of the better modders, but it ain't up to everyone.

All the best easel

Can't blame you for that, at all.  This 'moderation' gig was never, in my narrow experience, to gee up debate.

That is for the Members to do.

The 'Moderator' is there to keep an even keel.

No wonder Abu is in the poo.  

Some other bugger ought Moderate there, so he can just blast away.

Aussie, yes, that's for sure.

You are not expected to generate interest by starting topics, though it is a bonus if you do. Some of the moderators I have here don't even turn up any more. You don't have to concern yourself if someone tries to dominate a thread either. I'd be happy if you just kept people in line when the insults start flying.

Just subdue fighting is all a mod should do. Amadd was right and Im glad its all done. [quote]Has Amadd been banned?
