I will say this. I’m a fan, same as all of you. When I post I’m posting as a fan.
Unless I post something moderatorish like, let’s get back on track. Which it’s been a while since any of us has been any kind of strict about staying on topic. I hope that changes when the team gives us something to talk about.
most of my moderating is editing four letter words, deleting bs, moving posts to more relevant threads.
But when I post, I post as a fan.
I’m usually polite. Not always. If I like a post I’ll “like” it. If I don’t, I usually ignore it. If you engage me & disagree with me but repeat what I just said in the positive, I’m going to call you on it.
But that’s just posting as a fan. Just like you. Has nothing to do with being a mod.
As for all this stuff about “certain posters” causing trouble. You can say you don’t like it all you want. But when you engage in those conversations more than any other you’re showing me what you want.
Then you get upset & frustrated because you realize you’re operating at an intellectual level he isn’t capable of. I get it. I used to get lost in the same rabbit holes. So I just stopped.
This isn’t my board. I don’t get to say who is allowed here & who isn’t. I moderate. I don’t make the rules. I don’t form policy.
I like this place. I like this team. If I offend you, you’ve got really thin skin.
