I second that!I say we keep the sarcasm!

Well, I don't know if you can ignore a mod. dmmj says you can, so try it. As for the reprimands you are talking about, I know nothing about them. I do know though, that us mods work pretty hard to have no favoritism, in fact lots of times, if someone is too close to the situation because of a friendship or dislike, etc., they will ask us other mods to please watch a certain thread, as they are to closely involved to be fair. Not to say we don't have those we like better then others, or those we consider friends, but we still try to be fair and the other mode are there to make sure we are. Now, blood will protect blood, and they sure should. But, that blood does not show favoritism. Again, I would like to see the post/threads you are talking about.Unfortunately, it is not that simple.
Can I use the ignore button on moderators?
Do you really think a mod would be impartial if one were to do so, when they are clearly not already?
Yes you can have your own rules and definitions if they are consistent and possible to understand. Sadly, that is not the case.
So you can protect the blood?
What would be the point.
It's quite clear what would not happen.
Thank you to the many friends I've made here and your words of encouragement and support here, on other threads and by PM.
I will miss so many of you.
But as expected the mods have gone into self defense mode and anything else would be futile.
I've clearly imagined it all.
So, I'm gone.
bye.
If you are talking in general terms then I am sorry that you feel this way. And forum members in general should pay attention to what they say and how they say it. But if you were talking about a specific person then I suggest you PM that person and tell them how you feel. Especially if it has happened more than once.Not sure if this is totally relevant or not, but I always anticipate a not so polite, nearly chastising reply from a member. Like...I figure no matter what I say, that person will have something to say that is probably right on point, but gets lost in the superior, impatient tone it's written.
I might get my first “delete".
Only after saying, “it'll only hurt for a minute".You probably tell that to all the moderators.
In my opinion the post I commented on was all I said, clear and respectfully written. I'm not sure why it's been deleted. Maybe so the consortium can compare notes?Very clear and well written reply. I'm sure you noticed at lunch when you called me out for leaving my hat on at the table I promptly removed it without another word.
No one in their right mind should ever take on a pole cat.
I could careless about whatever this stuff is that is going on and don't wish to get evolved but I will say this, I read your posts and didn't see anything wrong with them, I don't understand why they got deleted, I'm starting to get the feeling this site isn't the place for me either.Both my posts were deleted, I did not break any rules or be rude and I expect a PM to explain why. I was direct, honest, and true. I didn not call names, . Why deleted??? I'll just keep posting them until I'm told why. This is wrong.

jaizei said:I don't know if anyone else pm'd you, but if you could, please just ignore Maggie. She's obviously having problems of some sort And you've gotten under her skin.
Tidgy's Dad said:She asked me to ignore her, so I shall.
I have no wish to irritate her any further.
I believe in free speech, so she can say what she likes, it's fine by me.
i actually don't have a problem with her.
I thought it was all just friendly banter, but misjudged the situation.
No harm was intended and i'm not going to get nasty.
Thanks for the advice, know you're doing your job, which I respect and (hopefully) being friendly.
But I'm fine.
I have not and will not bad mouth Maggie.
Well, yes, but then if one of the 'ignored' mods posts you a warning or tells you off,(not a reprimand, apparently), then one wouldn't see it and would get into more trouble. And i'm not saying that moderators don't give good and useful advice that I would like to see.

No, not in either of those deleted posts, yes in 2 PM's. But not in the deleted posts....I haven't had a chance yet to get caught up, but one of them had the 'F' word in it.
No I didn't. I just wanted a moderator to tell me what was wrong with those posts. I was defending what I perceived as an attack against my sister's morals. I PM'd the moderator on duty and was not answered. So I asked publickly.Not speaking for Jaizei, but I am guessing he made the public post to Maggie because she seemed to want Mod action taken public. As a rule, this would have been done in private. ...just wanting to clear that part up.
