Who are they

Unread post by gfwgfw »

Good day from dreary rural Dorset

There has been quite a large posting regarding the vexed subject of editing our efforts by our delightful moderators who ever they may be

My view is over egging the vigilance of posts makes for a very uninteresting neutered forum

Further more, moderators who are also members of the forum are placed in an invidious position in my opinion

The liberal moderation of the now defunct confection was excellent

Enjoy your day

Lubooo all

Everyone is entitled to their opinion and to voice same in a polite and measured manner.

However, when it comes to web forums, my view remains, as it always has, that whoever owns (and pays for!) the train set gets to decide who plays with it and how they play.

Thus far, I believe they have had just the right lightness of touch and have allowed things to flow

I still think they missed a trick not taking up my offer to moderate, I'd be great!

I have just received this message;

Hi Helen,
I have interrupted my holiday to let you know that you are indeed first reserve should one of the moderators drop out. I have always found your posts to be very fair and reasonable and I have no doubt that your excellent judgement would serve us well on Cruise Community. To be perfectly honest, Moby and Foxy just aren't able to reach your extremely high standards and I shall probably replace them on my return.

Kind regards

Herr Smurf


So, there you have it you losers :evil:

Funnily enough I too recieved a Smurfmail


Dear DK

HK has asked to be a moderator, when I have dried myself off , due to pi**ing myself laughing so much, I will send her a flowery little note to keep her on the back foot
there is more chance of you, Kenhaz and Derek Kane modrating on here than HK, but I had best keep her sweet, in case she goes off on one again

Moby, the 'vile' comment about Foxy was made by David, not my good self. I would thank you not to stir.

See how good I am at this moderating lark Smurfie?
