Who are they
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

Re: Who are they
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.

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

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

I am sure they gave your offer a great deal of though and after 0.000001 seconds said "not a f......g chance"

Re: Who are they
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

Re: Who are they
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

Re: Who are they
Folowing your vile comment about poor old Foxy I have just recommended to the boss that HK be moved down a place in the official list of reserves, if accepted she will become 480thHK phooey wrote:I have just received this message;

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

I'll wager there should be an apostrophe in there somewhere?
