Re: Moderation

I find it offensive that it isn't Lasher sending me threats,
but rather a mod. I've taken to CC'ing Lasher when I
receive them, because unless a mod is marked as
"admin", I don't see that they automatically have the
authority to out me on double secret probation.

Since I haven't heard Lasher object, I presume my
"thin ice" (and that's a quote from one of the PM's)
status is valid.

But I find it distateful that it's his people taking it upon
themselves to be tough guys, rather than him taking
his admin responsibility to avoid having a vacuum
where people step in and act like they're boss.

If Bob or Sue Moderator is in fact site co-admin, then
let's please have that documented somewhere.

For that matter, is there a mod list? How can you tell
who mods what board?

Is there a PM alias so that I can CC all mods?


Anyway, I've had another post deleted, this one
apparently on aesthetic ground, since I'm told
it violated no rules. I've been hunting around my
private thread cache and am still not quite finding which
one it was. It's quite tedious because my thread cache
is in ghostscript format and I have to grep by sight.

So I'd like to ask that if a post is in fact deleted, the
mods please take the time to specify which post it was
by quoting it, and explicitly declare the reason
for the deletion.

If I take the time to write more than one word in a
post, you can take the time to quote it in a PM
before deleting it.

If you can't be bothered to have a "flames" or "offtopic"
board to archive removed material, at least help posters
maintain *some* record for themselves of the erased past.
