Now I'm going to write a book titled, Why are we Mods so hated? hahahaha!

[TomServo]

Or better yet, even if it's not a dupe, tell him it is anyway, and link back to the thread he posted... ;0)

LOL! I hit the button plenty, already. And rumor has it, abusing the AR button sends you to the cornfield.

[Brad’s Gramma]

Freepmail, John.

[LurkerNoMore!]

You know I love and trust you.

[Chad Fairbanks]

It needs to have a title that reaches out and grabs you - how about "Knock it off: How cute and cuddly FReepers became the most hated people alive"

[Chancellor Palpatine]

Y'know, you'd think he would have played that one closer to the vest, so as to avoid this result.

To each his own.

[NewLand]

I've not checked those out for a long time..

Stay close to the shower if you do... :-D

I like to hit Abuse on myself - it's, well, mmmmmm... dreamy...

[Chancellor Palpatine]

Thick glasses and hairy palms, right?

I would use the term "self-flagellation" but fear what you would do with it.

I have been on FR since '98. I came here for news, information and political analysis.

I do not and never will consider this forum as anything other than that. I write almost no Freepmail and receive very few.

I do not consider this a social venue of my life.

I am becoming very afraid that FR is becoming just a big chat room of internal arguments of members and not the forum as stated by Jim in his front page of welcome.

[Freedom2specul8]

Thank you for the tip! Nothing like a good clean anti-bacterial soap for the little booger threads that have evolved...

[logos]

Well, shucks! As usual, I'll bring up the rear, so to speak.

I, too, am a Mod, and that should surprise one or two posters who are still here, who might have expected me to ban them, based on some of our earlier exchanges. ;^) I was asked by Lead Moderator so long ago I've forgotten just when it was, and I've been a moderator since then. I think I'm the only one who is still a Sidebar Moderator; guess I'm just not mean enough, eh?

Since I've been with you all since the very beginning I must say for the record: I've not seen anyone banned capriciously, for spite, as an act of vengeance, or for any reason I didn't agree was valid. Most bans come about only after two or more mods have discussed the pros and cons of the matter and come to an agreement. To my knowledge, no one has been banned without the agreement of Jim, if not before the fact, then upon his review.

Thanks, Jim, for allowing me to contribute in this small way to your fine forum.

Is that all of us now?

[Chad Fairbanks]

Hmmm... I'm thinking now would not be a good time to bring that kinda stuff up, with all the mods coming out of the closet... ;0)

[TomServo]

I'm thinking now would not be a good time to bring that kinda stuff up

Hey - I've lasted this long. What the hell...

[Willie Green]

DomOrgan is BADJOE ??
Shirley you have your willy twisted, my boy..

So you're not gonna buy into that one, eh???
LOL! Oh well, it was worth a try!

[Sabertooth]

Now I'm going to write a book titled, Why are we Mod so hated? hahahaha!

You'll just get hidden behind racks Al Franken's latest,
"I Wish I Could Afford that Big Fat Habit."

[JohnHuang2]

LOL -- True, very true.

[Chad Fairbanks]

Seeing as how I've lasted as long as I have here without being banned, suspended, etc... I can't understand why people think the mods are heavy-handed and stuff...
