Get Yer Ya-Yas Out [FR Moderating Gripe Thread]

[history]
LM here.
It's been a while since we had a thread along these lines.
I can tell from comments I am seeing in threads, on abuse reports, and in Freepmail that some people are unhappy with various policies and their implementations by the staff here.
I've seen allegations that certain factions are picked on. I've seen allegations that the moderators have killed activism. I've heard rumors that we killed Kenny, and even that we killed the radio star. I see certain personality conflicts acting up, and know that one (or both) sides in it feel that we aren't doing what we should.
So let's open this can of worms.
This thread is for making your grievances heard. If you think something stinks or is wrong, make your case here. Back it up with facts. Let the audience at large weigh in on your evidence.
I'll read the thread. Jim will too in all likelihood. So will the other moderators. Depending upon how well you make your point, and depending on if you can convince Jim, me, the other moderators, and/or the world, maybe you can change things. And if you don't, then it might make you feel better to have vented, so it won't make this thread a total loss.
I'm not going to reply to this thread for quite a while. Rather, I am going to sit back and watch to try and get a feel for the general tenor. I encourage those who are both happy and unhappy with things to particpate in this thread.
Let's rock.

You can handle all of them.
They'll never recover.
You'll leave them "gelded."

Kinda hard to put it all back to the way it was pre WWII.I'm more concerned with preventing degradation of our industrial infrastructure to parity with Bolivia.

Just teasing... I couldn't resist ;-)

There ARE a lot of them, aren't there? I suspect that it's going to get worse. How big it the VK pot, for President Bush? It must be getting big.

Interestingly (maybe I missed it, but...), I saw no one who typically complains about their friends being banned condemning what happened on this thread.
To: nopardons
I haven't checked lately.Some of the European "teachers of truth and light"are a real pain...and spam your mailbox.
