But I do support Brandon 100%.

This is wrong. I thought Firefly convinced Watchole to comment on the sexist moderation practices.

Saber, one of the fun things on these forums is seeing how long you can drag out an old thread.

Dang, I am with you. Read about 5-6 pages, then looked at the date on one post and it was over 2 years ago. I am way behind the times.

First, we need to publish a more thorough list of posting policies. A more thorough list of policies would detail more clearly what is and is not acceptable on the forums. There is too much ambiguity in the current user agreement that lends itself to inconsistency (or, at the very least, perceived inconsistency). We will work on this new policy list.

Second, we need to improve our communication with posters regarding moderation issues. Even if it is an automated “canned” response as to the reason for a ban would be helpful. I’m still not on board with the penalty box, but maybe there is something in the middle that can implemented.

I think that if you buy a star (stars) you should be able to moderate the posts of those poorer than you (meaning, w/ fewer or no stars).

I will never even consider buying a star until this is at least attempted. the abitrary way in which entire threads disappear is ridiculous. have a set of posting policies. enforce them consistantly. delete offending post, not entire threads. have a real reason and inform people the reasons for deletions.

PAGE JUAN.........thousand!

You know...do what you please Brandon. It's your sandbox we're just playing in it. I think that you should nuke the football board, but that's just my opinion.

Something about saying we're playing in Brandon's box just doesn't sound right.
