I'm a fan of less moderation as well and it's part of the reason this place has the following it does. I was admin at a much more ridid site and it drove the posters away. However, there has to be a happy medium and I think we generally maintain that here.

IMO, Mr Scot wasn't specific in his post and didn't single any one person out. The rules here are too loosely enforced as it is...and that's if you can come up with an agreement as to what the actual rules are.

I remember I tried to post seriously on the Atlanta board about us (the Panthers) WAYYYYY back, and it was horrible. IIRC, I got booted first post for telling them I was a Panthers fan.

To be a moderator is a challenging task believe it or not. Being able to tell the difference from trolling and an opinion is a must. Also being mindful of what you post makes a good moderator. When others see that you've broken the rules they feel like if he can do it so can i and that makes others feel as thoa they can do whatever they want now.

I'm humble to say that i could be one but i'm honest enough to say ive been a buthead from time to time. Two people that i think should be considered are catman and Mr Scot although i think they've been considered in the past.

Very wise post til the end. Mods should set the standard on what is posted here. There are a few I think would make great mods but I will reserve my opinion on who. I just hope it is someone who post alot in the Panthers forum.

I'm not involved in either, so I'll end my comments on the subject here.

So moderators only selectively apply their capabilities?

I'm not picking on you, I'm just attempting to show everyone for a lack of a better term that the fish rots from the head.

I believe this. And it shouldn't be like that. I embrace our competitions fans as long as they don't send me messages like "blow me like your momma did last night, n*gger."

I received one of these around 2:30 today.

It's good to get an outsiders opinion, smack talk as long as they keep it in perspective.

I hope whoever replaces squirrel is as unbiased and consistent as he was. Even if he agreed with you generally if you crossed the line he'd penalize you. That means no favoring one side or another. I think that if you've invested so much time in supporting one side you're contaminated and shouldn't be voted for, and that group of people includes me.

No, but there are hundreds of thousands of posts and if you think we see them all, you're kidding yourself.

I know what Mr. Scot said because I saw it in the infractions forum, but didn't feel like reading six pages of bickering and I don't know what other post you're referring to.
