6. Agreed but...
Has a moderator ever been wrong and if so they be allowed to feel they are right by ones silence? When is it right to overlook wrong?

7. Mods are wrong many times, generally, there is
Edited on Mon Oct-18-04 08:59 PM by qnr
a hidden forum where moderators duke it out. I don't know if that is the case here, but it is on the forums I've moderated.

You don't argue with or between mods in the open areas for the good of the board, but the discussions do take place.

Ugh - 700th post.

10. yes moderators have been wrong
but rarely, and when it happens, they apologize.

They're also generally pretty easy-going until things get out of hand.

19. You know, what's the point?
Are you so outraged that someone flaunted the rules here a bit that you have to make insulting generalizations about his/her intelligence? Do you feel better for having done so?
