And what was that you said about mind reading some other time? Yeah, nothing like a little pot and kettle. I use snark to inject humor, not to belittle anyone. But if you insist that it is always the case then you have engaged in it plenty.

If you have an issue with my moderating, feel free to say so and express your concerns to another staff member. I said from the beginning I would be giving a long leash, and that includes to myself. I haven't taken any moderator actions in here because no one has gone too far. I hold myself to the same standards as everyone else on this forum which isn't a strict adherence to the CoC because of the very nature of the discussions here.

But this is not really a discussion for this place. If you have complaints about my being a mod, go ahead and take them to another staff member, but stop the passive aggressive stuff and discuss the topics at hand.

I said from the beginning that no mod should be a P/R regular; nothing personal.

Hell Benton is a J/N mod and has drastically reduced his posts in this forum and IMO the forum is worse off for it.

One cannot expect to be taken seriously as an unbiased moderator when that person continues to show their bias.

Given you are one of the more even-keel posters in this forum, but you are not above slanting to one side and it has been shown on more than 1 occasion.

As to the "mind reading" on my part. Here is the definition of Snarky:

Quote:1
: crotchety, snappish
2
: sarcastic, impertinent, or irreverent in tone or manner

In the future if you wish to be considered humorous use humor. Sorta like the "not getting out of life alive" bit.
