A funny thing about human nature....

Posted:
in General Discussion edited January 2014
I notice a good number of posts complaining of Mods, over-moderating. The funny thing is, I see just as many people who aren't moderaters complaining that a post is in the wrong area. Usually within the first few posts, someone who is not a Mod either complains, or stats matter-of-factly it is in the wrong area.



I submit that you are over-moderating yourselves. :cool:



I also submit a constant in the universe: You can't make everyone happy. Worse yet, people love to find something to complain about, even when life is at its best <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" />

    <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" /> You obviously have not been in Fireside Chat! Often desperate cries for moderation go unanswered... We are left feebled and weak by personal attacks that go unpunished. Even certain moderators have been known to let go and sling some mud themselves. No one cares. It's a free-for-all.. Madness I tell you! Madness!!

    I think it's clear that the members here have been Finlandized by the moderators. Classic victim-opressor pattern.



    Remember, some of the Jews in the concentration camps were invovled in the murder of their people. Exact same thing happening here at AI today.
