Tell you what when the media and general public hold any fault of the president accountable like they did Trump I will agree with the status quo.
FWIW, one of the numerous roles a mod plays involves withholding one's own personal opinion and judgement. Although, in todays world maybe that doesn't apply.
Dear Lord, he isn't moderating a campaign debate. Which by the way, was a joke during the latest campaigns where liberals were given underhand softball pitches and the conservatives were basically attacked. A moderator's job on a website is to monitor posting rules, not worrying about chasing someone into their safe space.
Where does this rule exist? The guy volunteers to look at this place from time to time was not aware of a moderator's oath.
We can not fully recover from Covid 19 without taking meaningful action on climate change, now wear your mask.
Please explain this, where have you found a moderation bible with the rules and guidelines? Or is that just what your safe space requires?
It absolutely does matter. A debate and a hunting website are in no way similar. To think that a website monitor should be impartial and keep his opinion to himself is one of the most absurd things I have ever heard. Don't believe me, look it up. Different definitions based on the scenario. Sorry if that does not fit your agenda, but again, that is an agenda that does not hold water.
Not for nothing but LC kickedAss in the competition this year. We have all been here for years and you have to admit at least that. He sacrificed his time and some of that was his hunting time. Whether I agree are disagree with his stance I'll fight like Hell for his right to have it. He was and is a member first. I respect you LC and always want to hear your opinion.
I looked that up a long time ago, the position of a mod is made clear. It doesn't change from case to case. The thinking is the same, be neutral. Spin yourself into oblivion, we ARE done conversing. Trust me when I say that.
I respect him as well. I also appreciate his role here, both as a member and a mod. Just because I spoke my opinion doesn't mean I don't like or respect him.
Holy ****e! That is a typical lefty twisting to suppress a person's right to freedom of speech They trained you well!
For what it's worth, I, who am admittedly right leaning, was warned for a right leaning post I made by LC. Bias would have been allowing it go unchecked while checking someone else. Saying a moderator or administrator cannot hold or speak their personal beliefs, be it religous, political or otherwise, simply because they volunteer their time(mods and admins) and money(admin) to maintain the forum is a bit childish and petulent. From your mannerisms on the subject, @early in, I would wager a paycheck to say you report most of the posts that get reported simply because your feelings get nipped. Yet, you goad people on and try to incite them then go silent when asked to defend your stance without using the word "Trump" in it. Now, had LC came out and stated you would be banned if you did not answer the question asked of you by @fletch920 , then I would agree with you and would stand up for you. He simply stated he would like to see you or anyone who supports Biden to give a valid reason for it that isn't a "because Trump" type answer. You can't and they won't. Pretty cut and dry. You were a lifelong Republican before Trump, yet all those values have been replaced even after Trump has been voted out in your fair election, yet I am willing to bet another paycheck you are rooting for the Senate seats to flip in todays GA runoffs. That is my reasoning I take nothing you say seriously in the political thread. Your complete and total hatred of Trump has blinded you to what you "supposedly" believed in and stood for, for your entire life. As I stated previously, enjoy your new party, you're going to be great with them.

Weird, I guess his job is to approve or reject messages and uphold the terms of service. Doesn't say anything about not hurting your feelings. But, you read things a bit differently than most. Biased comprehension is a real struggle for some. And, we were not conversing, I was pointing out your inexhaustible hypocrisy. If I were you, I would also quit.
I’m driving to Arkansas right. I stopped for gas and No, not at all. I’m allowed to participate in any thread if I choose to do so and voice my opinion like anyone else. My job is to enforce the forum rules and oversee the contest. That doesn’t mean I can’t voice my opinion but I do have to be totally fair about it and I believe I do that.
