Are the Mods alone responsible for that? I don't think so. I am just trying to provide some honest and helpful feedback to all of us, including me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are the Mods alone responsible for that? I should hope not. I'd like to think at least 70% of us adults here. Maybe it's lolcat culture that has brewed here, although I don't see it as disrespect as much as I see it as boredom filling the gaps of legitimate conversation worthy topics.

OK, because I don't feel the Mods should dictate something so broad of scope as you are suggesting. We enforce the TOS. We can't make posters get along. We can certainly facilite discussions with resolution being the goal. But we can't make members like each other or treat each other with more respect. Suspension is supposed to be deterrent, but it doesn't seem to always work that way. As for the grace that you mention, I don't believe it is applicable in this case. But if it were, I'd say that the grace tank was drained bone-dry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If anyone wants any action from us they would pm us. I fail to see how his actions were a cry for help. But honestly lets get off the subject of junkie. I dont like talking about people who don't have a voice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
