I wanna see the ban hammer come down and strike with vengeance!
I want to see more "moved on"
I want to see more "moved on"
but even in real life social groups the group has a say of who leads them, speaks for them, makes decisions for them....
and decisions are more often than not talked about within that group and discussed...
what we got here was a coup...
You've been here long enough to know what happened last time and the time before that. At the end of the day, when it's all said and done, does it really matter? New people will continue to show up and need a little boost to their offers, or some advise or whatnot - we can either help or ..... about how things are run - easy enough choice.
I could see how someone could think thatThe pattern I see in the PIF group is that the owner and the mods get to a point where they have taken so much abuse, they get fed up and quit, leaving the group to someone else.
I think adding the extra mods is definitely going to make the job more managable. It's a rough job full of hassles, I think that had a lot to do with the past issues. If we screw things up this time it'll be bad, not two week bad, not a month bad, but bad bad.... I don't think we'll get a better crew than we have now - I wouldn't put up with half the crap they deal with behind the scenes and neither would 99% of the the people here.Then those people have to go through the same thing. Not saying that every mod/owner that was chosen in the past was a great choice... that's not for me to say. But the group we have now is a good one, and I sincerely hope that you guys cut them some slack instead of driving them off, and rolling the dice on the next set of mods.
How could I ban someone with such a little cutie in their avatar pic?

Note to Bob - you already have a cutie in the av pic - just ditch the green thing.
I've sent a PM...
I'll echo my concern here...
the drama we had in may followed the same course...
first threads that had no need to be deleted were...
then random posts deleted....
then complete threads...
then threads were started and quickly closed where no criticism was allowed only total agreement with the PIF mods...
then people were being censored and ejected from the group with no warning...
it became a total gestapo state...and there was no fun or joy in it...
we've already hit the same first 2 marks...are we going to allow it to happen again to this group?
I think I can honestly say I'd be one of the biggest opponents of this happening.....at any cost.
Please dont play along with this Drama.We leave all these threads open and let everyone discuss things.We arent going around deleting every comment we dont like and we arent closing the doors and booting everyone for no reason.All we are doing is trying to see what everyone wants and keeping the peace so fights dont break out in the threads.Maybe deleting an insult or improper comment,but it needs to be done so someone isnt hurt or embarassed.Give us a break and a chance to get it worked out.We have had one head Mod that runs everything,now we have 4 equal voices to decide things fairly with everyones input and opinions being heard,Sounds like quite the improvement to me.Give it a chance.
