Couldn\'t agree more Rev. I\'ve never had time for those who whine to teacher....
Some people have no sense of humour. :flip:

Take it with a grain of salt as this too shall pass.So you tend to be a bit harsh at times people will either get over it or not.The other persons opinion is never as important as your own unless you adopt theirs as yours and then it becomeas yours,right.If I have ever said anything to harsh oh well I have already forgotten it it. Due what feels right to you,dont change for someone else then you cease to be you.DD

I like your post.They are funny. Even when we had our barney a few months ago. It was out and over with. No hard feelings.
I will still give you a noogie when I meet you.
Oh and for the record. If anyone has a problem with me, they can pm me too.
I was told giving my opinion was like starting a bar fight then ducking out the back door. I never agreed with that.You have my address. You can find me if you really want to.

It\'s a pinch of salt DD! A grain just doesn\'t cut the mustard in this case, or any other documented cases of sodiun chloride larsony!
And your very brave coming out like that rev.
I quite rightly wouldn\'t give a rodents rectum if someone complained about me (apart from the one count involving a cirtain lady and my bare arse), but I digress...

I always suspected something was a bit off from your blog picture

I have not received any complaints either.
BUT...that doesn\'t mean there haven\'t been any, or it isn\'t a valid point. Some people may be more comfortable with Mike than with the other moderators.
I know nothing of any cliques as I am a \'what you see is what you get\' type guy as well.
As to airing this greivance publicly....I can understand the viewpoint that it seems tactless, but I would hope that if anyone has a problem with what I do (as a moderator) would feel comfortable enough to take me to task on it, publicly.
I\'m not a big fan of \'closed door\' meetings. There are times and places for it, I agree, but for the most part anything I do should be held up to public scrutiny.
That is not to say that Mike feels that way about it. Differences in style don\'t necessarily convey conflict. He is entitled to his opinion as much as I (or any of us) is.

Yeah that is true. I would feel more comfortable approaching Jim as after the last month or two I feel more of a connection with him than the others.
In fact you could say more of a relationship, with shared thoughts and observations.
In fact it is perfectly normal for me to have a room with candles and incense and pictures of models with Jims head on them that only I have the key to!
lolI think I created that photo
Reverend, I have no problems with you, I\'ll PM you if I do
I\'ll also echo your sentiments, as in all PM conversations I have had with any of the mods, they have mentioned people PMing them to moan about me. So, out with it! Make your feelings Open :]

I agree. If I feel the need to pass comment on any of the people here I will do it on the forums.
whenever I have a problem with Rev I try to make as much noise about it as possible, which is possibly why I only just make it onto his respect list
BUT, I do think people should be able to go to the mods in strictest confidence if they have a grievance. People deal with things differently, and not everyone enjoys a rumble, even a virtual one.
I dont know what you mean by there being a clique, but maybe it was alluding to a group of people who use a similar form of provocative and sometimes crass/crude/lude behaviour on the forums that always back eachother up...
just adding my pennies to the pot

I\'m only posting now to show my face. I\'ve said my piece and if it\'s for the best i\'d suggest closing this thread down. I\'d just rather forget this little episode and prevent it all from detracting from the site (for me). Cheers all of you. I never set out to have people publicly support me. I honestly thought the thread would close immediately. I feel happier in myself that a lot of the people here are totally at the opposite end of what DR has suggested. I can\'t pander to people and I never will. There may be people that like me and others who don\'t but that\'s beyond my control.
If we ever had a pint though, I can almost guarantee I\'d get on with nigh on everyone. In real life things appear different

As opposed to the holier than thou ones....
A REPLY!
Since Reverend has \"Had a go at me\" in public I feel that I should at least clarify something here.
I have received quite a number of complaints about reverend over the time I\'ve been a moderator here, but here\'s a question for reverend himself;
How many have been passed forward to you Phil? Perhaps one! Is that not correct ?
With all the complaints sent to me, I\'ve defended reverend\'s right to free speech no matter how little I think of the content of what he\'s posted, and all but one of the complainants have understood my stance in these discussions and we have resolved the issue privately and without any fuss.
Now I quoted Avicenna because he has pointed out, some people come to me in confidence, because they feel uncomfortable with trying to deal with someone who is as outspoken and quite often retaliatory in their responses as reverend and cannot handle the virtual confrontation that they feel will ensue, that confidence I will respect and defend.
Now when reverend PM\'d me I wrote back(via email) and explained my stance and the circumstances, in a reasonable manner as I always attempt to do, in fact if Phil had bother to read the email correctly he would see that I was taking quite a lighthearted view on the whole issue. As far as I was concerned this was a matter that we could have resolved privately and without a public attack on me.
But now I am being publically accused by Phil of a character assasination of him, and he has raised this thread in what I see as a deliberate attempt to gather his own support.
I normally never rise to a confrontation, but in this case it was a necessity to repond to such an attack against me.
