No chip on my shoulder. Just commenting on an asinine method of moderation in the examples that were brought to this thread. Who was doing it matters not. In which thread the moderation was done matters not. The idea of special protection or changing someone's post to be more "respectful" is the issue for me.

Fortunately the problem has been solved, although as evident in your continued posts on this thread and your vitriol on other threads, this is still a major issue for you.

Oh you bet Marg. I only posted here because I have a chip on my shoulder. Right. :rolleyes:


Sorry. You are not really that important to me.

As for following the thread in question, how do you know what I follow and do not follow? Just because I have not posted there does not mean I am not reading the thread.

People really do have an opinion and can voice it without it being tied to anything to do with you. I hate to burst your apparent inflated self importance but I would have made the same comment is it was about Liz giving preferential treatment.

My only comment here was that I do not think anyone should have special treatment. That is it. No attack on you or anyone else. No agenda to give you a whack due to past disagreements. None whatsoever.

There was no special protection, but because you haven't followed the thread you aren't aware of it.

Look some people on here are morons, and they like to throw their 2 cents in when they really don't know what the heck they are talking about. There is a lot of that that goes on here, because message boards such as this it's easy to do.

Fortunately the problem has been solved, although as evident in your continued posts on this thread and your vitriol on other threads, this is still a major issue for you.


Like you aren't showing any vitriol. Oh you mean my comments to Ray...yes well I figured I'd held back long enough, but of course you didn't follow the discussion I had with him and the stuff he spewed out. Being as I quit mod'ing I didn't feel obligated to restrain.

Explain to me the details of how someone got special protection. Explain to me what was done to protect them.

I based my opinion on your very own words in the beginning of THIS very thread:

marg back on Page 1 wrote:Yes, the answer is Dale, enjoys preferential treatment due to poor health, along with his expertise which is of value to the issues presented in the thread.

I do not want him wasting time replying to unwarranted cheap shots thrown his way.

[snip]

My goal is to allow the discussion to progress with as little disruption vis moderation or from posters as possible, and without unwarranted attacks on individuals with Dale getting preferential treatment to an extent due to special circumstances noted above.


Your stated intention was for preferential treatment. And the example of changing "Danny Boy" to "Mr. Peterson" is quite evident in whatever context. I don't have to read anything else in order to form my opinion, contrary to any assertions you make. Get over your self-important self.

Oh noes! More ad homs!

I don't care Marg. I see how you are as well, Over bearing. Know it all, Spiteful when it gets hot, always attacking someone as not well reasoned or as wondrous of a critical thinker as you think you are.

This is why I rarely engage you. You are a bore.

The fact that I made one comment on this thread and you made it all about you speaks volumes.


So stick that in your pipe and smoke it Miss rational.

Oh my hell woman! Get over yourself. My comment was in response to your remarks where you said yes you did give Dale special privileged and why. That is it. I made one small comment that I disagreed with that. That is it! Nothing else. I would have said it no matter who it was. The fact that it was little ole you had nothing to do with it. I was not rude, I did not call you stupid or biased, I did not recommend your removal as a moderator nor do I now.

Let it go marg. Life really is too short. And it really may be all we have.

This is why your little 2 cents in this thread is worthless. You aren't offering advice or criticism regarding moderation of the Book of Mormon thread, you are voicing your chip on your shoulder, anger whatever. Yes I am overbearing. And when people such as yourself don't like it , I think good I'm doing something right.

You are free to your opinion. And of course it is if anyone disagrees with you it is worthless.

You are simply wrong Marg. Now not only do I have a chip but I am angry as well? What a piece of work you are.

Yes I am overbearing.


You are much more than over bearing.

And when people such as yourself don't like it , I think good I'm doing something right.


I don't really care. I am simply pointing it out.

You are actually quite amusing.

Continue to make a fool of yourself.
