Take note

I posted a topic about "fashion in heaven" inspired by my wife watchng some fashion show.

The topic's title was changed from "Fashion in Heaven" to "I wear dresses".

I am assuming it was changed by a Mod.

It is rather amazing that some mod over there has such a childish sense of humor and no sense of fairness (I can't change it).

I also suppose that the implication might be that my mere mentioning of the word "fashion" is, well, gay.

Whatever.

I am stunned at the low mindedness.

Imagine is the mods here had changed the title of Dr. Peterson's posts to "I love sweaty men".

We are above that here and their complaints about this board have forever been put into perspective.

It's changed back and now "Nemisis" says the responsible party has been "sacked".

Strange happenings.
*Scratching my head.*

At least they had the maturity to address the problem. (Although the "sacked" bit is a Monty Python reference, so it's difficult to know how literally to take it.)

Perhaps it portends your imminent banning. Don't get too attached to "Tarksi".

Wouldn't you love to know the identity of the sacked mod. Was that picture posted by nemesis meant to be a sock puppet? It looked like a camel, but that made no sense.

It soundslike something McGregor would do, but who would make him a mod?

Incidentally, I had something similar happen to me on an atheist blog. One of the admins started posting under my name after I ripped on the lot of them and only desisted when I threatened litigation.

For goodness sakes, it's April Fools.

Ah, I forgot about that.
It still sucked.

Whatever the title, it was a fun discussion. Sorry if I went over the top on my soapbox in the end.
