Even though I'm extremely turned on right by that great kiss Jersey, Uuhhhh, not everyone is interested in a call for mods. Personally, I think Dr shades is doing a fine job. After he started this thread, things have calmed down tremendously. Basically, we've talked it out on our own and he's the one who let us do that. He turned this place around without even having to post more than two times! That's the sign of a professional moderator!! Awesome job Dr Shades. You have shown once again why you're the gold standard when it comes to moderating boards. Screw Nemisis and MD&D!! That guy is a dicktator😁. I hope you read this Nemisis.
Listen with your eyes because I'm not going to say this twice.

What we are asking for is a restoration of the mod team that this board has always had. This isn't a new concept. It's not a new proposal. It's reestablishing the community NORMS.

I don't need lessons from you or anyone else about the way Shades handles things. Trust me, I don't. I know what he does. I know why he does it. I've got well over 15 years watching him work. Lessons aren't needed.

Just to emphasize, being without a moderator or moderators is an aberration for this board. People are simply asking for a return to normalcy. If it doesn't happen, the next meltdown is just around the corner.

Human nature.
Exactly so. This board has been online for more than 15 years. It's been equipped with a mod team from the start and was still equipped with a scaled down mod team until we migrated to this new board after the previous board became totally FUBAR.

When the last moderator standing decided to get out of Dodge with no notice.

Let me make another run at this and then I am done responding to people who refuse to read.

The need for and call for mods has already been established. The OP of the thread you are now commenting on represents an understanding with agreement. It's an if/then contract. The agreement is the ONLY issue this thread was ever attended to discuss.

Try to keep up. Reading is fundamental and thinking doesn't hurt.

Frankly, based on what I know of EA, I would bet on death as opposed to abandonment. Is there anyone who has any information about what happened?

I have it on good word that EA is perfectly fine.

I certainly hope that's true and would take a load off my mind.

Well rest well. He's up and moving unless he croaked in the past 5 minutes.

I’m outside of my home state at a convention and haven’t been able to read this whole thread yet.
Please tell me its not a furry convention....
Heh, quite the opposite! It’s a law enforcement convention.

Law enforcement is still a thing in this country?
