You also get a free ride because you are certainly no defender of the faith. In fact, just the opposite. So, you and blixa can relax on the same perch, at times trying to crap on the defenders' heads.

Yeah, those faithful Mormons neeeeeeever get free reign to spew their garbage on this forum!

No, you haven't. In fact, my skin is pretty thick. I don't take it all personally. But many of the defenders don't have thick skins. They leave. I think that when critics begin to insult defenders, the moderators should step in to cool down the personal name callings etc. Maybe this would get the defenders to stay a little longer.
It may surprise you to learn that you aren't the lone voice here. I discussed this issue for two solid weeks. Thanks for noticing the effort I made and the time I invested in doing so.
Not.
I appreciated the suggestions that both you and Marg made in that thread, Jersey Girl. I think that many may have missed it because it was started in the Telestial Forum:

True. But the bulk of suggestions I found really valuable were in the thread on Telestial that I referenced.
As a Moderating Team, we actually did discuss your search methods, and are implementing them.
We all, however, still rely on the Report Feature for things that we miss. I think that since all posters should take ownership for their posts that this is more than fair to posters and moderators alike.
So you see, why me, I took note and opened a thread to discuss just what you referred to. It's not like no one here notices or tries to help improve things.

Ah, I see. I was unaware. Then I retract everything I've written on the subject, anywhere within, on, or about this board.
Thanks, Hoops! We really are trying. It's just that we are human like everyone else, and we all have regular full-time jobs. The Moderator gig is volunteer! ;-)

She is not exactly a defender of the faith and because of this she is treated rather well. However, when we consider how the defenders are treated, well, it is like night and day. It comes with the turf but blixa also needs to see the board from the point of view of the defenders and not just from her perch from a lovely rooftop.
Hi why me,
While I'm certainly not a defender of the faith on this board like you, I do speak up for the Church or individuals when I feel that the criticism is unwarranted or unjustified.
The only person who has openly mocked me is DrCam. That's it. All of my other interactions on this board have been perfectly pleasant.
