In effect I’ve found that to treat others the way you would like to be treated yourself is a good rule of thumb in life.
on this forum?....good luck!....ive been here a pretty long time and have seen things change as the forum has grown
ive been a moderator on a few forums, including getting the thankless task of 'GB Moderator' somewhere and it is not an easy job
always seems to a case of 'indifferent and ineffective' or 'vindictive fascist' depending on who isnt happy at that precise moment
its a hard job that is taken for granted by the members and this is a fairly active forum (you should try it on a forum that would often have 300+ members online at any one time....now that was hard!) so they will have plenty to do.........the rank and file have no idea what goes on behind the scenes.......i can imagine how busy the Moderator Lounge is
a Mod Team is simply a forum police force, doing as they see fit to keep things running smoothly.........and they want to come here and post and have fun and build models too but sometimes being a Mod is like having a real job!
