Other than 'technical' sort of suggestions I see nothing else....I would like to see some suggestions on how to improve this board....now some may think I am being pre-sumptous since I am a newby but I have a long history of association with many message boards...and I know a thing or two about how message boards need to be run.

I am not going to get specific regarding this board...but just say that in general what makes a board are the moderators.....which I think is pretty obvious.

I came here from a board where you could have actual conversations with mods on any subject with no reprisals....unfortunately they did not listen to any suggestions but at least they listened.


What I see on most boards(not singling out this one)is a very hostile relationship between mods and posters....and this should not be the case....but sadly it is true....too many arrogant mods on the majority of boards....though it is understandable how they get that way....they are not paid and they have to put up with a lot of crap and over time they get a very hostile attitude.

Oh. You again. Still doing hit and runs trying to stir the pot? Inquiring minds and all.

OK, so don’t “give them crap” to increase their hostility.

Your logic is mind bending.

Please tell me more things that make no sense...like the above in bold.

Maybe it's just you.
 
- Don't care what other boards do or do not do.
- Have had discussions with mods on threads here with no issues
- OP, read the Forum Rules and follow them.
- Have been a member for many years. Yes, I have had a few warnings. The mods were correct in what they hit me with.

Almost every single time I've been dinged, I knew it was coming. I was ready for it, and it was worth it.

If anyone took it that way they were mistaken.

Some people are allergic to the truth....hope that is not you.

To get respect, one must earn respect.

If you feel disrespected maybe it's just because you haven't earned it.

Did I say I have been 'dis-respected' ???

Obviously the statement refers to everyone....not just one person or one group.
