In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold.

The moderation team would like to announce that Tashah has decided to step down as moderator. This was Tashah's second term as mod, and overall, she was a mod longer than anyone else on the team, save vauge. Many of the things that we may take for granted, or things that happen behind the scenes, Tashah was responsible for. She updated the staff list and worked tirelessly on the Forum Rules, both with wording and organization. She also spent many evenings banning spammers. We will certainly miss her.
 
She once responded to a post of mine and I'm counting it as flirting with a hot chick.
 
The writing on the Forum Rules is excellent. This lady obviously deserves a thank you -- and some rest.
 
Tashah was a truly exceptional moderator who did much to help make DP an outstanding forum for political discussion. Participating at DP, discussing issues and ideas with her in the forums, and serving with her on the moderating team was a great pleasure. I will miss her and everything she brought to DP.
 
Thanks for all your work to make this a more civil place Tashah. You've been a great friend (as much as anonymous people on internet boards can be ). Did vauge give you your moderator retirement watch yet? I'm still waiting on mine.
 
The grass is greener on this side of the mod fence.

; )
 
This news makes me sad. I would have very much liked to have had the opportunity to work alongside Tashah and be able to call on her obvious expertise as a moderator.

I hope she is well and comes back someday soon.
 
I will truly miss Tashah as a moderator and thank her for the forum rules, but most importantly will she still update her avatars ???
 
Thank you, Tashah! You gave me my first infraction a couple years ago so you hold a close place in my heart.

You will be missed. <3
 
Well, poo. Hope she sticks around to post, at least. She seems to have been a good mod, though I never had a run-in with her.

the good guys are falling like rocks.
 
I'm sad I wasn't able to serve as a mod along side you Tashah. You've worked hard for DP, and I applaud you, and hope you stick around as a regular poster.
 
There is no way I am going to like this thread. Tashah was my favorite mod, and I hate to see her step down.

Tashah, best wishes to you, and I hope you stick around as a regular member. Chai!!
 
Thanks Tashah. Hope everything goes well for you.
 
As it appears, upon perusal, that no one has been very specific... allow me.

The mideast forum section was a cesspool of trolling, baiting, nonsense and youtube-comment-level discourse. Tash was instrumental in bringing some semblence of civility to that section. The forum's efforts in this regard have been contentious. She caught a lot of crap for that work, but without her DP would have been just another debate site with a worthless mideast section. She brought a level head and a reasonable moderating touch; also, knowledge, perspective and even understanding to an otherwise black-hole of internet topics. I didn't always agree with her and Lord knows I got my fair share of warnings/infractions, but I always thought she was fair and her motive was to help produce quality debate.

I have nothing of any value whatsoever to add to this thread.
 
What about the other threads?
 
:tink:

Thanks Tashah
 
Thank you Tashah! I hope you are not leaving. I only interacted with you on the music thread, but I always appreciated your posts there.

Take care! :)
 
Considering the flack I've seen her deal with (99% of it related to the ME forum) during her tenure, I'd say that a well-deserved break is perfectly reasonable.

Or even permanent hiatus.


Good luck Tashah, we'll miss your moderation.
 
goodbye tasha
