The Moderators reply was usually along the lines of "be patient, this will die down soon". These Moderation threads are a blight on the CCC board, but unfortunately they shouldn't be legitimatised (sp!) with their own Forum. There's worse to come, with new Moderation Elections approaching. Our current moderators have done a great job, they don't deserve the rubbish they are currently receiving, and I can't think who will want to take on the job next time. I truelly fear for the future of this place. No win I'm afraid, we've just got to skip what we want to skip.
