Because I have seen Moderators unjustly critisized too much;
Because when I have work (self employed) I only log on once per week;
Because, as has been pointed out to me here often before, I am far too
intolerant;

I am wondering just who will accept nomination for Moderators, this place has
been warming up towards big fights lately.  And Moderator voting will be suspect
as the biggest pests come in various guises, and "Vote Stuffing" is the latest
toy for these idiots.

I was sincerely shocked & dissappointed when "Vote Stuffing" spoiled the World -
Kasparov game.  Thousands of kiddies had seen more analysis & learnt more about
chess over those few months than ever before. These were kiddies who normally
sat down to play blitz or friendly games discovering the true intricasies of
chess.  And childish idiots just had to spoil it.

Back on topic:  There are similar people who would like to see CCC destroyed.
They come in here and try to provoke the moderators & those held in high esteem.
 They troll & they insult.  They cut their juvenile posts from here & post them
in the Newsgroups to try to validate their views to a wider audience.

This next Moderator nominations & elections is a very dodgy issue.  How
improbable is it that we could get 2 or 3 "Sean's" as validly elected
moderators?

What's to be done?
I Dunno, & I certainly don't want any responsibility for it all.
