You choose your moderators every 6 months, if you don't like them you vote them out in 6 months. Anything more complicated than this is totally unapropriate and would do it a great deal of harm. I don't intend to follow a long list of your rules and regulations either, let's just keep it simple. I didn't come here for this kind of nonsense, I came here to relax. >Moderators also need to be moderated other wise we end up not with moderators >but Dictators who answer to no one. I think this need to be fixed up now and not >let carry on further without any firm action being taken. Who will moderate the moderators of the moderators? Come on, this group is simple and doesn't need more policemen. I'm sick and tired of the constant dictator speech. Our moderators are not dictators and have no significant power. All they can do is remove a post or excuse a member on a group that is sponsored by a commercial interest and who ALWAYS has final say anyway. Any complicated governement you would like to set up is just pretend anyway and only has the power ICD chooses (and has the right) to give it. But who is going to control their power to dictate you'll probably ask next. >I read the election posts from the three moderators and they seems to indicate >that they would not be strict. Well I see they take my view and are running this >forum with an iron dictator fist. By removing someones post? Give me a break. >So if you will do nothing then that is what you all shall have on here, and if >will have to be accepted by all. Or you can revolt and remove the moderators and >have fresh elections. Hello? I thought ICD made these decisions. Are you going to approach the homes of the moderators and oust them from power by force in the name of righteousness? Chill out please. >If there is enough complaint about moderation then a poll has to be taken >whether or not to elect new ones.
