Hi Andrew,

when posts are deleted, there's either notification here on the board or
notification by email where possible.
I say where possible because some members have fake email addresses in their
profiles!
As to my actions as moderator, another election is coming up soon. If I was
nominated and got voted back in, I guess you'd then be in the vocal minority
with your comments. If I wasn't re-elected, then you'd be proven to have some
valid points. Time will tell!

Regards, Graham.
