Dave: I don't wish for this to become a flame thread, but I object to your hypocracy (mod or not). Your TOS quote:

"When creating a new thread, please ensure the thread title is descriptive of the content of the post."

My response in post #5 referred you back to a post of your own titled:

"Manna from heaven....."

Which conveys what information?!

And in #19 you state:

"..we all must live by the site rules"

Yes....except for 'Wanna-be' mods, perhaps?

I though these days Dave was a 'wanna not be' mod? I think he's a bit like an old blue heeler I once saw. Old gray, arthritic and retired from active duty but still couldn't help chasing the cattle when there was a chance.

Well there you go Dean- not too sure why you picked just that one, but there it is. Its an old saying, or throw away line. If you would like that changed then press the little Red Cross on the right of the post and report it.

I suppose it could be referring to the ancient order of Dog worship, having a TABulous time with zealots who are over illuminated, but that would be drawing a thin line wouldn’t it. Not too sure of the actual Hebrew wording, but it’s the Anglosaxonised version I was using. I never mentioned politics, never mentioned religion either.

as for the moderating - yes i did it for a while, was enjoyable, taxing and on occasions had me blaspheming behind the scenes, but on the whole we tried to keep an even keel. Travelled too long on the poopdeck, wellies were full, so enjoying the break. But the smell of the salt air you never forget

Yikes!

'Manna from heaven' is referenced in the Bible & Koran

(<Eeek! Relegious content alert!!>).

One of those tomes apparently suggests removing the log in one's eye before pointing out the splinter in someone else's.....

Dave: let's nod sagely at each other, shake hands and move on!
