Rooster,
Truths are truths, no matter how poorly or eloquently written.
It funny to watch the lifespan of a mod.
They start out fresh, with ideals and morals. They are "moderators"
After time, they become jaded. Free/discounted sections, and the belief that the board can't survive without them. They have become "goderators"
The great fall. Believing they are untouchable, they finally hang themselves with their own rope. They are "ambassadors", or guests when things have gotten completely out of hand.
It's a great mod who can walk the tightrope, and not think he is god nor suffer total burnout.
I personally feel that the best mods are dead mods, even if we have to kill them first.

This board is about " US " !!! We are all members.
I cannot speak for all the mods throughout the country, but the five mods in Upstate New York all believe in the " US " philosophy.
While I am new to being a mod, I am not new to enjoying this hobby and have been participating for 15 plus years and participating on other sites for many years as well.
We are all adults on this site, both men and women, who are here to enjoy this lifestyle we have all chosen to participate in.
