Hello, I am new to this particular website, but no stranger to forum boards across many different subjects. I have done a fair amount of reading on this website and compared the many locations. I am concerned at the level of moderation and maturity in which the New York section in managed. As a traveler I may find this forum useful if I could depend on the integrity of those running it. I have heard very good things from friends in other parts of the states, but the reading in this section has me puzzled. Maybe it has already been addressed in a post from the owner or a senior staff member, if so please link me. Senior members stick around for a reason, but can't trust someone just because they have a lot of posts or reviews. I am sure eccie wants to grow, but this section seems to be more of an "STD" to the reputation i have heard about. Could a staff member please make a public post reassuring new members like me that you are on top of things? OR point me where this post has already been made. Thank You.

You start off questioning the staff's integrity , and then end by saying that you would like to see a post by the staff that they are on top of things. You do realize that you are asking someone who you say has no integrity to post that he has integrity. Does that make sense to you? If a person you accuse of having questionable integrity vouches for himself, you are satisfied?
Another point of cluelessness would be that you want this statement to come from a Senior Staff Member or owner. You do realize that one of our current Mods is an Administrator of this site ie. a senior staff member. You want him to vouch for his own Moderation so you can rest at ease. Another Mod is one of the most senior members in Gman.
If you want to criticize the Mods, then that's your prerogative, but to ask that Chica make his 23,000th post a personal reply to you on day 1 of your membership that he has things under control seems pretty silly.
