It might be time that StreetlightX be relieved of his duties as a mod. His posts consistently fail to model what I assume to be your goals for the forum.

Imagine in your mind the kind of thinker/writers you'd like to see more of here. Now imagine them realizing that StreetlightX is their editor. It just doesn't work.

I believe there's an ointment for that.

I have no beef with him personally. But just as I don't have the right personality for being a mod, neither does he, imho.

My last comment on the matter. Made my suggestion, said my peace, on to the next thread.

Well, to be frank, he says sensible stuff; it's just the way he says it that's the problem. I've known this for as long as I can remember and I still haven't got the hang of it. :sad: You can imagine...

SLX has deleted more HH content?

If so, we owe him our gratitude.

HippyHead, why are you posting this in the forums? You can personal message any of the moderators and state your opinion. This smacks of unnecessary drama, and a personal grudge.

It is difficult because all of us have our own opinions about what should be said or not.

I think that the main issue is of respect for others opinions.

Sometimes I get irritated by answers which are mere symbols on a device. But maybe that is my problem.

But I do think that the key issue is listening to others and engaging. We all have our weaknesses, whether it as lack or too many words.

If anything I am inclined to think that opening up discussion rather than closing it is better, but we all have to live with all possibilities whether it is banning to be the depths of hell or whatever region of existence we may go.

I try to live with all possibilities but if nothing else I am inclined to the view that sometimes the shortest responses with symbols are the worst. But maybe that is my prejudice...

Reply to Hippyhead If you're going to complain about someone publicly, I think you should be specific. I don't see any evidence of unmodlike comments over the past few days. In any case you could flag the comments that you don't like, or tell me about them privately.

Street is a very good moderator. So far, that outweighs his less obviously beneficial idiosyncrasies.

I'm closing this now.
