Interesting metaphor...Thanks for your kind words. <br /><br />Interesting metaphor with the "moderational obstacle course." I haven't had many issues with the moderators in the last couple of weeks, with only one post not making the cut. Of course, this does require a fair bit of self-censorship. At this point, I have a pretty good idea where the boundaries are.<br /><br />I keep trying, mainly in order to keep the lurkers aware that the issues aren't quite so black and white as many at CD portray them.Wickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00921053118952031662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8027748223200353371.post-78386354270430797992009-04-30T21:09:00.000-05:002009-04-30T21:09:00.000-05:00Hello Wick,
I enjoy your blog very much. Further,...Hello Wick,<br /><br />I enjoy your blog very much. Further, I admire your patience navigating the moderational obstacle course. Personally, I have decided to stop posting after the moderator decided that my request for substantiation of a claim was considered a provocation. <br /><br />Good luck posting and I am looking forward to more well written posts.<br /><br />Dietmar (aka dietchess)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17716546815937587295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8027748223200353371.post-45296746722256633502009-04-19T16:53:00.000-05:002009-04-19T16:53:00.000-05:00Jack:

I've been...Sorry about all those problems, Wick!!!<br /><br />I've been doing taxes and have been out of commission for the last month or so. Since the 15th. I've been gradually getting back into the swing of things again. Will try to beef up the moderation of that forum.<br /><br />(I am one of the moderators over there.)<br /><br />Sounds to me like you've got a legitimate complaint.<br /><br />My problem as a Moderator is that I value freedom of speech; I don't like the tone of the comments there, either. Do you delete stuff just because of tone?<br /><br />My problem with the USCF's moderation is that they've been too heavy handed and I don't want to be that way.Jack Le Moinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01800312583017921274noreply@blogger.com
