Sorry, I still don't think you got my point.  As an example, I don't think Callaway is an internet junkie, but she reinforces positive behaviours and is here on a daily basis.




No. I see that. You're missing mine, which is that she wouldn't
be online enough to serve the purpose which the additional mods
were selected for.

Grooming children?   Looking real cool with the hip groove and so into your sexuality?

That's all I see the mods are there, sorry Cal.  But Alex has just done a piss poor effort at selection.  What is worse is that they have a parents thread there and none of the parents are appalled at the ridiculous crap that goes on at the site.

Whingy yanks.

I don't think that anyone's actually doing this.

Some smash at my dancing? Hey, sex is something of an obsession with me,
and someone's got to moderate that forum.

That's not all of them. Much as I disagree with others, I don't think
that there's a single one whom you could level these types of charges
fairly against, other than me. Frankly, I think that they are guilty of far
WORSE things, having to do with overmoderation. Maybe you just need to
spend less time in the adult section of the site.

Re grooming children...don't play dumb lady with me.

On the second point, no, not referring to your dancing, referring to how you pretend you are so cool, much like Graelwyn does.  I think you are both show ponies when the mood hits you.

On the last note, no, I don't go to the site at all any more except when the shit happened with Graelwyn.  If you are a Mod, you will see that I have not posted or visited anywhere there of note for quite a few months, so don't come over here trying to say all I do is spend my time in the adult section over there, because that's bullshit.

Are you a male Graelwyn?  Because you are really becoming a fucking pain in the ass.  And why the fuck are you coming back and forth trying to cause shit anyway?

Oh...and your main event thread calling Machine1 out was so riveting...you could have sold tickets.

Get a life Cal...it's becoming old now.

so the argument is:  it is not the mods responsibility to act as a role model because they have real life problems as well.

the solution becomes: WP needs to stop calling itself a support site.  because it is reinforcing bad behaviour and enabling.

Being a Mod to me (and I could be wrong) means that you are not airing your dirty laundry on a constant basis.  Much the same as a good manager in the workplace...you have someone who understands your issues, may occasionally say 'yes, I have been in that situation' but doesn't come on in a full episode of rant and expect you to help them pick up the pieces.

A strong leader basically.

i agree with you.  but i think that we don't necessarily need good role models here, because we don't claim to be a support site.

WP does claim to be a support site, and it caters to very young people.  their leaders should be strong role models, or at the very least not air their dirty laundry.

basically, the need is based upon what you claim to be.
Misunderstood.
