“They’re trying to bait you.
Ignore them.”
Ya know, I really prefer my Admin Moderators to be the silent type, until it is absolutely necessary to jump in and truly moderate a thread. I’ve been here since 1998, and I have seen countless examples to back me up since then...until just recently when all of a sudden, we have a new Admin Mod who likes to do a lot more than just “moderate”.
I do not like it when a rogue Admin Mod jumps into a thread where they are not needed. For starters it is a cowardly act because we all know that Admin Mod is the keeper of the keys, and nobody really knows who the duty Admin Mod is.
Why? Because until very recently, the only words out of a good Admin Mod have been “Zot” and little else. It’s a good way to run things and I believe that policy, such as it is, has served this site very, very well; and I question whether you have the singular authority to make a change like that all by your lonesome, especially on a Sunday night when nobody else is apparently looking.
This is not the first, or second time I have brought this up either.
Whomever you are, if you want to participate in this thread, then I strongly suggest that you log in under your real FR identity and take your lumps like the rest of us. If you want to play Admin Mod, then do so quietly and stop distracting yourself by rolling on the floor with the dogs when you ought to be watching the entire site.
You’re supposed to be in charge. Act like it.

I agree, Bean Counter.
And removing lighthearted, innocuous comments from a thread that aren't offensive in any way (lots of them!) looks more like someone with an axe to grind than a forum moderator.
If you're someone who has a problem with us, I say log in under your FR name and deal with it head on.
Using the Mod cloak in a vindictive manner just looks makes you look cowardly.
I used to enjoy the Mods.
Now...there seems to be one I don't enjoy so much.
