I’ve been visiting this place less and less because it’s simply too complicated to understand the rules. You guys know that you have most of us by the short-hairs, because we have friendships here, that are vulnerable to being severed by being banned from this board. This has led to obvious abuse and manipulation by the moderators here. I mean it, in the most constructive way; please get some clarity and consistency in how this place is run.

This is ATMB.

I understand that this quote is from the "Can moderator ignore the rules …blah, blah? Well, they certainly have ignored the decorum!
