[QUOTE=Colibri] Except you evidently expected some kind of agreement with your OP. You obviously didn’t expect it to come back and bite you on the ass the way it has. Now you are whining because the thread didn’t go the way you expected it to. One doesn’t have to be a “lap dog” of the administration to disagree when a moderator is pitted for some completely trivial perceived offense. If you are going to be a crybaby when people disagree with you in the pit, you really should stay out of it. [/QUOTE] \*\*Colibri \*\* is correct. It doesn’t even have to be about a Mod- many PITings come back to bite the OP on the ass here. Always have, always will. Get used to it, dude. ---

[QUOTE=Giraffe] He’s right. No matter how monumentally, unbelievably, jaw-droppingly stupid the complaint, if it’s about the mods then this is where it goes. Sure, most people wouldn’t even bother starting threads on such a painfully trivial and unimportant pet peeve, figuring that a lame, weak-ass, should-have-died-on-the-table, couldn’t-be-less-important complaint of this degree of suckitude won’t be worth the time to read let alone write. But if such a thread is to be posted, it should be posted here. Yep, I agree with **Carnick** 100%. [/QUOTE] It’s mod responses like this to lame pittings of mods and admins that keeps me coming back I tell ya. Love it **Giraffe** , absolutely love it. Wait a sec, you have mod cred to maintain here…umm, you are a lowlife sleaze of a mod and should resign at once, your posts are a worthless waste of bandwidth! (bah, I’m no good at this) ---
