> Oh, except we can’t. Because according to **TubaDiva** , these threads aren’t appropriate for ATMB either, for some reason. “Bashing each other,” I guess. I’m not seeing it - I’m seeing concerned members raising issues about board moderation that, as per usual, are and will be ignored.

What’s funny is that for all the heavy handed, ham-fisted moderation in ATMB, there’s never, _ever_ any moderation of the obvious threadshitting that goes on by the “Mods must never be critizised types” who enjoy shitting up ATMB threads so they’re closed.

OP: Mod X was wrong to give this mod note and it really pissed me off.

Threadshitting: Being a mod on this board has got to be one of the most thankless tasks on the planet. You should be grateful she (or any mod) deigns to spend the time wading through the shitstorm of delicate egos and adult tantrums they have to deal with. If you get a mod beat down (and I’ve had a few) take your whipping and move on, don’t stand there howling and complaining and smearing snot all over your shirt like a tard. It’s only a message board. It doesn’t clothe you or feed you, do your dishes or mow your lawn. If you hate the modding that much get another board.

Not Threadshitting: I think Mod X was wrong for mod noting you as you should have been officially Warned.

I’ve never once seen a mod asskisser warned for threadshitting.
