From [this closed thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=646654)…

[QUOTE=TubaDiva]  
You’re dragging your arguments from the original thread into this one and that is not appropriate for ATMB.

Take this argument elsewhere, please.

I’m closing this thread.

I’m glad to see that you weren’t trying to stop the debate about moderator conduct, or you would have said that’s what you were doing.

I was told by a moderator to bring concerns about moderator conduct to this thread. I can understand you not wanting old threads rehashed here. But in this case tomndebb made various charges in the thread I was posting about. Large portions of that original thread are relevant to his conduct. In order to debate whether his conduct was inappropriate, we have to discuss who had the valid postion, who was making statements relevent to the op and who wasn’t, etc.

Basically, this:

> So, since no one could validate their position, and tomndebb still claimed I was wrong, (and as long as that situation holds,) and since they stubbornly refused to admit they didn’t have a valid position but tomndebb said I was the stubborn one, and since I was the one showing how my points were related to the OP and tomndebb still said I was the one hijacking the thread… It appears clear that tomndebb is incapable of determining who has a logical position, who is being stubborn, who is being relevent, who is hijacking, etc. That makes him incapable of fulfilling his duties as a moderator. It appears that he is incompetent. And that that incompetence lead to his corruption when he noticed that his posting of his opinion on my logic was irrelevent and he used his moderator position to try to silence my defence so that his baseless charge could stand… And that is the premise of this thread.

Almost everything I posted was directly relevant to a charge tomndebb made that I was showing was in error. By closing down that debate, you essentially have to admit the conclusion of the above paragraph.

This will end well.

This is my favorite part: where Perry Mason bores the killer into confessing on the stand.

In real life Perry Mason would have his mouth duct taped by order of the judge halfway through most of his cases.

Just because you do not like the outcome of a situation, that does not entitle you to another bite at the apple.

It has been proven to everyone’s satisfaction but yours that your charges have no merit.

I’m closing this thread.
