Okay, I have no clue what's going on here. But from the gist of posts, here's my 2 cents. Not meant to be inflammatory, just my humble opinion.
1> Any pictures posted without permission from proper authorities is illegal. Period.
It can mean repercussions to this site, the moderators that were negligent and potentially create many headaches for the site owners.
2> Every board I have been to, moderators are detached and while they do post, they stay out of conflicts, put personal feelings aside and follow rules of the forum. Period. To do otherwise, and show any form of preferential treatment is creating unnecessary issues, bad feelings among members and will lose you subscribers/members. Flirting with, siding with and egging on conflict is not something that should be seen on any forum. You lose respect for your position and authority.
I have not been here long, but so far I have only seen well-meaning members trying to guide, advise and assist other members. There are those that don't listen, and that is their choice. The QUESTION that remains for all of us, is once they have already made their choice, how can we now best assist them? Make the best of what some perceive as a bad situation. Such is the nature of the internet beast... are they telling the truth? Are they trolls? How often to you put yourself out there to assist, only to be shot down not just by a poster, but by management too?
And I have seen glimpses of gross ignorance, from... lets just say there is a lot of foot-in-mouth syndrome here by a few. People getting up in arms and upset, most incidences provoked by someone in a position of authority. I see it as an abuse of power, however, I don't pay for this site. It's free. There-in lies the key. If I so badly want things to run my way, I will have to start my own forum.
[b]As for behinderhereyes, a word about forum rules.[b] Be very careful how you tread the waters, watch rules closely. Don't pee in another mans pool.
And if you have problems that are technical in nature, please do not spam other members PM's for sympathy, assistance or attention. To do so, constitutes harassment. Something I take very seriously. You have a problem, on ANY forum, not just this one, take your complaints directly to the moderator in a private manner. You should never air them on the board, this is what the PM feature is TRULY FOR.
Thank you,
Grace
