This may be a really dumb question, bearing in mind that i read Butch's last thread but has he gone?? Gutted if he has - he actually did give helpful info and along with some others told it like it was without sugar coating everything!!
I need to check but im sure Steve P posted a couple of days ago too so thats all good!!

I can't say I know what kind of style she has or had to be honest

I clearly think enough people have left this forum already...it's not a happy place at all now....

No, that's not why I compared him to a brat. It's because he's constantly complaining about us not responding to his every whim instantly.

Sue may have taken 10 mins to delete the vulgarity he complained about, but is that any reason to whinge?!? Surely the woman is allowed to answer the phone or similar. We cannot be online all the time and do the best we can, but sometimes it does take a while for us to respond to reported posts.

He's complained about me not moving threads instantly before too, and according to his 'friends', has been whinging on another website about us not acting instantly on his reports too and accusing us of 'favouritism'.

I'm sorry but it reminds me of my daughter when she's in a strop - throwing toys out of the pram because instant attention isn't given, hence the brat comment!

I was very miffed on Sue's behalf, because once again he seems to be expecting us to jump as soon as he clicks his fingers.

But thank you for asking nicely FK, happy to explain.

It's really not that bad. Take a look at some of threads on the main canada page as there are some good debates going on up there (imo anyway). I reckon you are just looking with 18k+ post jaded boredom.

Right so lets clarify for everone..............

I moaned because a post by me was deleted because 'it was going off topic' 10-15 before the post I reported was edited, and NOT because it the reported post was not deleted immediately......get your facts right!

Perhaps you need to re read the rules and post within them..........YOU ARE A MODERATOR.

You had no need to post what you did in this thread, it was covered provately by Sue and I last night.................you have stirred the pot and if you read the entire thread you would understand the resentment that people are feeling towards to at the moment. Snide comments, derogatory comments to people in PM's are not what a moderator should be doing. Perhaps I should compare you to something derogatory?

Nope, 3 Canada mods but Iaink only has internet access at work, so he and I usually coincide timings wise (I tend to log off about 10pm, and he does around the same time when he leaves work). Plus the supermods don't act on 'minor reports', only major stuff. So it can sometimes be 8 hours before any mod will look at a report I'm afraid, just the nature of it.
