I don’t know whether anyone could fairly and objectively moderate this forum, including myself. Rules can be conceived and written, but enforcing them would require constant monitoring and decision-making. The judgments would necessarily be very subjective. Some offenses would be so egregious

Ha! The obligatory positive exit comment. Ain't gonna happen. Barry is in charge here. And his saving grace is Buck and John, and Lawson, giving Barry an opportunity to burnish his self proclaimed reputation as a cult slayer, often by his gift of creating straw man arguments. It

hey, for a guy who seems to like to quantify things, I guess its convenient to ignore numbers when they go against ya. Take Richard away, and it's Barry, MJ, you, Buck and Lawson who make up bulk of posts, with Bharitu coming up the rear. The monthly posting totals haven't been this low

RE: [FairfieldLife] To whom should Rick give FFL?

James, If my analysis doesn't make sense to you, so be it. If you break it down, Buck makes his predictable posts, which Barry, Xeno, Salyavin and MJ respond to as it it's the first time they've heard it. This constitutes about 40% of FFL. Another 15% is MJ with his tired name

What's rather amusing, is that in a matter of ten minutes Edg you could start a new site, and install yourself as moderator, or recruit someone else. I think you could pull it off. Of course you do have the reputation of showing a lot of bluster, without much follow up. And of course,
