In regards to "how are we doing"

I'd just like to say that I don't feel that your moderating is fair and balanced. I feel that the moderators are very heavily weighted towards one direction and don't allow for discussion that might "rock the boat." I also feel that the moderators are arbitrarily moving posts to areas where they do not belong, just because they want to hide them away and not cause a stir or hurt any feelings. If that's the case, just delete the thread. But oh, then you'd have to explain why you did that and since the thread didn't break any rules, well, I guess that would be hard to do.

I'm also tired of moderators going into threads and editing out the bits and pieces they don't like.

This one I don't agree on. Being a moderator is a tough and thankless job. There is literally no pleasing anyone so as a moderator you have to do what you believe is RIGHT. And, when I was a mod, if we questioned what we thought was right, we asked other mods for their take on the issue. Very rarely did one person decide to take what could be a controversial action without some support from the other mods.

Just my 2.5 cents.

The rules are the rules, they are here to protect everyone on the forum to keep this a place where the majority of the members can feel they belong to a place where they can discuss their passions without being attacked/called names, limiting some of the uncalled for behavior at this point.

Moderating is to uphold the rules in place.

There are many other forums on the world wide net, maybe some are a better fit then others for certain personalities. That is why people tend to move around and find their happy place where the behavior they tend to exhibit is welcome.
