EH,
I agree with seven of nine on this. I, too, appreciate what you bring to the forums.

I hope you stick around as I enjoy your posts. I notice that this has been going on, on other forums I post on. Seems like people are losing it more often. I agree with Catherine that it's been crazy lately.

You mean on the forums??

My own opinion? You're one of the more rational mods, far as I've paid attention to it. Some seem to take offense (like it's personal against them) at the least little argument. I think it's healthier to let most arguments go on, and even get a bit disagreeable at times, so long as they don't degenerate to name-calling and my-god-can-beat-up-your-god. From what I've seen you usually call 'em about right.

Might be you're just spreading yourself too thin, what with all the out-of-state mods you've been subbing lately!!

Elkhunter,
"The only thing necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing."

When you do the right thing, for the right reasons, those who are only trying to forment unrest or pick a fight will attack and fight dirty.

I would be happy to sign a "Troll Hunting" license for your express use, the fee will be waived of course.

You do a good job, don't let the unruly few force you to make a decision that would only benefit those who would cause trouble and contribute nothing of value to this site.

Good Hunting!!

Our country is changing and I think it's causing stress. Change is stress. Period.

You're right -- and it's not just the change, it's the uncertainty about where all this change is taking us. It's polarizing people and frankly I think separating the wheat from the chaff in a way we haven't seen since the Civil War.

Thanks for the support.

Got a wake up call from a daughter asking me when I'd be willing to put in as much time with my grandkids as I do with CD. She was right, just took the brick to the side of the head to realize it.

I've had some nasty DM's lately. Not from you folks. But I mod'd 8 different areas. No more. I just can't do it. Won't do it. I'll stick with you guys though.

Now pulling out the grand kid card...well that is a tough one. You gotta hang here until all the hunting seasons are done!
Glad you are ok.

ElkHunter, I appreciate your posts. If it were not for some of your posts, I would not be able to relate to this forum. Don't stop!
