How about a moderator-free week?
Or even a moderator free day.
One week or day with no moderator interventions. Where we can truelly feel free to post what we want.
So how about it?

While all I can say is that people have repeatedly proved that moderation is indeed needed judging by the number of complaints, vote away for all I care, because if it was up to me...
HA HA HA HA... Dream on.
However, I have no intention of answering for the owners... so have fun. MarkG or DanQ can close this thread if they wish

As long as the mods could take actions on what was posted after that day it could be kind of fun... Moderator free day judgement day would come...

Actually I find that the site has been relatively moderator free recently.

I second Grrr... in case you haven't noticed, Dissident, the OT has been hardly moderated lately, thus making EVEN me post some less sensical stuff
Truly, I find my spam barrier has gone down due to a lack of Ming presence in the OT

Are you guys implying I should be deleting and closing MORE threads than I already do?

No, but I might be moderated even better if you were just showing up on threads more frequently.
The way it is now, you're not there at all. Now if you posted a bit now and again, everyone would know: aha!

It doesn't seemt that Ming or Markos have visited any threads other than the ones which have obviously been reported (such as GP's threads in the Play the World forum).

HA HA HA HA HA HA... just because I don't post in them, it doesn't mean I still don't read them. But I will admit I don't read every post in every thread... I would go brain dead if I did

Yeah, but to be fair, most of the complaints are about the moderators.

I'm running out of new angles. I think you've seen most of my tricks.
I can still get under Dan's skin. He's so easy!

For some reason I have the luck that my usual posting time is one in which all mods are offline.

It would be interesting to see what others would post were there no moderators for a day...

That is MLeonard for you Dissident. He does a good job in the OT.

I think a "mod free week" would probably be closely followed by a "poster free week".

I'm surprised this didn't get closed. Check out Ninten.com's forum to see what happens without moderators. The novelty's sort of worn off for me.

I think that they should have a "Free Spam Day", in OT, of course.

Absolutely! As long as you don't hurt anybody's feelings.
