Ecthelion. Ming doesn't have the power. It's his evil mouse, hovering over the ban button.

Some of you just aren't happy unless you have a cruel oppressor nearby to continually remind you that there is a line. I suppose that would explain some elections.

I kind of like the Kermit the Merciless motif. It strikes my surreal bone in a funny way. Especially if it involves flies.

hi ,

rumour control ;

to many people are scared , after a week of "rehab" they are so calm , so in favor of the mod's , .....

of course one could always "speculate" to have "democratic" elections that are held , every 6 months or ones a year , .....



have a nice day

in case you were wondering about the owners' opinion on this, the answer is that when you'll learn to behave as we like, we'll be moderator-free for eternity

Just a half-drunk question, but in all seriousness why do you care if people flame each other on the OT?

By definition, OT posters contribute little-nothing to the site content, so if they leave because of flames why would you care?

Newbies that could otherwise be valuable to the site might wander down to the OT accidently, maybe even post something. You see how people react to newbies in the OT when we have mods, imagine if they were unrestrained.
Them newbies would be gone quickly, and spreading bad word about 'Poly.
