as what?

Unmoderated bliss is possible but you need a set of posters who respect themselves and each other. You also need a broad mind and to not be easily offended. Can't see it happening here.

By definition, OT posters contribute little-nothing to the site content, so if they leave because of flames why would you care?
Because they may
a: grow bold and spam the forum with porn or waste server space with spam.
or
b: organize and invade the other parts of the forum en masse overwhelming Mark and Dan.

Moderators prohibit this evil organization
(ever wonder why 'club' threads are prohibited?)

hi ,

that is a good point !
maybe after a while all the people start to become "infected" with the good that aploton does , and after while , (maybe 200 years ) no-one becomes agitated or gets angry , ....

a lot of newbies are also afraid to post something because when they do ask or post something they "get it" , ....and it aint funny , ..example ; a person ask's for a Q , maybe the whole world shall now the A but for the person asking its a sincere Q , and then some people jump the guy and , well , .....there is no need at that moment as to say to the guy , ya stupid , ya dint know , where are ya from , .....

just an other reason we should keep mod's .

Dan and Mark , are the FAQ's changed lately , ..???

have a nice day
