Drunk spams do not technically count, they are of far too much humour value.

1. Me thinks Tass is trolling..
2. So??? The only thing that matters to us is if Ming is if Ming is biased (in a bad way) towards us/you/me. If that is the case, then you/Tass have a case and then you can still take it up with the owners I presume (who will back Ming no matter what probably anyway, but one can try )

It's obvious that you and Ming have differing views on what is humanly possible regarding bias towards friends.
Indeed, what is humainly possible. I admit I don't visit a dozen or more boards regulary but AFAIK this one is the best one in terms of moderation.

Don't forget that these people are doing this in their free/spare time and I for one don't even want to know how much time it consumes on a daily basis.

Not really, everyone involved (PTW demo 1&2)has given their permission to do so (and the owners had been notified upfront, besides, there is a difference, isn't there. )

Ah, we haven't in the ACDG. I'll have to keep that in mind for a possible ACDG3.

Yes, if you have a problem with a mod, send him a PM, but don't post. That way you are much more likely to get things straightened out, and the moderator has more leeway in what he can say.

That makes sense to me. Most of the posters who behave will get a little bit of leniency.

Ming, don't worry so much about people calling you 'baised'. All that means is that the complainer isn't getting any treats.
