    So there must be a special moderators' language that the rest of us don't use. :smile:

    And we cannot read comments by those who felt badly treated in the past because they don't post anything now!

    This Forum, and the whole site, is excellent - whatever happens I will not change my opinion on that - but my recent 'discussion' here has shown the cracks.

    Come on everybody, this is just a forum. You need to stop letting it rule your lives; the admins live in your minds 24/7, not by their choice I am sure. II guess the long periods of quarantine may have something to do with people’s unnatural attention to forum “governance”. Give it a break; you will live happier lives if you do.

    Well said, rest assured your not alone in having posts deleted. One of the reasons it's not often I bother with this forum. The some power above do not agree with your comments nobody will ever have chance to read them

    Technically there is one "super admin" (server/database, main site and forum level), one forum admin, and one global moderator.

    I tend to agree with Notmyrealname on this. A Moderator has a fine line to follow and must be impartial in making decisions such as this and that quoted reply, in my opinion, falls short of what is expected. I also wonder who is responsible to who? If there is more than one Moderator? It is clear here that is the case! Who has control of the Moderators? Is there a senior Moderator who can moderate the moderators?

    Your excellent piece is supported by PMs I have received today, all of which shall remain confidential. Too many people, many very good contributors, have left the Forum for reasons you outlined above.
