I don't know if i'm taking this the wrong way
, but if the moderators of this board are being asked to justify themselves, then I would like to say that if there are any problems in Loaf Camera Action or Off Topic, they are dealt with.Thankfully there have not been too many problems in Off Topic (and none in LCA).
I watch my forums, and if there is a problem, I will monitor the situation to see wether if what is being said is friendly banter or genuine flaming.If I feel things are going too far, or if I receive an official complaint I will act.
Speaking out as a mod on another forum would be way out of line.Other forums have other mods who are perfectly capable running their forums the way they see fit, and I am not willing to presume to tell them how to do their job.
My opinion is that everyone has the right to their own opinion.Just as everyone has the right to disagree.When people resort to insults they not only make MLUKFC an uncomfortable place to visit, they undermine their own arguments.Making a coherent point with examples is one thing, but acting like a loony will only result in you being treated like a loony.It seems to me that those who throw insults round do themselves harm more than anything else.
It also strikes me that there are those who seem to disagree/agree with certain people on matter of principle.I think this is wrong.I am personally happy to agree with a person on one thing and disagree with them two minutes later on another topic with absouloutly no hard feelings.There is a world of difference between agreeing with a person,and what the person is saying.
