A revelation

[billvon 3,132]

I had a revelation here a few minutes ago -

I'm the primary moderator on this forum, and I post my opinions here pretty frequently. That means that everyone who voluntarily visits this forum agrees with and supports my opinions! If they did not, they would (of course) leave.

Cool.

So, what are your plans for Easter?



(Oh, that was so good)

I dunno bill, I could swear that one or two people may have already denounced you even if they do continue to show up occasionally.

Denounced. (or cursed him) LOL.

I hold it true, whate'er befall;
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.

I received an email a few months ago that suggested the forum name be changed from 'Speakers Corner' to the 'Bill von Novak Aggrandizement Forum'.

Sounds like a good idea!

And if they don't agree with your opinions ... they probably get warned or banned.

So you're the Pastor of the Speaker's Corner Church of Holy Self Righteousness?

You are right, all the people who do not agree with you should stay away, and form another website.

One that is more fair and even, does not possess people who are in protected classes, and can actually voice their own opinions and or concerns without being denounced by you and other mods, as being uneducated or unintelligent.

For once you are right.

Seems to me that blowhards from every quarter get their say around here.

But what about those of us who are addicts, bill? It's a sickness - a disease - and we can't help it.

I'm guessing that when there is more reality than humor, one tends to focus on the reality.

I find it astounding how many people are willing to whine about what they see as heavy-handed moderation in a frickin' skydiving forum. If it were my forum, I'd moderate for grammar .

Boy, that'd sure piss people off

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

[jakee 1,611]

Depends - where do you stand on split infinitives and ending sentences with prepositions?

Isn't Speakers Corners the place where the only thing we as a group can agree on, is that we disagree with each other? My mother was right, I would have been more successful competing in the Special Olympics than I am to be spending too much time here.


All hail the almighty shamalamadingdong!!!

Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

[wmw999 2,603]

The blithe writing of a sentence like that is an abomination up with which I, as a moderator, shall not put.

Or apoplectic, depending on how much the moderators have disciplined you, I suppose.
