Many of us have had small issues with the moderators here at times, but I want to call them out in a positive way for monitoring new threads and closing ones that are meant to cause conflict and are not really related to audio.
it would be if it was a posted rule AND my comments were actually off topic. Let alone if all off topic comments were treated equally.
In my case, it was a lame, made up rule.
If there was such a rule, I would still be confused though because there are so many productive, long-running conversations here where a comment could be relevant, educational, helpful and still strictly speaking off topic for the OP.
Of course if someone was talking about hair loss treatment product or selling bitcoin, in thinly veiled ads, that would be annoying. But how many times are people talking about fast cars or memories from their youth with vintage gear when the topic has nothing to do with those.
But I can move on, there are way bigger problems to worry about...
Maybe I've just drifted off but this is most boring 2-3 years this site has ever seen. Maybe I' prefer a little entertainment. The spending part comes without sense.
I had a lot of issues with moderating, deleting my civilized comments ... quoting non-existing rules or rules that absolutely did not apply, ignoring my questions ...
I am very surprised to see this. I've always found the moderators here to be thoughtful and responsive. Who have you dealt with here at A'gon? What "non-existent riles" have they quoted?
... and leaving disgusting, spiteful comments in the thread ...
That shouldn't happen. You can flag those for deletion.
I think the mods here do an excellent job. I’ve never had an issue with them. Most of those who complain about them aren't really here to talk about audio or music, but have another agenda.
I couldn't disagree more. I had a lot of issues with moderating, deleting my civilized comments and leaving disgusting, spiteful comments in the thread and quoting non-existing rules or rules that absolutely did not apply, ignoring my questions, deleting comments about moderating, etc. and I DO NOT have an agenda. You can't have your cake and it too. You either moderate in the most controversial manner and just call it what it is, or you moderate fairly and APPLY THE RULES you created.
X SEE BULLYING ! lol I USE GRAMERLY IT FIXES MOST OF THAT FRANKLY NOONE CARES ABOUT THAT NONSENSE ANYMORE i type fast do not worry about a few errors this is not an English class ! my vocab is above 90 % of users as per Grammarly !
you are being far too picayune , regards
have not noticed any spam tho i see someone said one of my posts was spam -hardly ! someone did not like one and asked it be deleted i did not see why but did delete it . it was certainly was strongly related to the topic but i guess the tribe has spoken there is a narrow interpretation here unlike other places ! so i deleted and apologised in a PM to OP
WWJD just turn the other cheek ! some just not very nice people here troublemakers who will falsely accuse you .
sad one of the 10 things you should not do ( bear false witness ! )
I admin a dozen pages on FB and no bullying issue on them
spam is obvious IME like a Bitcoin pitch in an exotic car page !
( I guess they think all Ferrari owners have $ )
prob there is scams people, selling parts they do not have our good rules help prevent that picture w/ name/ date so they cannot photoshop someone else's part photo
I got a life coach they make all the decisions for me.i highly recommend them.i have no problems now.enjoy the music my life coach said I should listen to more elvis.
We need more people making decisions for us on what is good or bad in our adult life.
When an audio thread becomes a soapbox for personal attacks that have nothing to do with the topic, I'm thankful for a moderator. I don't view it as a "threat to free speech". All too often, these days, the term "free speech" is incorrectly utilized to describe what is actually "license".
That poster sounds more and more like the member known as wwwrecords from AA where the moderator basically let him do whatever he wanted to.

It's a thankless but necessary job, I served on another site for several years. You can't please everyone, you can only do your best to cater to the majority. To the Mods; thank you for the time you spend on here and keep up the good work.
