    not saying that just saying that if you were a guest it doesn't fit in with the fact that you are very opinionated! and for some one with that sort of opinionated personality, you would have piped up along time ago! ... thats all I'm saying ...

    Fulv, I think you are being unfair using such big words at this time of the night (first sentence )

    The trouble is Fulv that I regularly get feedback from people I know or meet who either haven't joined or have withdrawn and the overwhelming reason from those who have informed me relates directly to periods of time when trolls have been in full flight.

    It is not generally the content or opinions within a post that will see it gain the attention of any of the Mods, it is the abusive language or tone that it is set at.

    The standard I have set for myself and to moderate others to is if you are not prepared to say it to someone's face down at the local then don't say it here.

    I have no problem with banter and pulling the piss, but we all know that is not what is always going on at times here, especially when there is overwhelming evidence from other sources on the net of them bragging about their putting us in our place and extreme bad mouthing of individuals here, while keeping up a facade of fun and games banter to our faces.

    There is this theme of just ignoring it in threads but the problem is when it is at it's worst you would never find a thread more than three posts long to read before it got taken over.

    It's very rare that I have challenged anyone's post content as a moderator in terms of "guarding our ideas" etc but I feel I have the right as with anyone else here to put my opinion out there. And if I start a debate/argument as an ordinary Member I have never in my memory reverted to big brother Moderator to get the upper hand.

    At the end of the day I am proud of this site and being a part of the management of it and as a Mod I will do what I feel is fair and reasonable in protecting its reputation so I may remain proud to be associated with it.

    Also in regards to peer moderation, I think it would be a good idea so long as it is thought out. Idealy I would think that the power someone had would be equivalent to the status. ie (number of posts x months as a member)/1000)/number of smotes)x1% of the number of praises if it is greater then 1) would equal the percentage of the yellow card

    so my percentage would be 44.88%
    fulvio would be 64.30%
    Flame thrower would be 77.10%

    or something along those lines where the number of posts and time as a member are taken into account as well as the number of smotes and praises from fellow TWFers or something. just my 2 bobs worth

    Burgs I love you

    using my formula you would have a percentage of 788.61% ... but your a moderator so I guess that explains it!

    You may need a little lay down now Lonz
    I agree if it is of the peer style then a certain weighting would be required.

    An Internet troll, or simply troll in Internet slang, is someone who posts controversial, inflammatory, irrelevant or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum or chat room, with the intention of provoking other users into an emotional response[1] or to generally disrupt normal on-topic discussion.[2]


    case in point anyone?
