As long as you are willing to put up with all of this, I will continue to be a regular!

all the best

I hope I am speaking for all the moderators when I say your post is very much appreciated. A post like yours doesn't come very often and it makes all the crap we put up with worth it when we know at least some people appreciate what we do.

 

I, for one, have tolerated years of complaints, put-downs, accusations, flame posts, hate posts, name calling, hate Email, hate PMs, threats, and even blackmail attempts. Meanwhile I'm still here and I don't plan on going anyplace. If some people dislike this board, my moderating style, or me personally, tough shit. Go elsewhere.

You bloody hypocrite. When I posted my criticism two days ago, your reaction was:

One of these days you'll have the whole board to yourselves.

Oh really! Who about the 56 posters who have appeared in this thread in April (so far) who did not appear in January. That makes 132 separate posters over just 2 months. Quite a number compared to any other Board I have seen. Clearly time for trolls to go back and bury their heads back in their holes.

Looking at DanT's posts here, one of them stated that he only posted using this name on other boards and mentioned Bath-Stop so I looked over there. Guess what? His total of posts there is also small and also several of his posts are being critical of GayButton and this board. I am not sure why he has a hard one for GayButton but it is pretty obvious to me, GayButton called him out right! Great job GayButton. You are great at finding the Trolls. Thank you for all your wonderful work with this site over the years. You have been amazing and I appreciate your contribution, your excellent restaurant reviews and your quick ability to spot a full troll fast.

 

PS DanT: I hope you notice that while we know who you are, we have not banned you, put you on moderated status or even gotten nasty. I know you can contribute to this board in a positive way, if you so choose. My odds are that you have other motivations but only time will tell. In any case, welcome back!

You bloody hypocrite.

Yep. That's me. Absolutely right. A bloody hypocrite . . . with real blood too.

 

Great job GayButton.

How dare you write something positive about me! DanT won't like it. Come to think of it, he won't be alone in that . . .

I think we are giving too much time to DanT.

I'll give him just a bit more to remind him that name calling is against posting rules here. "You bloody hypocrite." Gooooooooood. With that he gave me license to put him on moderated mode any time the whim strikes me, or strikes any other moderator for that matter. Just think, if any of us do put him on moderated mode he'll never know which one of us did it.

OK Dan T. Nice picture. Which one is you?
