Only in England iirc but they're called fags, not faggots.

NO lie!
it took me 1.5 hrs to get home teshi...( from Kiddie corner of the Milwaukee county Jail) to the Franklin/Oak creek area...normally a 15 minute drive at best..
even with 4 wheel drive and traction control on I was still all over...

You are wrong Tas. It is a reflection of the integrity of specific staff members when it happens to ANYONE. It doesn't matter whether or not it is Christian doing it to another Christian or not. No-one should be receiving special treatment from staff. It does happen but let me assure you it shouldn't be happening to anyone. I won't even go into how arrogant it is to think that Christians should receive better treatment than the rest of the members.

flesh99, I have a question. If mod actions are essentially team actions, then an abusive mod action would reflect a problem within a team, no? Not just the individual staffer? The rest of the team would also be complicit?

If all mod decisions are team decisions, then the rest of the team should serve as a check on a renegade/corrupt staffer, should it not?

That's the theory; how's the practice?

It is makes you feel any better, I was going back to my hometown this weekend to visit family, and I as it stands right now I am stranded. There is ice on the road everywhere. I am surprised I made it to work in one piece today.

I get to try and make it out of town tomorrow. I sure hope I get to!
