The who should be Mod and Mod Issues Thread

[The Nature Boy 4,224]

I missed it. Was it obviously not family friendly or was it one that most people wouldn't even notice? Serious question as it appears that common, everyday words are no longer permitted. I think it's important for the few of that remain to have complete understanding. Much of what has suddenly become not family friendly wouldn't even raise an eyebrow in a first grade classroom. Clarification would be appreciated. Thank you.

exactly. None of us have a clue what content did not meet the standard. How are we to know what not to do?

I've got the whole thing recorded if you would like to review it. Working for the NSA has its perks...

I third that! H*** I was placed on *********** twice just due to poor spelling. They think every *** **** and ****** is a perfect spellar?

Totally agree on that point, but don't go hoping to make sense of what the mods have been doing here the last couple months.

edit. just checking current filters.

We should just know. Don't post anything except the weather, and even then, don't discuss it or anything. If someone says it's snowing in Quito, Ecuador, don't argue, just believe them. Ditto if they say it's 90 at the South Pole. DO NOT post anything political, religious, or anything that may even remotely imply reproduction. Babies and families are not family friendly in the new, family friendly atmosphere here at VJ.

And don't forget the "mustn't offend the sensibilities" clause that's being used as a catch-all to boot folks.

I think you've been spending too much time on the farm.

why on earth would anyone want to be a mod?

Long time no read. How have you been?

[natty bumppo 297]

been busy

the twins are now 6 !!!

where has the time gone??

between the boys, isa, the house, and work ... i sometimes manage to chisel out a few minutes for myself.

so ... how the heck have you been?

[spookyturtle 9,466]

We can't joke around in this forum, but posts like this are the norm in the upper forums. It's ok to be unfriendly, as long it's in a family friendly way.

to the OP: the US of A is entitled to make its own laws and policies....period.

so many 'experts' from countries that have barely achieved third world status....has anyone from our government contacted any of you to come and take over our legislative process? No? hmmm....that is not surprising.

Six already. The time sure does fly doesn't it? They grow up so fast. Have you all been watching Brazil in the World Cup? Have you had time to do any shooting lately? I'm doing pretty good. Still here at VJ, maybe that's a bad thing.

time flys is an understatement ...

was trying to finish up the lawn before game time today. didn't make some of the earlier part of the game.

heard brasil score (i was in the front yard, lawn mower idling, and wearing ear protection). knew it was time to take a break ... RFN

getting a little range time. kinda hard when the boys want to be with me and they are not quite ready for this experience.

i have managed to introduce them to quality home boiled maple syrup, and other things from the northeast. we get care packages from family.

have one local DD (it's our once every 2 week guy thing) ... when we arrive the manager knows the boys want a small hot chocolate ... with 5 ice cubes

how is your range time?

staying busy?

I haven't got a lot of range time lately. There's always something to do, it never ends. We watched the game, it was a real nail biter. Those shoot outs kill me, but Neymar got the 3rd goal and the last Chile kick hit the top crossbar and it was all over. Are you still in Texas?
