Interesting your comments are now gone...

Those who complain should go hang out on bimmerforums for a while.

I'd say they pretty much have their sh!dt together.

We're making things difficult for them lately.
But all will soon return to normal, I hope

Both those guys impress me with their evenhanded fairness. No way I'd have their job. I'd be yanked out of there in a day and Wayne would probably ban me permanently.

There - I've done the sycophant bit; not that it'll do me any good because I'm sure I'm on both of the poopy head's lists to stay.

I say they've done a LOT to clean out the place, with more work ahead. Still, amazing progress.

I actually did edit them out myself.

What I said was that I have met both of them, and felt they were overwhelmed; then I thought better of that and tried to delete the thread. I guess once someone else posts, the original poster cannot delete it anymore.

Pelican seems to go thru these cycles. I have never gotten used to them.

My question is will any level of standard or interpretation thereof satisfy such a diverse group of individuals.

You'd think with all the money the poopy-heads get paid to monitor this forum they'd do a better job

Seriously, I really don't think the problem lies with the moderators.
The inmate are getting a bit too familar with the board and it is breeding contempt.
Then they act all surprised when they get their hand slapped.

the moderators are doing just fine even though the moderator/troll ratio is way out of balance.

Well, I haven't been breeding with anyone on the board!

Just sayin.
