Before this thread is closed because it has become quite confrontational, I need to make one comment.
Moderators are members just like everyone else and do NOT give up their right to comment as they see fit on any topic. In fact, we are encouraged by the Admin to participate as much as we care to. We do not choose to put that "Moderator" label next to our name - it comes with the territory.
We mods, as a group, are here because we were asked to help. We volunteer our time to help make the forums a pleasant place to visit and to help enforce the forum rules. We have no particular ax to grind but all have our own personal values and beliefs which may show up from time to time. Non of this however, interferes with our ability to fairly and equally enforce the forum rules that we all agree to when we join.
Sorry to be so long winded but had to clarify about being a mod and making comments in a post. I will leave it open for now but will keep a close eye on it.
