    No bias here, in fact I would say just the opposite, but then whats the old saying, give em an inch and they'll take (maybe should read expect) a mile, there's a fine line between use and abuse.

    I voted NO.

    I am not aware of any post of mine being moderated/deleted. My humour, at times, can be a little obtuse but not harmful.

    I've heard others "speak" of posts/threads modified/deleted but I haven't come across any.

    In the time I have been a member of this forum I have always been made to feel welcome, have been given assistance with regards the questions I posed and have enjoyed the to and fro even though some of the "discussions" can get a little "heavy" at times.

    I don't think I am alone in what I have stated above - if this is due to biased moderation - then bring it on.

    Regards,
    Bob

    OK, we're going down that track are we.



    I'm perfect, never had a post modified deleted or even looked at.

    Well you would hardly come across them now would you...they've been deleted!

    Maybe the Mods could leave a mark every time they deleted a post....kinda like X marks the spot of where it used to be. Just so we dont tread on it.

    At this point I would post a pix of a pig flying but the last time I did some one deleted it.

    Not suggesting for one moment that I have ever reached any stage of perfection in anything.

    I'm just having a little difficulty seeing what the problem is

    - read the rules - I understand it is not a democracy - and I choose to participate.

    I am encouraged to participate within the scope of the rules.

    I also am aware that if I overstep the bounds that I will be censured.

    All I was suggesting is that, I don't think I have overstepped the mark.

    My contribution to this thread was not to have a go at nor support any particular poster or position.

    Regards,
    Bob

    I used to be conceited but now I'm perfect.
    Most people who think know that I'm crazy.

    So if I go and delete my name put there by persons unknown, my name WILL be there.

    Of all the posts I submited I have had one deleted and understandably so - well i was a bit embarrassed that my humour could have been seen as offensive.

    I don't think it is a question of whether or not the mods are biased because to be human is to be biased. But rather are the mods either consistant or reasonable.

    Each mod is different from the next so consistency is not exactly the same but generally in the same flavour and I definitely believe the mods are reasonable.
