Clipped wings

As an involved party, I would like to know exactly what was involved in the change of guard with this forum. Specifically what happened with Zelda being moderator, and why she was removed and the now duel moderator system is now in place.

Please explain this

Love,
Gen. George Washington

Also a spelling out of the "New World Order" is requested. There have been references to guidelines but these have never been writ down for review.

Two moderators were always the plan. Because Zelda had to deal with moving from one country to another, someone else was needed in her absence. Also, the shared leadership keeps things even. No one person has full control. Whatever you see one of us do, the other has been involved in the decision making process, though may not be unable to post it at the time. As good friends, Zelda and I are a team. That's how it will stay.

Does this satisfy your question?

There is a thread specifically titled:

As George Washington, I'd think you'd understand the multi-branch government system...after all, you helped design it, and were the first test pilot of it.

No, two people have full control.
Two totally biased, power-hungry, unfair, make-up-rules-as-they-go-along Nazis.

355, you've had every opportunity to be treated fairly...yet you refuse it. There is no bias. I asked you to take personal issues off the board, you won't. You've been asked to cool it. You won't. And speaking of "fair", do you honestly think what YOU have been doing to cause the need for moderators is "fair" to us? You come to a peaceful board and start a fight. You harass. You disrupt. Can you honestly think about fairness when you can't treat others the way you supposedly want to be treated?

Zelda & I do not have total control, by the way. We answer to the ultimate authority on this board. And HE was the one who said that there should be NO personal attacks, which you are mighty happy to continue doing.

As for "power hungry", that's a laugh. What do we need power for? Zelda is busy moving, and I'm working on my family. Why don't you try asking us why we said YES when we were ASKED to do this? Better yet, ask Craig. HE approached us! We CARE about this board. You don't. You have NO idea why we chose to do this, and you're acting too selfish to find out.

Once again, I will say that none of this would have happened if you would have just played nice. Stop trying to blame other people for the "treatment" you're receiving. It falls on deaf ears.

By the way, I know the answer to those puzzles, but I'm being nice & leaving them up. You aren't as smart as you think you are, since I was contacted the DAY you put them up about what they really said.

Like I said, if you have a complaint, take it to PMs. Snide remarks and attacks will be deleted. END of conversation.

I fully and utterly suport Moon in whatever she does. We were both apointed to cross check each other. She unfortunately has taken most of the flak lately as I have been in the process of moving. Hopefully by next week I will have internet access in my room again. Then we will be sharing the work load.

Take this out of the public forums. If there are problems with any moderators or users, email me with it.

This goes for all parties involved.

Well done Craig.
