I would like to be a mod because I spend a lot of time here, but I think I will be too sensitive for the job. If members have a go at me or insult me, I will get upset, because I don't have the mental capability to ignore insults. If I'm insulted, it hurts my ego and ruins my whole day. Good news, ... |

Fingers crossed, I really hope things get better for you, I can understand the kind of hell you've been living in for so long from personal experience. |

IsabellaLinton : I've had similar experiences and would be very interested in hearing an answer. League_Girl : I can relate to what you say too, which is why so many people complained both about the rules being very vague in places, but mostly about the moderation process being completely opaque th... |

Regarding the "dangers" of enforcing the rules: I certainly wasn't suggesting a dogmatic approach. What I meant is that we (or the mods) should be careful with cherry-picking who we make allowances for and who gets treated more harshly or taking a personal or ideological dislike to someone... |

this old fart is not even " unconventionally attractive " anymore so i get even less unconditional positive regard by people in general. lookism is a very powerful thing in western culture. It really sucks, but where you live can make a huge difference, both in regards to how you look or ... |

"Deadwood" was shockingly good. I mean, I cannot stand Westerns, but it was just so....majestic at times. That poor priest losing his mind, the epic street fight...there were so many "10/10" episodes! I can't stand Westerns either: Deadwood, aside from the fantastic acting and w... |

I still see this as a moderation problem - the user problem developed from it, as a natural consequence.
I thought some new people were supposed to join the mod team? |

It has always been a peeve of mine that either the same rules should apply to everyone, everywhere, and all of the time, or they should never apply to anyone at all. It's exactly as simple as this. And if it was enforced, this whole thread wouldn't have been necessary. It only took 50+ pages to n... |

My experience: if you pay attention to the personal style, preferences and body type/size of the person the gift is for, they really appreciate both the gift and the gesture. Some of my wife's favourite lingerie and clothes were picked by me.
Rule of thumb with any gift: prioritise what they like. |
