NO! We are adults and should behave like adults. A bit of common sense would go and awful long way. Gerry :-)) |

Yes - from what I've seen on GR so far they're definately needed. ALL bingo sites have them in the chat rooms and it works well. Mary |

All this site needs is members to follow the rules. NO LIVING RELATIVES PUT ON THIS SITE WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And common sense to remove them when asked to. If you do not follow the rules I say BAN them. Sorry but thats my opinion. |

Yes, it should be given to members on a randon basis, ''are you prepared to be a mod this week??'' they should then be able add some sort of hidden note to the thread for a GR mod to impartially examine and then action or not - That is actually what is suposee to happen now - by mailing abuse sadly the the GR bod has other responsibilties.It just need ONE person at their end.Until now i guess they haven't felt the need to appoint someone |

I'm a mod elsewhere (I wouldn't want to be one here, so this isn't a pitch for the job). It isn't that easy and I'm sure we don't always get it right but we try to talk to at least one other mod before deleting a thread or message. Some are easy, if the rules are broken they go. Others are more difficult but we err on the side of caution and trust that the members know that we are trying to do our best, even if we don't always get it right. We have an advantage over GR in that we have IP addresses so multiple membership isn't possible. Gwynne |

Official, unbiased, independant, and ANONYMOUS, very difficult, I should think to get all those parameters together,, and you would then get the '' They took out MY thread, Why not His/Hers'' comments. but most things CAN be made to happen.. Bob |

Yes to independent moderator/s But it will never happen, and if it did, im sure Gr wouldnt let us know anyhow. It certainly wouldnt be a case where moderators also use the boards or indeed the site. Ive seen on a couple of other smaller sites, (not the other side site btw) lots of brown nosing, everyone wants to be a moderators mate...and visa versa.......that alone can influence decisions....OK on a tiny by comparison site as there are less members to moderate, but not on such a large one as this Elaine x |
