You run the way you want to and I'll run the way I want to. I'm entitled, just as you are. Whether or not I actually get the votes, I'm running the campaign I want and will not be shamed into turning into every other candidate. Just like the signature below says....

It's astute politically--the anti-moderation platform has been historically fruitful.
I guess I don't understand the point: you have the guy who is ultimately responsible for accepting or rejecting anything the Talkboard says saying thusly:
YMMV, as always.

Nobody's suggesting that. By why run on an issue that you (nor anyone else running) can do a whole lot about?

I don't pretend to be able to read the tea-leaves any better than anyone else, but there just might be something to be inferred from that statement.
YMMV, as always.

I really honestly dont think Randy would have a problem with that, nor would the moderators themselves. And I certainly think the posters would really, really appreciate it.

So if I complain about someone do I have to do it in the open and expect all the repiles to be in the open then? When discussing if someone should be stopped from using FT should all this be posted for everyone to see?
Nah I dont think so, you can cause just as many if not more problems with things being to open.

But as I say above, better defining all forums for all posters (including moderators) is clearly IN the purview of the Talkbaord. And so is esablishing relations with Moderators as TB members attempt to represent the wishes of the posters.

That was mod to poster. Well, really member to member, since we are all members first (mods, TB members, you , etc).
You don't have to be a Talkboard member to contact any mod to discuss such things. It happens (despite what some may think) on a daily basis.
