First of all, thanks for the post. I'm thinking this topic has come up before, re: TS&S. But I need to try and make a little more clear your concerns. Is this about the TS&S forum, or is this about moderators acting like members within the forum and being as aggressive in some topics as other members who are not moderators? The comments so far seem to focus on the TS&S forum and I'm just a little confused as why you thought it necessary to bring non-forum moderators in this. Seems to me the topic could have stood alone by itself.
Anyway, let's close this for now until the OP and I can exchange PMs to clarify what this topic is about, the TS&S forum, or moderators acting like members.
Thanks and we'll get back to the topic as soon as I hear from the OP as to exactly the topic is.
