I keep reading this recurring theme of "Mods need to be accountable..." which frustrates me somewhat. There appears to be this insinuation that we aren't.

The last time I checked we were volunteers. And we volunteer to Moderate on a IBB, which at the end of the day is a part of a large, online business. Designed to generate a profit.

The business gets to make the rules. It's their gold. I have no problem with that. If I did, I wouldn't have volunteered in the first place. Or if the rules or environment changed and I didn't agree with them (or it), then again, free to leave.

My personal opinion is that I am accountable to Carol and ultimately to IBB. No one else.

Koko, as hard as you are campaigning for your cause (crusade) and I admire you for it, I disagree with just about everything you're fighting for.

Because as far as I'm concerned, if I had any influence over IB, I'd campaign with equal voracity to eliminate TB tomorrow. Pointless existence if you ask me...
