Nowhere in there do members have the right or obligation to ban or timeout members. That right or obligation is Randy's.
Moderators had a great forum for discussing moderation. Some moderators began discussing non-moderation issues in that forum. That seems to me to be a problem.

Perhaps I should provide an example of what can happen to a society or organization (government) when people make a habit of threatening people's jobs on a regular basis. Note that I am not endorsing the contents, racism, or viewpoint contained on this website.

Can't we all just get along, drop the cliques and grudges, stop pestering Randy to join "our" side, and desist from trying to have the last word?
Peace be with you.
