If you or any other TB members have problems w/ the separation of church/state (ie, TB/Mods), then the appropriate thing to do would be to PM the CommunityDirector.

Cheers.
I wasn't specifically speaking of moderation. If FT wants those two things to be separate and distinct (TB and moderation), then okay. But I think there are a myriad of other topics that may warrant discussing until TB is blue in the face. If authority has solid logic for why a topic is off limits, fine. But until then, I think TB owes membership persistence with respect to constructive recommendations. Further, I think TB ought to demonstrate some creativity and get ahead of the curve on some things that would make FT an even better place.
