Well, that's you. The CD has never bothered to respond to multiple appeals that I had sent for over a year -- not even the courtesy of an acknowledgment (I've since given up). The moderation was almost enough to drive me completely away, but has also limited me to minimal visits and minimal participation. The tone of FT reflects the tone of the people who run it. It was very, very, very different under Randy and, since his departure, has grown increasingly hostile, cliquish and inconsistent. I still visit because, from time to time, I can still glean valuable information. If FT wants to continue to present itself as a community, it needs to feel like one, and that starts with the CD and the mods.
