Well said and a fair request! ^

The expectations on the volunteer moderators at FT seems to be on the rise (PM this, post that, step carefully here, etc) but there doesn't seem to be a corresponding effort on the part of the participants in managing content or their posts (placing it in the right forum, doing their own searches, using the bad post button, posting and reposting the same stuff all over, etc). Participants need to also do their part when contributing to FT and not expect the moderators to pick up all the slack. This is a community not a school room. (NOTE: this is not directed at any individual(s) its a general opinion on what's been happening at FT)

I appreciate the time you and your fellow moderators donate to FT!
