I think has been addressed many times, but to recap for you. This forum is not about moderation and i think your post shows why.

There are 10,122 threads in MilesBuzz! accounting for 127,997 individual posts. I'm sure it would take me more than a lifetime to try and read each one of those posts to determine what you are talking about. It seems to me the problem is that a few members are misbehaving, but it is apparent you don't see it that way - the fault seems to be with these darn moderators. Here's the pitmus test, suppose i fired a moderator for this, does the matter of the two members or more disrupting FlyerTalk exist or not? Chances are it does. Wit hthat said, it seems to me we might start with pointing out the members who are misbehaving, not faulting the moderators. They are not paid, they are volunteers and for all I and you know - may be away this holiday season.

Here's the rules again: this forum is not for crying out how the moderators aren't doing their job. In fact, with the information here, even i couldn't do anything to help you.

Address an email to myself expalining the situation, the URL's involved and the members. Just pointing out that mods are not doing their job - their job is not to be a referee, it's really to help members get more out of this Web site.

I just checked all my email and there is not email from anyone crying out about a situation of a thread in MilesBuzz! I just don't know where to start.

more info please! and to the right resources.
