To date, i have a single PM from a mod saying that despite something that volunteer read in a thread, the volunteer's experience is that it is posting as usual and the volunteer has not seen anything similar to what was described by your post. As well, the only thread among Mods in their forum is the one started in 2005 which helps Mods detect when members are making posting runs for CC or OMNI permissions, but that is nothing new and actually nothing out of the ordinary.

So, based on my personal PM/email and topic buzz among our volunteers, things rather seem normal around here. As for the heated barbs, well, i have seen some of that in the TalkBoard Topics thread, like this one, but really, haven't they ben heated bards about Virgin America forum and other topics? Again, nothing out of the ordinary here!
