The TalkBoard DOES NOT OVERSEE OR MAKE POLICY FOR THE MODERATORS. Not today. Not any day. It's not happening. Complaints/Questions/Concerns about such things go to Randy or to the other responsible parties at WebFlyer.
If anyone wishes to keep asking us about moderation policies, you might as well also ask us why your upgrades didn't clear. Or why your stocks are doing poorly. Or what we're going to do about Iraq.

Well, if this isn't a TalkBoard issue, should it have gone under "Suggestions" instead?
And I disagree that newbies "breathe new life" into FlyerTalk. Quite the opposite. They tend to post repetitive stuff -- the same old-same old -- because they don't realize what has already been posted over the last six-plus years. They tend to THINK they are posting brand-new, wonderful stuff until they start to discover the wealth of info that is here.
Anyhow, could someone move this whole thread into Suggestions, if that is where it belongs?

Things like this happen to everyone (even me) so why single out one group? You can a) Direct them to the correct thread or b) Ignore it and move along
Can't we all just get along...newbies and old timers???
