And you prove this by not moderating in the echo, as any moderator worth
his salt would do. Instead you tell fibs like the above.

Moderating in the echo brings the moderating to the attention of all
others and seeing it, they will usually tone down their rhetoric,
depending on the 3rd party's reaction. Sometimes it takes more than
once, but it does work.

Of course, moderating can't be used as a club these days as much as many
would like to see (CUT HIS FEED!) ... that just doesn't happen these
days when one can find a feed to any echo, anywhere, no questions
asked. Especially in the case of one individual who will ignore all
negative input and carry on.

A moderator has to be more diplomatic in moderating such that he is able
to negotiate a message that can jolt the moderated into the realization
that he's doing himself and the others here more harm than good.

I proved that way back when by disallowing discussion of certain topics
and the moderating received in the echo by those who needed it, in
FN_SYSOP. Instead of complying with that moderation method, the person
who needed moderating more than anyone else (Dossche) refused to comply
and thereupon set out to upset the apple cart and you have what was the
result of that episode, here.

So what we have here is a result of that person's inability to tone down
his own rhetoric and you're the recipient of a NO-MODERATOR title
because of him.

We all know that you, Dossche, Vlist and a host of others from Z2 have
nothing better to do than bash the USA in the name of "We rolled over
when you (Z1) were the majority, so now it's our turn. We are at War!"

And before you bring it up: pissant little country, etc., has been
discussed and apologized for, yet that rant continues because YOU bring
it up.

Have a day on me, they're shorter and shorter the older you get.
