Mods aren't gods.  They're just there to help keep the peace and keep things
going, that's all.  However, a lot of mods (to include me, since I moderate 13
Fidonet echoes as well as run a full-time BBS) don't get any respect from
fellow sysops or *Cs these days.  I'm lucky because I've made a lot of friends
in the right places and things happen.  Not everyone has done so and when they
need help, they call on me.  I will help as much as I can.  I am a former RC
(RC11) in Fidonet, so I know the rules quite well.

What you don't know, Ed, is that I've helped Gary with contacting you and other
people in Fidonet about some of your users.  So, I feel I have a right to call
you on it, in public, where people in this echo, who are tired of your users'
shenanigans, don't mind if I say something.  If you're gonna bring it up in
public, then go off spewing vulgarities at someone (which was CLEARLY
OFF-TOPIC), you should expect to be throttled.

You and a lot of other sysops, including me.  It doesn't take too many skills
to run a board, but it takes a lot of skills to not have people jumping your
ass because your users let loose in echoes under pseudonyms.  Not just in this
one, but in ALL-POLITICS too.

We don't need these jerkoffs making Fidonet worse than it already is.

Now I'm gonna be good and drop the subject.  If you want to talk more, there's
netmail.  I've worn this thin already by responding to you in here.

Later,
Sean
